Beautiful Friends

 
At our book and print arts collective meeting tonight wonderful Clarissa Sligh told us about her art process in the production of her very moving books.
 
I was handicapped in that I had left my pen at home and had to make do with a credit union ballpoint pen.
 
Oddly enough the pen was very fine to write with on the very soft cotton paper of the first two pages and even okay on the third harder and somewhat seedy textured page.

  1. Getting closer! LOL! These are great! What pen do you usually use? I love my Carbon pen, especially if I want to add color, but do love ball point too! Got some colored soluble ink fountain pens coming just so I don't get bored if I end up doing this! Yikes! So happy for you to be finishing your goal! Hey! You could make up a book for yourself and call it "My Ten Thousand Things"! Such an accomplishment! ♥

  2. My favorite pen is a Pilot V/5 hi-tecpoint 0.5. Sadly I can't find them in the US. They are readily available in office supply stores in Europe.
