India ink is a marvelous medium. Even the watered down ink is permanent once it dries. You can rewet it and it will not run. I like to do these then go over them with either colored inks or watercolor. For landscapes you can work wet into wet, just like watercolor. Pen and a little light watercolor wash is one of the most beautiful techniques in art to me. Tintachina is a wonderful artist. The man could produce art with a toothpick , a $2 Crayola watercolor set or finger paints.
Thank you so much for getting back to me. One thing I still don't understand. Do you continually dip the stick into the ink so it is wet when you draw, or do you let the ink dry and then draw? I never saw the artist dipping the stick in the ink.
I read all the comments, but am still not sure what the wooden stalk he is drawing with is made of. I don't see him dip it in the ink, so it must be some sort of charcoal? do you know exactly what it is and where I can get one or make one?
@dreyphoto The stick is a piece of wood, anything dry wooden stick is good for. A piece of dry branch of tree... you have to sharpen with a knife or so... a toothpick is good to draw. I dip it in ink! What's the better stick? There is not two sticks same shape... even, when you sharpen it, it changes! This is the charm of this technique. You have to try by yourself
mmmm, open air painting =w=. i think the painting is prettier than the actual architecture, which is saying something! very nice, like the texture and contrast.
That dudes really talented his line qualitys awsome and i would love to know what type of pen hes useing ... and dear god hes ink washing i havent even tried that yet but i really want to
Read the comments: my pen is a wooden-stick; maybe an stick from a three, sharped with a knife. The ink is a black liquid, but other bottles contain ink mixed with water: simply!
I have the same question, he's asking how you pushed the ink at 4:15 around in the water without it going outside of the lines that you had already drawn.
a line of dry india ink will contain a wash. here artist applies wash to dry paper inside outlines of column. applying wash to dry paper ensures it wont become too wet. as you can see, he can add more ink to the wash, darkening it, & still doesn't dissolve lines from side or below. paper is also important- heavier, good quality paper allows slower more controlled absorption of water/ink, allows more time to work with wash. try yourself! see how much wash a circle of india ink will contain!
I don't know! The indian ink in spanish is called "chinese ink": is a black fluid, and it is selled in flask and bottle. I blend the ink with water, in different concentration. What about your sumi ink? Bye! Thanks
hi, in sumi-e, sumi stick is grinding with water on the ink stone, to make sumi ink. And to make diffrent concentration, we do that with brush, by controling the quantity of water to mix.
I think this is the same thing: this ink-stik I know that exists but, unfortunately, I never did not draw with it... But I get wishes for try it! Usually I work first time with a wooden-stick or cane, by weting in the liquid ink (like video shows); after I continue by brushing, even with watercolour. The technique that you describe seems to be only for brush...
They are both made of some form of carbon. India Ink is sold as a liquid and usually has an additive, such as shellac, to make it waterproof upon drying. I don't think sumi-e has any additives other than what holds it together while dry.
