    Oh, that’s why I have seen only small differences between the Qing Mo inkstick and the Green Tea inkstick.

    I also think the Green Tea Inkstick is a bit cooler than the Low Resin Pine Soot Inkstick.

    Oh, many beautiful colors.

    I like instructions on how to mix a color.

    I would not use acrylic paint with brushes that are made of natural hair,

    because the acrylic paint makes the hair brittle by removing the remaining grease of the hair.

    For that I like my brush too much.

    Watercolor and gouache paint is not a problem, but they do not mix well with the ink. The color and the ink separate slightly on the paper.

    Can I make the Paint, from pigments with glue on a glass plate with a glass muller?

    As Western colors are made, or do I really need a mortar and pestle for that.

    It takes a long time to get the mortar clean again for the next color.

    Thank you,

    that’s very interesting.
    I have unsized paper lying around here. On the paper, the ink bleeds very easily, unless I paint quickly. What I do not like.
    I would rather size the paper a bit, , before it just lies around and is not used.
