(Inktober 2016)
For the Inktober drawing challenge in 2016 I decided to try out a new artistic medium — sumi ink. Many traditional sumi brush paintings draw their themes from nature, so I decided to do daily paintings of the creatures of Como Zoo Park Zoo and Conservatory in Saint Paul.
Each painting was created with sumi ink and a bamboo brush, white gel pen, and black multiliner pens of different sizes.
Time lapse videos of each piece are posted on my YouTube page. Prints of the artwork are available for sale, contact me if you are interested.
