I was rushing home but couldn’t resist the beauty of this gorgeous car on Brooklyn’s street. Finished at home. Used 2 inks and few Kuretake pens, added Sharpie highlighter for the sign. I never drove such a beauty.

Potato latkes. I made paper a bit crooked and with ripped edges on purpose, to indicate casualty of the moment, to show simple and warm kitchen scene, everyday life, how loving and pleasant every moment of life is, how much I appreciate it. I used 2 inks and few Art and Graphic Twin Kuretake pens on aged watercolor paper.

Red chairs. For couple of days we had lunch here, in New Jersey, looking at tall trees and petting the dog. Beautiful house. I used ink, Kuretake H20 and 2 Twin Kuretake pens for color, red and black.

Ink on watercolor paper. I used Kuretake H2O, touch of red Kuretake Twin brush and outlined letters with Cocoiro Zig Letter Pen. Distressed edges of the paper. It didn’t fit into the scanner so one side is cropped a little bit. This dancing hair emphasize the wind.

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.
