What Color Are Your Fingers Today?

[AndyYNWA]

Sailor Nagasawa Kobe #37 Minatojima Island Blue

 

Filling up my new #3776 didn't 100% according to plan...

This is from a few days back, from an ink experiment. Waterman inspired/caribbean blue.

[Occipital Lobe]

Todays finger mishap would be:

 

Pilot Iroshizuku Tsuki Yo (Emptying an M800)

J Herbin Cafe des Iles (Emptying a Scriptorium Idyll and filling same M800)

Rohrer & Klingner Blu Mare (Filling above Scriptorium Idyll)

 

 

Note to self: Avoid ink change after two glasses of red wine

Piston failure. Ink burped out of the top of pen and ran down my knuckles.

Nextdoor neighbour thought I'd had a serious accident!

Apocryphal: A young man approached the great English painter William Mallord Turner to apply for an apprenticeship; Turner examined the young man's hands and said "how can you be an artist your hands are clean".

I put a little notch in the nib so I could get automatic drop shadows.

 

I even have a sample with the aforementioned splatter

 

That's excellent! Nice work.

Beautiful.

Bookbinders Red Belly Black, wiping off the neck of the bottle, then washing out the cap which had a thick coating all inside around the threads. I must say, it washed off pretty easily.

Akkerman Dutch Masters Steenrood van Vermeer.

Sailor Oku-yama, after refilling my F-C Ambition

[Jimmy James]

This is mostly Platinum Mixfree Purple. Later, a bunch of VMail Midway Blue got added.

For me, it's Noodler's Kung Te Cheng. Love the color, but had forgotten just how mischievous this ink can be....

Diamine Dark Green. Took some photos of a pen inked with the stuff, and made some careless movement... Good news: the pen is safe, and the ink is perfectly washable.

I think we need a new thread: What Color Are Your Cat's Toe Beans Today?

 

My fingers are clean, but ...

This is Jasper Goodkitty. Jasper likes to play in wet sinks and wet showers and then jump up on his mommy's desk and walk across her journal pages.

Doesn't the Waterman Inspired Blue look lovely on his little white paw?

Diamine Asa Blue + Diamine Sapphire Blue as I made my fake Parker Penman Sapphire.

Okay, that is the cutest thing I've seen today. I'm going home to paint my kitty. Oh wait, he's solid black. I better go get the white stray we used to call Snowflake, I'll call him inkspot. JK about inking my kitty, not about how cute your kitty is.

Oh, Lady Macbeth, you shan't remove that blood.

Oh wow, I love how Waterman has been inspiring everyone lately.

Thank you, ma'am! Jasper is a Humane Society rescue, and the light of my life. I went into Petsmart with a friend to get food for her dogs, and he reached through the bars of his cage and adopted me.

You don't get to choose a kitty. You get appointed to keep it in the lifestyle to which it would like to become accustomed. In return you get purrs, warm laps and kitty hairs in your tea/coffee.
