Pointed Pen with Joy Deneen

Edmonton Calligraphy Society hosted Joy Deneen to teach us Pointed pen work. Of course I didn't follow along like I should have and just stayed in my "zone". I have a hard time with my patience for minutiae... It wasn't till close to the end that I realized my ascenders and descenders should have been longer. sigh!!

ECS Envelope Exchange - Oct 2021

ECS Envelope Exchange - Oct 2021

Since I took a ZOOM class with Bill Kemp teaching Gwen Weaver style writing hosted by the ECS, I thought I'd practice my lettering BIG GRIN. It's a fun style. There a few things I'd probably change for readability... (that "f" looks like a "p"). The insert is a Triptych ATC. I'm liking making those. Lots of room for me to play...
