Gamblin Relief Ink Portland Intense Black 175ml

Gamblin Relief Inks are formulated for all relief techniques, including woodblock, linocut, monotype, and Solarplate. They contain the right amount of stiffness and tack to hold fine detail yet spread evenly on the block or plate. The palette of ten colors is designed to give artists intense pure pigmented colors straight from the jar, along with a wide range of color mixing capabilities. Gamblin Relief Inks are all bound in the highest quality Burnt Plate Oil.

Portland Intense Black is a deep rich black with a cool undertone.  It rolls out smoothly, and easily transfers solid fields of color and fine detail from block to paper. It is formulated with an extremely heavy pigment load, yet remains soft; making printing easier and faster. If desired, the color temperature may be adjusted by adding other inks, such as Sepia to add warmth, or Prussian Blue to cool it further.

Pigment: Carbon Black (PBk7), Ferri-ammonium ferrocyanide (PB 27:1)
