The Fantasy Ink Series.

20121103-090227.jpg

Once in a while, a mad scientist channeling Nathan Tardiff takes over my consciousness. Some time back, I did a Star Trek fantasy ink series. Today it’s chocolate. I’d love to see these in rectangular bottles, sheathed in foil. Or even as real solid ink bars. Break off a segment and dissolve in distilled water to make your own ink on the spot, just like the ink tablets that were used during wartime.

    Oh my. This makes me need chocolate immediately… one of each of course. Lovely work.

    so for your fantasy series ala Star Trek, were there colors like Vulcan Blood, Data Skin Gold, and Gagh (red-black)?

    I had chocolate today. I think it was these inks acting up in my subconscious.

    Me too! Now to find someone to make them. :D

    From your post to ink-makers’ ears. How exciting it would be to use solid ink dissolved in water. I have a bottle of walnut ink from 7Gypsies. I bought it such a long time ago that I’ve forgotten how many years I’ve been saving it. I also have half-empty cartridges. Who knew ink in plastic evaporated?

    Your bottles remind me of insulin bottles. :) Backing up: Ink tablets are new to me. Time to Google. Thanks.
