{"title":"Colour \u0026 Drawing Inks","description":"\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eDrawing inks — shellac-based, dye-based, waterproof when dry — are a different proposition to fountain pen inks. They're applied with dip pens and brushes rather than fountain pens, they behave more unpredictably, and they reward a certain directness of approach.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eDr Ph Martin's Bombay India Inks have been chosen specifically for their lightfastness and their behaviour under a dip pen. The 13 colours stocked here are not the full range — they're the colours that an illustrator actually reaches for. Sepia and Van Dyke Brown before the conventional browns. The colours that mix well, hold their character in thin washes, and don't fight the black lines around them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eLiquitex acrylic inks are here for mixed media and opaque work — particularly Carbon Black, which has a different character to India ink and sits beautifully on dark surfaces. Ziller inks are an American maker almost invisible in UK retail, with a following among dip pen users specifically for the unusual colours and the metallic range. Their Hyacinth — a blue-purple beloved by calligraphers — is the one to start with.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[],"url":"https:\/\/inkwellartsupplies.com\/collections\/colour-drawing-inks.oembed","provider":"Inkwell Art Supplies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
