I'd be inclined to ask more about your concepts and ideologies. You have a unique style and I wonder who's influenced you and what work you admire and why. What YOU like about your work.

I'm not familiar with the other paper brands you mention (newbie) however, your zine is so luscious that I'm going to start the ball point action. I like the Pitt pens, but pilot has so many nice ones. I like moleskine and was looking fwd to having one of those for the Sketchbook project, but they sent over a different one, stapled, and smaller, but with 70 lb paper, instead of the Cahier of past years. hmmm...<br /><br />Thanks for all this info!Parabolic Musehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08293896881451344660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34905653.post-33963222469080470342011-07-02T02:20:20.433+00:002011-07-02T02:20:20.433+00:00Yes, Andrea, great effin' post.

How do you avoid screwing up an entire drawing with a misplaced line or two?<br /><br />* Can you draw anywhere or do you need a certain kind of ambiance?<br /><br />* How long does it take you to complete a drawing of, say, typical Moleskine page dimensions?<br /><br />Thanks!melydiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06255399219907416923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34905653.post-88028854395411003382011-07-01T17:35:06.872+00:002011-07-01T17:35:06.872+00:00OK, here's a question:

I too have a couple of questions for you but I will save them for a later time.<br /> For now, I just want to mention to you that, I was your champion yesterday, I had to do it. Someone had posted one of your drawings on their blog with no mention of you as the artist. Ironically it was one of the drawings you posted in this post... the converse sneakers over your calligraphy. As soon as I saw it I was outraged and I immediately reblogged it, with a firm scold to the poster, and a full accreditation to you as the artist {with your blog link attached}. I hope you don't mind, but I felt like I must stick up for you, while someone else was GRABBING KUDO'S FOR YOUR WORK...<br /> You can see my reblog here along with the freak accident of a post I made myself the next day...<br />http://zabc.tumblr.com/...<br /> - at your drawing click on (via notebookz) to see where it all began,- at her photo click on it again and there is the source...<br /> All the best to you Andrea, big fan of your work...

I see you're as consistent as the sunrise ... which is kind of comforting so I'm so glad I visited. As for the topic of your post, I have found that finding your medium and the best tools/brands for your style is absolutely crucial but can take time. I never draw in dark tones on light. My brain just isn't wired like most peoples'. Kind of like how you said that you end up drawing when you use paint. I have found that oil paint on coloured ground and coloured pencil on black paper are truly the mediums for me, but it took a lot of trial-and-error to get there. I'm just glad I can switch back and forth between the two.andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05150477394533914410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34905653.post-11491910053466337372011-06-29T22:16:37.931+00:002011-06-29T22:16:37.931+00:00Great stuff!

Both waterproof, which is essential for me as I like to slosh watercolour.

Nibs and ink reservoirs are available separately, so destroying the nib before emptying the ink shouldn't be a problem anymore. I myself find them very durable, rather stylish and having good grip, and in comparison to normal fine liners more ecological. Do you use those too?Julie Paradisehttp://www.julieparadise.denoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34905653.post-7649967171121160872011-06-29T19:21:07.769+00:002011-06-29T19:21:07.769+00:00What a great post!!

I use them on a daily basis too and let's just say I have never had one run out of ink - I have always destroyed the nib long before the ink goes! I would love to hear if you have any tips to prolong the life of my poor fineliner nibs :)Kate Hadfieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09439081914020397104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34905653.post-36936787794527524752011-06-29T18:26:14.894+00:002011-06-29T18:26:14.894+00:00Great post!
