Handwritten: Your Favourite Quotes


JLukeW

Recommended Posts

Hi all! I'm giving English lessons to an Iranian man who loves to jot down quotes and expressions that he finds interesting. Last week, he said he wanted to learn how to write and read cursive -- something he's worked on before, but has struggled with.



I'd love it if you'd pitch in and jot down a quote or two on paper for him to practice reading! I'll send him this way, and he can practice deciphering our beautiful (and often not-so-beautiful) writing.



Yo! Has your Persian student benefited?

HanhPhuc, That's a great dark teal. What ink is that? Also, nice copperplate-like form on your miniscule letter "p".

I have been meaning to travel off lately and thus today’s thought is inspired from travel. The thought is kinda a reminder to myself to get a travel plan in place and the target is to travel to Cherrapunji and nearby areas and also get to see living root bridges.



The thought for today was penned down via Kaweco Sports Skyline inked with Diamine Monaco Red. It is a beautiful mint coloured special edition pen and is now also available in India.

These pen are amazing value for money. And are especially suited for rough usage.

The quote is by Ashtavakra , one of the learned man as mentioned in Mahabharata.

Bobje, sorry for my slow response

 

It's an obscure ink brand from Vietnam. I mixed thr blue with a little bit of black to achieve the dark teal color
