Drawing With A Dip Pen

Welcome to Draw Tip Tuesday!

Today, I'm using that same reference photo of the bananas again, of our brush pen exercise a couple of weeks ago. This time, we'll use a different drawing tool.
We'll use the "blob" technique again, putting paint on paper first in kind of a sloppy way (great to get over the fear of the blank page - just doing it, quickly). Then we'll see how much information we want to add with line.
While I talk you through the process, I'll also share my thoughts about how to develop a style as an artist (spoiler alert: you already have a style!).

Materials used in this video:
-Watercolors
-Waterbrushpen
-Dip Pen, chrome Zebra g-nib
-India Ink (Sennelier)

Your assignment this week:
Explore and have fun drawing with a dip pen. If you don't have a dip pen, find something else with ink; I'm pretty sure you'll have something suitable in your art supplies stash. Or maybe even dip a skewer into a bottle of ink and see if you can draw with that. Why not?
You can download the reference photo below if you like, but it will be more fun to draw something that is yours.
