On Saturday, Day 26, I visited Michaels and purchased these W/N Inks. I had a 50% coupon so I had to get them ;) To hell, with Christmas shopping! I tried them out last night and continued on this morning, Day 27. I tried using a brush as well as my calligraphy pens. They aren't too forgiving so typical method of 'winging it' isn't working out as well as it usually does. LOL!

If i had bought them i would be disappointed they don't flow like watercolours, but you have made some lovely things with them:)

Those inks look yummy! I would have conveniently forgotten my Christmas shopping, too! Ahhh... there's nothing like new art supplies... You have made some lovely use of them already!
Oh, these colors are amazing. I can only imagine the shading you could do in lettering....cause yours looks so great!
