A house in California. I think I would freak out if some random person posted an awkward drawing of my house online. But also, I worry too much.

I drew this with a Pilot G2 pen. I generally like runny-ink pens and the G2 is supposed to be a good pen, but I do not understand why. The ink doesn’t flow smoothly and I have a harder time achieving any sort of subtlety. I used to have some non-retractable pens (the Pilot precise, probably V5) that I bought from Walmart or wherever, and they were pretty good. I guess if I want to be real artsy-farsty I could invest in Microns or something, but I don’t generally worry about “unparalleled archival quality” and the like.
