If Saydrah could do it with crayons and colored pencils, I can do it with pens and markers. There's something to be said for working with liquid ink, whether it's stored in the pen or in a container.

Oh, look, it's a marker flower!

Kind of like a chrysanthemum of markers, to be precise.

    A picture by Athena looks like a fountain pen.I learned to write using a pen with a nib that you sipped into the inkwell at the right hand corner of your desk. I wans`t very good at it, really messy.When limited numbers of ball point pens were obtained, I was the first kid in my class to get one.Not something i bragged about then.As it turned out I was still capable of making messes because they hadn`t quite figured out the ink formulation and sometimes ink leaked & ran. Eventually I improved o the point where my parents gave me an Esterbrook fountain pen. I`ve still got that, some where in my desk.Thanks for the memories. ollie
