2003 - Fibre-tip pen - 23cm x 16cm

Another DSA-paper illustration. It's about a medieval maneuver to practice the siege of a castle. That's why the woman only has a wooden sword. But even she didn't expect that the castle ruins would be guarded by sheep... ;-)

GO SHEEP! Nice picture, I like the inking job.

:-) Esther S. Brendel (Maiden name: Esther S. Wetzel) replies: "Thank you Catherine! It was the first I did with this sharp black/white technique since a very long time. Though it's not real ink I used. It's just felt-tipped pen."

...Sheep? Cool! I really like that ink style, I could never get it right! For now... I'm sticking with pencils and watercolor...

:-) Esther S. Brendel (Maiden name: Esther S. Wetzel) replies: "I have just recently tarted to draw that way. Mainly because of that DSA magazine. They need the illustrations in sharp black and white. It's easier than I thought... at least with a little bit of practice, and with a preliminary pencil sketch of course. ;-)"
