It's my favorite color - along with being Irish!

Breathe. Take one step at a time. Don't sweat the small stuff. You're not getting older, you are only moving through time. Be calm and positive.

This is THE BOOK to start out with. I am not sure if there are any more in production. The second photo shows a page sample. Third photo is a card I made many moons ago when I started getting interested in pens ( I made many of these). and the last is a sample writting ...dated a few years back". my first pen was an osmiroid ,still own it.

I started out with Fred Eager's book as well. My first pen was a Platignum Italic Set, and I still have it, too! I also have the Osmiroid set, and a couple of Sheaffer sets. :D

The third and final wave drawing. It's a combo of several photographs. I'd say this one is 98% FP and ink, but all the white is gel pen or pencil.post-109445-0-15054700-1406683778_thumb.jpg

 

Here are some earlier stages up close in different light.

Superlative.

I'm nearly speechless.

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

This the tattoo cuff I designed myself and had put on my left wrist a few years ago. It is inspired by the illustrated manuscript "The Book Of Kells", and is a double triptic symbolizing the Christian trinity and the concepts of faith, hope and love. The two cuff ends finish off the Celtic knot work with stylized dog heads in honor of my current pup, Winston, a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. I call them cute and cuter. I consider it a permanent doodle!

So.... what inks are those.... :lticaptd:

I was really hoping someone would ask so I wouldn't have to. But if I was going to ask, I'd probably be most curious about those blues and greens. Just saying....

I think 'mansion' would've been a better word, instead of 'hall' though. Sorry... :blush:

 

@Finalist, the wave drawing of yours turned out beautifully!

I think you should draw a picture of the mansion..

I don't get on with Lamy Safaris but your image and combo almost makes me want to pick up a white one and give it another go . . .

Welcome. :)
