I forget how amazing it feels to write with the pilot falcon nib after the Spencerian modification from John Motttishaw. When pen people talk about Writing Experience, non-pen people must think we are exaggerating. But it is accurate to describe this as “transcendent”. It was impossible to get a cursor in the middle of his name with my finger on this device to remove the extra T, so whatever. #fountainpen #fountainpens #penaddict #pilotfalcon #spenceriangrind #spencerianmodification #strathmorepaper #cursivehandwriting #freehandcalligraphy #calligraphy #calligraphyvideo #handwritingvideo #flexnibvideo #flexnib #flexnibwriting #lettering #zoyanailpolish #everydayzoya #artist #artistsoninstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CGVRotrDD6y/?igshid=15dbqpvlg2geq

The handmade mug I’ve drawn is a favorite for mornings as the shape and materials keep tea warmer for longer. “Warmth” on the inside physically and emotionally, feeling warmth coming to you, coming from you. This is my concept for today. #penandink #drawing #sketch #calligraphy #penaddict #dailydrawing #dailydoodle #fountainpens #crosshatch #lifedrawing #quicksketch #pilotfalcon #spenceriangrind #spencerianmodification #bunguboxtipsy #fountainpen #flexnib #strathmorepaper #flexnibwriting #flexnibdrawing #calligraphy #freehandcalligraphy #handwriting #artist #artistsofinstagram #currentthoughts #artsupplyposse https://www.instagram.com/p/CN2sRakj8ti/?igshid=4g44hrefk3gr

A drawing representing Gentle Guidance today, because asking for help is hard enough as it is. Of the bigger bottle and smaller vial that I’ve drawn, which do you suppose is giving the guidance? Which receiving? Also it’s #flexnibfriday so here is an amazing flex nib! #penandink #drawing #sketch #calligraphy #penaddict #dailydrawing #dailydoodle #fountainpens #crosshatch #lifedrawing #quicksketch #pilotfalcon #spenceriangrind #spencerianmodification #bunguboxtipsy #fountainpen #flexnib #strathmorepaper #flexnibwriting #flexnibdrawing #calligraphy #freehandcalligraphy #handwriting #artist #artistsofinstagram #currentthoughts https://www.instagram.com/p/CK62AXJjYnz/?igshid=v3aeemzv1n6i

“Varying degrees of complexity “ is a good kind of project to have. It is also the way a drawing is built up; with simple shapes and growing details and relationships of the marks. #penandink #drawing #sketch #calligraphy #penaddict #dailydrawing #dailydoodle #fountainpens #crosshatch #lifedrawing #quicksketch #pilotfalcon #spenceriangrind #spencerianmodification #bunguboxtipsy #fountainpen #flexnib #strathmorepaper #flexnibwriting #flexnibdrawing #calligraphy #freehandcalligraphy #handwriting #artist #artistsofinstagram #currentthoughts https://www.instagram.com/p/CIgdl5NDFVJ/?igshid=1h0do0jz0co9y

The words in this drawing: perspective shift Literally I started drawing the pen at a different angle than it appeared, and corrected it mid-drawing. In the greater sense, we aren’t able to grow without it. Worthy goal, worthy practice. #penandink #drawing #sketch #calligraphy #penaddict #dailydrawing #dailydoodle #fountainpens #crosshatch #lifedrawing #quicksketch #pilotfalcon #spenceriangrind #spencerianmodification #bunguboxtipsy #fountainpen #flexnib #strathmorepaper #flexnibwriting #flexnibdrawing #calligraphy #freehandcalligraphy #handwriting #artist #artistsofinstagram #currentthoughts #perspectiveshift https://www.instagram.com/p/CIQ_iZMDoAj/?igshid=fwetzqsr1fkz

This drawing of pens in my daily use pen jar with the words “using our voices together” is of course this time about voting and not singing. The pens are leaning against each other and supporting one another. Metaphor! #penandink #drawing #sketch #calligraphy #penaddict #dailydrawing #dailydoodle #fountainpens #crosshatch #lifedrawing #quicksketch #pilotfalcon #spenceriangrind #spencerianmodification #bunguboxtipsy #fountainpen #flexnib #strathmorepaper #flexnibwriting #flexnibdrawing #calligraphy #freehandcalligraphy #handwriting #artist #artistsofinstagram #currentthoughts https://www.instagram.com/p/CHD4N9CDi2e/?igshid=5lzsknrlzckf

Levels of detail; not always about the foreground. My line drawing example of this has detail focus set to the cymbidium orchid furthest back. Field of Focus selection is not just for cameras and binoculars, you see. I’ll leave it to you to extrapolate the concept into daily life. #penandink #drawing #sketch #calligraphy #penaddict #dailydrawing #dailydoodle #fountainpens #crosshatch #lifedrawing #quicksketch #pilotfalcon #spenceriangrind #spencerianmodification #bunguboxtipsy #fountainpen #flexnib #strathmorepaper #flexnibwriting #flexnibdrawing #calligraphy #freehandcalligraphy #handwriting #artist #artistsofinstagram #currentthoughts https://www.instagram.com/p/CGiEnLpDHId/?igshid=lvds66l31evo

Receptacles: what do you have that is waiting to be filled? Something less mundane than these cups I use for cleaning pens in this drawing, I imagine. #penandink #drawing #sketch #calligraphy #penaddict #dailydrawing #dailydoodle #fountainpens #crosshatch #lifedrawing #quicksketch #pilotfalcon #spenceriangrind #spencerianmodification #bunguboxtipsy #fountainpen #flexnib #strathmorepaper #flexnibwriting #flexnibdrawing #calligraphy #freehandcalligraphy #handwriting #artist #artistsofinstagram #currentthoughts https://www.instagram.com/p/CGVRl1mjLBD/?igshid=hvx8khy38nsx
