In this video I demonstrate how to draw with a fountain pen in full color using red, yellow and blue inks. This is a challenging technique that I've only recently started to experiment with, but the results were promising enough that I decided to share what I've learned so far.

I'm using pens made by Opus 88, two Halos and a Picnic. All three have extra fine nibs.

I'm working on Strathmore 300 series multi-media paper. there's a mistake in the video where I say it's made by Canson.

All three waterproof inks are made by DeAtramentis, and are Document Red, Document Yellow, and Document Cyan.
