Every so often I like to try something new and outside my comfort zone. I compare this to a classical musician playing pop music, or an athlete trying a new form of exercise. Each time the boundaries are pushed there is an opportunity for learning. I love pen and ink work and used to illustrate guide books so spent a lot of time using this technique. Pen and ink allows fine detail, but there is little room for mistakes, so it really does focus the mind, especially the more complex the drawing and the nearer completion the work is. This was a small work based on the the English countryside; a place I love and is filled with mystery and magic.
