Pen And Ink Illustration

My sketches over a Tomohawk song



What type of Art Tools can I use…..?

I ordered a custom made Book of Shadows through witchesmoon.net and it is BEAUTIFUL!! I have calligraphy pens and ink to write the text with. But I was wondering what I can use for the illustrations. I don’t want to use crayons because I don’t think it will look very pretty. I know pretty much zilch about art supplies. Is there a type of color pencil or anything I can use to create the look I am after. I am including a link to the image that has the detail I want to capture.

Scroll down to the VERY bottom of the page and you’ll see a very beautiful, detailed page of a BOS. Do you know what she used? What do YOU use?

Sorry, hopefully this link will work

Wow, that is impressive. Is the paper already “old-looking?” I would guess colored pencil for the illustrations. There are many brands, just about any would work, but Prismacolors seem to be popular (I use them, too). You should learn a little about making textures with colored pencils before you mark up your BOS. I’d also recommend a colorless blender for smoothing out the color.

Good luck and blessed be!
