Ink swatches and mixtures side by side making a rainbow

After playing around with the CMY palette I did full page swatches of the ink in my Yusari notebook. The sheening inks have such a range from full strength to washes. I experimented with lifting some of the ink using my glass pen and water.

Ink paintings in a journal of a rainbow with some abstract painting on one page and a face and grass on the other page.

I tried out a CMY type of limited palette using fountain pen inks. All the inks I used are from Sailor: Delaware, Yamabuki, and Yamadori. The journal is a Yusari.

Well, I just poured my Lamy Safari nib down the drain. 😭Seems like a good time to cross post my cartoony self-portrait with my comfort foods.

Kaweco Collection Sport spring novelty honey fountain pen with gold trim and gold stainless steel nib

Kaweco Collection Sport spring novelty honey fountain pen capped with the word mustard behind it.

This pen is a close match to the Goldspot company color, don't you think?

Coming early March, the Kaweco Collection Sport "Honey" (or Mustard, as some might refer to it) is one of our first special editions of 2025 and a must-have for a pen collection in need of a portable pocket pen.

Journal heading with the date “February 13th 2025 Thursday” lettered in curlz font style in purple ink decorated with bows.

A drawing of a forest scene with two squirrels in pink ink on grid paper.

I’m getting sucked into the hobonichi hype. I’ve noticed the format and the paper quality makes it easy to experiment. My journal is getting more expressive. I even ventured into making a curlz heading 😄

February 10th 2025 written in a creepy style and green ink along with the text, “I may have over done it with the caffeine.”

Listening to Ethel Cain, this heading felt more fitting than my usual bubble letters.

Spending our afternoon at the botanic garden was the best decision for today. The news is exhausting and I can’t afford to get discouraged. I also just had chili dogs, a whoopie pie, and tea so that’s my equivalent of being high ✌️

I really like it. My only drawback is getting used to the eye dropper fill system. For a mini pen, it feels pretty sturdy, not toy-like. Changing the nib is really easy, practically mess-free.

9 fountain pens laid out on a cutting mat.

Sat down and took stock of all my fountain pens in order from when I got them. 6 out of the 9 are pre-owned.
