Today is #NewInkDay, this time from China by a brand I've not heard of before (Backstage Forest).
Very pricy but I couldn't resist these colors, and Chinese ink brands don't fuck around when it comes to shimmer.
The frosted guave is possibly the weirdest ink I own, it looks like mud with glitter when wet, then dries into any color between pastel green and red/pink.
The bottles come with eyedroppers which I don't hate, but the openings are too small for dip pens. Boo for that -
#NewInkDay: Diamine Hope Pink in the Lamy 2000. Went for "Still I Rise" by Mary Angelou.
An unapologetic poem, vibrant with life, to go with a audaciously pink ink.
I think the world would be a better place if we all learned to laugh like we've got gold mines diggin' in our own backyards.

New ink day.
The fuyu-gaki is a wonderful orange red colour. I love it. It's so smooth in the parker. It's like writing on glass.
The Jacques Herbin is unfortunately disappointing. While I can smell a sense of some perfume from the ink, it also smells rather... Dead, like all the volatile compounds died two years ago. It's also very very scratchy in the Waterman: it makes me feel as if I'm using a quill.

We ordered a fountain pen and some inks and they arrived today
We bought a TWSBI Eco with a medium nib, a bottle of Dominant Industry Leaf Green and one of Diamine Ancient copper that we haven't tried yet because all our pens are inked
I love it, it's so smooth, and there's so much shading with this ink
Not sure how well the colors look like they do in the picture, though.

Platinum Citrus Black ink piqued my curiosity so I got some to try out and I think it is super cool. It goes from an almost impossible to read yellow wet to a nice dark greenish brown as it dries.
It also looks awesome in a demonstrator pen.

Turns out today was ideed #newinkday. I've had a bunch of pens written empty for a while so I finally cleaned them and then filled up some others (and some of the same).
The Dominant industry inks are new to me. Maple was way more subdued than I had thought from images, but it seems like a great winter ink 🙂
I got inspired to put a real wide nib on the studio, so that one doesn't count towards my max inked. I'll hardly be able to use it 😆

Accidental?? Maybe?? NID!! Lol
Sailor Pen Guild Emerald Sea Glass. Now, what am I going to put this in?#fountainpenink #fountainpens #fountainpen #NewInkDay #fountainpeninks

#NewInkDay continued — Quick and dirty swatches
The Tramol Prejudice is a dark forest green with maroon sheen. (NOTE: I incorrectly wrote Indignation on the swatch, it’s Prejudice)
The shimmers are multicolor holographic shimmer. The two colors of each ink are what the shimmer color looks like when viewed from different angles. Much more apparent in person, maybe I can take a video later.
Swatches done with the front and back of a Molshine glass dip pen.

#NewInkDay and #NewPenDay. Not feeling good so not able to take a good picture, but wanted to celebrate though.
The E95S M is an 'upgrade' of sorts to my currently used E95S EF.
The Plasier is a Christmas present to penable my cousin's daughter (12 yo now).
The Varsities are too carry around and penable random people.
Kon peki had just been on my want list for awhile.

#NewInkDay! I can't wait to ink this up. The swatches online all look fantastic. #FountainPen

I've had a nice birthday. It turned out to be #NewPenDay and also #NewInkDay.
The Kuretake Art Nouveau #ink in the colour Zsolnay green brings me one step closer to my alphabet of ink. Z has been a hard find.
The #fountainpen is the Kaweco sport piston filler, feels very light compared to my other sport.
Also, there's a tiny person doing yoga on my pen. Don't know why but these little figurines were cute 🙃

#NewInkDay from my local art shop! Time to do some swatches and prepare palettes for two commissions.

All done, it’s gorgeous! So colorful!
Now under a clear bandage they started using a few years ago, a type used in burn units. The dressing is to stay on for 4 days before its first wash. It’s definitely gnarly looking and gives my wife the queasy feels to look at.

It’s been years since I’ve said it’s new ink day! I wanted to do this for my fiftieth, but due to complicated money feels (*ahem, shame!*) I haven’t done it.
I put paper cranes in a lot of my artwork to give my collage depth. They also represent peace and are a nod to my Zen practice days. Folding them again was an important rehabilitation milestone for my hand injury. The blue and green represents my wife and I, blue is her favorite color and green is mine.
Alis Volat Propriis is the motto of the state I live in. It’s Latin for, “She flies with her own wings”. The artist I’m working with has done a lot of work blending Japanese motifs with classic flash tattoos.

Yeeeee! I have a lot of swatching to do later! #FountainPens #inks #Vinta #Troublemaker #RobertOster #DominantIndustry #Vanness
#NewInkDay(It always feels so anti-climactic to get such a small package after ordering a ton of ink samples. 😅😝)

I was very excited when #Montblanc announced that they had come out with a #new #purple #ink, a week & a half ago.
While #Beatles #PsychedelicPurple is still my clear favourite, #JimiHendrix #PurpleHaze scratches the itch. It's a tinge more on the red side than Psychedelic Purple, but it isn't quite the maroon-purple of #EnzoFerrari.
As a #writer, I really appreciate the #creativity of #writing with different #colours of #inks.
