Reducing it further

17/7/2025

 
Last night I filtered the ink through muslin to remove any residue and let it settle overnight, pouring off the liquid from the top this morning and reducing it further in a pan. I'm really hoping for a very thick and viscous ink that can be used for lino cuts, so although I'm loving the quality of the ink, it is too watery.

Another thing I'm trying this morning is a new batch of bark, this time with a much higher resin content. I'm hoping that the resinous bark might create a more viscous ink.
