A short Canadian documentary has been making the rounds of the pen community this summer, and for good reason.
It’s a brief, delightful ode to pen, ink and handwriting as an art form.
Ink was directed by Toronto filmmaker Ryan Couldrey and focuses on Tanja Tiziana, a freelance photographer with a passion for pen and ink.

It’s only about seven minutes and well worth the time. I guarantee you’ll be entranced by the flow of the dip pen she uses for calligraphy.
