When life hands you...

Description

When life hands you rain and studying for finals, and the rain only brings mushy mushrooms, you gotta find the art. Well, I just made some ink form the alchohol inky caps, and took some of the card stock I was using for falsh cards, to draw the mushrooms that were popping up. I'm emotionaly bouyant to a fault ;) The ink is some of the best I've made yet. I had read about making ink form inky cap but I never though it would work so well and offer such a wide rande of shades. It adheres to the paper better then any other particle pigment ink I have made. I used to prefer the tanic acid and iron oxide natural inks for their indelibility but the particel inks are better for producing art. The downside to particel inks is their lack of adhesion to the paper and subsequent tendancey to smudge of flake away. Untill now I used a soot and egg white ink for particle pigment ink but the mushroom seems to bond to the paper much better so there are no smudges.
