Experimenting Reed Pens - An Ancient Drawing Tool

Reed pens have been used as a drawing instrument throughout history. These organic pens have a rich history dating back to ancient civilizations. In this video, I experimented with reed pens to connect with artists centuries ago.
I try to control the amount of ink, apply different pressures, and navigate the challenges of this unique medium. Let's see if I can make it work!

Considering it was a difficult tool to use, you've done a great job😊

I'm new too in Reed pen and yes hard to control and slow, do you think if i soak it in oil day or 2 before using will make less absorbant for ink so the ink flaw will be smoother?
