- A PORTRAIT SKETCH, USING A NEW TOOL -

I tried a quick sketch of a good friend and artist Richard LaForti using a new tool: the Micron Pigma Brush Pen. It was challenging and a little harder than using the standard Micron 005 pen that I'm used to. The ink is archival and waterproof when it's completely dry. I did the drawing on a sheet of Strathmore Smooth Bristol paper. (100 lb.) It's a nice smooth surface to work on.

The drawing turned out pretty amazing for being your first time using that type of pen. You are a true artist.
