Ink Lines and Angles

I had fun at the drafting table today, drawing lines with my dip pen. It is tricky drawing with a nib dipped in ink. But I have a special straight edge, in the form of a triangle that has edges curved underneath so the ink does not infiltrate between the triangle and the paper.  However, the edge of the triangle did get inky. I had to wipe it off after every pass.

Each set of lines converge. Some form triangles. Some of the lines are triangular as well.

I am sure I can do more with this composition, but I don’t want to rush it. I think I’ll live with it a while to see if any ideas present themselves.
