Sketching With A Fountarn Pen using Water Soluble Ink and a Water Brush. Perfect for Urban Sketching

I've been planning to switch to a fountain pen and thought it was time to give one a try. Picked up an inexpensive calligraphy set while in Sorrento Italy. Included 3 nibs and a bottle of brown, water soluble ink.

I wanted permanent ink, but decided to experiment with the kit ink. I quickly realized the advantage of this water soluble ink for Urban Sketching.

Shortly after I purchased a Lamy fountain pen, but still enjoy the calligraphy pen for the line variation.

This was one of my first attempts with the pen.

And, I still haven't purchased any permanent ink ;)

MATERIALS:
Strathmore 500 Series Sketchbook Paper.
Calligraphy Pen by German Pen Maker On line. That is their name and not how I bought it.
Lamy fountain pen with Extra fine nib.
Sakura water brush.
