An obsession with colour!

Like all the watercolours I have, ink colours can easily become an obsession--for me. Take the J. Herbin inks for example below:



I first discovered J. Herbin's small round containers at Papers in Albuquerque or perhaps at Oblations in Portland.

These containers are compact, hold six cartridges and can be carried in a bag, or tossed into a suitcase with no fear of ink mess.



Naturally they captivated me.

I bought a half dozen. I still have some of the cartridges in each container.

Now, however, with my zealous attention to identifying fountain pens, I am finding that my ink collection is expanding. A terrible, but colourful dilemma.
