kakishibu 019- things i've learned



  • on paper it is most effective if it's brushed on.
  • time and many brush ons give more depth of color.
  • although it is a tannin and theoretically does not need mordanting, great tones can be achieved using sodium bicarbonate or alum  mixed with the liquid.
  • letting the solution stand for some hours improves solubility, also using boiling water.

















more work to be done.thinking about concentrating efforts on kakishibu as it is a lot more manageable than aizome in my present living situation.
