The Aquafine range: These inks are thinner and can be used in spray guns and can be used for traditional watercolour effects such as flocculation, blooming, scumbling, lifting and salting. Pigmented watersoluble ink, not dye based so they won’t fade over time. This ink is completely unique to Daler-Rowney. The ink can be used straight out of the bottle with the stopper as a vivid colour or they can be diluted with water for some subtle tones. These aquafine colours match the watercolour tube and pan sets, continuing with the consistency of colours. These inks are not acrylic so are not water resistant, but this means they will act like traditional watercolours and can be lifted off the paper for some excellent textural effects. |
