Blackletter "practice"

This is from early 2023.  Was just having fun with my Pilot Parallel pen.

Mixing script with Blacklettering.

Original (walnut ink and leftover cartridge color).

Morning has broken

 a little tbt action...

I (re) did this piece in 2006, as I originally lettered in hs (see below, at end).
I've always loved the song, and wanted to practice my pp uncial (which I also love!)

Not the best pics (b/c of camera and light), but done on a pretty blue paper.

Lettered the cap M in a versal uncial. Not sure what ink I used, but I'm guessing India.

Fun little video I created for an IG story.


And here is my original attempt (with regular uncial and an italic cap for the M):
Yikes!

Curiosity quote (Brody pen)

Another piece from my healing journal... 

Messed up my "O" (grrr.) as i thought to do in red after. Love how the rest turned out though! (including my italic!)

Trial sketch in walnut ink.

As it Was.

Did this piece for Nele as part of the Harry Styles bundle I sent her in March.

Was just playing with my slant tip PP and I decided to make into a piece for her.

Sketch. The inks look better with this one. (Go figure.)
