pen and ink from Isle of Man

Welcome to inkmann art, my blog about all things pen & ink. I'm a fountain pen collector, and enjoy using them for my sketches. My name 'Inkmann' echoes the Isle of Man, where I live. This Island's landscape, coast and heritage are my main inspiration, and the abandoned homesteads, known as Tholtans here, are a subject I often return too. My pen collection is growing alongside the different inks I can't resist, as pen and ink is my favourite medium. But I am also a fan of digital art and watercolour, and sometimes combine all three mediums to gain the effect I like. If you would like to get in touch, please contact me, Andrew, via the email link, inkmann@manx.net thanks.

Maughold Isle of Man

 Maughold


Maughold  Isle of Man by Manx Artist inkmann@manx.net
This is a sketch I took yesterday while it was dry, because only a few moments earlier had experienced a typical Manx winter weather, rain wind and a light sprinkling of hailstones for a few minutes followed by beautiful bright sunshine with calmness. Maughold Church is in the background I believe it dates back to 12th century. Location of many Celtic crosses in the churchyar
