Here are nine purple things that I coralled last night. Lucky for me, they came without a struggle.
Pen was a Pigma Micron. Washes were washes.
Funnily enough, I looked at the drawing after I finished and thought "Oh, so that's how Florine Asch does it!" She's one of my favorite illustrators but I've never thought my style was remotely like hers--mainly because pens are what she usually draws with and she has a staccato line. I now realize that some of that comes from the pen itself.
Laura, thank you so much for the great post and for introducing me to Florine Asch. Your site is soooo rich in many ways!
