KNIVES OUT!

 


This is my entry for the Capitol Hill Art League's August Challenge "Knives Out!"  It is called "Rack 'em Up" and is my magnetic knife rack in the kitchen.  It includes, as you can see, a pair of kitchen shears.  

The challenge is great fun because we get so many different "takes" on the topic with artists using watercolor, acrylic, oil, photography and sumi-e, for example   For this one, I used a felt pen called "Elegant Writer."  It is made for calligraphy, but I like to use it for sketching.  When I wet it, it does things I can't quite control and sometimes even gets red or blue tints although the pen is black.
