You won't get much texture if you use paints made with small pigments like phthalos and quinacridones. Ultramarine is technically a flocculating pigment, not a granulating pigment. You'll see its texture is different from granulating pigments like burnt umber. Granulating pigments have particles of different sizes, so they settle out of a wash unevenly. Flocculating means the particles clump together and leave larger patches of light color between the clumps. IIRC, the only other flocculating pigment is mars black (which is magnetic).
Thanks for this, Doug. I never understood the difference between pigment in paint and dye in ink. Also, it looked like you created a bead to bring the ink down the page. I never considered that. (And I do appreciate the simple, fun scene!)😊

Good knowledge 👌
Really love the flat, smooth look of the ink, haven't used this but definitely something I'll try. Thankyou!
Thanks Lesley. Ink is so much fun.

@@annangel4828 Glad that was usefull
Absolutely love the ink and something I'll definitely try. Thank you!
Yes it's a lot of fun to play with ink.
That was incredibly useful--(grabbing some bottled ink and heading for the studio...) and inspiring.
Glad it was helpful!
Interesting thanks
Your welcome Mark 😀😀
I wanna draw like you !!

Thank you Doug really useful I am going to grab my ink and give it a try as I think it gives a more dramatic finish.
Have fun!
