Inky Thoughts And Choices From The La Pen Show


amberleadavis

Recommended Posts

This year at the LA Pen show, I hosted one of the presentations. My assistants Errant Smudge and Aquitaine are seen here assisting me. Monteverde graciously donated ink.

 

The videos are really weird because they are taken with a 360 camera. So try and move the image around.

 

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

BTW, the movies look better on youtube than on my computer.

 

Here the assistant speaks out ... and we were talking about this pen:

In my mind, I am taller, thinner and younger... OH and much richer.

First time I try these 360° videos, too. Thank you for sharing from those of us on the other side of the pond!

The 360 is really crazy. This was our first time using the camera. It overheated - hence the short clips. Anyway, I hope you enjoyed.

Had to sign in just to say this is hilarious. I think this each and every morning when I see myself in the mirror while shaving. Other things I imagine simply aren't appropriate for a family friendly forum, though.

Hello Amber, nice to finally see you, even if it's unclearly and from a distance...

The sound though was not really capturing you... too bad. I can see you were enjoying giving the presentation/workshop...

Amber, I had so much fun as one of your audience assistants!

 

I have a GoPro camera I wish I had thought of bringing with me. It would have been ideal for recording the event. Maybe next year.

In our minds we are ALL taller, thinner and younger. Well, my height isn't too bad although I seem to have shrunk half an inch (I blame the discectomy for that). And I can probably pass for younger than I really am (the advantage of ash-tone dark blonde/light brown hair is that the grey just sort of blends in B)).

That seemed like a fun class (loved the comment about "crazy stupid inks" :lol:) -- although the shaky 360° camera made me a little urpy, and I had to keep futzing with the volume....
