I wanted to add movement and freedoom to my sketches so I thought of drawing with the wood part of the brush, I think I'll explore it because it seems to add some kind of expression (sorry if i don't use the right technical words in english, it's not my native language :| )

video drawing this last drawing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NJfrRBW5LJI

i'm doing some videos using different techniques to share the way I work as well, I think it's interesting for artists to share ideias and the way they work :)

Well done, and inspiring.  It motivates me to try that, too.  It does add a sense of motion and spontaneity to the work.  jeff

There was a bottle of ink at the store that made me think of trying it.......upon seeing your work....it made me want to really grab that bottle of ink and try my hand at it. Thanks.

Thank you both for looking!

Glad you'll try, I also used once a rose button without the petals with indian ink, and the effect was amazing because I could turn it and draw with one or several parts just as I was doing the movement and it was really expressive...

If know any more materials that could give a good result please say it,

thanks!
