More on Relief, Lino, and Block Ink
Innovation in recent years driven by greater awareness of health and safety has vastly expanded the choices for printmakers. In this section, you will find water-washable/mixable/soluble oil-based inks that can be cleaned up with soap and water, traditional oil-based inks, and fast-drying water-based inks.
Do bear in mind that traditional oil and pigment inks should not require you to use lots of solvents to clean up. Using vegetable oil is a great alternative, and we have low-odor solvents that you can use sparingly at the very end of cleaning up.
