Week 12 of Inktober52 brings us the word prompt COVER. I have been enjoying painting with handmade ink from Birmingham Pen Company located in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania. The colors are rich and vibrant. Our ceramic frog enjoyed being the model for this drawing. 🐸

I have some new ink that I bought from Birmingham Pen Company. I also painted this drawing using white titanium gouache and magenta Aqua Drop.

For a couple of months we had horses living across the street. Daphne got to meet a horse. They became friends.

The character Brunhild is in the opera cycle Der Ring des Nibelungen composed by Richard Wagner.

Some of my white gel pens had dried out, so I went to Micheal’s to freshen up my pen supplies. This is Daphne our Yorkshire Terrier. She is snug and cozy in her bed wrapped in blankets.
