Practicing my Flexing...

 

Some hand written quotes.

 

 

 

Very handsome, very stylish and elegant. Flex nibs can be so expressive, right? I have a few flex and semi-flex nibs that make my penmanship look better than it really is...

Ah yes, David, the pens must fit your personality, not theirs. Very attractive writing with that firm nib!

 

And if you want to get rid of that pesky flex nib pen, let me know... ;)

Swan + firm nib = beak ???

After owning the super-flex for a mere hour I would have accepted your offer to dispose of it but I have since resolved to learn to use it, though I don't think that I'll ever grow to love it. If divorce looms, you'll be the first to know. :-)

A sample of my current simple cursive. My printing is exceptionally neat from years of lab notebooks, but I don't have a photo here.

Yes, and if Halloween HBJ decides against it, I want to be the back up person! I dream of a Mabie Todd Swan with a very flexible nib!

It certainly is a wonderful pen. It fills my dreams too, but with nightmares! :-) I'm hoping that this might change if I learn how to use it. It seems to take both skill and patience.

 

I'm 58 and until now I have been unaware of the wide world of pens, nibs, and writing styles that lies out there. I love this section of the forum.

 

Cheers, David.

Today's piece, done with Pelikan 4001 Brown. It's quickly becoming my new favourite brown, especially considering its price point (less than 4 bucks for 62.5ml!)

Love your poem.....

 

 

EDIT: To add a picture with a more accurate representation of the ink colour.
