I was wondering if anyone knew a good site to find original abstract
pen and ink drawings? Something kind of modern.

Can you be more specific?

www.ebay.com perhaps?

Might I suggest my site?

www.LostInTheInkwell.com

It is a brand new pen and ink art work site, featuring the art of
Pittsburgh artist Kerri White. The art work that is up is brand new,
and she tells me there will be more on the way in a couple of weeks.
Take a look and tell me what you think!

The cheapest place to find them would be on one's own home. On
the table. Just after one completed them. One could keep the paper
and the pen and ink near the phone and make quite a supply. I
didn't realise until this very moment that there was a market for
this sort of thing otherwise I would have kept mine over the years.

I agree. One of the neatest ways to create
"abstract" pen and inks is to soak a piece
of watercolor paper until it is saturated
and then drop in India ink, which will
bleed and run and create all sorts of neat
abstract effects which can then be pushed
further as the paper dries.

Nice site!

The 'Flash' loads a bit slow, but very cool.
I especially liked the art works "Black Night" and "Sideways Eye". I'm
thinking of getting a poster of one of those, maybe a custom color
print <grin>. Thanks for the info. Let me know when Kerri gets her
next piece done.

I'll have to give that a try. Especially the Indian ink method. I
don't know why, but my hands and I have never quite coordinated on
getting anything I would call 'art' down on paper. It always looks
like I'm four... but hey, some people like that sort of thing, right?
<grin>. Thanks for the suggestions!

Kerri has finnished a new work!
It is called 'Pathways', and it falls along the same lines as 'Black
Night' and 'Sideways Eye'. I think it is my favorite thus far...
Take a look. It is already up at the website.

Tell me what you think.
