When I first started Dream Vale Studios I liked the idea of making beautiful artwork with fountain pens. They ended up being much harder to work with than I imagined. The ink would blot and smear. I would get it everywhere. They brought no joy. I was frustrated and eventually just gave up on them.
I must have forgotten all this anguish as I’ve been wanting to give fountain pens another shot. Surely I could make this work.
After quite a bit of research and perhaps a few foibles I landed on TWISBI Eco. These pens are easy to use, cost-effective, durable, and great for a beginner like myself.
My first one was a blast. It’s easy to load with ink and, well, I simply had to get two more.
