The Jester

The Jester © Kandace Barnes 2012 Gel ink on archival paper. A colorful fun abstract of The Jester. I think most of us have known someone who takes on this role in our life.

intriquing work! One could not simply pass your work at a glance, I would have to stay a while and take it all in. Good job!

Nicely done pen and ink with lots of great shapes and colors, Kandace. I use gel ink too. :) All of us, male and female qualify as 'fool' in some way or another. But a jester is supposed to make us laugh as well and sometimes the best laugh is the one directed at yourselves, don't you think? PS: I have found that 100 lb. drawing paper with medium tooth works best. :)

Artist Reply: Charles thank you for your compliment on my first gel ink abstract! I usually use acrylic, watercolor but mostly pastel, however I really enjoy the flow and colors available with gel pens. Thanks for the tip on the paper. Is that cold or hot press. Have you ever used paper specifically made for pens?

Artist Reply: I hear you on that one Bella. I had just broken up with a fool before I got your comment. I already felt great about the decision and your comment only confirmed my feelings. I thank you very much!!!
