shades of ink

so, finally, no pencil and no shoes! i have been trying to get more comfortable with using ink in my drawing. i like this "sketchy" look, so i've been working on shading with my micron pen. it really isn't a very exciting subject, but it's part of the process, and for some reason i absolutely love to sit and do this shading. and...the sound of the pen scratching on the paper is great!
