Well again no expert but I use them with a swipe of a wet or damp brush on the blocks together with watercolour. I like inktense because of the vibrancy. These strawberries look delicious Carolyn.

These are lovely Carolyn. Love your title. Great shine on the strawberries.

Yum yum......love the shine, nicely done Carolyn especially with a new medium. Can’t help you out with advice, I’ve never used inktense.
