Day 2 Sketch a Day

Managed another two sketches today. They only took about 5 - 10 minutes at the most. I continued with the line drawing in ink theme and allowed myself to check my position occasionally on the portrait. The other one was done in my garden using a dip pen and ink and finished with an ink wash.

It amazes me how without looking at the drawing I managed to get the perspective of the arms looking fairly accurate.

The difference with this drawing is that I looked more closely at the drawing rather than letting my hand follow my eyes around the images. Despite adding some tone I think the image is flat and less lively and less appealing than the others.
