Good morning my loves! Please buckle up and get some snacks cause this month we have another long sketchbook tour. A few notes on this sketchbook tour

• I started experimenting with dip pens. After watching so many manga documentaries, I got curious about inking with dip pens and I got a few nibs to try. I bought the Deleter ink and 3 nibs: G-Pen, Tachikawa and Maru Pen <-- this one, the Maru Pen, is my fav

• You'll see all the tests I did when I was trying to find the MUJI hexagonal dupe (my favorite pen but was discontinued last year). I think the Pentel Slicci is a pretty close dupe!

• Also you'll see some personal stuff, like how I've been feeling lately, dealing with depression and all of that, hope that it's not too TMI

• I you see a face but can't find the reference, most likely is from the Instagram account Humans of NY <-- REALLY recommend this account if you need/want to practice portraits

thank you so so much for allowing me to take time out of my day to draw and practice. This is ALL thanks to YOU guys : .. )

Have a lovely rest of your Tuesday aheaaad, all my love from gloomy Brooklyn!
