Liquid Pencil with Sue Raccanello

[PixartComAu]

Can't do same with sumi-e ink because this is liquid graphite; has a texture and shine sumi-e ink does not have. Liquid pencil is pliant because it's not black but mid-grey. It means less mistakes, more variety of work. You can see the exact tint you use, no guessing it like with black sumi-e with water added. Unlike sumi-e, you start from mid-grey and then go up and down the tonal scale by adding more ink or lifting it up with water. There are permanent & re-wettable versions of liquid pencil.

It looks very nice, but I guess I don't see why one wouldn't just use sumi-e and get the same look?

Thank you for demonstrating the liquid pencil - can't wait to try it - you might want to think about adding music to your video while we watch it to make it a better experience and I love your birds

Thanks for the demo of liquid pencil. I never heard of it before I saw it in an art catalog today. I might want it for covering large areas.
