I’m truly grateful to have seen so many visitors these past few weeks and I’d like to thank you for supporting my small business…supporting me.

What became of my mark making?
I’ve been enjoying the marks made by using a dip pen and sumi ink. Next I took a wet square brush and pulled it along the ink. For more contrast I brushed the ink on wet into wet. As you’ll see from the video it’s an effective and swift process to capture a moment. By…
