Pointed Pen Basics HD
POINTED PEN BASICS is something I recorded for the students in my online classes. The information, I hope, will be helpful to anyone who is picking up a pointed pen for the first time. It will help with table set up, proper posture, pen hold, nib preparation, ink choices, and much more. For those who are more experienced I hope that you find a tip or two that will be useful to you. You can check out my online calligraphy and illumination classes at www.acornartsclasses.org Private online lessons are offered. Enjoy!

Переглядів 69 тис.10 років тому
Here is a video about gilding with Instacoll, done for calligraphers. It will take you through the process step-by-step from the beginning to end. Hope it helps in your calligraphic or illumination endeavors. You can check out my online calligraphy and illumination classes at www.acornartsclasses.org Private online lessons are offered. Enjoy!
Wonderful! Beautifully clear method for us calligraphers! Great use of the single drop bottle and Q-tip burnisher! You have helped me improve by a quantum leap! Many thanks!
Thank you very much!!
Hi Harvest! I’m just starting to gild my first project on calfskin Vellum, and was quite nervous, wishing you could review for me everything you have taught at the workshops and praise the Lord. I found this, UA-cam! Thank you so much!
Excellent presentation
Today's generation has lost touch in the finest things in life, writing with artistic quality is so beautiful that we should teach our youngsters!.😌🙏
Is this lady still alive? Great video except it doesn't work. My instacoll (or at least the currently sold stuff) isn't tacky at all so the gold doesn't stick. It just dries hard after 30-45mins and that's it. Am I missing something??
I know it has been awhile, but does the instacoll come in different colors or can a dye color be added for a different look?
There are at least 3 colors of Instacoll that I know of, but they can be very hard to find in other than the mustard yellow. I'm not sure where to direct you to find them, but a google search might help.
The shadow effect on gesso shows on camera , do you have a how 2 video ?
I am working on that right now, with different raised effects.
One thing I would've wished you would address is at the end, how to deal with the jagged edges. Yes the tutorial was comprehensive and I do thank you for that. This is the main purpose of UA-cam for me, learning. Thank you again for this wonderful video
If there are jagged edges, you use a soft brush or Q tip to brush them away. Is that what you mean?
What kind of maniac calls a child Harvest??
A very forward thinking one! (It's an Irish name.)
Good content - but just 4 ur education - 480p is NOT HD quality.... 😅
Thank you so much for this video!
Do you think Instacoll will last on stone outside as long as rabbit skin glue? Thanks for this great video!!
Does instacoll dry firm like gesso or is it rubbery?
What an amazing lesson! Thank you for the details!
Thank you for making this excellent video. I found it while searching for the proper way to hold this kind of pen and you more than answered my questions!
Can I use imitation gold? If not so, is there a way to get a mirror like surface with imitation gold?
Very thank you for your sharing
Thank you so much, this was very helpful and pleasant to watch!
I was trying to use some silver (aluminum, I think) leaf with the Instacol, but it did not stick well, even after I breathed on it pretty heavily. What am I doing wrong? And, how do you do more intricate shapes and get the leaf trimmed neatly around the edges?
I have the same problem.
Gracias por compartir.!!!
So amazing x thank You so much for this video. You are a dream teacher and artist x

C-THRU isn't a company any more So those rulers are now made by Westcott and are less quality. The C-THRU ones were so good, and I think the lines were printed inside, the Westcott are printed on the outside and wear off over time. Thanks for listening to my ruler nerd podcast
Forgive my ignorance- but any particular tissue paper? Thank you very helpful.
Thank you so much for this teaching. It's priceless. Greetings from Valencia, Spain.
Thank you so much. I'm new to the trade, and your advice was spot on. It helped to get me a whole diferent and better outlook. Best regards. --Jim--
Thank you for this very generous video. I have chosen illumination as my art focus. The details in this video are so helpful.
Excellent teacher from a teacher.
Master!!!
Very interesting information for beginners. Many thanks for sharing.
Thank you very much for this serie of videos that explains so well this technique. I appreciate very much because I could discover something interesting (the "wet on wet") that will help me to do better un the future.
Is it possible to write without the drawn lines
Good refresher. Thank you.
Harvest, can the gold be burnished with an agate burnisher afterward?
Thank you,. Very helpful
I can not see any thing only taking and taking
It's all bumpy and uneven that's proof that instacoll doesn't work. Or the acetate or the brand you used what did it?
Ur Great mam.. I real impressed this video even my school day teacher tach two words keep a perfect distance and writing a alfa beats in some on size ur cline handwriting .. But any one teacher not tel about beautiful handwriting also difend thi words perfect angle, movement our hand and shoulder perfect roted... So TX provides a nice video
Onde compra aquela caneta para lettring?
I'm left handed. Too dificult for me. I'm going to keep trying.
Hi - I have a Lamy Joy Calligraphy pen and am struggling to work out how to use it to get different thickness of strokes? Do you have any suggestions of how to use it properly for calligraphy strokes? Thanks so much!
Lamy joy is an italic nibbed pen so look at Italic calligraphy books for information, the 1.1mm wide nib is best as starting point.
Thank you so much for this video. You have set me on the “write” path to proper lettering techniques.
Excellent. Very carefully explained. Congratulations and thank you very much for sharing
Would these type of NIBS work for a left-handed person? I've been told several different opinions and I would appreciate your thoughts. Thank you.
Thank you very much for sharing .. Very helpful
