Description
Akua Intaglio Inks (thick)Professional printmaker, Susan Rostow, developed Akua Intaglio Inks to deliver brilliant colors, intense blacks and unmatched working properties. Akua Intaglio Inks only dry through absorption—they will not dry on the printing plate—and clean up easily with soap and water. These inks are ideal for Intaglio/Etching, Monotype, Relief and Collagraph printmaking and can be used with Akua Liquid Pigment and Modifiers.
In the mid-nineties Susan and William began looking for a water-based printmaking ink. They discovered that the few water-based inks available dried too quickly and were not of professional quality. At that time there was not a single water-based ink on the market that was specifically made for wiping an intaglio plate or working a monotype plate with a long open time. They recognized that there was a growing demand from artists who wanted to make high quality prints without compromising their health, so they decided to develop their own water-based ink. They ended up creating two lines of ink; Akua Liquid Pigment and Akua Intaglio.
