Description Pure as we begin.
Move by will alone.
Leave as we come in.
Pure as light return to one.


An unlikely pair, thanks to my lovely man.
Eels, candles and a hyena.

I've gathered a small collection of ink pens, bought two Faber-Castells, medium and fine, but even the fine is too damn big. A few years back I scored a pack of Prismacolor liners, 03 and 005. Probably 99% of this was done with the 005 which took EONS but results in so many delicious details.

Need to do more research, but I'm dying to get some of these black&white designs printed on comfy t-shirts and some canvas bags. Soon soon.

A hyena, and an eel! Two animals I really like! (Well, technically, I like all animals, but I commend you for drawing a depicting some less popular ones that need more love!)

Thanks! I've always felt drawn to those under-appreciated critters, they need love too!

Exactly how I feel.   I write a lot of poems, stories, and drawings for such creatures... Shoot, I should do one for eels! I'm going to put that on my list of things to do now.

I actually had some of the same problems while using ink pens by faber castell as even the smallest one was stiill too big to do any little details. So I might try to get hold on some of these prismacolor liners if possible. Thanks for the hint

I find that my smallest Faber-Castell is okay now that it has dried out a little, but when it was new the lines were still too thick. And that prismacolour that I had was amazing, ridiculously fine. Yay for details!

The only reason in my limited animal knowledge on why I can recognize that the snake-things are eels, and the dog thing is a hyena, is because of The Lion King, and The Little Mermaid....


I'm so sorry...
