VSW: IM Pei, Louvre, France

Posted on November 21, 2022 by dkatiepowellart

Kakimori: OM

Posted on November 19, 2022 by dkatiepowellart

I continue to play with my Kakimori nibbed pens. I now have both the brass and the steel nibs. I love being able to change ink colors quickly by dipping, yet they hold more ink than a dip pen. My … Continue reading →

VSW: Corbusier in Ronchamp, France

Posted on November 16, 2022 by dkatiepowellart

Okay, the first hurdle was spelling it correctly — I am dyslexic and oh-boy this one kept wanting to be turned around! A mix of inks for shadows, and watercolor… and I also removed watercolor from it. I think because … Continue reading →
