So beautiful, Erica! And clever.

Did you digitize this at all, or is each one done by hand? I love the gradient of the inks.

Actually Elaina, The entire piece was digitally created! I did all of the calligraphy in Procreate. Then I pulled it into Photoshop where I used a “style” layer to create the watercolor variant effect. I also used a Procreate brush to create the flowers. I took a photo of the Brause Rose nib and did some Photoshop on it to give it a watercolor look. The only thing done with a real pen was the pen splat!
