Here is a Flourish Friday Feather for you!
I used McCaffrey's Black ink and a vintage Hunt 22.
I made the trip over to Columbus, Ohio earlier this week to take a couple of days instruction from Bill Lilly.
I was fortunate to sit in on his final class with a group of Japanese women.
They were such a lovely and fun bunch -very talented too!

Bill was giving instruction on bird flourishing - feathers too.

I'll try to get this bird turned around so you don't have to crane your neck.

There. ( I think the bird is happier now...)
Also pictured with Bill and his Japanese students, is Sandy Mundy. She was instrumental in getting Bill's "The Art of Beautiful Script" book published. She is a sweetheart!
I learned so much during my time with Bill. (Thank you Bill!)
I think the key word in this certificate is "satisfactory." :)
The key now is to practice, practice, practice.
