Colors of the Summer 2020

I don't openly share this usually, because for those not in the fountain pen community, it seems a bit weird. But I write seasonally with inks, using muted greens, reds, and rusty oranges in Fall; cool, moody blues and purples along with icy blue and green with sparkles in Winter; intense pinks and purples in Spring. 

But Summer and I are not friends. It’s my least favorite season, and I’ve had trouble committing to inks that celebrate it. Until now☀️ two favorite summer inks arrived this weekend. 


Sailor Jentle Apricot is like bottled sunshine (and is being discontinued 🤯🤬😩) and Pelikan Star Ruby is a juicy fuchsia evoking red grapefruit. 

Bring on the sun!
