Horse rider.

Experimented with GretacoloR. Texture gives it extra dimension.

Sketches on the tube.

Glued sketches together in PS, so it will remain as a one day of sketching. Feel bad for using Moleskine for such scribblings, but at list I used both sides of pages.

West 10 street.

Greta watercolor briques on handmade  paper and Kuretake 13 brush pen. It is street in Manhattan, nice building, a bit of snow. I am hoping that black ink cartridge in Kuretake will get used up and I can insert converter and mix my own ink, or may be I will use another cartridge and push myself to draw more to exhaust it and insert converter.

Before the snow.

Zabigalafki.

Sketching with triangular pencil.

I walked today on snowy roads, my car still stuck in snow.
I took the lightest bag with me because I want to  draw.  (sorry for the poem, it was just too funny and rhythmic).
With minimum drawing stuff, only 15 pens and pencils in my orange pencil case and brown book, hoping that today would be long waiting, so I can sketch. So here I used this interesting pencil-ruler and touch of white pen.

It was not long waiting at all but still got few sketches and headache.

Triangular pencil.

Portrait of interesting flat triangular pencil-ruler from Japan. On one side it has markings in inches 4 and 5/8, below - in centimeters, probably 12, don't have tape measure in cm. On the other side it has few little stars and says Peace. If I will need to measure something suddenly, while drawing, this would be very useful. Lets say for rendering in scale. I love metal pencils, seems reliable. Today snowed again and transportation didn't work in the morning.

Manhattan again.

Ink on watercolor paper, yellow marker and green water soluble pencil.  I like to draw with antique pencil, it makes me think in centuries, not years.

Fractal design.

Fractals. Would be WebGL3D fractal render.

Really cool.

Scribbling.

I dragged sketchbook through the day abusing  thin paper, scribbling whatever interested me, trying to sketch tiny antique silver pencil, but my telephone conversation took too long, so poor pencil got too much torture. I may have to redraw it in more gentle way.

Antique pencil-knife.

Another little treasure, this time from Indiana. I opened to look at mechanism and was surprised by sharp little knife on the opposite side from the lead. Size is 1.18mm, pretty hard. Length 5 inches. Today was sad day because of what happen in Moscow Airport, people died, people got hurt. When will we feel safe on our little planet?

City.

It was interesting angle to look at the City. I found this faded, I guess,  old piece of paper and tried ink on it. Some sort of nostalgic feeling. I wanted to use hard surface with the clip, don't have anything better than wooden inner part of easel. Comfortable.

Downtown.

Ink and couple of colored pencils on watercolor paper.

Old pencil, made in Japan.

Another old treasure - propelling pencil from Japan. It has interesting back of the pencil, comes off with upside down eraser, locking compartment with extra leads, 1.18mm size. Matte finish helps to hold non slippery pencil comfortably while drawing. If you could say it about pencil, feels so groomed and clean, like it takes showers every day. Underneath sketched with Ebony pencil.

Experimental, to help somebody to post.

Tea.

Sketched cup of tea with french mints. Used ink and touch of Gretacolor Aqua Brique made in Austria. It is watercolor in block form, looks like enlarged toy, but comfortable with water brush. Would be hard to carry around, but good at home. Drew my cat coasters we got in St Augustine, Florida,  in that amazing Cat store.
