File No. 1038 - Drawing Tools

Choosing the things that surround me is important.
Choosing my tools when I draw is essential. The pencil must be perfectly soft; it will support the stroke.
The felt-tip pen will ink, will add color. This is the one I use precisely because I know it won't leave a trace;
I use this Lipstick shade more often than others.
The ballpoint pen: it will emphasize a line, a shadow.
While these tools are selected for their practical qualities,
it's also their aesthetic appeal that I find; I find them beautiful, like close friends.
