Do you make prints of these for sale, and if so, how can I obtain one?

 

I especially like the 2nd one of the three :D .....

Breathe. Take one step at a time. Don't sweat the small stuff. You're not getting older, you are only moving through time. Be calm and positive.

An exquisite drawing, indeed. Might I ask if it was done entirely freehand or was a template of some sort used? In any event, nicely done!

I really love the impressive detail. It requires a lot of patience.

When I first showed my g/f this photo ( she loves to draw) she said He did that with a FP?!

 

I think we are slowly converting someone haha

'The Yo-Yo maneuver is very difficult to explain. It was first perfected by the well-known Chinese fighter pilot Yo-Yo Noritake. He also found it difficult to explain, being quite devoid of English.

So we left it at that. He showed us the maneuver after a sort. B*****d stole my kill.'

great drawing and great pen ;)

Pens are like watches , once you start a collection, you can hardly go back. And pens like all fine luxury items do improve with time

SO much respect for you and your work right now.

 

I've recently spent 4 hours a day replicating 4 Greek stamps. I knew line drawing was a skill and have now realised how much work you must have invested into this stunning image.

So, here I am another time, with another Seahorse. This is a Virgilian one. "Fit sonitus spumante salo" ("There's a roar from the foaming sea") is a quote from the episode of Laocoön's death in the Aeneid (Book II, line 209).

 

 

For the fellows interested in seeing the previous Seahorses, they are here and here.

 

 

Spectacular, all three! Both the watch and fountain pen are things that can be bought, but your talent is priceless.

Hello, I’ve owned several Omega watches also but did not keep any. However I’ve always enjoyed the sea monster. Your drawings are amazing. I’m also a lover of that kind of drawings/engravings live the ones of Dürer and always wondered wether it is possible to achieve with a FP. You’ve answered that question!

Your work is awesome!

May I ask you the width of your thin strokes, my mb149 with its fine nib seems to leave strokes on the paper that are 5 times wider than yours...

      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

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @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
