Another wildflower book






This is an unfinished accordion-style book I have been working on. The wildflowers were drawn with a Parallel Pen. As the background was sponged on, and watercolors were added to the flowers, the water-soluble ink I had inside the pen blurred a little. It was an interesting effect, but I think I will try to use a waterproof ink next time.

The parallel pen is a favorite tool of mine. It is easy to bring along when I travel, and I like the way the ink flows evenly from between the blades. I am still pushing its limits, and trying to see just what I can do with it!
