7 months ago a very thoughtful and kind art student of mine, Stephanie Nash gave me THE NICEST GIFT EVER: a beautiful glass pen. I am SO ashamed it took me so long to open it up and have a play with it but I am HAPPY to report it was so worth the wait!!!! I am SHOCKED at what I discovered and just you wait, you will be too!!!

I have a TON of ink projects in the Celtic Collective art club I mention in the video. You can learn more about that here: www.1scot1not.com/art-club.html
Here are links to the supplies I'm using in this video:
Glass pen - so inexpensive and this one comes with a pretty purple ink like what I'm using in today's video too!! amzn.to/3RknBL4
Meadow by Diamine (green) - amzn.to/3XU88Ut
Noodler's Ink - Blue amzn.to/3kM1uRt
Noodler's Ink - Atlantic Salmon (pink) - amzn.to/3Rp47Fm
Noodler's Ink - Saguaro Wine (dark pink) - amzn.to/40h7n9H
Noodler's Ink - Purple Martin amzn.to/3JuDEE3
I couldn't find the exact black that I was using for this video (truth be told it is ANCIENT) but I highly recommend this one by Dr. PhMartins: amzn.to/3RnTx0Y
And the paper I'm working on is

Don’t be like me - I got myself a glass dip pen then found that I was so afraid I’d break it that I couldn’t use it for a long time. When I finally got up enough nerve to use it, my cat, Cleopatra, accidentally knocked it off my desk and broke it. I was so mad at myself for putting off using the gorgeous pen. So guys, don’t be like me - be brave and be bold and use your tools from day one! Ana

Don't ever apologize for being yourself! Your reaction to the ink still running is the SAME exact one I would have alone. Its so wholesome. This looks so fun. I've been playing with bamboo dip pens, but they run out fast. Better for sketching, in my opinion. I have to try for a glass pen.

Beautiful pen! Just a reminder -- don't bang the nib against a hard surface such as glass when you swish the pen in water to clean it. That can chip the nib. Since I don't trust my hand not to slip, I use a plastic deli container or a paper cup. Some people use a tool to run water over the nib instead, like a miniature hose.

I treated myself to one of those glass pens a few years ago. It was absolutely gorgeous and worked amazingly and for a long time between dips. Sadly I managed to chip the tip of it and though it still looked fine, the flow of ink was seriously impaired. I kept it however to admire its pretty swirls and colours as I didn't have the heart to throw it away.... until last year. You reminded me of how much I enjoyed using it, I may have to treat myself now to another one! 🤭

These pens are very affordable and I bought myself a few different styles. When I pulled off the protective plastic sleeve on one like yours, the whole tip broke off. The supplier refunded the cost to me. In the accompanying information with the pens, it said to be careful when washing the tips because they can crack off if the tip hits the sides of the water container. Other than those precautions, it's a fun experience. Also works with watered down watercolor.

I'm 1 month new to fountain 🖋️ pens and inks. I have about 15 pens and my Jinhao 51a keeps writing. I looked at the converter and there is no ink.🤣 I am writing the same words that you were writing, " How is this pen still writing?" "Wow I can't believe it's still going!" I was just as amazed as you and so far i have written 3 full pages of cursive writing. It's still going. I want to change inks, but I don't want to waste it by dumping it so I keep on practicing. Tomorrow I should run out. It was funny watching you write down everything you said, because I was doing the same thing.😆 I am experimenting with inks also. I just bought a set of scented inks, so that i can surprise my grandnieces when I write to them. I will check out your ink video. So far I have diamine, which are perfect, quink which is good and private reserve which are too wet for inexpensive writing paper. They bleed thru. Thank you for your excitement about art. I'm 61 and took some art classes( painting , clay and installation)4 years ago and one of my profs had your energy. She pushed us hard. But fun was the main thing while being serious with our dedication to the project. Doing it half a** was not an option. Her classes were always packed like I'm sure yours are. Thank you. Your joy of life is sorely needed in these current times. Be blessed, Leo 🦁

I'm sorry to ruin the party... 😋 the bottles are GORGEOUS and they are very unique, HOWEVER I'm not sure they are such a very great ink storage solution, since... 1) Ink contains a high percentage of water. Because these bottles aren't well sealed, the ink may dry out over time. 2) An unseal bottle can also lead to contamination of the ink (Especialy if you have fur-babies, and their hair is... everywhere... Lol...) Mold can grow over time. 3) According to the manufacturer's instructions, the recommendation is to store ink in a cool & shaded place. That's why most of us, FP & ink aficionados, keep our ink bottles in the original boxes, or alternatively, store the bottles in a closed place, far away from any light source (Including light bulbs, btw... 😎)

I saw a sketching video from Kristy Rice with her micron pen, then looked for refillable alternatives, and then for some reason your video popped up in my suggestions… OMG I WISH I HAD KNOW HOW AWESOME IT IS! My mother bought me one as a gift YEARS ago… about 20 years ago… tried it out for calligraphy and hated it…😅 I prefered the upstroke and downstroke style. But never realized I could control the flow by turning though so thanks for letting me know. But then realizing it could be used for sketching I tried it and OMG… what a whole new world of opportunities! And it WORKS with watercolor, just roll the tip in puddles 🙂

I remember when you started your ink collection, it has grown quite a bit. I wish I had the budget to collect those inks they are beautiful and I like that their water soluble. I have the Dr. Martin's inks and they are permanent so I can't blend them which is one of my favorite things to do. You can will me your set when you die...lol, it's the only way I'd get a collection as amazing as yours.

My art budget is minimal because I have enough and am afraid of ever becoming a hoarder. Except a few must-have backup supplies, all of my goodies are open, used and loved. But I've never had a glass pen. Didn't think I would want one, but your fun video and an excellent price point had me dipping into my art supply money. No need to wait. Within 20 minutes of receiving the pen, I asked myself "Why did you think you didn't want this?" Thank you for sharing. I've limited myself to the green ink that came with my pen plus black and white. Can't wait to use this pen a lot!

We could see the ink still in the swirls. I do own one of these glass dipping pendants myself but haven't used it either. It holds so much ink. Yeh! For my main daily ink, I use a permanent, archival and forgery proof.

You might want to get a plastic or silicone water cup to clean your glass dip pen. It hurt my soul to listen to your clanking the pen around in the water glass. Lol 🫣 Lol Your reaction was brilliant!

I have three glass pens in two separate set's and the set's come with ink's and the ink's have gold in them which apparently thickens them a bit. The one thing I would say is don't rattle you glass pens in a jar because the tips are delicate

What is the drawing ink brand that you use again,I looked on transcripts and either I can't find or I'm as blind as a bat..lol. I love how the inks reconstitute with water. I'm excited to use mine. My friend in Canada has been urging me to get them and use she loves hers. Thank you again!

YEARS ago, even before I knew what calligraphy was all about, I saw one of those pens online and HAD to have one. Then I saw the price (probably $20 or so) and indignantly thought that nobody in their right mind would spend that much on a pen! I. Stand. Corrected! Now I want to get one, since I’m teaching myself how to do calligraphy. 😂 I know I’ll use it, and feel so fancy. 🥰 P.S. Karen, I just love you and your fun videos. I’m so glad you’ve made this your life’s work. 🤩❤️

If you want to use permanent ink you might want to try the DeAtramentis archival quality inks. This German company also produces scented inks as does J. Herbin, a French ink maker. If spectacular colours are what you are after might I suggest the Troublemaker range of inks which are manufactured in the Philippines. I do not know if these inks are available in the USA. I live in Scotland and buy mine from Pure Pens in the UK and I do know that this company will undertake international shipping. I also have glass pens and find them a joy to use.
