Jul. 27th, 2002 12:30 amActually, I did have an image alight long enough for capture earlier, and even started to slap it down onto my new Fabriano Studio pad, sketching it out lightly in pencil and then outlining it in Higgins black waterproof Calligraphy ink with a Chinese reed dip pen preparatory to having some fun with my watercolors. First I needed to erase the pencil lines. Turns out that a really thick ink line can take much longer to dry than the thinner lines around it. Y’learn something new every day. I already knew that trying to erase a wet ink line was a bad idea, so that’s not a useful lesson.
