I've been spending all my free studio time playing with my inks and getting my fingers nice and colourful. I love the glossy texture that they leave, and how smooth my favourite pens write on top of them. The gel pens just glide over the ink so smoothly. I love that the white shows up so opaque over the backgrounds that I've created.
I painted almost all of these pages with my hands, and a couple elements with some different brushes. There's also a couple stickers layered in there too. I have a whole pile of ephemera to stick in there, and layer within each page, but I can't make myself do it! I just want to get my fingers all messy, all the time. Most of these pages are just for me, but I like that I can share them with you too!
My sketchbook of choice for painting with inks is Moleskine's Folio A4 Sketchbook, a hardcovered, large book with heavy smooth paper. Inks go on like butter!

love all the colors!
