Happy birthday! Have a wonderful day with people you love! I'm envious of you just because you're in Cork, Ireland, so enjoy being there on my behalf! Your pen and ink drawings are wonderful. I'd love to try pen and ink since I love using felt tip pens and it seems a natural progression. Any tips?

Sorry on the delay, but mad hectic the last few months have had no time for DA. Thanks for the birthday wishes and the kind words!
Any tips for pen and ink? Mmm just throw yourself at it, and realise your going to make aload of mistakes and except that probably most of the original will be poor, you just have to be daring and keep willing to fuck up, eventually you will get good, thats when you slow down and be more careful as you know what works and what doesnt.

That's alright, I totally understand! Thank you for the tips for using pen and ink! I'm quite good at accepting my mistakes but I still want to make less! I guess like you say I just have to experiment!

You could have waited another 8 months
and it would have been relevant again.
I'll take it as a good sign that you're
up to your elbows in Real Life.
