Sketching portraits in pen and ink
Sketching portraits in pen and ink is a great way of learning good drawing skills. Because ink marks are non-erasable, an artist has to draw correctly all lines from the first attempt. This helps to avoid mistakes and achieve better precision. Drawing in pen and ink trains fine motor skills that are so important for every artist. To find out what these skills are and how to develop them, check this article: https://lifedrawing.academy/life-drawing-academy-news/fine-motor-skills
