I have been asked many times about the inks I use. Because I sketch with a fountain pen, my ink needs to be clogproof, and because I colour my sketches with watercolour, they need to be waterproof too. In this little video I am sharing my favourite brands and I am lucky enough to be given all the ink I could ever use by some very lovely people in my classes, and by generous people working for De Atramentis. They have no idea I am making this very complimentary video about their ink!

Should you ever join one of my classes, or decide to join the sketching family and become a member of our little troupe, the inks I use nearly all the time are Document Ink in brown and black by De Atramentis, and Sketch Ink in Emma by Rohrer and Klingner. I am also becoming more obsessed with purple ink lately, which I make by mixing Violet and Fuschia Document Inks by De Atramentis. And I have Frieda Sketch Ink by Rohrer and Klingner in my sights...

All the others are just for fun and I am all for that!
