Really enjoying learning from Alphonso Dunn’s book Pen and Ink Drawing. He demonstrates drawing techniques in a way that’s finally clicking into place for me.
So far I’ve mostly been copying his mark making examples straight from the book. I look forward to applying the techniques to my own drawings as I grow in confidence. 😍
