Sketching with ink and watercolor

Here comes some update after a long silence... I was practicing perspective by sketching buildings. I was using ink and water mixable pen (watercolor pen? ). It´s quite quick method.

Enjoy :)

My first drawing experiences :)

This is kind of retrospective post, I was asked to share some drawings from times when I was doing my first drawings and trying to figure out how to hold the pencil... :)
Maybe it´s a shame that my drawing skills were the same like I was a child. But even I´m still far to be a master there is some visible progress... :)
Behold ! The beginning of my journey.

My very first drawing in my very first sketchbook, early 2011

My anatomy knowledge was really outstanding... :)

Some portrait created after a month of study.

Some drawing after a year. 2012

Portrait after a year and half Autumn 2012

Few traditional sketches from my sketchbook

I would like to share these three traditional sketches from my sketchbook, just to have some update.
Nothing fancy, just studies. Format usually smaller than A5.

Pencil study of some painting, checking for values and edges.

Quick portrait study from some photo reference, tempera colors used (just black/white)

Pencil study of some painting again.

Some sketches

The weather is hot and it´s not easy to paint/draw for me. Here is some update after some time. Nothing fancy, just few shots from my sketchbook.

 Just doodling around, trying to find some inspiration

Sketch touched with tempera colors.

Pencil sketches

I don´t have much update to share, so here you can see few quick pencil sketches from my recent sketchbook (A5).
I know that my drawing sucks and I need to practice more. Maybe I´m a small bit better with colors... :) I hope...

Quick portrait sketch before dinner

Quick sketch when I was waiting for a dinner. I know it is not very precise according the reference, but I don´t care...it was caused by the hunger... :)
I would like to update and paint over it with temperas or acrylics later...

"Hunger sketch" :)

Digitally colored traditional pencil sketch

I made a small sketch with friend of mine "Saki", just to investigate the form. Later I found out that I like it, so made a photo and put into a Photoshop. Then I played with tablet and colors upside of the original sketch and it turned out into quite nice result. It´s quite messy but I like it and hope that my friend will like it too.

Weekend sketch

This is my new weekend sketch done with KOH-I-NOOR black pencil "NEGRO". A4, 1 hour ish...
Used some picture from my favourite book about chiaroscuro as a reference..

Pen and ink

Here is a next experiment with ink pen and water brush. It's quite stylized portrait, maybe with some elements from manga style... :) I've used standard blue ink, but I have already purchased black ink.

Format A4, standard white paper. Picture taken by camera.
