Greetings To My Fantastic Student!

Hope you are safe, well and ready for another exciting class?! I’ve just published my first class for 2023 and its on Technical Pens! We will be focussing on steel nib technical pens and having lots of fun sketching with them!

I’ve been sketching with technical pens for a few years now and initially I wasn’t too keen on using the steel-nib variations for my specific style of sketching but I gradually became accustomed to these little tools and now use them quite often in my more detailed sketches.

In this class we will:

Delve into the technicalities of technical pens: steel nib technical pens
Discuss inking options, brands and their constructs
Analyse the surfaces they work best on
Look at their maintenance and general features

We will then complete some simple exercises using the worksheet provided (download from class resources) to get our memory muscles accustomed to these fantastic little tools by creating mini drawings using:

Hatching
Cross Hatching
Scribbling
And Stippling

We will then observe how these pens interact with other mediums before the exciting part of the step-by-step full sketch!

And finally, we will then complete a full sketch using just our technical pens and a combination of the techniques from the mini-exercises to produce a gorgeous little artwork, which will be a step-by-step process in real-time.

On completing the exercises and the full sketch, you will be ready for your class project and be super excited to express yourself using these wonderful tools for us all to see!

This class is aimed at all levels of skill from beginners to seasoned professionals and we will mostly work in real-time at a nice and steady pace for you to follow along (the step-by-step drawing produced in the class will be available as images that you can follow in the resource sheet if required).

Please give the class a go if you have steel nib technical pens and even if you don’t, just use any technical pen that you have, to follow the exercises and full sketch - I can’t wait to see your brilliant artwork!

And please remember to leave a class review when you have completed the class so that other amazing students like yourself can find the class and learn from your experience :)

Take care of yourself, and thank you in advance for your awesome support...keep sketching and peace :)
