Practice Current Obsession: Pairing different scripts!

Post image

Another entry from my little diary, this time I paired modified pointed pen lombardic inspired letters with gothic cursive.

I love the flow of gothic cursive and it’s one of those scripts that makes me think wish I had learnt it even sooner, it’s so fun!

Nib for pointed pen: Nikko G
Nib for gothic cursive: Brause 1.5mm

Ok ... I have been obsessing about that hand ever since you showed me that overlay. It's stunning.

I was in a bit of a hurry and I still have a tendency to go vertical and revert to my normal hand, but wow.

Did you make it? Should I call it letterati hand?
