Sketch of the day in my moleskine art journal is a Straits Rhododendron flower, a pretty tropical wild flower from Penang hill to kickstart the week.
I’m trying out using watercolour in my sketchbook to see if it works as well as marker pens. I’m still debating if I want to carry on using faber castell ink pens or switch to watercolour. I have already started to switch from sharpie pens to faber castell because the sharpie pens bleed through the paper but the faber castell pens do not. I learnt that better quality pens do not have alcohol content that makes the ink bleed through the paper. I guess that’s why there is a price difference. I learnt something new.
HAPPY MONDAY xx

Chamonix is very dear to my heart. That is where we trained and started our ill-fated climb to Mont-blanc. (See my post The white mountain). Also did la mer de glace with friends. π bonne neige mon amie. π
