“Black Ink Water” Cedar Park, 2019
Tonight I filled my Ohuhu waterbrush with a mix of diluted ink, first with Noodler’s Bulletproof Black. I added just a few drops and painted the background trees. I had to get the paper really wet, and I am not very fond of the way the ink granulated on the watercolor paper. Next, I refilled the brush with water and 10 drops of Kuretake Zig Cartoonist Ink and painted the items in the foreground. I am really pleased with the effect! It reminds me of Chinese ink paintings a bit, since I guess the medium is essentially the same.
It’s fun to “doodle” using the waterbrush and diluted ink. I’ll do more for sure in the future!
I hope you had a nice day!
またね～
Is it hard to remove the ink from the bristles? Or does it wash off easily? I’ve never tried filling my waterbrush with diluted ink, but it looks fun I might try it later
Nice!
Thank you! :)
Your welcome
I only rinsed out the Noodlers black ink so I could refill with the Kuretake ink, but it seemed to wash pretty well. FYI, I got inspired to try this after watching this video from JelArts https://youtu.be/BYpXDBrzLbc
Amazing. Thanks for sharing!
