Inkvent 2025 - Day 8
The first day of a new week brings a seemingly facetious ink, a snoozefest, and a bright sunshiny ink to combat the cold, dreary weather. Swatches Colorverse Snow Angel is...brown? I'm guessing Colorverse is having a laugh at when snow gets all slushy and gross after a while. Otherwise,

We got our Christmas tree from the Patchen Tree Farms in Los Gatos yesterday and decorated it. Happy holidays! Bonus pics of the trees during the day: The cat figurine on the cardboard scratcher under the tree is Pixel's urn. We had to move some things around to make space

Inkvent 2025 - Week 1 Recap
We've seen days 1 - 7 for Diamine Inkvent, Colorverse Colorvent, and the Pen Addict "Slackvent" (🙂). Which inks were my favorites and are likely going to be used in a pen soon? If you read through my previous posts, I don't think you'll be surprised. Top favorite Slackvent, day 2,

We went out Christmas tree hunting today at a tree farm in Los Gatos. While there, I took several pictures with the Kodak Charmera, looking for good black and white photos for this month's #ShittyCameraChallenge. The Kodak Charmera doesn't have a very wide field of view, so I hastily took

I found out that there is a #ShittyCameraChallenge going on this month focusing (pun intended) on black and white images. Someone asked if their Charmera would work for the challenge, which it does since it’s so low-res, so I decided to try with mine. I might not limit my
