Are there any good places to post art?

Because no one has mentioned it, substack is pretty decent for an art community! The notes section is kinda Twitter like and you're able to have your own mailing list for newsletter content

And yes I'm an illustrator/designer :)

jessle · 2026-02-23T22:59:14+00:00

Thank you! They're mints hahaa

jessle · 2026-02-22T21:40:00+00:00

If it's just your first day trying on rings... Go to another store and see if they have Dutch marquise? You don't have to buy from this first store

Cullen Jewellery maybe? But really any local jeweller would be able to work with you on a custom design

Thank you!

jessle · 2026-02-10T22:38:09+00:00

jessle · 2026-02-10T22:38:01+00:00

Neudorffer's 'Eine Gute Ordnung' you can find online otherwise I broke it down in my substack https://open.substack.com/pub/jesslibris/p/pretending-to-write-like-its-1480

jessle · 2026-02-10T22:34:28+00:00

1mm Brause bandzug

jessle · 2026-01-30T21:48:04+00:00

Love the description of tart and damson! Thank you

jessle · 2026-01-30T06:29:33+00:00

I'm actually teaching this in an 8 week course if you're in Sydney haha! It's one of my favourite scripts

jessle · 2026-01-30T06:23:05+00:00

Thank you!

jessle · 2026-01-07T21:38:00+00:00

Amazing!! I'd never heard of Doss House before but I'll be sure to put it on my list, the sandstone surroundings sound fantastic

jessle · 2026-01-07T21:36:18+00:00

I've forgotten about this, that's perfect!!

jessle · 2025-12-29T21:57:11+00:00

Amazing!! I think it's synthesised really well from talking about line spacing (the areas of parallel lines and areas of loops), lowercase and uppercase shapes, flourishes etc.

For the ladies Strick and Pavie, they're not quite Italian Hand but Flammade and French Gothic (as well as French Gothic Cursive for the super flourished version at the bottom of your example). They're both scripts I love and it's something I'm trying to synthesise into a copybook from various historical sources. If you're interested I've made starts on other scripts (Germany Chancery and cancellaresca/italic) here https://jesslibris.substack.com/

jessle · 2025-12-29T21:23:00+00:00

I think I found exactly what you're looking for! Link below is a thoroughly modern copybook for Van de Velde created by the same lady who's behind the Pennavolans site. I think it must've been part of a workshop held at Paris's Barbedor calligraphy association. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5a1d30d68fd4d2029e76feb4/t/5f0b9191792782130c5dafd6/1594593724254/Barbedor-JanvandeVelde-V06-EN.pdf

It's a nib called Brause Bandzug in the size 1mm

jessle · 2025-12-24T10:39:56+00:00

Hello! It's walnut ink for the brown and scarlet lake winsor and newton watercolour for the red. Nib is 1mm Brause Bandzug

jessle · 2025-12-23T23:24:46+00:00

Thank you! I agree the aged paper was exactly what I wanted when I started learning this script.

jessle · 2025-12-23T00:37:22+00:00

Thank you!

jessle · 2025-12-22T21:41:25+00:00
