Uhhhh ... Bob. You were the first one to post a reply to your Muhammad Ali quotation. I was the next one (and the last one, for that matter). Do you want to offer another QOTW, or should I do so?

I'm not sure my writing qualifies as calligraphy...yet (καλός = beautiful/ γραφή=writing). Please bear with me.

pen: Noodler's ebonite Konrad, #10 Dixie rebellion red ripple armed with a Goulet 1.1mm nib

ink: ESSRI

As someone who is struggling to learn a basic script, thanks very much for these examples. They are inspiring.

Hello,

 

is faux calligraphy allowed in this thread?

 

fpn_1521497258__pelikan_4001_rot_mix_act

 

PS: If the color looks wacky, it's because the first line has been written with a 3 drops Pelikan 4001 Braun addendum, while the rest was written with 3 drops of Diamine Midnight.

Pen is Faber-Castell Loom <M>.

Paper is Clairefontaine 90g/m.
