Finally getting the hang of these…

Dying daily, submitting wholly, loving lavishly,

Even in the flurry of things,

To take a moment and silence my thoughts and heart utterances. To lean in to listen to what makes the heart sing,

May my voice roar within and throughout. May my voice be drenched in Your truth. May my voice envelop Your grace.

Above and beyond all,

Because we know that our labor in the Lord is not in vain,

//

Feet shuffling backward, neck straining upward, captivated by Your beauty,

//

Swelling each moment and stepping forward, running onward, hoping upward,

//

To be awake and in the light, eyes open and standing upright,

Had to write it twice because of how this song traveled to the depths of my heart-space & mind-space,

Officially the last day of summer! Working on my calligraphy before everything gets too busy with med. I hope I can still find the time to sneak some writing in the chaos of studying.

I hope everyone’s having a lovely Monday!

I have been working on a series of videos called Pointed Pen Calligraphy 101, and it is aimed for complete beginners. There are five so far, and the topics touched are stuff like how to set the nib in an oblique holder, different kinds of paper, working environment, body and arm position, grip, drills etc. It’s all very informal and chatty and general and I hope you will enjoy watching them. I am still trying to decide what script to actually demo, as there are so many youtube tutorials already on all kinds of scripts, but I don’t want to jump into stuff like flourishing yet. Any ideas?
