The pencil felt scratchy, as though it skipped a lot. It seems to be better for writing than sketching.

New art supplies
I made a trip to "Art Perspective" in Trincity Mall and was happy to pick up a Sharpie Liquid Pencil with some refills, a Strathmore Mixed Media Visual Journal and a piece of linoleum to carve into (I've done erasers, but never tried the linoleum).

Hello Allenoel! You have a lot of talent! I love the sketch that you drew! What will you do with the lino? Do you carve into it and then do prints?

Thank you, Elizabeth. Somehow, I never get notifications of comments, so I apologise for this extremely late response.
ReplyDeleteYes, the linoleum is carved and then used for prints. Here is a Youtube video from UtrechtArtSupply about carving the linoleum block (the linoleum piece I got is not mounted on a block).
