Thank You Alphonso Dunn! A Pen & Ink Review

Working through Alphonso Dunn's Pen & Ink Workbook for about an hour per day for five months was a fantastic experience. In this video, I provide a quick review of my experience and a quick thumb through of the final drawing exercises as they turned out in my sketch book. Thanks for watching and thanks Alphonso Dunn! Buy his books everyone. You won't regret it.

During my Trans America Trail Trip this summer I attempted Engineer Pass in Colorado on my 2004 BMW GS Adventure motorcycle with fully loaded cases.
