I have to say I agree that there is something in the ink sketches that is missing in the graphite ones. I think the ink sketches have a better energy or character. <br /><br />When I sketch in ink, I tend to look longer and draw less. With pencil I jump into the drawing quicker knowing that I can erase any lines that I want to correct. But I think I lose something in the process of correcting. The graphite sketches might be technically more correct, but they often also feel more sanitized to me.<br /><br />Sometimes I do manage to capture the energy in a graphite sketch. My sketches of the umbrellas (Day 59) and of the old stone house (Day 69) come to mind.<br /><br />Thanks again for your comment. I hope next time you are comfortable enough to sign your name. :)Stacyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02494806312648513169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4710395967782423014.post-65398669639513560912010-04-05T11:58:04.491-04:002010-04-05T11:58:04.491-04:00Dear Stacy, Just found your site and enjoy your li...Dear Stacy, Just found your site and enjoy your little sketches, but I would like to say that there is something that comes through in the pen and ink drawings that is missing in the pencil sketches, and whatever it is, I really enjoy it. Perhaps it's degree of contrast.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
