Writing an Address in Bouncy Pointed Pen Calligraphy to Make Mail Art

In this video, I'm writing an address using iron gall ink (thepostmansknock.com/catalog/..., a Brause EF66 nib (thepostmansknock.com/catalog/..., and an oblique pen (thepostmansknock.com/catalog/.... It's all in real time; only the re-dips have been edited out.
Why edit out re-dips? Because sometimes I use re-dips as an opportunity to take a sip of water, answer a quick email, or whatever. It's too much to ask you to sit here to wait while I do that! :) I do hope, though, that observing this real-time writing pace provides you with a genuine sense of the flow and techniques involved in creating beautiful calligraphy.

What's the point of having the nib so far off to the side?

Hello Lindsay, Im an Australian who. lives in Switzerland, and I find it so disappointing that all the tools you list aren't available here in Europe! Having a KZbin channel means people from all over the world can profit from the wonderful videos on all sorts of topics and increase their knowledge in so many things...IF you are only selling YOUR products on your channel and you want us who don't live in the States to benefit from your really well done videos then the tools used should be available to us! The videos are not much use if we can't put into practice what we're learning from you if we can't get the tools of "must haves"! I hope you can understand the dilemma!? Why not have International Postage if your goal is to reach people all over the world with your skills? kind regards Robyn

Hi Robyn! TPK does ship internationally. However, I completely understand not wanting to pay customs fees and wait for a long time for packages to arrive, so there is a page on my website listing international merchants. You can peruse that here: thepostmansknock.com/calligraphy-supplies/. :) Happy shopping!
