100 Elephants

This is one in a series of 100 elephant drawings and paintings. This will take a while. It was done with an Esterbrook 355 pen nib.

  1. Awesome! Reminds me of mid century American kids book stuff.

  3. I agree--like something sprung free of a '40s cartooning book.

    Looks much better here than on Fbook.

    Does that pen allow all-in-one line
    move, or a 'dipper'? Never heard of it.

  4. It's a "dipper". It's a nice vintage flexible pen point that tends t to be easy to find in large quantity on E-bay. Usually I can get a gross for about $12.

    But yeah, I had to do a lot of stops and starts so it wouldn't bust or splatter.
