Post 5 (both me & P&I), various samples

For my page, i only used the first photo, then referred viewers to my P&I post. 

This post is a sampling of styles with 3 different pens. Clockwise from top: 1) & 2) Horizon folded nib, 3) ruling pen, and 4) Ruling Writer. 

New alpha exemplar using RW.

Another exemplar with Horizon folded pen.

Lastly, gestural script exemplar with ruling pen.

see comments below regarding this.

This post includes different alphabets and lettering styles with the various folded pens I’ve discussed so far. Swipe to see samples.

The “gestural script” sample (last pic) was a bit of a happy accident. I was practicing with my ruling pen and must not have rinsed out all the pearlescent ink I was using. When I went to use walnut ink, this is how it turned out! (*Note: If you want to get this effect while lettering, put a little metallic ink in the pen first, then add other ink – or vice versa. More on this technique later…)
.
*Also, a note on cleaning your pens: Be sure to rinse well and dry thoroughly after each use. Depending on the ink (especially acrylic or metallic inks), I may also clean them with a little Windex and/or a toothbrush. If ink does tend to build up on them, soak in some white vinegar (for at least an hour), and that does wonders!

*Check out the P&I blog (you'll have to scroll) to see their layout of all my pieces. (I would take a screen shot & post here, but it won't fit on the screen.) -- https://www.paperinkartsblog.com/2021/08/10/ruling-and-folded-pens-with-leslie-from-olovey1/
