Both as a distraction from current events and as a new creative venture, I used fountain pen ink to create a few different watercolor paintings a couple of days ago.
The ink is much stronger than watercolor paints, and since I mostly use permanent inks, that means most of them are staining. I also noticed, perhaps due to the heavier saturation, that paper took longer to dry with the fountain pen inks compared to watercolor paints.
The brilliant colors were definitely fun to work with, and the intensity in the images below is both a result of the inks I was using as well as my mood at the time.
