This is a half page still life completed in pen. Pen is a medium I'm not very familiar with, so this drawing was a great opportunity for me to get acquainted with it. At first I was frustrated with the permanence, and was scared to make marks on the page. Eventually I got bold, however, and I think the end result is awesome. I love pen now, I think it's a very fun and bold medium; I especially like the shading under the hula hoop on this one! The texture on the basketball took ages, but was well worth it!
