Dec. 1st, 2007 01:45 amI'm still feeling kind of blah. I've had the same nagging headache and upset tummy still today, making this day three. Hopefully I'll feel better tomorrow. I'm boring when I don't feel well, so I'll just post some more sketchbook pages - because sitting around the house feeling oogy is always great for curling up with the sketchbook and doodling. That, and I picked up some Sennelier inks, and I'm having a good time getting to know how they handle.
Edited to add, of interest to no one but me - these inks are everything I always wanted watercolor to be. I've just toned these three pages to draw upon later, and I love these colors. Clear, rich, and vibrant. Yay! Now to get some UV fixative to help with the only real drawback of shellac ink - not so permanent lightfastness. It's not terrible, but I should protect them anyway.
I also figured out why I feel sick - I've got a nasty ear infection starting in my right ear. Boo. But I'm not contagious, so yay.
