The Benu bird and the Ba bird.

The Benu is a bird associated with the god Ra and the moment of creation. It's usually brownish gold in colour and looks a little like a heron.

The Ba bird is the form a person’s soul takes after death. It has the body of a bird, but the head of the person who died. This depiction probably shouldn’t be taken literally, but rather descriptively, since it encompasses the idea that soul keeps all the traits and character of the deceased person, but is free to fly beyond the body.

Paintings from the tomb of the artisan, Amennakht, at the village of Deir el Medina.

forbidden candy! my Benu Euphoria fountain pen collection looks nice, but i definitely want to get the Pink Champagne edition from GoldSpot (i want like all of these pens). i have all of these with broad nibs because i love ink and want a thick line.

Fountain Pen Review: Benu Bush Viper Fountain Pen

I love my silly, punk rock Benu Skull & Roses Fountain Pen that I was thrilled to grab one of the Benu Viper Fountain Pens in “Bamboo Viper” ($180) , especially in this Spooky Season. It’s a black pen with an embossed, snake wrapped around the barrel with a beautiful shimmery green iridescent color in the scales of the snake. There are also versions called the Mangrove Viper (green-blue pen body…

How’s your Hobonichi 5-Year Techo journaling going? ✒️ I look forward to updating mine every day. Just having an excuse to play with my fountain pens and stationery supplies makes it worth it. Heh. TGIF!

I’m excited to be starting my journalling adventure this year ✨ it’s something I’ve wanted to do for a while but I never really committed to it

The Traveler’s Notebook is going to be dedicated to more designerly and artsy spreads for when I feel like being creative, while the Hobonichi Techo (A6) will be for daily journal entries where I can just write about my day, make goals, and keep track of important dates

Anyway, here’s my inner cover spreads for my Hobonichi; plus a couple closeups 🌸 I’ll be tagging my journalling posts with “viri journals”

I noticed you replied to one of my fountain pen posts, and I got so excited! Do you have a favorite fountain pen? I think both of my Twsbis are my favorites. They write like a dream. 🖋️

Thank you for asking! It's wonderful to meet other fountain pen nerds. I'm relatively new to the hobby. I was so excited to re that it took me a while to reply.

I cannot choose just one, but TWSBI is included! They are outstanding pens. They write beautifully. I especially appreciate how long ink can stay in its barrel and write smoothly before needing to be changed.

Here are my favourites:

from L to R:

1. Narwhal Key West in Key Largo Blue (thank you to @platybelle for identifying it! I couldn't remember which it was, and it really bothered me.)

2. Benu Talisman in Shooting Star

3. Benu Euphoria in Vodka on the Rocks

4. TWSBI VAC 700R in Iris

(the rainbow didn't photograph well here because I was trying to get the holographic and iridescent glitter in the resin of the other pens to sparkle...)

5. Benu Euphoria in Jazz

Do you have any pens on your wish list right now?

I got my first Benu fountain pen from Cult Pens! I’d been eyeing one up for a while now and decided to finally pick one up.

This Dragon’s Blood Talisman is just gorgeous. The colours really pop without being too much for me, and the nib is really finely tuned. This definitely won’t be my last Benu

TRIAL OF OSIRIS (Work in Progress Shots) I intend to use these photos for the pages in my lore book I am writing for friends and fans of my work! From start to finish, I use a combination of pencil, pen, watercolor, gouache and graphite for this project. This was actually the first time I used a gradient wash... so the anxiety of ruining the piece was at an all time high with so much precise pen work being applied in the beginning stage. Lastly, I scan the image, and use Adobe After FX to create an animated version of it to turn into an NFT if I choose to do so!

BENU Euphoria, White Stag

They made Draco, Darling (kind of Puff the Magic Dragon style, but I can only read it hearing Pansy's voice), and now I've found out BENU makes White Stag. I'm sorry, but I can only see Harry's patronus here.

This pen is a benupens exclusive, while Draco, Darling appears to be available through multiple vendors (Draco was created to commemorate Chinese New Year 2024).

Fountain Pen Reivew: Benu Skull & Roses Crow Fountain Pen

Inside me there is still a 16-year-old goth girl. There. I’ve said it. I outed myself. So, when I saw the Benu Skull & Roses Crow Fountain Pen ($163) I knew I had to have it. I first saw the Skull & Roses pens at the LA Pen Show at the  Dromgoole’s tables where Jesi and I were working. We both debated buying the pens on the table but we had so many people checking them out that we both waited to…

I can’t believe it’s been over a year since I’ve inked any of my fountain pens with Noodler’s Black Swan in Australian Roses. A YEAR! But I knew I had to after finally acquiring this stunning Benu Minima Skulls & Roses fountain pen. Girl’s gotta stay on theme, right? 🥀 And frankly, I was excited to use it! Noodler’s bottles are filled to the brim with ink, and I’ve barely scratched the surface of mine. This lush burgundy red is extremely pleasing to write with, and for me lately, I’ve been gravitating more toward legibility and saturation than delicate pastels. So this hit all the right notes. Plus, look how nice it is in illustrations?! It’s so fun to draw and paint with!

One thing I unexpectedly love about the Red Roses Benu is that the raised designs and texture along the pen body (smooth and not obtrusive at all when gripping the pen) serve as a fantastic roll stop! The pen is easy to set down mid-writing/drawing, cap off, without worrying it will go flying off your desk. The fact it holds still and poses for my glamour photos is just a bonus. 😂

Benu pens have maaaassive ink converters, BTW, so I suspect this pen will be inked for quite a while before I make a switch. I’ve been writing with it now for several pages and it doesn’t seem anywhere close to empty. LOL. So enjoy seeing it on my feed for a while!

PS. It’s Thursdaaay! The weekend is almost heeeere! 🤸‍♀️ Let me know what you have currently inked! 🥰

I forgot I took some photos of my fountain pen collection at the time back in November; I was super enamored with my BENU pens and still am, they’re just so blingy and pretty and sparkly and make me feel magical ✨

The Iridescent Kaweco Sport is also one of my favourites, it’s so CUTE and matches every ink I fill it with
