It’s obviously the right sort of day for temperamental sparkly inks. This is another Jacques Herbin, Rivière de la Lune.

A close-up of glittery, cursive handwriting on a textured surface, featuring dark ink with iridescent shimmer and small blue dots in the background.

I took the day off work to finish getting the blackthorns in before it rains again making it a thoroughly unpleasant experience. The wee birds, faeries and other beasties are going to love it. Sitting at my desk writing about it now and the ink is behaving impeccably. Which is unusual for Jacques Herbin Émeraude de Chivor…

A close-up of handwritten text in cursive, featuring a sparkly blue ink. The words are partially visible and appear to emphasise a positive message. The background is light, possibly textured paper.

To draw a crowd.

Having some fun with the Blue Pumpkin nib on my #DipPen! Freehand drew some organic ivy shapes and then digitally added a teal background to make the sketch pop!

Chess game. Dip pen, February 2026.

Another one from imagination. This is the most fun I've had drawing in ages.

Dip pen, January 2026.

Have I ever seen a piano? Yes, I have. Do I have one in my house? Yes, I do. Do I know what one looks like? Um, probably, why don't I just start drawing anyway and find out...

First time I've picked up a dip pen in years. I'm out of practice.

Ink line drawing of a stereotypical opera singer - - large woman in horned helmet and breastplate holding a spear. Her arms are spread, her helmet is pulled down over her eyes, and her mouth is open. Her toes in sandals protrude slightly from under her very long skirt.

Mein Hirn brauchte das heute.

My brain needed this today...

A Drawing done in ink and later coloured with watercolour. A House surrounded by trees, behind a rural barbed wire. Blue Sky.

Finished the ink swatches with the swatch method of fountain ink artist Nick Stewart.

#dailylife #fountainpen #fountainpenink #colourful #dippen

Seventeen swatches of different inks of the Diamine Inkvent 2022 calendar. Each swatch is a created by adding ink to wetted paper to show chromatography, a crosshatch patterns with diluted bleach through the dried swatch and the name if the ink written with the dip prn on the right side. It a straight dip pen in light swirly colours and a Nikko G nib.

piece inspired by a oneshot my brother-in-law ran. Rishi got to negotiate with a living spaceship (via hundreds of neural tendrils) through dance, and rescued a confused seabird to boot

Daily doodle. Dip pen and acrylic ink. #doodle #sketch #drawing #artist #acrylicink #dippen

I think I can finally say the study in our new home is done. I know this because my #dartboard is up 😊 I just need a new hanger for the #skippingropes. Time to sit down with Guy Garvey on the radio for an afternoon of writing and quiet reflection. I’ve chosen a red glass #dippen and Diamine Sailor’s Warning #fountainpenink

A Unicorn dartboard mounted on a wall, featuring a standard layout with numbers from 1 to 20. Three darts are embedded in the board.

A box of Diamine Shimmering Fountain Pen Ink titled "Sailor's Warning" is displayed alongside a decorative red glass pen, resting on a dotted notebook. A keyboard is in the background.

"And from the wound in Zeus's forehead, fully grown and armoured, sprang Athena." Dip pen, January 2026.

This is, by far, the weirdest thing I've ever drawn.

Okay, here goes: this is a detailed line drawing of the Greek god Zeus, whose head is being split open from the inside by the goddess Athena, clawing her way out and brandishing a shining sword. Aren't you glad you asked?
