Today’s study: the mangrove tree!
You can see two versions below. One is when I finished the 50 min Sketch Session. The second has another 20-30 min of colored pencil work.
This one was challenging, but very fun. What a tangle!

Trying to draw on this HP Premium paper to see how it feels. Feels good! I started with pencil lines, then inked with a Tombow Fudenosuke. I filled in the background with a Pentel Pocket Brush Pen.

Melissa, this is CRACKING me UP.
I think it’s a great idea to discuss AI and how it fits into the world of art. Like it or not, that Pandora’s Box has been opened, and there’s no undoing it. AI is here and it’s not leaving anytime soon.
Perhaps I’ll start a forum on that subject in particular. I think we as a community can share our thoughts and have respectful discourse!

I agree to a point: it can only be a work of art if there was work involved. If it was done instantly by a machine after a prompt, I don’t consider it art, but an image. There has to be some sweat equity, some effort!

These are so satisfying to look at! I love the color choices, and the rounded corners are excellent.

all too relatable

That’s a super sensible policy on art supplies. They can get pricy and add up, so taking this approach is smart. I have the great luck of being across the street from a used art/craft supply shop and I’m always up in there looking for good deals—and finding them! Nothing better than new art supplies while spending little money

Sounds like you should have a date with those pens sometime soon!

This script killed me dead

This is awesome practice! I, too, enjoy lettering while watching TV and just grabbing random words and phrases out of the air to put to paper. The sloping problem gets me as well! That’s why I always prefer dot grid or square grid notebooks for this type of thing. It really helps keep me on the straight and narrow.

Good suggestions all around! Microns are top-tier drawing/fine line pens, I love them to bits. I’m also a fan of Papermate Flairs.
If you want another idea for a monoline pen that absolutely rules, look for Posca pens. They’re opaque acrylic pens/markers that lay down color beautifully.

Ahhh! I also hate an incomplete progress bar! I’ll make sure Jon sees this so he can tinker with the settings and get this fixed. Thanks, Glenda!

Glad to hear that! I am a big fan of challenges like that, but I’m not always the best at finishing what I start

I’m glad you’re having fun with flourishes and banners, though! It’s so fun to expand your options and play around with those elements.
