End of a Summer Day, Saint-Roch, Quebec City

pencil, pen and ink wash 4.75" x 12"

How I love pen and ink. I like the way I have to incorporate accidents into the overall aim of the drawing- it's difficult to be too perfectionistic with a medium that is unerasable. I always start with a very faint wash, and often end up being surprised at how dark the darks end up being.
