After making two minimalist drawings in black on white earlier this week, today I added more color after beginning with a black calligraphy marker. First I tried adding some gray, but quickly switched to tan and brown, as I wasn't happy with my choice of gray markers.
One problem with markers is that they are always drying up just when you decide you want to use that particular color. I haven't found a good source to replace individual colors that have the broad range of tones I like to use. Eventually I'll have to order a whole new set.
In any case, once I went to the browns and tans, they led me to orange and even red. I had fun with this one, filling in some shapes with a tan brush pen, and adding texture with a fine point black pen.
