The Drawing Board

Very fine piece, Anthony...and that format can be fun...

As for the Door event, I aim to go there, spending Friday night in Green Bay at my mom's place. But..looking at the ten day forecast for Fish Creek area, they are talking off and on thunderstorms so far. Hope that changes.

Hey...might have to come back here and look at your shirts for sale. As I've said, a long love for the martial arts..

The life of an artist has lost its allure for me now ;)

Nicely written, Tony. It means a lot to me to learn the story.

These are wonderful! I like the peninsula painting. I liked your choice in background flora pallet. That choice really makes the subject (trees on peninsula) pop out. I like it. I also like the suggestions in the foreground reflections (say that fast). It totally feels like an after rain moment.

I'm looking forward to painting with you some day soon.

I absolutely felt like that at the end of Bebop. Hmmm... Anime Blues. I think that's an accurate description.

Thanks. I did finally get the pen, I'll be writing a review on it later this month. I haven't had time to blog since it arrived. I have not yet gotten my order from Akadot, I would warn people about that company.

I did finally get a response from Mr. Ackerman himself, who explained that they were having email problems. There were two email addresses listed, one on the site, one on the invoice. I tried both but the messages kept getting returned. He apologized for the problem, and explained that the order was to be shipped within the week. About two weeks later it did arrive.

The pen is very interesting, worth the $25 I think. When I get a chance I plan to get the brush pen as well, but I won't expect it to arrive in anything short of a month after placing the order.

Watch for my upcoming post, I'll go over it's performance in detail.

nice blog. Just wondering if you ever sorted things out with Ackerman. Did it take a long time to get your pen? I wish I had read this before I ordered one. Now I'm worried

Directions?! Bah! That's just the way some other guy thinks it should be done.

This one's outstanding. VERY nice work.

The jury is still out, I have a number of medium combinations I want to try, that will take time to explore.

So are you liking this medium? Or is the jury still out?

Nice post, T. And thanks.
