Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional.

The Creative Act／John Frusciante

The phrase The Will To Death refers to the underlying, predominantly unintentional, organization in works by artists who love and are devoted to the creative force, but hate what they see of the life force and its ways. It is a set of abstract principles which may be applied in the creative act. In artistic symbolism, one comes close to death, and not only does he not die, but he lives more fully for having had the experience. It may be conceived as a set of musical/mathematical formulae which the musician utilizes without knowing it.

Custom Namiki Falcon Resin Fountain Pen modified by John Mottishaw. He ground the nib (14k) extra fine and added flex to it. The nib requires medium pressure.The ink is Iroshizuku Tsuki-yo Night Sky (Greenish Deep Blue) which shades wonderfully.This pen is difficult to use properly. Most fountain pens are not designed to achieve the line variation seen here. If line variation is what you want, buy a dip pen. They are cheaper, stronger, and will flex more.
