As a fountain pen ink it's a brilliant teal, bright and clean on the page, and it's one of the few in the line that's waterproof once fully dry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePush\/Pull is an artist co-operative in Seattle's Ballard neighborhood: an art supply shop, gallery, and small press that started in a basement studio in 2013. They mix their own watercolors, gouache, and fountain pen inks in the store, a batch at a time. That's the appeal and the caveat in one: these are small-batch, hand-made inks, so the color can drift slightly from one batch to the next.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePush\/Pull formulates it to dry fast, which is a real help for left-handed writers whose hand follows the line across the page, and it's waterproof once it has fully dried.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e20 ml vial.
