A few Samples of Recent Italic
galleryHi All!
First up here is part of a Psalm that I wrote out a few weeks ago with a fairly rapid pace. Used Pilot CM nibs in two Kakunos, one inked with Platinum Carbon Black and the other with a mix of De Atrementis Document Red and Document Orange, in an attempt to make a permanent-ish vermillion. Same goes for #3. Papers were Cosmo Air Light and Midori MD, I think, respectively.
2 is a Copic marker with the broad edged calligraphy nib, written on some faux-leather.
I've been plateaued but just read Alfred Fairbank's great book, A Handwriting Manual, and so now have more of an idea of where we go from here. I would like to get back into larger forms and layouts and so plan to read "Layout and Design for Calligraphers" and focus on that for a bit. Thoughts?

Fountain pens for left handed folk?
Hello! My friend’s birthday is coming up and a while back he mentioned something about wanting to use a fountain pen but having trouble due to being left handed? I was wondering if anyone knows why that might’ve been and what I might be able to get him for his birthday within the fountain pen realm. I don’t use them, so is it because of the way they are held? Or how slow the ink dries? Any help is appreciated.
