Tripping the teal fantastic
Teal is the name of this week’s game. Teal colorways in the week’s pen choices. And teal inks comprise 30% of the week’s color palette. Heck, even my work notebook has a teal cover.
I know a currently inked plan is successful when I’m eager for the work week to start — so I can write. And I’m one eager scholar. Feeling the zeal in teal.
A little sheen, a pinch of shimmer, and a whole lot of shade
If this week has a theme, that theme is “a little bit of everything.” A dark grey ink in a nib that can write F and EF. Straightforward, subtle shading. The same can be said for my dark blue option, Aonibi. Add purple (Sakuranezumi) and orange (Koiame) inks with strong shading. Shading is a go.
An avalanche of mini nib grinds
Two new pens enter the rotation this week. And I return to a manageable six pen and ink combinations. Six seems a fine fellowship. Every pen in this week’s kit sports a miniature version of a typically broad grind.
Looking into new horizons, with Colorverse’s Matter
I went with adventurous pen and ink choices this week. Rarities and wild combinations of pens and nibs and inks. After a week in my penvelope and on my work desk, this week’s seven are traveling with me to the Philly Pen Show. I try to bring pens and inks that folks might not otherwise get a chance to handle in person.
