I haven't "doodled" much in the past handful of years, but when I have in the past they have generally been repetitive geometrical type things, or an ugly little hard to describe thingy I color in.

 

Here is my first ever "zentangle", finished from one of the official demos of "betweed" and finished using a handful of other patterns found on tanglepatterns.com. All done with Stipula Passaporto F nib and Calamo DC Show Gray ink. Bonus: hidden tiny Bozo!

That is cooler to me than anything I have ever drawn freehand. Perhaps I've just spent too much time sitting in a motionless car while it rained.

 

 

Thanks, however they are just basically copying the demo of how to do that pattern; nothing original in those at that point. They look very close to the same as the official Zentangle demo/instructions. If I can do that, anyone can.

 

AH, I love it. It's like Where's Bozo instead of Waldo.

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

Great pen!

dcpritch = After our discussion on the scalloped cap lips on Italian pens, I found this one. ;)

Don Johnson, eh?

 

Here's the view from the Testarossa last time I took her out on the lake (yes, this is an actual ice road on a large lake):

Probably definitely didn't need to take three pens to work today, but it is always fun to have options!

Made the nib a little wetter already.... But I am starting to like the pen. Feels good in the hand.

I am no longer very active on FPN but feel free to message me. Or send me a postal letter!
