This thread is really cool! I like the concept of everyone sharing his or her art with each other. Love seeing the talent!
Here's some anime art of mine done in ink and alcohol markers. She is a character of mine named Vanille who works in a French cafe, and she is holding a pretty, glass jar filled with pastel-hued macarons.:sparkles::sparklingheart::sparkles:

Very pretty! Ink and alcohol markers make a vibrant effect. But they can be an unforgiving medium.

Thanks! Yeah, you're right about alcohol markers being tricky. I started using them somewhat recently (about 3 years ago), and I'm still trying to learn to use them better. I'm learning how to use watercolor markers, too (about a year ago), as shown in this painting. What's your favorite medium?

I use digital must of the time. But among traditional, perhaps brush pen or marker.

Two recent pencil drawings of just random people, i do not even know them. They are photographed at a distance either just waking down the street or sometimes working an outside job.

I like gathering images of people to draw this way, instead of walking up to them and asking them to pose for a photo. As i find many change and become aware of their presence and will lose the natural state of whatever they are doing.

Nice scratch broad work, is that a silver board?
Honestly not sure. This was done with a soap stone on black background.. I was eyeing the reference sheet to detail...

Ok it is hard to tell looking on a computer. So this is a soapstone pencil drawing on a black surface (paper?) and not a scratch board.
