Would you recommend any additives to emulsify thin ink, or dilute-ink, dilute-acrylic paint, etc.?
That the ink might flow well on a dip pen nib, for instance.
(To turn thin watery pigment in to an emulsion which beads properly upon the nib.)
Would you suggest shellac, gum arabic, some kind of liquid gloss acrylic medium, or something else?
Thanks!
I soaped it, rinsed it, washed it now many times, nothing changes. Anyone knows any magic solutions or should I call it a lost case? #artQuestion #art #brush
This serene panoramic landscape, with its mix of pastoral fields and delicate architecture, masterfully balances nature and civility. How does this ink wash elevate your perception of historical Paris?

Behind the scenes with some of the photos I took of roller skates to use in my Roller Skating series. I have the white roller skates. I want to actually paint designs on them. Two different designs for each skate and then offer it for sale as home décor. I have a request from the Art Community here – what is/are good paints that will adhere to the skates. Which would be better: the Squeegee Paint Technique or the Hydro Dipping Technique?
January (2023) I did the #city23 challenge for a month (where you draw a location every day) and use that for my SoloRPG game this year. It was a lot of fun, but having a sketchbook that you have to leaf through to find out a location is kind of a pain.
So, looking for suggestion on drawing locations in 2024, but portable, analog, small and/or light.
As always with soloRPG games, PREP is PLAY!

Immersed in the serene beauty of ‘Aan de kade van Saint-Cloud’. Its subtle hues and peaceful narrative carry a soothing aura. Anonymous, yet impactful. Can anonymity intensify art's allure?

The number of sketches or drafts an #artist hasn't shown is bigger than the ones they've shown. I'm just wondering if that first number shrinks the more experienced you get as an artist?
Say you brought an artbook. What do you do with it beside admiring and referencing? #artquestion
If you knew that another artist was quoting less than you for the same job, would you reduce your fee?
Does anyone have any affordable art tablet recommendations? My Huion is acting up, Huion doesn't seem to have the drivers I need, and no amount of resetting/restarting seems to be making the tablet work again even though it's been working all day up til now... #Huion #ArtQuestion #Art #TechSupport
Question for all my #artists peers out thete. Anyone have any decent drawing ideas for a general audience and the squares? I've been told by my family that they don't share my children's book art, weirdo scifi comics, or emotionally charged political prices. I get it and I have the capacity to make something they can show off but I have no ideas other than landscapes.
⭐️ Illustrators! ⭐️ How much time do you spend on self-promotion?
Does anyone know a good, affordable alternative to Prismacolor? I love their markers, but they're discontinuing the sales of individual markers to push the sales of sets, and even particular sets seem out of stock or hard to find (just when I needed more French Greys too...)
Open to suggestions! #TraditionalArtist #Art #ArtQuestion #Prismacolor
