One of My Nephews Fishing

Here's a quick pen and ink sketch I did of my eldest nephew fishing at Huey Run, WV over the weekend.

Both of my brother's sons are newbies to fishing and kayaking.  This was their second day out in the kayaks.  The first day was priceless watching their faces as they first sat in one trying to get the feel of balancing so not to tip.  By the second trip out, they were pros.



I actually managed to get lighter markings with my Noodler's Flex pen for the background trees.  I followed a suggestion make by another artist to hold the pen so the nib was upside down.  That made for a lighter  line mark.
