Vanness brought current and past seasons of the Colorverse ink from Korea which is always a big hit. It took me until Sunday to find where the organizers hid the ink testing stations but there were lots of folks using it so it was clearly easier for others to find it. Here’s Laura putting on her best “I’m not deliriously tired” happy face for me in front of the Vanness table. If you want a thorough overview of the show, check out Mike Matteson’s Friday video which will have way more detail than I was able to capture.
But what you are really here to hear about is everything else that was at the show.īecause I was working, it was hard to walk around and take photos but I was able to do it on Sunday. It was a new experience to have my own table and to introduce the Chicago community to The Well-Appointed Desk Shop and Skylab Letterpress product offerings as well as share a special Col-o-ring design we made especially for my hometown: The Chicag-o-ring.
This year, I had the table next to them and Laura and Matt Armstrong (you might remember him as the legendary Pen Habit) held down the fort with Lisa at Vanness Pen Shop. The previous three years, I’ve worked as a helper for Vanness Pen Shop. Meanwhile there is trouble in paradise between and Don and Ashley as yet another video emerges, and Ashley feels like she is at her wits end despite Don's attempt to right his wrongs.Turns out, this is my fourth year attending the Chicago Pen Show and my first year as a vendor. Van makes a surprise appearance and apologizes for the Vegas rumors, but not without throwing Don under the bus. Charmaine finds out she is having a girl, and also that she’s been outed for not having legit business license. Kitty tries to boss up at second city yet again, but this time is confronted by the shop crew on her status at the shop and her recent firing from black ink New York. Kitty acquires a tattoo from Ryan and the speculation around the nature of their relationship continues to grow.
