Inking Striped Shirts

Seeing them hanging to dry
I had to try the stripey lines!  What fun! 

Drawn with an inked Pentel Aquash! 

All of a sudden there is a
hubbub about putting inks in waterbrushes… They sell
inked waterbrushes (Pentel and Wink I like best), and I have been doing it since
I received my first ink sample from Goulet!  I did it for easy grisaille work, then expanded from there!
I recommend diluting the ink
a bit, and if you decide to mix ink colors, stay within the same ink brand.
I think it is  a waste of good black ink;
I purchase the Pentel pockets for water-resistent black (with waterbrush!)

I have not tried glittery inks, but I bought Wink metallic colors and they are excellent!
