So I've recently moved to the UK and living as an artist. Thought I'd share with you two of my latest London pieces. 
All hand drawn in Indian Ink.
Here's where I have some updates on new drawings

I've been a keen imugrian for the past 3 years. Every so often I post some of my drawings up to mixed results. But sometimes I've found some amazing artists. Any other illustrators out there?

That's the ink and nib I use. Indian ink. It's a little more time consuming than regular pen. But it adds an inky shine which is totally worth it.

Why don't you just use a ballpoint pen? They work just as well...

well ballpoint pens have (in my opinion) rather shity ink. It can still smudge once set and I can't shade with a brush and water.

No, no. I've used a ballpoint pen and I can tell you they are of only the highest quality. Trust me on this.

Hey @op would you be willing to sell one? My wife moved from the U.K. a few months ago and I'd love to put one of these on our wall.

Hey @iburnmycd Yes they are for sale and have been hanging in a gallery in Southwalk. All are profesionally framed and mounted.

How is the difference in color between the foreground and background achieved? Is the white color pencil?

No I actually cut out the drawing and stick it into a coloured backboard.
