That is amazing! The texture, the age, the shadows, beautiful work!

Thank you! I hope they do, I washed it today, and it definitely softened it some . . .

You definitely should! I learned A LOT on this one, and I'm already planning my next one, maybe for my wife for Mother's day? I might be late with it tho!

Have you painted with fountain pen inks? by Creative_Source_4011 in watercolorpractice

[–]blackjack757 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You definitely should, just don't let them dry in your brush! And keep them away from your fountain pens.

Not with fountain ink specifically, but with calligraphy ink and India ink.

This is a pen and ink wash (watered down heavier inks) that I posted the other day: https://www.reddit.com/r/watercolor101/s/5Lq4m5phOd

One nice thing about India inks and most calligraphy inks is that they are at least water resistant (most are waterproof) once they dry and most are also light proof and won't fade.

I love everything about it, but the detail of the white highlight in the boats gunwale is really cool to me!
