I was just messing around practicing drawing bones, a rib cage and pelvic bones.
Then I decided to just make marks with pens, markers and a pencil.
I used a uni-ball Signo 207 pen. I really like these for journaling and drawing. They come in a micro, regular and a bold tip.
I also used Sakura's solid marker (slim). You can smudge these while they are still wet, and they dry permanent.
I used a few poster-paint pens from Sharpie to add a bit of color.
For the horizontal pink stripes I use a large tip Montana acrylic water-based paint marker.
I used a regular pencil to add scribbles and words.
It was good to pare down a bit, just using a few basic things to do some expressing. It reminded me you don't need lots of stuff to create.

I love the stripped back bones of these pages Mary - simple, basic, stark even, but very powerful. Love it, and you've got me thinking about bones and vertebrae too .....
I really love your recent work. The rough, raw, energy is fascinating. Your colours and imagery remind me a bit of Jean-Michel Basquiat! Love it!
