The inks

  • Ink Black

INK / PAPER / MARK

Three small choices.

The character of this print comes from the ink, the paper, and the marks between them.

01

Just one ink

Ink Black brings the shapes and light-and-dark relationships to the foreground.

02

White paper

The white base keeps the composition crisp and leaves space for your own handwritten words.

03

A dotted surface

Round halftone gives the illustration a tactile-looking finish without adding another color.
