Guess what store-made watercolor this pile of pigments compiles to make!

Hint: it's part of a very popular set we're restocking this week. :3

Lil Platinum restock including Prefounte and Plaisir fountain pens and converters. We've been trying to get the Preppies back in, but they've been out of stock at our distributor!

We've also got some pen cleaner in! Clean your pens! ✒️✒️✒️🧼🧼🧼

Whether you're an artist or a prolific journaler and notetaker, making your own ink is a great way to learn more about ink as a medium, chemistry (magic?), and how weird color is. Join us at Fountain Pen Ink Mix & Make and concot FOUR bottles of your own ink! 🧪 www.simpletix.com/e/fountain-p... ✒️

Anyone can make art. Whether it’s “good” or “bad” is entirely subjective. But the ability to create is what makes us human. Art isn’t just images or words. Art is what happens when human. It’s a quintessentially human thing. No machine can make it for you. Just start drawing/writing/singing/etc.

Context: this speech is from SIR THOMAS MORE, a history written, as near as scholars can tell, in the early 1600s by 6 or 7 people including Dekker, Heywood, Chettle, Shakespeare, and Munday.

It was never performed, because Jacobean England was a police state and it was banned by the censor.
Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

We're not restocking FWP for various reasons and this is the very last bottle of FWP ink we have... 👀 store.pushpullseattle.com/product/ferr... (there's no variant select on this listing 'cause everything else is sold out, so it's a bit confusing looking?)

We've got three recent issues of OFF KILTER, Vancouver BC artist Tim Grant's ongoing taboo-breaking comix series, filled with sex, sleaze, and shenanigans.

It's Tuesday! Here's this week's newsletter for ya, and a super cute photo from a past Riso Collage class because Square won't stop auto-selecting bad photo choices for their link cards. :V

Literally obsessed with this pic I got of one Cedar Waxwing getting very mad at another for drinking in the same spot as him despite there being a whole stream

Posting normal things feels increasingly dissonate, but we can't let go of the things that make life worthwhile...come hang, be in community, learn smth new, revisit something long abandoned, make time for creativity+healing, as well as anger+action. Keep fighting the good fight. Keep making stuff.

Bunch of awesome teens came in for protest signs. 🔥 We only have a 2 hour window today (4-6pm) without a class/event occupying the tables in the back, but feel free to swing by whenever for posterboard, posters, and whistles~
