Worm & dog

Yes, it's a worm, not a snake.
This doodle was a test for the Pigma brush pen. What I can say is that it's okay when new but very soon the (fiber-tip) brush loses it's sharp edge and it's not very fun to draw with anymore. I'm not getting another one of these brush pens, though I do like the other Micron pens. I read some good recommendations about the Pentel brush pen so I'll try to get my hands on one of those.

Buddhist nun

This is one of my VERY few attempts with oil colors (mainly blue in this case). It was done back in 1998 and I don't think I used oil paints since. Back then, I was very interested in the monks way of life, especially the Zen buddhists.
I hope to get back to oils sometime as I remember it was a very satisfying experience.
Here's the full painting.
Oil + cardboard

Leah Goldberg

As promised, here is the first sketch I did on my new Field Notes sketchbook. It's a portrait sketch of Leah Goldberg I took from a picture in a newspaper. I must admit that the ink flowed smoothly across the page without bleeding. I used my trusty Rotring Art-Pen EF equipped with Pelikan brilliant black ink.
