Description
A semi-opaque whitewash ink for those who want intentional control over tone adjustment in whitewash work.
Empire Ink Whitewash Medium is a whitewash ink designed as part of the graywash system. It comes pre-formulated to adjust color by adding a few drops of white to graywash, allowing you to use a milky, semi-transparent medium-tone gray by itself. It's designed to be easy to use in situations where you want to achieve the desired tone without layering, or where you want to work with clear distinctions between values.
Empire Ink is a brand that develops ink formulations based on the actual working processes of tattoo artists. Owner Colt Brown states that he developed this ink based on the tone created when two drops of white were added to a graywash cap, and it's designed to be compatible with techniques that involve slowly moving the hand to evenly stretch the skin. This product is predicated on an approach that uses graywash for shadows and whitewash for values.
