Stray in India Ink

I've never used India Ink before but I love the look of ink washes, so I thought, why not give it a go.  I was a little heavy handed with the shadow on the little girl, but I like the way her hair turned out.  I'm sure given time, I'll start to get the hang of it.

If anyone has any advice about the application of India Ink washes, I'm all ears!

"Mom, can we keep her? Please!!"
