52 Postcards | Week 10

What's brown and sticky?

A stick.

Or the Akua intaglio ink I used to print this guy. I liked that it stayed wet longer than the Speedball ink I have been using. But cleanup was a bear. And of course my brayer went on a joyride off the table, across the floor in the middle of the printing. I'm not sure I will make the switch for my small postcard project but if I get into printing larger pieces, I will definitely try it out. I got this jar for free, thank you Angela.
