Concert Night
“Band Mates” Cedar Park, 2017
Tonight Koa performed in his school band’s first concert of the year. It was a fantastic performance, especially since they have only been practicing for a few months. But what I really like is that they are all having fun, especially during the concerts. They put in so many hours of practice and hard work but it’s all worth it since they can be proud of the results. And I think the positive band experience will last a lifetime. 🙂

Tonight’s Sketch
“2017.10.25 Sketch” Cedar Park, 2017
こんばんは。Tonight’s sketch. Nothing much to say about it, but it’s good practice. The version below is the earlier version.
To see all the sketches I’ve been working on, you can check out the Flickr album “My Sketching Journey”, or my Instagram account barron.sketches which I created just for posting sketches, watercolors, and stationery items.
I hope you had a nice day!

New Ink
“Ama-iro” Cedar Park, 2017
こんばんは。How’s it going?
Today I received a beautiful bottle of beautiful ink. I have tried a few different sample inks, and I found myself going back to the Iroshizuku Ama-iro sky blue in a few pens. Consequently, I ran out of it quickly. So, I knew I wanted to get a bottle of the ink, but the question was if I should get the smaller 15ml or larger 50ml size.
It was a pretty easy decision to go with the 50ml bottle for a couple of reasons. First, I like to use medium and broad nib pens, and they put down a lot of ink. Secondly, the price difference was not that big. And lastly, the Isoshizuku 50ml bottles are beautiful!
So now I have Ama-iro loaded in 3 of two of my pens, and I am set for a while. 🙂
I realized that I didn’t take a recent photo of the actual ink, but here’s a google search that shows how pretty it is.
I hope you had a nice day!

Dinner and a Non-Movie
“Dinner Spread” Cedar Park, 2017
こんばんは。How’s it going?
Tonight a couple good friends came over for dinner and a movie. But not any movie! It was Cult of Chucky, the horror movie starring the creepy doll from the ’80s. 😱
I really hate scary movies, so I only watched a little bit. I’d say this one is less scary, but more gory… lots of blood and killing. My wife and friends enjoyed it quite a bit, but I just can’t watch. So when the killing started (even though it is very over-the-top) I had to leave the room. I’m such a wimp. 😅
Anyways, dinner was delicious and our friends brought over some homemade cornbread! Fun food and a fun evening! 😀
