Akua Intaglio Water-Based Ink, 8-Ounce Jar, Raw Umber

Professional art materials for art submissions. Easy to wash off hands. Water soluble.

The product works great but what a mess it creates!

We got this for my son who likes to compete in a printmaking category for school. Last year, he used regular water based ink and kept having problems with it drying too fast to do a good job. This stuff was great! It doesn't dry right away which gave him plenty of time to be careful and even roll out multiple colors on his matrix before making the actual print. The only caution is that it stays 'powdery' after drying so it's a good idea to spray it with a fixative to avoid smudging.

I'm looking forward to the ease of clean up with this printing ink. It came highly recommended by my fellow printing, artist friends. Perfect for dry point, etching & collagraphs printing.

Great product for doing Intaglio ink. Easy clean up and nice product for making art.

This is how my ink arrived: completely bused open and soaking the envelope it was in. I actually love this ink, but am completely baffled that this seller found it appropriate to mail this way.

Excellent ink for printmaking....arrived timely and well packaged..will continue to purchase from this company

Not as bad as similar instances reported in other reviews, but the same problem. Not unusable, but inconvenient, and a bit messy.
