    Strange how people do not know this, then again depends on the ink. I used to use Windsor and Newton inks which needed distilled water..lovely colours and lovely texture. Yes limited palette, is a good thing, but sometimes you need a yellow.❤❤❤ love what you did. I also use felt tip pens, they can make good art work, you don't need fancy expensive stuff. Carioca is good, all their stuff I know is for kids, but hey! It is good. Durable, iconic, and a blst from my past. I always used Carren dash pencils, I still have them, and we got them in the 70' s.Also I have my great aunt's pastels, and they are about 100 years old. I don't use them, they are a treasure, and irreplaceable.

    Hi Lindsay! I would love to see a tutorial for the other birds.
    Also, thanks for talking about being a beginner at urban sketching and noting that it’s going to take lots of drawings to get where you want to be (I think you’re fabulous already but I get it!). Art does not come naturally to me, and I feel like my progress is much, much slower than it is for others. Some days I accept that it is what it is, but last night I was having a tough time with it and wondered if I’m just wasting my time (and oh so much money 😂). Hearing those reminders from you was just what I needed today, so thanks for that. ❤

    Yes, please post what you have with the birds. I learned this technique from Lynn Baur a couple of years ago and I really enjoy it. I like using Platinum Preppy pens for this - they have excellent nibs for an inexpensive pens, and they can be used with cartridges, which I refill, even with waterproof pigment inks. The Preppy pen has not ever dried out on me, even with pigment inks. Also Tip: this works with gel pens too- they wash out also. Good use for those who dont know what to do with those 120 sets of gel pens they got…. Just let them dry completely between layers, as Lindsay mentions.

    Lindsey, please don’t be embarrassed about having a lot of art supplies. You have a unique trifecta that is valuable to art vendors/manufacturers and consumers: a sizable database of knowledge about a variety of art/craft materials, techniques, and their manufacturers (artist); a solid understanding of how they are made and how they work (scientist); AND you know how to explain it all so that others understand it (teacher). Vendors send you supplies for review because they know you understand, know how to use, and how to explain the supplies, and will be fair in your assessment. Finally, they know you have a large following who trust your knowledge and Integrity and trust that this will result in sales for them. The art supplies you get are simply a part of the process. I know you know this, I just want you to know _we_ know this too. Vendors aren’t being altruistic; you save us money and aggravation, which results in sales for them (I already bought a few things from this year’s gift guide - _for myself.)_
    I will also buy some of these pens today (I’ve been looking for a good specific type of fountain pen to buy for weeks. I’m still looking but this multicolored set will be a nice addition.)

    I have these pens in my cart. Thank you for sharing your playtime with them. I found empty ones & lots of different inks for them. I'm learning which inks are safe for refilling fountain pens. Some waterproof inks clog your pens. These pens are definitely an adorable option to using inks for paintings. The ink sets are quite costly. Even just 5 or 6 bottle sets. These are a great way to get started before leaping into the more expensive ink sets like PH Martins, Daler Rowney FW, etc.

    This set looks like an awesome travel option for my WN Calligraphy and drawing inks. And like you said, after the ink runs out, I could see about just filling them with the WN ink!!! If they should clog up, I'll just turn them into travel dip pens, since they have caps! My current dip pens are so inconvenient for travel!

    🦜🦚🐤🦆🕊️🐧🐦🦉🐦‍⬛ Yes to the birds video! Thanks for bringing fountain pens into the mix. I have been a 🖋️ user for decades but haven't really thought of them for sketching like that. I use waterproof ink for ink & wash urban sketches, though (have some ink recommendations if you want 😊) But this, my dear, opens up a whole new game. I have more ink bottles than I can use in a lifetime so I will probably use good cheap 🖋️ with the inks I have (Platinum Preppy or Jinhao Shark pens check them out). BTW, ⛔ do not use liquid watercolours in good pens, as they might dry inside and congest the pen. Test them that on a Preppy / 🦈 Jinhao Shark before potentially ruining a good quality pen. Loved this little bird! Thanks, I am always happy to listen to you while you sketch and paint.
