Congratulations everybody with International Handwriting Day! (23.01) - the best way to celebrate it is to write something

 

(Esterbrook Estie Ebony w|custom Stub nib and Diamine Matador)

 

Handwriting Day was invented in 1977 when educators began to feel that the art of handwriting was getting lost as a skill. The Writing Instrument Manufacturers Association (WIMA) decided to do something about this, and that is how Handwriting Day came about. While not everyone celebrates this day, it is taking more prominence now, and more people than ever are taking part.

According to historians, the art of handwriting was invented in 3400 BC in Mesopotamia where they would write cuneiform on a clay tablet. From there, the art of writing spread to Egypt, then Rome, and then the rest of Europe. As handwriting spread throughout Europe, good writing skills became a sign of status, as royal families were the only ones taught to write properly. In the 1700s the world’s first handwriting and penmanship schools were formed to train scribes.

I think I misread the assignment. Is there a place for art about fountain pens? 😅

[inkstainedruth]

If you were to draw a picture of your pen(s) this would probably be the place to post the drawing.  But mostly the thread is about what people have drawn using their FPs.

Thanks for the reply, Ruth! I think I'll leave this forum free of my doodles, as it's already doing a splendid job with the impressive art-by-fountain-pens.

Thanks! I really like my resulting hybrid from Pilot Falcon, but I like my ground Capless even more! I was convinced once again this weekend.🤘
