More ink studies from Alphonso Dunn lessons. I'm learning a lot from his lessons, basically how to simplify things into simple forms, it's helping me with all drawing too, not just ink:

A few thumbnails playing around with how to practice the leaves in an illustration:

And inktober day 23 drawing based on thumbnail above:

I feel my control with the brush and crow quill pen is getting pretty good. The area I need to work on is light and shadow, I need to have it really locked down before I start to ink, so I know where to put the heavier lines with the brush and where to hatch the cast shadows with the crow quill.
