pen and ink from Isle of Man

Welcome to inkmann art, my blog about all things pen & ink. I'm a fountain pen collector, and enjoy using them for my sketches. My name 'Inkmann' echoes the Isle of Man, where I live. This Island's landscape, coast and heritage are my main inspiration, and the abandoned homesteads, known as Tholtans here, are a subject I often return too. My pen collection is growing alongside the different inks I can't resist, as pen and ink is my favourite medium. But I am also a fan of digital art and watercolour, and sometimes combine all three mediums to gain the effect I like. If you would like to get in touch, please contact me, Andrew, via the email link, inkmann@manx.net thanks.

Some of my favourite fountain pens

This is a Parker Duofold  and has a 14ct gold nib. I believe it dates around the 1960's. but if anyone can help me date it thanks?

This is a pen I use daily and it has never let me down. It writes as soon as it touches the paper and writes so smooth ly. A really nice pen

This is a cracking looking pen with a very smooth 14 ct nib which I believe is a limited edition.
quite small and dainty for my big clumsy hands but a really nice pen
