A little bit too industrial looking street, Ave V in Brooklyn, but for me car compensate for it, white color of this car was shining like morning sun. I used couple of inks and few Kuretake brush pens.

Corner of Ave T in Brooklyn. I had a lot of fun with ink and few Kuretake pens, my fingers still stained from mixing ink. I like this earthy color and left it airy, not too much contrast and minimum color.

Sort of combination of few things, but merely my feelings when I got this envelope in mail. I used ink, 3 of them, Kuretake brushes and new blue brush Bienfang, and tried Aquaflo brush. I wish my scanner would be twice as big. I should let them know and other couple of innovations I will suggest. Paper didn’t fit properly.

This is store at the beginning of Brighton Beach, corner of Ocean Parkway in Brooklyn. If you are in the mood for nice seafood salad or smoked eel, or caviar, or running out of time and hate shopping this store is good for you. Also here is the cheapest sunflower oil, which I like for salad dressings. Here I used ink, few Kuretake pens and decide to outline with delicious Namiki Falcon pen with sepia ink. I like to distress edges of paper, makes it look more vintage, I think.

Brooklyn, view from the car. I used 2 inks and little help from Kuretake pens for bits of color. Ink spreads on old paper a bit uncontrollable. Interesting that every piece of paper like wall behaves differently, even it seems the same.

Birthday card for my aunt. (In reality she is my mother’s aunt). I wrote nice text inside, outlined letters. She was very happy. She still have my paintings of winter I sent her many years ago. One very famous artist of the beginning of 20 century drew her and her family portraits. Used ink I mixed myself.

Evening meal and menagerie. I drew pizza, (pretty good one, I read about it first on Sheepshead Bites and then decided to try it) and put in a shadow under the table my little menagerie. They didn’t really sit there together all the time, but they were lurking here there, hoping we may drop something really delicious, which smelled so good.
I used 2 inks and few Kuretake pens. -

Spring break. I used newly mixed ink (thinking now I should add more yellow-honey in it, today will try to obtain pipette from one genius architect), Kuretake H2O and green Kuretake Twin pen in Moleskine A4.
