Repost from @calligraphyhowto, where I share all calligraphy, all the time.

Shown at double speed (pointed pen scripts are SLOW!) Pen: Leonardt EF Principal nib in oblique holder

Ink: Daler-Rowney Pearlescent Ink in White Pearl (it’s sparklier than it appears here)

These Pearlescent colors are so nice to write with! They tend just a tad to the wet side, so watch for blobbing (you can see how the ink flowed just a little too fast at the end of the “l” and the second “c”) Hop over to my @calligraphyhowto Instagram account and leave a comment on my latest name video and you might get YOUR name in calligraphy, too!

@mytcr8tiv asked if I’d try Dr. Ph. Martin’s Copperplate Gold (Iridescent Calligraphy Colors), so that’s what I used here.

Not nearly as exciting when wet—it just looks brown—though it does get more glittery when it dries. A bit watery for my liking, but that could also be because my jar is probably (gulp!) 20 years old!!! ?

#Reposting @calligraphyhowto with @instarepost_app — @jodeesturm I hope you don’t mind my using a Pentel Fude Touch Sign. I know you love those Tombow Dual Brush Pens, but I felt like writing smaller today. ?
