    I noticed that I definitely had a tendency to apply too much pressure to the pen, and I think this contributed to some shoulder fatigue that caused some veeeery wobbly lines on the coffee plant page. Some parts of that page were done while my arm was downright shaky, but I didn't want to ditch the whole construction over the resulting mistakes, so I'm going to be a lot more careful about not over-exerting my shoulder in the future.

    That said, I focused quite a bit on lesson 2's principles, and I hope these pages represent a better application of them.

    Just to clarify, should these next pages contain no texture or detail?

Pentel Pocket Brush Pen

Pentel Pocket Brush Pen

This is a remarkable little pen. Technically speaking, any brush pen of reasonable quality will do, but I'm especially fond of this one. It's incredibly difficult to draw with (especially at first) due to how much your stroke varies based on how much pressure you apply, and how you use it - but at the same time despite this frustration, it's also incredibly fun.

Moreover, due to the challenge of its use, it teaches you a lot about the nuances of one's stroke. These are the kinds of skills that one can carry over to standard felt tip pens, as well as to digital media. Really great for doodling and just enjoying yourself.
