Commissions for custom fountain pens are closed for the foreseeable future! Thank you to those who commissioned me but I likely won't have time for them soon. I do want to open them again in the future but I don't know when that will be.

My fountain pen hoarding dragon stickers are officially on back order! I have more supplies to make more coming in on Monday so shipping might be slightly delayed. But they're still available on my website rusapenarts.com

Stickers are now available on my store! They're selling fast. Like really fast. I'm already nearly sold out and need to make more! rusapenarts.com/collections/...

Making stickers! Maybe! Hopefully! We'll see! It's my first time so hopefully they turn out well!

My second attempt at this custom fountain pen design but I'm happy with it so far! *Knock on wood* #art #stationeryadict

Commissions for custom fountain pens are still open! Don't have the pen but still want to commission me? Let me know! I'll be happy to buy the pen on your behalf to work on. rusapenarts.com

And the new custom fountain pens are live on my website! One has already sold out within 2 mins 😱😁 rusapenarts.com/collections/...

Been working on painting this sticker design and I'm FINALLY at my favorite part: GEL PEN TIME GEL PEN TIME GEL PEN TIME

NEW PEN DROP OCTOBER 8TH!!!! These are just a few of the custom fountain pens that will be available for sale THIS WEDNESDAY at 10am central on my website https://rusapenarts.com/ COMMISSIONS ARE OPEN and I will be adding new designs to my form later today! #bulletjournal #stationeryaddict #lgbtq+

I was planning on recording me painting this. And I started to but then I took a break and... didn't want to come back to it. But once I decided that this would be for me, I suddenly got up and right back to it. Being an artist these days is hard. We have to wear so many hats.

I have the BEST commissioners and customers EVER! You guys send me notes, cards, the nicest messages. Y'all just so amazingly kind 😭❤️

Sealing Day part 2! It went so well yesterday I'm kinda in awe lol. I may need to give another offering to the resin gods in thanks. You think they take PayPal or CashApp?

Praise be to the resin gods! Sealing session went well so here's a sneak peek at a new fully hand painted custom fountain pen design!

Sealing Day is upon us. 😌 May the resin gods be in my favor (because I REALLY need to finish these)

Sneak peek to some custom fountain pens! Hopefully the resin gods will be with me this weekend.

Painting today be like #kpopdemonhunters #fountainpen #art #acrylicpaint

Being an adult means realizing there is absolutely nothing holding you back from making cinnamon toast for dinner and I find that wonderful

PSA: Daler Rowney Systems 3 Acrylic inks are NOT airbrush compatible. They also do not play nice with Golden High Flow Acrylics. ESPECIALLY IN AN AIRBRUSH Just...yanno, putting that out there

Kinda thinking about starting a Patreon but having a hard time figuring out what I would offer as rewards. Ideas so far: monthly vote for next month's new custom fountain pen design, stickers, digital journal pages....😅 Idk, I'm definitely open to thoughts!

Oh mannnn just watched the full cinematic trailer for Hades 2 and immediately jumped up to see what pens I have available cause GODDAMN I need a Hades 2 fountain pen. Like...I just need it to exist at the very least 🤣

It's SATURDAY??? When did that happen??? I thought it was Friday?!?!

Day two of sealing 10+ pens. I have sacrificed sandpaper, masking tape, and tears to the resin gods. May they find my offerings satisfactory

Today I start sealing 10+ custom fountain pens. May the resin gods be in my favor

WIP of a custom Lamy Safari fountain pen! This one is inspired by Kpop Demon Hunters #art #kpopdemonhunters #fountainpen

I got an airbrush and I've been working on learning how to use it!  Still figuring out thinning paints+pressure since it seems to differ depending on the paint I'm using at the time.  #fountainpen #art #custommade #journal #junkjournaling #bujo #bulletjournal #airbrush

I recently got an airbrush and have been playing with it to see what sort of effects I can get on my custom fountain pens! This is for a commission but I'm pretty happy with how it's turning out so far! #fountainpen #art #custommade #journal #junkjournaling #bujo #bulletjournal

One of my favorite things my dog does is if I laugh at something, he wags his tail. Like I'll be watching a video or something and laugh and he's just...happy that I'm happy 😭🥹

Been a very long time since I broke out the light pad 💡

Commissions are open! It's a bit early to be thinking about the holidays but it doesn't hurt to be prepared! You can fill out the form to commission a custom fountain pen. https://rusapenarts.com/pages/commission-form #fountainpen #art #custommade #journal #junkjournaling #bujo #bulletjournal

Sad news: I most likely won't be offering commissions for custom fountain pens next year. As some of you know, I lost my day job in April and I've been trying to see if I can make this my full time thing. But business has slowed (understandably so with the world as it is right now)

Commission Update! I know the holidays are still a few months away but I'm a one man operation. Each pen is done by hand and takes a few days, even weeks to finish so I'm trying to plan ahead! #fountainpen #art #custommade #journal #junkjournaling #bujo #bulletjournal

Working on a custom fountain pen commission and having a lot of fun with it! They gave me a lot of artistic freedom so I get to try a few different techniques and experiment!!! Love trying new things. It makes my ADHD brain happy

I love fountain pen ink! There are so many colors. One of my favorites: KWZ Sheen Machine 2! It's a beautiful teal color but it also sometimes shows a red metallic sheen. It makes for some fun journaling or beautiful ink+wash art!  #fountainpen #journal #junkjournaling #bujo #bulletjournal

A recent commission asked for me to add my Soot Sprite Soiree design to their pen and add one to the finial on their pen.  I think he turned out pretty cute! #fountainpen #art #custommade #journal #junkjournaling #bujo #bulletjournal

Oops! So the post announcing my pens were live posted an hour early 😅 but the pens are live now!! In fact, one already sold!!! Been less than 5 mins since it was posted. Thank you so much!! Sorry for all the exclamation points but I am excited!!

Latest batch of custom fountain pens is now live on my website! It's a smaller batch than usual but I've been busy with commissions (which are currently closed until I finish the ones I have). #fountainpen #art #custommade #journal #junkjournaling #bujo #bulletjournal

I'm trying to experiment more with open space on fountain pens.  Most of my designs so fare are pretty repetitive on both the cap and body. But I think this one turned out nice! #fountainpen #art #custommade #journal #junkjournaling #bujo #bulletjournal

Trying to figure out how I'm going to handle the holiday season. I've already got a commission with it being intended as Christmas gifts. But....😅 I am just one person doing each custom fountain pen by hand.

Ngl, this is my favorite pen from my latest batch of custom fountain pens! The branches on the cap are hand painted while the flowers are stickers. Almost tempted to keep this Pilot Kakuno lol #fountainpen #art #custommade #journal #junkjournaling #bujo #bulletjournal

I may have just finished one of the most beautiful fountain pens I have ever done. Gonna need to take some better pics before I ship it out but... #art #fountainpen #journal #bujo

Jellyfish! I love doing studies with acrylic markers because they're easy to use, no need for brushes, no palette needed, consistent colors, etc! I think my only complaint is that you can't really do thin glazes but that's not too big a deal, really. #art #artstudies #acrylic #acrylicmarker #gelpen

I've discovered that I really like working on Pilot Kakunos! 🤔 And since I now know I can work on Pilot Prera...I may slow make the switch to those from Jinhao 82 for my custom fountain pens. First I need to go through the stock of pens I have now though lol

Finally saw kpop demon hunters and oooooh my gosh

A sneak peek at another custom fountain pen in my next batch!  Someone had asked for more 'gothic' type designs.  I'm not sure if this quite fits the bill but it was fun to make! Hopefully the sealing gods are in my favor 🤞 #fountainpen #art #custommade #journal #junkjournaling #bujo #bulletjournal

Today is Sealing Day!! Gonna be sealing these custom fountain pens. May the sealing gods be in my favor

Anybody else playing RF Guardians of Azuma? Because fochdjrjehd these characters are so cute.

Sooo....I got myself an airbrush and I'm trying to figure it out BUT!!! This is the result of my second attempt with it!! This pen was completely black before so I added the gradient. I think it'll make an awesome backdrop for some sea creatures.

Pilot Prera has officially been added to the list of fountain pens I can do custom work on!

Commissions are still open for custom fountain pens! You can fill out my commission form here: rusapenarts.com/pages/commis...
