Jace Lee Anderson @jaceleeanderson.bsky.social · 02/03/2025I've been studying facial expressions using the exercises from the book "Making Comics" by Scott McCloud as part of my journey toward creating my own graphic novel. Still so much to explore, but I'm excited to keep learning! #penandink #comicbookart #graphicnovelart #facialexpressions 030

Jace Lee Anderson @jaceleeanderson.bsky.social · 24/02/2025Art feels different when shared. This pen & ink sketch comes from a 3D-printed Asaro head tool a friend made. Drawn at the library. #AsaroHead #PenAndInk 050
Jace Lee Anderson @jaceleeanderson.bsky.social · 17/02/2025Most of my pages end up something like this. Lines and ellipses. #DrawingExercise #Sketchbook #PenAndInk 060

Jace Lee Anderson @jaceleeanderson.bsky.social · 14/02/2025I started my day with a quick sketch with breakfast and tea, fit one in on my lunch break, and sat down after dinner for two more to fill the page up a bit. #sketchbook #figuredrawing #gesturestudy #penandinkart 070
Jace Lee Anderson @jaceleeanderson.bsky.social · 11/02/2025Three quick figure sketches from a freestyle dance video—an exercise in capturing movement with speed and confidence. #sketchbook #figuredrawing #gesturestudy 1120
Jace Lee Anderson @jaceleeanderson.bsky.social · 11/02/2025A page of rotating cylinders. Unlike cubes, these demand an eye for subtle curves and balanced ellipses, revealing just how much a slight misalignment can throw everything off. #SketchbookStudies #InkDrawing #CylindersInPerspective #FormAndStructure 060
Jace Lee Anderson @jaceleeanderson.bsky.social · 09/02/2025Exploring consistency and perspective and hoping for crisp lines, tight perspective, and a meditative process, I uncovered areas of weakness, turning them into opportunities for growth. #PenAndInk #SketchbookTour #PerspectiveDrawing #PilotVanishingPoint 040

Jace Lee Anderson @jaceleeanderson.bsky.social · 03/02/2025My Pilot Custom Heritage 92 EF—a piston-filler that’s been with me since the start of my fountain pen journey. With it, I’m exploring De Atramentis Document White for highlights on toned paper. Still learning its quirks, but I love how it pops! #FountainPen #TonedPaper #InkDrawing 2190
Jace Lee Anderson @jaceleeanderson.bsky.social · 03/02/2025A page in my Stillman & Birn Nova Gray sketchbook using Noodler’s X-Feather Black and De Atramentis Document White with gesture studies of the first 17 seconds of a dance routine by CDK, and cube studies to explore contour lines and form, reinforcing character design and spatial awareness #penandink 061

Jace Lee Anderson @jaceleeanderson.bsky.social · 29/01/2025Today I got a new ink (De Atramentis White) and started a new sketchbook (Stillman and Birn - Nova Gray). These are both new tools and challenges for me and I feel equally humbled and excited for what may come if it. 011
Jace Lee Anderson @jaceleeanderson.bsky.social · 27/01/20259 more flora sketches. I'm pausing this 1000 drawings challenge project to focus on building my skills with simplified forms, composition, and working from imagination. During this break, I'll continue exploring #comicbook and #graphicnovel design theory. 041
Jace Lee Anderson @jaceleeanderson.bsky.social · 26/01/2025I love juggling multiple projects at once—it keeps the creativity flowing and helps me avoid burnout. Here's some progress on a large pen-and-ink portrait I'm working on while I take a break from comic book philosophy. #fountainpens #blackandwhite #portraitartist 081
Jace Lee Anderson @jaceleeanderson.bsky.social · 26/01/2025Practicing layouts with a full page of panels, inspired by exercises from Making Comics by Scott McCloud. Exploring pacing, composition, and storytelling. I’m starting to better understand visual storytelling! Thoughts? #graphicnovel #comicbook #penandink #sketchbookillustration 020
Jace Lee Anderson @jaceleeanderson.bsky.social · 25/01/2025Work in progress: comic book-style scene of zombies getting beat up. Playing with dynamic poses, gritty details, and subtle chaos. #sketchbook #fountainpens #graphicnovel 030

Jace Lee Anderson @jaceleeanderson.bsky.social · 22/01/2025Just ordered my first bottle of white fountain pen ink (De Atramentis) to experiment on toned paper (Stillman and Birn - Nova - Grey). I’m excited to see what comes of it! 120

Jace Lee Anderson @jaceleeanderson.bsky.social · 20/01/2025Using the exercises from Making Comics by Scott McCloud, I began mapping out beats of the story in a list, sketched boxes to fit the flow, and then dove straight in with ink—no pencils, no erasers. Still, I faced hurdles: emotional clarity, perfectionism, and the fear of messing up. 020
Jace Lee Anderson @jaceleeanderson.bsky.social · 19/01/2025Hello, Blue Sky! I’m Jace—an artist. Art is my anchor, my question, my answer—and often, my struggle. Here, I’ll share my work with thoughts, and glimpses into the process behind it. Let’s make something! What inspires you, and what struggles have shaped your approach to art? 020
