Come explore the strength and versatility of the pointed pen, not only in its traditional forms but also in traditionally non-pointed pen styles. Letterforms which are normally executed with a broad-edged pen take on a whole new flavor and presence with the pointed pen. Those dignified and glorious Romans, with or without serifs, Capitals or Babies, so formal and sometimes so aloof, fairly dance off the page when dripping out of a pointed pen. Their energy can hardly be contained! This tool is masterful in creating thick and thin strokes which play against and with each other. It's all about contrast and conformity...making each stroke a part of the whole. Let’s have fun!
