Copying pen and ink

Copying pen and ink - student project

I like copying and glad to know the instructor thinks it improves skills.

I'm including a copy I made yesterday of a vintage photo that reminds me of my mother when she was young.

I've also copied some of Claudia Nice's pen and ink work.

The old man and woman are from a photo I tried to simplify. My sepia ink is permanent, so couldn't do a wash with it. It's DeAtramentis document ink, brown.
