AUDREY HEPBURN GETS SLOSHED

I was quite lucky with this drawing of Audrey Hepburn because I just sloshed the ink on the paper and it more or less went in all the right places. I used Quink, which is a writing ink, and my special ingredient (which must still remain a secret, sorry kids) to do this drawing which was made for no particular reason other than I like Audrey Hepburn. There are certain shades of ink that can ruin a girl's complexion (I'm misqouting Breakfast at Tiffany's there) but the good thing about Quink is that it dilutes brilliantly with water and subtle tones can be applied.
