An A5 sized spiral bound sketchbook page is in portrait orientation and has been completely filled with a continuous line drawing. The shapes resemble letters but it is not words. They are written in a slanted fashion by 4.5mm wide calligraphy tip in orange ink. The first section is a muddy shade of orange because the old green ink was still being washed out of the nib.

A page of continuous line calligraphy. It doesn't actually make any words. It's darker at the top for to transitioning from a green cartridge to the orange one. #fountainpen #pilotparallelpen #orangeink #myart

A panther shaped calligraphy exercise in dark orange ink. It looks like letters but they are just made up. The panther is in stalking mode with a front leg in full extension, head low and a shoulder high.

I bought a Pilot Parallel Pen on my holiday in Adelaide and a 12 box of ink to go with it. It's the 4.5mm tip and I spend my time just making up letters. Some look like script English, others look varieties of Asian and others Arabic. #fountainpen #pilotparallelpen #orangeink #myart
