A Flourishing Weekend

Pointed Pen Diaries LogoSooner Scribes in Oklamoma City hosted a flourshing field flourishworkshop with Linda Schneider. So I packed the Jeep and off I go to enjoy two fun-filled days with my pens and some new friends. Picked up several great tips and tricks which I'm anxious to use.

The art of flourishing has finally been demystified. Supplies needed are minimal, but your imagination must be fully engaged. Most any monoline writing tool can get you started … pen, pencil, micron, you get the idea. Be brave, try it with the pointed pen. The desired fluidity comes from the arm movement, not your wrist. Barely touch the pen to the paper, and let the magic happen. Choose the finest nib in your collection. I used the Gillot 303. The EF 66 was so used. Linda called the EF 66, "tiny, yet mighty."
