Art Stuff 94– Pen & Ink: Lines and Dots!
This three minute Art Stuff video takes a look at working with Pen & Ink to create linework and dots in an art design. Part one: The paper used for inkwork and the Micro pens used for linework.
Examples of artwork using lots of dots and very little watercolor.

Next Ep. Part 2, The pen I use to make dots and the current pen & ink drawings being worked on with dots. Lots of dots.
These pen & ink drawings, when finished are destined for the November 2nd, 2023, Solo Art Exhibit at Katsea Gallery.
Thumbnail drawings for the art show
What’s on my mind, Craig?
Well, for the Nov. art show at katsea gallery, one of the projects being worked on for display are 24 Thumbnail sketches.
First I must do the dot work before adding watercolor or color pencil or combinations of each.
This is one of the 24 prepped for adding color.
Size of outlined box is 2 1/4 x 2 1/4 inches.

The November Solo Art Exhibit
Five months to go to the day. All art related postings going forward will be directed to the building of my November 2, ‘23 solo art exhibit katsea gallery. This also includes the YouTube video content of the Art Stuff videos. It is a large scale project that includes the ‘Hauptcee Haupt’ paintings, my own new paintings, new pen & ink/watercolors, new Thumbnail drawings, and seldom (if ever) seen artworks.
Also a progress display of my second ArtStory book that highlights the prep work for a March/April Kickstarter campaign for those that want to be included in the story text.
