"The Inking Room" is an online art show hosted on Livestream, specializing in sketched and inked line art, watercolors, ink wash, and occasionally digital mediums. It is hosted by myself and my wife, Whitney.
During the show, we will:
- Draw and ink artwork for my personal comic projects, including Peter and Company, The Chronicles of Ademar, and any other projects I may have on my plate.
- Draw random nonsensical and occasionally off-color sketches as warmups, or just spend the entire two hours doing so if it's "one of those days."
- Listen to music and occasionally sing. You can tell me to stop.
- Request feedback and take requests from the viewing audience via the chatroom.
- Schedule live tutorials of traditional and digital art techniques.
- Try to keep the two hours as entertaining as possible.
I also typically record each show and post the saved video to the blog here after each broadcast. That way those who were unable to attend the show can catch up on what was missed.
Tonight was a very fun evening. Whitney and I worked together to produce a single piece of artwork: she drew the initial sketch, and I handled the inking and painting. For an upcoming show we plan on switching roles (I’ll draw, and she’ll paint in watercolors). As always, the process was recorded for those who are interested in seeing how it was done and weren’t able to tune in.
And the final product:

Thank you for this very informative video. It has helped me greatly understand the ink wash process!
