dip pen drawings in progress

I've been making a ton of dip pen drawings this semester and mastering the technique. For my drawing class I'm doing a series of 24 drawings based around the subject of spirituality. I'm also doing a series of anatomical drawings for a life drawing class. These drawings are in progress, I think I might add more color and find an interesting way to mount them, but I had the camera out so I figured I'd show everyone what I'm working on.

I am currently working on a project of 24 ink drawing all around the subject of spirituality, I've also been practicing my ability to draw anatomical diagrams so get ready for some exciting stuff in the very near future. but here are a few samples of work from last semester.i'm also working on getting better at taking accurate photos of the work hopefully the quality should improve.

 Detail of "The Rise and Fall" 



 "study of a draped mannequin" dip pen  and watercolor 14x17"


 "study of a draped mannequin 2" white charcoal on black illustration board 20x30" 

I wish i had a more clear picture of this and the one above it. Both studies were and experimentation in contour lines hatching, there are very detailed, and the second has a fullness that really shows up in person. 
"Where Did All the Passion Go?" dip pen and india ink 14x17

This is my first ever tattoo design made for Robbie Sadaka and based off of the atmosphere song "Trying to find a balance". 

 "Why Can't We Be Friends" dip pen and india ink 14x17"
