Pen and Ink Drawing

 

 

Pen and Ink Drawing: Two Different Techniques

Our Pen and Ink Drawing Lessons explain the two techniques we used to create the ink drawings below. Each style of illustration explores a different approach to drawing with pen, ink and color wash.

 

 
 
 
     
 

1. Detailed Pen Drawing (pages 1- 4)

This pen and ink drawing lesson takes you through the various stages in the development of our detailed illustration of the town of Whitby. It is a mixed media work on paper, using pencil, Indian ink and watercolor. This tutorial will help to develop your basic drawing skills in pencil, the use of cross-hatching and stippling techniques with Indian ink, and your watercolor painting skills.

 
     
   
     
 

2. Expressive Pen Drawing (pages 8-10)

This pen, ink and wash lesson illustrates and explains the various stages in creating our color drawing of Lindisfarne Priory. This is a less detailed, quicker and more expressive drawing technique than our previous tutorial. It is done on cartridge paper using black and color Indian inks applied with a pen and brush.
