Description
Pennonia Zuzmó Lichen
Pennonia Zuzmó (Lichen) is a pastel sage green with medium shading. It dries in 30 seconds in a medium nib on Rhodia and has a dry flow. Pennonia is a Hungarian company.
Like the simple lichen, this ink also comes in many different shades and colors. If you have read some of the other descriptions you’ve probably noticed that most of the inks have a connection to childhood experiences and it’s the same with this one as well. Máté, the make of Pennoina inks, believes that ink can help long forgotten memories to resurface and interestingly it reminded him of experiences that he never remembers in day to day life. For example collecting sticks and branches while in the woods, preparing campfires, sword fighting with said branches, noticing it on old rocks and foundations of almost as old buildings.
This ink is a part of a mini-series of shading inks, which work particularly well with brushes, brush pens and dip pens. They truly come to life when used in writing instruments from which the inks can gush onto paper. Of course they are also great for fountain pen sketches and even handwriting but the effect is more subdued thanks to the nature of these shading inks. One mantra that is good to keep in mind: the broader and wetter the nib, the better.
