• I've decided to do a post about my take on modern calligraphy for today. I'll try to sound a bit light, hahaha! I know how appealing the modern script is and how it seems welcoming, but I believe that it's quite technical too. It's not really just about making the letters jump alternately or making the sizes of the strokes vary. Modern calligraphy/freehand calls for balance and composition, and those two things come with mindful and conscious study. I always think of modern calligraphy as my child--I need to tame it and train it so the loops aren't too wild. I also still need to make sure that the strokes are all smooth. My modern letters are just morphed versions of the traditional forms that I am *trying* to study. I'd like to think that I am just tweaking the principles of traditional styles when I do my freehand, which is why I still *try* to study such styles. It's really more of me wanting to know the rules of the traditional styles well enough so I know how to get away with breaking them, ha! (Even in calligraphy, a bad girl through and through.) I used Dr. PH Martin's Bleed Proof White, a Nikko G nib and a no-fuss MP Sull oblique holder. -@dyosaimma #ScribeIGTakeover #IWriteWithScribe

  • Today's post is about the brush pen that changed the game for me--the Platinum CF5000. It has an aluminum body and a marbled and gold finish. It shies away from the typical brush pen look, but its the ink flow and the quality of its brush that really made me love it so. -@dyosaimma
