Ink on Fabriano (with a Side of Scone)

11/14/13 Diamine Chocolate Brown ink, Fabriano hot-press paper
Rain, gloom, overcast skies: It’s Zoka Coffee weather  and the season for their pumpkin scones. It was a good opportunity to give the Fabriano hot press a run with pen and ink: my favorite Sailors and water-soluble Diamine inks. As I expected, the smooth, hot-press finish is a dream under the nibs, and the inks wash beautifully on the surface.

The scone was pretty dang good, too.
