Hi everyone! I drew a key in an old worn door with dip pen and sepia ink. After the pen application I added a diluted wash of the same ink here and there.
I made this illustration on hot pressed watercolor paper and it’s 9x13cm. (About 3,5 x 5 inch)
If you’re interested, I uploaded a video to YouTube where you can watch the entire process: https://youtu.be/un1YKgoMB_Q
What do you think?
Hi @Appelmoes -
I just watched your YouTube link. That site and your artwork is most impressive. Love it!!! Thanks so much for sharing.

Oh thank you so much! 
Hello Anne,
This turned out amazing. Your work on the wood looks so real. One thing I really appreciate when looking for photo references is unique old rustic pictures=s, like this one, or ruins.
You did a wonderful job on this. Thank you for sharing this with us. If you are a member, you should consider submitting this for a critique.

Anne,
I just went to the critique to see if it was posted and to my surprise an amazing ink drawing you did is being critiqued this week, just wonderful!
Wanted to let you know.
Teri
I was wondering if this was the same Anne. It was a great drawing and helpful critique.

Thank you! I think I haven’t the notifications sort out, I just saw it on the website. It indeed was my drawing in the critique! That was a nice surprise.
Yes it was! It was indeed helpful and I have framed the drawing. It’s hanging in our livingroom right now and it will always have a special place there.
This is my favorite medium at the moment and I have lots to learn. This drawing is wonderful and I really appreciate the detail in the video - very inspiring!
Thank you so much Teresa, I appreciate that! Pen and ink had a bit of a learning curve for me, it didn’t came very natural. I am still learning as well!
