Issue 1: The Brush Pen Edition

September 2017

Penultimate Magazine is a magazine for lettering artists, produced BY lettering artists. Penultimate comes out on a bi-monthly basis and has a new theme each edition - from brush pens, to pointed pens, to watercolour and more. The magazine includes interviews with artists, product recommendations, reviews, how-tos, tips and tricks, insider info, community events and workshops and much, much more!



In Issue One, we delve deep into the world of Brush Pen Lettering. We take a look at many different brands to consider when beginning, as well as techniques (such as blending, highlights, shadows and the "ombre" effect) and troubleshooting. We discuss brush pen storage, our product of the edition (Artline Stix), and the importance of grip, angle and pressure when using a brush pen. We also sit down with Becca Courtice from The Happy Ever Crafter to discuss her pen-related pursuits, as well as spend 5 minutes with Sarah Pearson, the mastermind behind The Inky Box. Jennifer Smallridge, an Accredited Exercise Physiologist also tells us how important sleep is when it comes to creativity. Not only that, you can also take part in the lettering challenge of the edition and submit your work for publication!


This is a DIGITAL version of the magazine which will be made available to you in your account immediately after purchase - you will not receive a physical copy.

This is for ONE EDITION only. This is not a subscription. It is to read the very first copy of Penultimate Magazine. Please check the homepage for subscription options.

Penultimate is a BI-MONTHLY magazine, which means it comes out once every 2 months (so, 6 times per year)

**due to the image-heavy nature of this Magazine, the file size is quite large. You can read the magazine online, but to avoid blowing your data, make sure you're connected to wifi before downloading a copy to your device**
