Have you always wanted to use a dip pen for your ink and watercolor sketches? The feeling of dipping your nib in ink is amazing; a dip pen sketch will add personality and charm to your drawings.

If you are tempted to try, this class is for you! An easy, relaxed and friendly approach to line and wash with a dip pen will get you started in a breeze.

Dip pens are inexpensive and provide great results, but there are some questions my class will answer before you try:

what supplies should you purchase? I will give you advice about the best pen holders, nibs and inks to get started.
How can I prepare my nib?
Can I add watercolor over ink?
Are there some basic rules for inking with a dip pen?

I will answer all these question sketching along with you (in real time) a fun, vintage looking stack of books. Today you can learn a new skill while having a lot of fun!

This class is perfectly suitable for beginners, but also for intermediate students that would like to try to sketch with a dip pen.

I hope to see you in my class!
