days gone by

in the works... a collection of landscapes and verse, travels through eastern Oregon, reminiscent of the art of Bev Doolittle - the scenery, wide open vistas and reflections of water, sky and clouds. A painter's sky

victorian rose pen set


this set I have also written with and did sell in the Gallery. This set can be found at The Writing Store www.writingstore.com

pucinella's pen set and the Gingerbread Mansion


introducing Pucinella's glass pen writing set from Authentic Models Writing Instruments, for me, this is where the discovery happened. I was on a San Francisco merchant buying trip for the Art Gallery and was investigating new lines to promote ~ we chose this line as it had low to high-end beautifully boxed items, and it quickly became our greatest small item seller.

simple & exquisite pensets



 a simple pen set can cost between $35. and $49. depending upon the maker. The finest writing instruments are from Murano Glass of Italy. I have written with their pens and also those by Authentic Models.

Shown below is the penset from Murano Glass of Italy


fine art of writing


i am a lover of glass calligraphy pens
they do require a skilled techinique as each pen is slightly different
once i am familiar with the grooves and ink properties
the glass pen creates an excitement in writing
like no other pen instrument
