Drawing in the haze

There is a bad haze in Singapore right now. The PSI reading tonight has gone up to 321. (http://www.nea.gov.sg/psi/) I drew this from my car this evening. Sailor profit calligraphy pen (bent nib) + watercolour.

random sketching

I had 3 different desserts at my in-law's house on Sunday. Watercolours + Falcon

Sailor 1911 F (back of nib) + Platinum 3776 + watercolours

How many hands up?

I tried to make sense of this one best I could. Hero pen + photoshop

Commonwealth Crescent

Tried out a few sumi brushes I got from Japan. But it seems that some were made in China haha.

Japan trip: May 27

I used a new Custom 742 SF fountain pen for these. It flexes pretty good for a modern pen. Perhaps better than a Namiki falcon. The ink that came with it wasn't waterproof, so it was smudgy. But it was kind of nice that way.

For this one, I used a kuretake brush pen with the light blue cap. The brush is very small. Good for line work.

Japan trip: May 15-25

Japan: May 13-14

Japan: May 10-12

Here are my journal pages from the trip. These were all drawn on location. The degree of which I completed the drawings depended on how much time I had to draw in each situation.
