Ink Review #772: Taccia Ukiyo-e Utamaro Aomurasaki

Today we will be reviewing another Taccia ink! I always look forward to these reviews as I’ve found their inks to be very smooth.

Swabs:

Utamaro Aomurasaki is a dark plum with high shading and no sheen. This is a deep purple that can pass off as black.

Utamaro Aomurasaki had an average, smooth flow and was well-saturated.

Overall: This color was a hit for me! I liked the shading, flow, and color. (I inked my journaling pen with the rest of the ink sample after this review!)
