SCRIPT LETTERING, TATTOO STYLE!
My friend Julia from Sakura has turned me on to these new calligraphy pens -made with the same ink as Pigma Microns-so they are permanent and lightfast and they come in 3 sizes and 4 colors ( you can see the color in the above photo) -sweet! I demonstrated them at the Craft and Hobby Association show and while there she took a video of my writing the word Script out.
Basically I wrote out the word script in my handwriting-nothing fancy. I double stroked the letters, and in that opening starting about halfway down I added some horizontal lines inside the letters, Then I added a little wing on the sides of the letters and then filled them with color!
You can buy the new Pigma Calligraphers at Paper and Ink Arts, and also at John Neal Books! you will love them!
Here's the blog premiere of my script writing!
