Write a reviewSepia is a colour I particularly like for monochrome drawings as it has a less 'architectural' quality compared to black. This ink has a beautiful colour and the mix is ideal for pen work - not too gloopy but still with a strong colour. My only problem has been when trying to use it in a wash, when it becomes more unpredictable. However, that is probably down to technique and the need for a bit more practice.
Colours bright and clear. Layering creates deeper shades and a glazed effect. With care they mix well either on the page or before application.
Can't fault the brilliance of W & N inks.
