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.

Bridge over the Lhen Trench


Bridge over the Lhen Trench
 Bridge over the Lhen Trench
The Lhen Trench in the northern part  of the Isle of Man. It passes under this bridge to the sea. This is such a fascinating spot. I've heard stories that the Vikings use to bring their boats up this narrow spot from the sea.

Tholtan, Isle of Man


Pen and Ink of a Tholtan, Isle of Man


Another popular Tholtan on the island, but does anyone know where it is?  I have done several pen and ink sketches of this location which is one of my favourite spots on the island.
