I work in black pen and ink, using a pointillist style. The technique is slow and very firmly non-digital. A simple piece will take 40 hours and larger pieces can reach a hundred hours work. This technique allows an almost draughtsman-like precision with a subtlety of shading which can match pencil-work. It is a medium which is not frequently used and rarely used as consistently I do. I have now started experimenting with the addition of ink-wash, both with black India ink and coloured inks - a challenge for a heavily colour-blind artist.
