#30Inks30Days | Day Two

On the second day, I decided to use my 2025 Himekuri Sticky Calendar as a guide for my ink choice. This Kitty Inkpot ink is simply delightful, and the flexible nib on this Scribo fountain pen beautifully demonstrates its shading capabilities. The tangle for the day, “Flame Flower,” reminds me of a poinsettia, or at least that’s how I envisioned it. The weather has been consistently dreary and dark, so the photo reflects that. I hope my photography skills improve as I regain my momentum and start posting more frequently.

#30Inks30Days | Day One

I am excited to participate in the 30Inks30Days challenge for the month of November. This provides me the opportunity to explore the inks I have amassed over the years. Additionally, it serves as a means to practice and enhance my cursive handwriting and explore the intricate art of Zentangling. I began this daily practice last month and have thoroughly enjoyed integrating these tangles with my passion for fountain pens and inks. I am most definitely a beginner with a focus on creating smaller tangles, I look forward to the day when I will have the opportunity to incorporate these individual patterns into a larger artistic composition.

• Ink: Troublemaker "Abalone" 
• Pen Used: Pilot Custom 73 "Lavender Fog" 
• Zentangle Pattern: Doo Dah by Zentangle
