In the image below ... I used the new "ruler" to draw the lines on the paper ... and did that with the "pencil" tool as opposed to the pen tool. Next, wrote out the sentence ...

Not bad at all ... I didn't exactly take my time ... if this is what can be done with a finger, I'm getting kind of curious about the new pressure-sensitive Apple Pencil that Master Penman Jake Weidmann demoed with his hummingbird strokes in their Promo Video ...

A thank you note written to Bill Kemp (instructor) after attending a pointed pen calligraphy class at Caste In The Air in Berkeley CA

 

I start concentrating on the writing form so much I forget to pay attention to what I am writing, therefore the word 'outstanding' is used twice in one paragraph...an obvious fail.

"You mustn’t be afraid to dream a little bigger darling.” "Forever optimistic with a theme and purpose." "My other pen is oblique and dippy."
