I’ve taken a look at the various aspects of the calligraphy pen and how to use it and care for it properly. We know that calligraphy nibs come in a range of sizes and shapes and can either con attached or unattached to a calligraphy pen holder.

We’ve also had a look at various different types of calligraphy pens from the traditional to the more modern approximation. I’ve also enjoyed talking about fountain pens and I think I would like to explore more of them in the new year (or even sooner).

So now I would just like to kick back and post a little gallery of some of the more impressive examples of calligraphy work that I’ve seen to get an appreciation for what’s possible when you become proficient with your calligraphy pen.

I intend to make this a series of features as I point out and highlight some fine calligraphers and their online presence.

First up is Martha Noonan who is the person behind Martha's Pen. Martha is a calligrapher and artist who works freelance in Boise, Idaho. One of her specialties is Baseball which is featured on her site. Not only will she create certificates, invitations and cards but can also do wall writing for you too. There is also a very informative Classes section that is worth checking out.

There's some examples of Matha's work featured on the site, but it's this beautiful piece that caught my eye as you can see below.

 

If you're in the Idaho area and need some calligraphy done, you should check Martha's Pen before you do anything else.
