have you all survived the Christmas days?
I've been working. Today is my only day off and tomorrow I'm back to work for another 5 days before getting a break. It would normally be 6 days /48 hours, but I managed to take off my last nightshift.
I organized my desk this morning to make room for some Christmas presents , which were- no surprise= art supplies ;)
Like this beautiful calligraphy set with a real owl feather
Obviously I had to try it out ! I will need to practice more with this ...
The definition of lettering : The goal of Hand lettering is to turn letters into visual art ....not my design though. It's from the book "The ABCs of Hand lettering" .
I copied from the book as lettering practice and want to frame this and hang it over my desk.
here another qp for a little look what's inside this kit

Thank you for these parts. Happy New Year!
We survived Christmas days fine.
You are getting rather good already in the lettering. I once did a bit of calligraphy, had a practice book too, it is nice to do. And yes, it starts "boring"with the strokes and such but you really need it later
The pen with real feather is beautiful. But it needs ki dof different "handling"than a straight forward calligraphy pen. You will get the hang of it.
It is misty outside, not nice weather. Still have to go out for a moment, well, good jacket and shawl will help LOL.
Take care, hope your shift will be easy and swift.

Nice- Thank you !
Your new supplies are wonderful. I agree with Kyra, your lettering is getting quite good. This year is almost up, and I'm wishing you a happy, healthy and prosperous New Year. Hugs, Edna B.
SSince I have no well working email address of you I do it this way:
Today is the 4th of january and so it is your birthday!
Happy Birthday and all the best, may lots of wishes come true.
Big hug
Kyra
