I want to try/learn to do segmented pens this year. So my question goes out to all of you what have successfully segmented their pens.
1. What design quality do you look for in the blanks? plain grain , Wild grain, or solid color verses a varied color in the blank?
2. Do you select your blanks because of a certain patterned design or color?
3. What in your experience looks good in segmented pen .. verses what is looks best in a segmented pen?
4. What type of artistry of color are bought about in the element of the design?
5. What has been your nightmare project involving segmented pens and how did you solve the problem?
6. Is contrast "that" important in segmented pens?
7. Any other comment you would like to make.
I have seen some beautiful segmented pens from this group. Will you share your successes and your failures in doing segmented pens. Thats right failures. WE can learn more from our failures than successes. I hope to learn from all you.
Thank you
