It's a dark and grey day here, so I'm going with gloriously happy orange ink and a comforting floral pattern for today's #inkyDays drawing. I also started a bigger drawing on watercolor paper.

Here's an in-progress shot. The shimmer of the ink is almost noticeable in the photo.

I've posted the rest for anyone who supports any of my work on Patreon or Ko-fi:

In solidarity with Minnesota, I'm experimenting with the Minnesota flag as a motif in today's #inkyDays drawing.

I'm also working on a better representation of the flag. Maybe to make stickers to give away? It's a little challenging and freehand isn't working for me. Once I figured out the star, it got easier. Tested a bunch of different inks, and I think I have a good combination now.

I'll post more when I make more progress.

#ink #drawing #art #Minnesota

For today's #inkyDays drawing, I'm going with a comforting floral pattern in one of the inks I used for drawing abstract Minnesota flags yesterday.

I've also made progress on drawing a Minnesota flag with my inks. It's much more precise than my usual approach to drawing my hand, but it's getting close...at least for now. Each component is cut out, another difference from my usual drawings.

I also finished another version of the Minnesota flag pattern. I like this one much better than the last one. I left the overflow unfinished and the whole thing is more circular. Which inspired me to do a floral pattern with the star in the center.
