Margot,Thanks for posting the results of your inquiry. I have noticed the difference of intensity between the colors.
I am into the "earth" colors, and each is different. It makes life more interesting to try and figure out how to get a color
I am after. I'm finding that often when mixing the inks, colors I would expect to achieve by adding a drop or two end up being
a 50/50 mixture. The Pthalo Blue, in particular, is so strong it overpowers everything you add to it. Also, I gave the Akua Kolors
a try on damp paper yesterday, and it seemed to me that I lost quite a bit of intensity and sharpness compared to printing dry.
It's hard to put into words...it just looks softer.

Hi rakesh,

Since I paint with acrylics, I tried using them to make my prints.
But I can't get a good impression using them with the linoleum. I
do use the acrylics for the final hand-coloring, but need something
that's waterproof for the initial printing that works well with
linoleum.

I thought I had dropped off Exchange #42 to waiting list status because
someone wanted to be on that exchange very much, so I gave her my place.
Now I see that I am no longer on the waiting list. Also, I sent a message
about moku hanga which did not get printed. Have I been thrown off Baren?
I would like to please be reinstated.

Jean, I archived your message re moku hanga yesterday, so it was in
yesterday's Baren digest.
