Today's progress: ink.
![[sketch] strawberries, with ink a sketch of two strawberry leaves, two strawberries, and a flower, now inked](https://kaberett.dreamwidth.org/file/600x600/104892.jpg)
I had to take a medium-length break before inking the final strawberry bracts, because my hindbrain was Very Convinced that there was a Tiger; further decisions about whether I'm going to leave it black-and-white (with some more inked detail?) or colour it in are being left for tomorrow.
I am noodling away gently at the similarities between the iterative process of "pencil blobs -- pencil slightly more defined shapes -- refine shapes further -- consider ink" and that of writing. I am proud of myself for Doing A Thing that I apparently found really quite scary; I am proud also that I can look at it and see Things I Like and Things I've Learned, rather than Everything That's Wrong. Gosh but it's nice to have got here.
