love the way you filmed your process! great portrait
Hey Arto! I noticed that you are using water soluble ink. Have you ever tried India inks or Japanese sumi inks that are permanent and waterproof? Have you noticed any advantages to using one or the other? Thanks!
Hi Micah. Yes, I use waterproof inks too, for example Rohrer & Klingner pigment inks. I like multichromatic fountain pen inks (= dye based) because of the nice colors, but the downside is that their lightfastness is poor. Pigmented inks are less prone to fading.
@@artoisotalo gotcha. That makes sense.
This was incredibly helpful. Thank you.
I’m glad you liked it!
Amazing tutorial... took a long time to find what I was looking for! Would you mind sharing which easel you're using pls, and your fine tipped brush?
Thank you Olivia! Nice that you found the video you were looking for 😊. The easel is self-made. I wanted to have an easel for watercolors and inks that is easy to adjust to different angles. It consists of a small tripod with a mini ball head mount. The plastic panel is mounted on the ball head. As for the brush, it’s an Escoda Perla, can’t remember the size though.
@@artoisotalo So sorry for the late reply - found it in SPAM then saw the notification bell! Thank you - and very impressive on the engineering. I've not seen one of such a nice compact size before... one last query - your paper?? I'm suddenly overwhelmed by lots of info on what is best for ink - bristol or watercolor paper. Thanks again, super appreciate it.
@@darlingwolf21 I’m mainly using 300gsm cold pressed watercolor paper for my ink wash pieces. I like Arches and Saunders Waterford most, and Millford by St. Cuthberts Mill is also very nice.
@@artoisotalo Amazing, thank you so much!
Astonishing...the silence in the process the sound of the movement and the brush is like poetry...how did the yellowish and blueish nuances appeared? Do you use special type of ink?
Thank you! The ink I’m using here is Diamine Salamander. It’s a fountain pen ink with chromatic qualities when water is added.
@@artoisotalo thank you it looks fabulous, will check if I can find it.
Thanks so much for sharing your process, you helped me a lot, by seeing you work. Best wishes and good health.
Thank you, great to hear that you found the video helpful!
I watched the whole video and I'm still like... how did he do that 😳. This was mesmerizing 👏
Thanks a lot for your nice comment! 😊
I love this piece, Arto! Not only is the the portrait fabulous but it's so enjoyable to watch you paint it!
Thank you very much, Sally!
I love this video, Arto! It's so beautifully done. I discovered your work during Inktober 2020 and loved your techniques. Thank you! I wonder if you talk about your materials, brands of ink, tools, etc. anywhere?
Thank you! Yes, I go through the materials briefly in the Inktober lessons. Is there something particular you would like to know about the materials?
@@artoisotalo I would like to know what brand of colored inks you use and what is the bamboo brush that makes such scratchy texture? Thank you.
@@sallyryan8556 The ink I used in this video is Caran d’Ache Chromatics Magnetic Blue. I also use Diamine and Rohrer&Klingner Zeichentusche colored inks. The bamboo brush is a generic goat hair Sumi-e brush.
@@artoisotalo Thank you, Arto, for taking the time to respond to me. Your technique with the pipette and spray bottle really inspired me! Best regards to you.
@@sallyryan8556 Thank you, I appreciate your comments! I’m happy that you got inspired by the lessons!
