Yes you can! I’ve used it in EF nibs too. I always make sure I rinse the pen nib after filling it so the ink doesn’t dry out all over the nib. I also try to flush the ink through the nib and refill it once a month.
Look for ultra flex nibs or gold nibs. Also dip pen nibs such as braus steno or zebra G nib. The dip pen nibs are muuuch more flexible but prone to rusting in fountain pens
I recall from one of your courses your fondness for painting rust. These lichen rusted rocks must’ve been a hugely happy discovery.
I’ve known about those rocks for a long time and was excited to be going to see them for myself. Yes - very like rust 😊
Very nice! Love this ❤
Thank you! 😊
I love your sketch! Thank you for sharing your process 😊.
My pleasure 😊
Lovely 💖 Thank you for the Pen and ink info, also. I was wondering if it was possible to put document ink through a fine point nib.

And nice to get the information about the name of this place
Beautiful painting style and techniques. The chosen subject is a superb composition too.
Thank you very much!
How do you get thicker lines with your fountain pen? Is that a special nib, or do you just press harder on the nib so that it would flex?
The pen has a fine gold nib, which does respond to a little pressure for a greater range of lines.
@@janeblundellart Thanks!

@@insertaghere Thanks! I tried pen nibs, but my paper is way too rough for it.
@@awatercolourist having the same issue. Really thick bristol seems to be the answer if hot press isn't smooth enough jn your preferred paper brand.
Second 😂
