Another piece in my beloved pen and ink medium. 9 x 12 bristol, with Copic Multiliners in sizes .03 and .7. Part of the 'Tell Me a Story' project, this one for Marina. She asked for an owl, and an oak tree, and told me about her character Nimhelith (who lives in a high fantasy setting). This is what came out of that prompt.

Nice! I like the detail on the owl, feathers and the tree, makes it look so much more real!

:-) Ellen 'the Alaskan' Million replies: "it’s true, I’m a detail-freak!"

I can’t believe the detail you put into this! My hand would fall off!!! Super job !!! And it’s ink??? I could never...ever...ever do something like this! If I can’t use my erasers ( yeah...way more than one) I’d quit! RARELY do I even try...only once was I happy ( sortof) with a try at ink! Please keep it up.

:-) Ellen 'the Alaskan' Million replies: "I do a TON of erasing before I get to this point - I work in pencils first and get things just right before I dare to ink. "
