Thank you for asking! I only allow artwork that are not commissions to be used with credit. I'm not sure which one you're asking about.

What inks are you using???

Calmality In reply to Avoice [2018-01-01 00:45:38 +0000 UTC]

Parker Quink and Waterman brands. They're worth it- much smoother than most watercolor, no granulation, and they last forever. Just be careful because they're very potent.

As an art student in school I used to paint with inks (was considered madness by my classmates because we're taught gouache and acrylic, and the flowing freedom of inks seems crazy) and these were exactly the inks I used! Especially loved Parker Quinn - they are so intense!! Their blue and green was basically everything.

Ah yes, sometimes art students are just too traditional with mediums haha. I think most people would be so pleased with the color and smoothness of inks if they just thought to try them.
And I'm so glad you re-affirmed me using these too- some of them I just started using recently and I'm waiting for someone to come forward telling me I'm doing everything wrong and these inks can't even be painted with Thank you!!

Most of the other people in my art class at the time primarily painted, whereas I primarily went for "other" forms of art (our exam was divided into painting and "other"). I did fabric-based art (like batik) and calligraphy, and one thing led to the other with the latter and I started doing more with the ink than people presumed ink was for. I've just come to my parents' home for a holiday and found all my Parker Quink bottles! They haven't even dried (even though it's been 14 years). I'm delighted.  

Like you, I don't understand why more people don't paint with inks - they are so insanely vibrant and deep. I feel like I have to use up so much watercolour paste to obtain half the intensity I get with just a few drops of ink. Likewise, seeing you painting with ink re-affirms that I wasn't mad. :')

Thanks! Parker Quink and Waterman brands. They're technically for fountain pens.
