I am exploring the gouache medium again today, and I'm adding some ink. I begin with brown and black India ink for those lines. This heavy paper is very absorbent, so the super fine nib skips a bit on those lines. I add the gouache in a fluid manner. I know you can get pretty thick with gouache, but I'm not there yet. I finish with a fountain pen, brushing those lines gently with a little water to make them spread. The light is simply beautiful as I finish, I should pull out my oils! Painting number 1909 in 1909 days.
