Our Artist in Residence answers your questions
Q: JMFMS asks: "What kind of ink should you use with Inktense pencils?"
A: You'll need a waterproof ink if you're going to be blending out your Inktense coloring with water. Versafine Clair is what I usually reach for. Archival ink, hybrid ink, or a solvent ink like Stazon would work too. Learn more about Inktense pencils HERE.
