Pen and Ink is our sixth filter offered by Snap Art. This particular filter is more inclined to be used with portraits and things with a lower amount of lines and edges. The facial areas of a subject and body are probably the ideal target for this type of effect, but it could still be used with just about anything, depending on the artists skill of illustration and conveyance.

Pen And Ink Basic Settings

A total of 25 predefined filter settings (including the default filter) are available to you for immediate viewing and comparison.

I decided to choose the Dense Strokes setting and it seemed to work rather well.
