Lovely! How does India ink perform on watercolor paper? Is it itself applied after watercolors??

It works nice on watercolor paper. The paper doesn't warp as bad. As for combining watercolors with ink, I'd really suggest just playing around with them to find out what method you'd like best. I use mostly colored inks on these. If I add watercolor, its mainly just for an accent afterwards since they tend to spread if I try and do anything else wet over it. The inks though, they stay put after they dry, so you can layer with them.

That's fascinating and inspiring stuff! ^^ I remembered watercolors as being so goes-everywhere in nature, so I was wondering how the heck the India ink would agree (as I also remember it diluting pretty easily). Thanks so much <3
