for personal development and in order to explore the various forms of calligraphy that exist i recently purchased a variety of calligraphy pens. i bought a set of pilot parallel fountain pens for blackletter caligraphy. i bought a set on tombow brush pens for script and brush caligraphy. my next door neighbour in sheffield is from china and she bought me a full set of chinese caligraphy brushes and inks which i was very happy with! i also purchased around 4 sets of different brand fineliners including pigma microns, letraset, staedtler etc.
i decided that the best way to project my knowledge about different forms of caligraphy would be to practice using all the pens in order to understand the stokes they produce, the way to handle and move them, the different techniques one can use to add flare or originality to their work, and how to become familiar with them in order to produce continuity in replication.
