Drawing Amsterdam Dailies, Day 246 - 20 June 2021

Houses on a Curve with Houseboat in Front

 
Drawing Amsterdam Dailies, Day 246. Progress was made even though my pen was not happy. My favorite and most reliable pen over the years has been a Platinum Carbon fountain pen. It would always work and had a really fine line. Somewhere along the line, however, something has changed in their design. The nibs are fatter and I have a lot of trouble with the ink not flowing reliably either. The ink not flowing made today’s drawing more frustrating than enjoyable. Something to figure out before tomorrow’s session as the inking must go on! 🖋  #amsterdam🇳🇱 #housesofamsterdam #amsterdamhouses #canalhouses #creativeprocess #dailies #dailydrawing #drawingdaily #traveljournal #wip
