I recommend that you buy intaglio inks in the starter set of 8 colors, plus blending solution.
This way you have the right ink for any project by thinning it out with the blending solution.
Zippered Canvas Pouches - used in "Useful can be Arty"

It is difficult to find these on the website. It takes me at least 30 minutes each time I go on the website, to find these and get them ordered. When they arrive, I'll post the sku number which will help to find them on the website.
