This year’s theme: Pen & Ink
This year my Sketchpack is to be all inked drawings
with a bit of water to move ink color.
I almost passed on Di’s challenge but I always have a good time!
Making it simple, and all about the ink, the mark, and water.
MOST are 10-30 minutes; if it took longer it was waiting for ink to dry. No pencil.
Days 1-7 of Sketching Pens!

Past years: 2015: MPF Conservation,
2016: My Practice….
ABOUT SKETCHPACK PROJECT: The project began in 2011 to get folks to draw daily.The sketchpack is a small zigzag journal with two usable sides, allowing one to sketch on both sides of 15 ‘pages’ to complete the month of August. There was much enthusiasm and the project is now repeated yearly in August, with a Facebook page for us to share as we go along. (The page is closed for viewing but you can join to play along!) There is an Exhibition held in October at the Artsauce Studio in Observatory,Cape Town, South Africa of mostly local Sketchpacks!
Drawn on Pentallic folding journal
with pen and ink as named daily + water.

As I was just looking into buying another fountain pen, your post made me smile. A fabulous set of ink paintings.

I love the Pelikan that I have now. Buying a Lamy Safari, mostly for the look 🙂 I didn’t know of that FB group, I will look into it. Thanks!

You are welcome! My husband loves Lamy Safaris, I prefer the Lamy Vista (demonstrator) and the AlStar… I also love that I can change nibs sooooo easily. I can carry them when I am traveling and swap them out in a moment! That is true of Safari as well.
