I continued working with my new Pentel Arts Aquash Brush to make another drawing on paper. Once again, as I squeezed the pen, a large amount of the ink came out, forming a puddle. I dipped the brush in it and created lines spreading out from the central spot.
After I made the basic design with the Aquash Brush, I outlined the inner shapes of the central image with a fine tipped black pen. Then I shaded in some of the outer shapes with a gray brush pen. The main effect of this drawing is that it highlights the negative spaces.
