Plates.

Here tried to use wet media in the old sketchbook, where first drawing dated September 1, 1999, assuming we were Upstate, before the school started, at "Yellow Dacha". My daughter was 13 years younger and we didn't have our first dog yet.
Anyway this paper is not good for washes, absorbing every touch like blotting paper. So no-no. May be for pencil sketches? But too bulky for the train.
I drew empty plates with sepia ink and few Kuretake pens and afterwards shoved this sketchbook back into deep shadowy shelve for future experiments.
