Pen Sketch
This is a sketch of my favorite pen for filling out forms. It has a really nice triangle grip and a hight ink flow that's very consistent. Its the Uni-ball Gelstick.

$7 Bill
The elusive seven dollar bill is enlarged to be used as a number for my desk in design fundamentals. Assignment: create a three dimensional number to sit on your desk. I chose to make it by folding poster board and painting it a minty green color. Then I took a green pen on one side and a black pen on the other and drew the characters and patterns. I used a one dollar bill for reference.
