These are all so beautiful! I do not know whether I am utterly inspired by the amazing art and lettering or completely discouraged because I could never draw that well :) I love all of the illustrations! I wish these were all in book form!

I've done another word, selfish:

I like your contributions, too. I like how you drew the capital S in Selfish, with the cascading curlicues.

Today's word is EXPERIENCE.

An eye for insignificant details is a good sign you will do just fine in medical school...

As a sharp wit and powerful sarcasm is a sign that you already have.

New letter, yay! Today's word is FAIRY. I used one of Ariel Kullock's fantasy Parker 51s. The design is a mischievous devil and a skeleton. For now, you get to see only its pitchfork. The ink is Iroshizuku tsukushi.

You know I love your drawings, but that Kullock cap is great! I love that skeleton! What does the devil look like? (Or are we not supposed to know? Or do we...?)

I have a new word today, FAMOUS. Apologies for the quality of the picture, traveling means smartphone pics and I am not a very good photographer. The pen is made of red micarta.

I was incredibly honored to have a chance to see the book (or, rather, books) in person last night, and hold them in my own hands. They are even more amazing in person than they are on the screen -- something that didn't seem possible. I still contend this needs to be published upon completion.

I had the privilege of seeing these works in person at the LA Pen Show, and I can say that they are even more whimsical and delightful in person than one sees here online.

 

Kudos ! :notworthy1:

Today's/yesterday's word is FASHION. It was great meeting those I met at the LA Pen Show. I had a blast and ended up with a few new toys (Like the red Micarta Stylo Art).

As for the devil... Well, here it is. He is quite mischievous. I really like Ariel Kullock's art work. Sorry for the bad image stitching. I do not know how to do that, but I imagine you can get the idea.

Ok, it was just ridiculously fun to meet Plistumi this weekend in LA! A great way to meet was over dinner, and as she shared 'the books' for us to look at, it did become clear how tactile and vibrant her artform is in person. Both a joy and an honor, and what a nice and interesting person.

 

I hope we'll meet up again! (Someplace warm, eh, Pli?) :)

It was nice meeting you too, Jon. And if it is warm, it is for me! Today's word is FEAST. This red micarta pen from Stylo Art is really nice to write with...and look at. It is polished and feels nice and soft!

      On my second trip to Japan in seven months, while the going is good

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
