Face #24. Can you tell who he’s impersonating?
Eye candy, for sure! (And unusually go for the dark ones, not the Nordic types.) Drawn from a photo.

#Reposting @calligraphyhowto with @instarepost_app — This one is for @sweetangelbaby and @helloitstiffy ? I had to more than double speed it to get it to 30 seconds — calligraphy is slow!
Pen: Pigma Brush
Paper: Strathmore 400 Layout pad
You can see guidelines through the paper — those are mine, but you can get yourself a set, PLUS my Pointed Brush Copperplate Basic Strokes exemplars for FREE, at http://bit.ly/1U0olPy

Face #23. Who is this impersonating—can you tell? (I’ve decided that I draw portraits of impersonators. ?) My subject was a drawing of a famous person by Christopher Sia.

** #Reposting @calligraphyhowto with @instarepost_app ** This Pigma Brush pen came in a set of markers I bought to get my beloved Pigma Microns in different sizes. I was focusing on abstract b&w drawings (you can see several of them at my @a_creative_life IG account) and ignored the brush pen for the most part… Until I started doing calligraphy again!
Now it feels like a big score — like finding a $20 bill in your pocket. ?
Nice, flexible tip; deep black (archival) ink. What’s not to like?
Because the tip is long and flexible, it’s a little harder to get fine lines — flexible=not as easy for beginners as not-so-flexible. But still worth checking out.
