I have fallen in love. Not with Chef Pierre, but with pen and ink. Previously, I had been inking with micron pens and having nice results. Who knew how much joy I would find with pen and ink!!! It is like painting with a pen, I love, Love, LOVE it!!! Chef Pierre was my first attempt, I have since inked and painted a whole spread from my book dummy. I have been catching-up since my illustration class: updating the old mailing list and a few fun projects. Oh, I also have some great news: saw the digital proofs from my book and they look great AND found out that the author is pleased with how it looks, too!

Oh, Nina, I am in love with pen & ink, too. I wish I had the courage to use it, though. But looking at it makes me swoon. Your chef is magnifique!
you have such a distinct illustration style - i love seeing it translate to different characters and settings. i could not live without micron pens...
and congrats on your proofs turning out well! that is terrific!
