Amazing response so far for this workshop! See what one participant said below:

“Hi Greg! This is a dream come true for me. I missed Michael’s week-long class several years ago at Berkeley and was crushed. I couldn’t get to the post office fast enough and I know my friend, Shirley, is excited as well, and posted her check today! Looking forward to seeing you in February!! My very best, Candace A.”

Okay, you would not believe what I was able to arrange for one day only, February 18th, 2012 at the Manhattan Beach Country Club, right at the same time the Los Angeles Pen show is going on, so you can attend both events. There is a limited seating for Michael Sull’s all day workshop (9am to 4pm with a lunch break) of only 20 participants!

Now here is a Happy Artist with His New Flex Pen!

Greg,

The button fill pen arrived yesterday and I’m very pleased! I had a bottle of Monte Blanc black ink so after I expended the little bit of blue I was able to keep sketching on the invoice in my preferred black.

Thanks,

Paul

Buttery Smooth, the Way I Like Ice Cream, and My Stub Retips!

Dear Greg,

You have brought back this mighty old Parker Lucky Curve for another run at life, and in doing that so incredibly well you also gave it a phenomenal way to express itself through a buttery-smooth 1.7mm stub nib.

I enjoy writing with this pen so very much. It is a joy in every possible way.

Thanks, Greg, for doing what you do, and doing it the way you do it.

Very much appreciated.

Hugh S.

Happy Owner of a Parker Lucky Curve Flex Pen!

Hi Greg,

Coming back late yesterday night, I discovered that your packet arrived !
I just took a few minutes to ink my new Parker Lucky Curve with a beautiful
Diamine blue in order to test the nib. After some lines, I am now sure that a
lot of pleasure and fun is waiting for me in the coming days, playing with the
flexibility of this nib coming easily from XF to BB.
Thank you very much. I am persuaded that we will have the opportunity to make
other deals in the future.
Best regards
JP
