Dead silence in the last couple of weeks, hey.
I have been working on my ascenders (L's by any other name) on 3 mm square graph paper. I'd noticed that when I charted the letters A-L that I wasn't curving it properly on the bigger graph paper.
Should have practised that curving on bigger graph paper to start with, not on the 1.5 mm graph paper!
Oh well, live and learn :-)
Have to use a speedball nib coz it's the only one I've got of the right size, and the wobbliness is driving me NUTS. Good for Italic, not so good for G.T.Q.
Anyway, I've got two different sets of visitors from interstate at the moment. Kit and Jon have already been here for awhile, and Nick arrived yesterday. So I'm spending my time in the kitchen and socialising rather than at my calligraphy desk .....
