Drew and inked this dress in a single sitting the other night. I’m glad I am finally getting over my fear of dip pens. I used to work with them when I was a teen because I didn’t know Sakura pens existed yet. I also slowly got afraid of making a mistake. I still want to make a third option, and maybe even a fourth, for the upcoming gallery piece. The intent is to have the armor in a previous post in charcoal, while the other outfit fades in via colored pencil. This is heavily inspired by Russian folk wear. The kimono in the corner is the red and orange ombré one that has shown up here a couple times. I carried some of the motifs over. My website is in my profile! From there you can see where else I am online, as well as check out prints and accessories. #gown #russianinspired #dress #inkdrawing #artistsoninstagram #dippen https://www.instagram.com/p/ByQ8YyABVh4/?igshid=73amnseu30ge
