We asked illustrators Philip Harris and Richard Stephenson to try out Jackson&#8217;s Indian Ink. Made in the UK and formulated with a base of high-quality shellac medium and purified water, the ink has a clean, smooth and steady flow. Find out how Philip and Richard experiment and use the ink below.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Richard Stephenson<\/h2>\n<p>Ink and printmaking of any kind, for me, are some of the most important inventions, discoveries and acts in the establishment of modern civilisation. It has allowed the communication of knowledge and ideas to permeate generation after generation: aiding us to understand what words cannot communicate, record history\u2026 and imagine the future. I also wouldn\u2019t know what to do with myself if ink wasn\u2019t a thing.<\/p>\n<p>Having drawn predominantly with ink for 25 years I was delighted to be asked by Jackson\u2019s Art to review their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/jacksons-indian-ink\">Jackson\u2019s Indian Ink<\/a>. Rather than just sticking to line work, which the body of my work is usual based around, I decided to apply several ink washes to this piece to put the ink through its paces. Without question the ink quality holds up as one of the best I\u2019ve used.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_20211103_170733_2.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1434153\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_20211103_170733_2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2400\" height=\"1800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_20211103_170733_2.jpg 2400w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_20211103_170733_2-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_20211103_170733_2-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_20211103_170733_2-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_20211103_170733_2-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_20211103_170733_2-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_20211103_170733_2-620x465.jpg 620w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_20211103_170733_2-940x705.jpg 940w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2400px) 100vw, 2400px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I started by decanting some pure ink, then made ink water mixes with 20% water, 50% water and 80% water.

Feathering is an issue with low quality inks, but Jackson\u2019s Indian ink has a beautiful flow and applies very smoothly so you can achieve a very fine line. I received a 300 ml bottle of ink and I would advise using a long pipette to avoid disappointing your desk or work surface.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_20211103_135500_2.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1434151\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_20211103_135500_2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2400\" height=\"1800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_20211103_135500_2.jpg 2400w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_20211103_135500_2-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_20211103_135500_2-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_20211103_135500_2-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_20211103_135500_2-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_20211103_135500_2-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_20211103_135500_2-620x465.jpg 620w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_20211103_135500_2-940x705.jpg 940w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2400px) 100vw, 2400px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I pencilled out my idea first and then used the dip pens to mark out the outlines of the drawing.

I then applied a second darker was using both the 80% and 50% mixes to give the sense that lighthouse is the only source of light. That feels kind of obvious now that I\u2019ve written it. I stopped there to review the initial ink lines I\u2019d put down to see how they\u2019d faired against the washes that were applied only a minute later. Not one line had smudged, or bleed and you can see by the warped paper that I went to town with the wash. The ink dries very quickly and is completely water resistant.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_20211103_165042_3-copy.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1434147\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_20211103_165042_3-copy.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2100\" height=\"1646\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_20211103_165042_3-copy.jpg 2100w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_20211103_165042_3-copy-300x235.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_20211103_165042_3-copy-1024x803.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_20211103_165042_3-copy-768x602.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_20211103_165042_3-copy-1536x1204.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_20211103_165042_3-copy-2048x1605.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_20211103_165042_3-copy-620x486.jpg 620w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/IMG_20211103_165042_3-copy-940x737.jpg 940w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2100px) 100vw, 2100px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I then set about applying pure ink to darken the sea water and provide a contrast with the foamy sections of waves using the Bristle Hair Brush and Calligraphy Brush. The brushes took up the ink nicely and there was a lot of control during application. I never felt like the ink was running away or doing something I didn\u2019t want it to do.
