@AnasaziWrites Always a joy to see your contributions! I’ve yet to use anything but Tom Norton’s Walnut ink, having only recently gotten pointed pen working to some level of consistency, but can only imagine how stunning colors and mixtures of colors must look on paper. For now, trying not to change up the infinite variables … but one day!
@Lucie Y Those hairlines! THOSE. HAIR. LINES!! I appreciate your having shared the pictures from two angles to give a sense of the beauty and shimmer of the ink. A Flourish Forum member (you know who you are) had once DM’d me to ask if ever I’d seen a “real-life” Spencerian example of ink on paper and most graciously mailed a few, since I had not. Yes, photos will just never capture this, and your “Flame” must be simply magnificent in person.
@K-2 Birds! And that lover bird is just splendid! Our local birds are mainly clothed in survival camouflage, so to see such lively colors is enchanting.
@tiffany.c.a It is my pleasure, truly, to see Spencerian represented here in Inktober 2022 -- thank you for your contributions. And your flourish work on Day 2 was impressive! For me, there is so much ahead to continue to learn and improve with writing the script alone, that I doubt I’ll ever have time to explore that special component of the writing arts. For now, I’ll just wipe the drool off of my iPad.
@Erica McPhee Inktober or Protober (Padtober?), your work is invariably inspirational and motivational! Hoping my forays into the more ornamental majuscules will lead me, one day, into such effortless (appearing
) flourishes in an ornamental style of penmanship. Brava!
