Description

While working with both Dark Blue and Yellow Ochre Winsor & Newton Calligraphy Inks, Carol DuBosch came across something special. She found that by dipping in one ink, then water, then the other ink, she could write in a wonderful mix of different colors. Depending on the particular mix of Blue and Yellow inks and the water, the colors were far from what you would expect — it was ink magic!

Carol was kind enough to share her discovery in Bound & Lettered issue 14.4. This kit contains all that you need to create your own ink magic:
