Happy #flexnibfriday, @gouletpens ! (And everyone else for that matter.) I made this piece with a #Knox Avicenna F nib (which isn't advertised so much as flex nib, but as you can see, gets great line variation) and #chesterfield Antique Mariner ink, which is kind of a dark ish mid-teal that reminds me of stormy seas. I painted the clouds and ship with a regular old watercolor brush and added in water spots and shading with a water brush. This color's name reminds me of Pirates... #fountainpens #fpgeeks #stationary #officesupplies #penandink #amwriting #quoteoftheday #fdr #franklinroosevelt #quotes #flexpen #gouletnation

This cat though. (Her name is Emily for those who haven't seen her yet.) #catstagram #catsofinstagram

Here's my #mondaymatchupgiveaway entry for @gouletpens ! First shot at ink washing. It's a little like watercolor but behaves a bit different. I kinda love it. This is also my #rockyourhandwriting day 28 challenge: Brainstorming! I didn't tag on page because I might hang this in my cubicle at work. Pen is my trusty #lamy vista, and my favorite #ink: #pilotiroshizuku Yama-budo. #fountainpens #fpgeeks #stationary #officesupplies #bulletjournal #challenges #handwriting #handwrittennotes #inkwash #penandink #amwriting #coffee #gouletnation #ampainting #artsupplies #art #doodles

#rockyourhandwriting challenge day 27: word art! I'm not sure if this counts, but I was inspired by my insta-friend @fourfiftytwo 's gorgeous journals.
