Product Details

Our March 2017 Premium Box focused on unique ink! It was curated to work well with your January 2017 box, and an upcoming box. First it included the Liquitex Acrylic ink in muted pink from their limited edition muted collection. We fell in love with this acrylic ink immediately for its beautiful color and versatility. Since it’s an acrylic ink it can be used with other acrylics with ease. Liquitex Inks are extremely fluid, water resistant, permanent and so lightfast they’ll go down in history. Ideal for watercolor effects you can water the ink down to create transparent washes, or stamp it. While testing this product we loved laying down large areas of ink and creating detail with white highlights. Laying down multiple layers will create a deep intense color. We also included a Sakura Pentouch extra fine in white. These paint markers feature low odor, archival quality ink that is chemically stable, xylene-free, waterproof and fade resistant. The rich, opaque ink flows directly to the tip after a quick shake. They’re perfect for adding details or entire scenes and portraits over a muted ink background. We also included a Princeton 1/4" Neptune Dagger brush. It's Princeton’s thirstiest brush! It soaks up incredible amounts of ink and water, making it perfect for this month’s box. More durable than squirrel hair (the gold standard for watercolor) it’s soft and supple with an even release of color. Finally we included Fabriano Watercolor postcards. The 20 cards bound into Fabriano's handy postcard pad are made with 25% cotton contentd and feature a 140 lb (300 gsm), acid-free, cold press surface that is ideal for this month’s ink. If you’ve been with us since January they also work incredibly well with your metallic watercolors.
