I have searched for videos on how to start using a dip pen, and boy have I seen a lot. This video by far, is the best I found so far. Very helpful. Thank you

Thank you, Marzi! I have some well-loved pens and nibs from a yard sale, and I don't want to dishonor the memory of their previous owner by misusing them! I am excited to learn!

I almost gave up on calligraphy as a hobby. I could never get the ink to work. Then I started watching youtube videos and they all said to clean the nib before writing with ink. I used glass cleaner and I can finally write with my pen.

I both a calligraphy pen, with different fronts and the ink comes like a regular pen, ussefull for travels. And it is for lefthanded. I got the pens with nibs from my mom, but the venetian glasspen went to a dear friend who did love it as a memory of her beloved friend. So i now it is in good hands. I just started so funny mistakes are there. I'm thinking to get classes nearby, only hopefully it works out.

+MadebyMarzipan I'm wondering something. You said by the alphabet when doing the downstroke you should thicken the line ,why didn't you thicken it on both sides of the A ? or can't you thicken both sides of a letter but only 1 side of your choice?

Some tips for you:1. When writing italic, it is the paper that you should turn and NEVER your hand or the pen.2. India ink is hard to clean.3. A slanted writing surface is better than a flat one, because your pen is mostly parallel to the ground when you write on a slanted surface.Nice calligraphy though

buy gum arabic and you mix it with your ink don't pour too much. I would recommend doing it little by little and stirring well and write on a regular paper until the ink doesn't bleed. so you don't have to buy special calligraphy paper. I hope you someone try it . it will save you money on paper
