Using a dip pen for the first time... with the same noodler's ink: 'heart of darkness'. I bought this pen set (isn't it great!) a year, or rather two years ago on vacation and I am finally daring to try it out. I love the way it looks sitting on my art desk. It actually makes a more even line than I expected. I had to try to make the varying thickness and splatters!
a blog about art, photography, quilting, wood carving, autism, mandalas, needle-felting and finding the small magic in life...
Fun. Make a great Christmas card. xox
