"Indelicate"
"Ultra-sophisticated and yet ultra-unsophisticated. Delicate and yet indelicate.
One of the nicest rude words I've drawn. Really needs to be seen at full size.
Referencing two historical styles - 18th Century Round hand and Victorian ornate." -Seb Lester

"The Pen is Mightier Than The Sword"
