Love the videos, too. Like your drawings, they are something quite simple, turned beautiful by sheer good taste power.
One question: how do you make this "pastel-like" or "dry-brush" marks, using brush and ink? Seemed to me you were using pen-brushes in this drawing. Is it possible to do "dry" brush strikes with these pens?
Thanks Mauro! Yes, brush pens and paper with a rough surface-watercolor paper. Hold the pen at an angle and the 'tooth' of the paper does the work for you.
Matt, you are perfection. Congrats!
