...is the somewhat flowery expression we have on our license plates in this part of the prairies.
Hello, Forum. I'm Monty from Canada. I found my way here for a pen I'd never used, for a color I'd never seen, inherited from a grandfather I never met.
Some old chemicals I inherited must have been for cyanotypes. They make Prussian Blue, a more brilliant color than I'd ever seen - too deep to photograph, it goes black! It seemed a shame to waste it, but it can only be put in a brush (boring) or dip pen (which still exist??)
So here I am with a handful of cheap Speedball merchandise, a lifetime supply of free blue, and a sudden interest that won't leave me alone. How's everyone doing?
