Sketches with Pigma Micron

I tried out the Pigma pens today during two long hours of Art History class. The result is two new sketches in my Muji notebook! These graphic pens are perfect; I have a 1mm and a 0.35mm, which complement eachother perfectly when drawing something on standard paper size.

“When accuracy, minute details, and preservation count, the unparalleled archival quality of Pigma Micron pens makes them everyone’s first choice. Artist, writers, and illustrators reach for Pigma Micron and know their work is safeguarded with the permanence of Pigma ink. The first disposable technical pen using archival pigmented ink, Pigma Micron ink pen is selected for fine-point technical and artistic applications.”

Hands on : Redwing Wabasha

I’ve been a fan of Irish Setters for a while and my 875′s are far from its terminal, but the Wabasha Collection is making me wanna put them aside. I got to see them in person at work and the Vibram sole really sold itself to me (not in any detriment to the deck soles, but I need these for Canadian winters). The canvas ankle panels are great too; makes the foot much more pliable, and the promenade a little more complacent.

The Bio reads: “Just another incurable collector of Americana. From vintage clothing to books records, you name it…..Love the thrill of hunting for “stuff” at the flea market and can’t get enough of my weekly dose .I know!! it’s a disease….” Let’s just say that the bit of provided information is considerably modest. In fact, Patrick Segui isn’t JUST another one, he goes Beyond what most of us already know; from buttons dating from WWII, to a pair of vintage Irish Setters, every piece has its history and Patrick tells it perfectly.

Are you a size 9 / 10 US, well fuck you because I’m not. Maybe, I might just buy these for archiving purposes. The bid is currently at 25 cents…with 3 days left

Notes:
-They would look great on my shelf in my future flat.
-The lacejob is superb
-Not everyday that the seller takes great photos like this.
