  • I appreciate your kind thoughts and thank you most kindly. I am glad you enjoyed it.

  • Thank you very much. I suggest that you go to the website iampeth.com and take a look at the lessons and you will learn much about how to do this. It just takes time to do it. Begin with the copperplate lessons by some of the old master penmen such as Lupfer or Baird.

  • Thank you very much! I thoroughly enjoy writingin Spencerian.

  • I don't know if you saw my last post for you, but in any case, I use a Palmer #2, sometimes the Leonardt or Principality #1. Thanks for asking! Hope you like the work. Don

  • Thank you. You are correct in your assessment and I truly appreciate your thoughtfulness.  I am so glad you like it! My best to you!

  • Nice work.

    Some artist and still practical writing technic.

  • Very nice! You write so well and so quickly.

  • Calligraphy has always caught my eye, especially Spencerian Script. So, I am a total beginner. I am wondering how you learned the Spencerian font? (Did you get a book on how to do it?) I know there is also several different types of ink out there, what ink would you recommend? I love it! Keep up the good work! :)

  • What kind of nibs do you use?

  • Perfect. The most impressive thing is that one can make this script even with a regular pen and it will still elegant.
