Learning pen and ink skills was fun for me. The basics of using a calligraphy pen and ink was fairly simple and I enjoyed doing it. The only hard part for me was figuring out how much ink was enough or too much to put in the pen. I really liked the concept bloom where you are planted. I usually try to look a little deeper into the themes, so I stayed away from anything plant related. For my piece I chose to use my quote from the inspiration board. I used purple ink and a standard sized tip and left the background blank. The quote, from Jimi Hendrix was “It all had to come from inside, though, I guess”.I felt this related because your personality is in your mind, everything that you are is inside you. You were planted in your body, in your mind, so that is the only place you can bloom. It all has to come from inside.
