Join me for an exclusive live drawing demonstration at Gallery North in North Adams, MA, Wednesday, September 18th 6-7pm! I’ll be showcasing my unique silver ink on black panel technique, walking you through the entire process—from panel preparation to composition design. This year, my silver pen work has caught a lot of attention, and I'm excited to give you an in-depth look at the innovations that have made it stand out. If you're curious about trying it yourself, supplies will be available for purchase at the gallery.
My silver ink technique evolved from my sketching process. Instead of outlining and shading, I draw light onto dark, sculpting the world with light. As I developed this into larger pieces, I found that silver ink provided a stunning glow against the black panel, reminiscent of the luminosity of my oil paintings. Recently, I’ve introduced Musou Black—a deeper, more intense background that amplifies the striking contrast and makes my work even more vibrant.
