Faithful blog followers may have noticed the lettering on my pages has gotten bigger and more colorful.  I've been trying to teach myself Calligraphy, a friend Elly in New York has helped me a lot, sharing charts and practice exercises. I practice a lot on junk mail envelopes.  This Pilot parallel pen is my largest pen, but I have even larger Zip Calligraphy markers in several colors, as well as a smaller 2mm Nib on a Lamy Joy pen.  I spend time copying letters over and over some letters are easier for me than others.
Tomorrow I have jury duty, no phones, cameras, iPads allowed in the courtroom… hopefully a pencil, pen and sketchbook will be allowed.
