Ink, gold pigment

My first ink painting 🤓 And guess what, my first try at Inktober. It's not a drawing, but whatever 😅

I used some regular black ink from Koh-I-Noor and some gold pigment (AquaBronze) from Schmincke.

The watermark is different because I have taken a photo and have added it on my phone. The scan just wasn't right. 😶

This is beautiful! So painterly; it really reminds me of japanese ink art

Thank you   
The lines were bigger than expected, but this happens if you use the worst brush you can possibly find. so yeah...it is painterly since I used the brush

I got some clues now about the ink...how it works...it's interesting.

I have already made my 2nd one...needs to dry though ...tomorrow I will add again some gold pigment and upload it

I have some light issues. I start to paint very late and to take photos under the artificial light it's a no no...it looks so ugly. So I will try to take a photo the next day, in the day time. It's better to be 1 day behind, then to have some weird photos. I'm not good with photographing artworks   

I did hurry with this one (bird). Did made also 2 little videos on how I added the gold pigment. 

Just for fun, but will upload on IG tomorrow    being an artist is a full time job...beside a real one

I know that feeling about taking photos under artificial light >

About a month ago I invested in a lamp that emits light the exact same tone as natural light and it was super worth it!

What?! I need this too.
Can you tell me which one...a link maybe (please, if possible )
Today it's rainy...and f* I missed that perfect light.  I have a photo, but well, could be better

This is the one I got (which I'm very happy with) but you might want to do research to find a light that suits your needs best!

Wow It looks so good...the way the light shines on the table...and soooo adjustable

But veeeery expensive for me...but but...I think I'll search for a similar LED light, maybe smaller. I have a small table

Great investment you have made! Worth every amount
Your artworks and eyes deserve an awesome light source

Thank you for the info. I saved it (the link^^)...for future researches

You're welcome!
Yep, I saved up a bit for it T^T

I read also that you can buy similar light bulbs for pretty cheap from a hardware store, though I'm not sure what kind of lightbulb.

I think that any LED light is now better then any other light that we used till now. Anything will be better then what I have now...
*shine bright like a diamond*
