Inkistry 2025 – 4 January


Introducing… Salty Ohio Ice Rick “Volt”! We definitely learned some things today. I decided to add 4 parts Saltwater Taffy, which is a light pink/red/orange looking ink in the bottle. I was thinking it would. Ring out the reddish sheen of the Tesla Coil. Instead, it intensified and darkened the blue! This produced an ink with a richly dark blue that occasionally reveals the wild secrets of the Tesla Coil hidden within. Fascinating!

Darker for sure in straight writing
Darker straight on, and with less Tesla sheen showing through…
…but the sheen is definitely still there!
This seems as far as I want to take this first Inkistry of the year.

And now I have a vial filled with 4 ml of what I’m calling Salty Ohio Ice Rink “Volt” (Ohio River plus Ice Rink, add Tesla Coil to make it “AC”, add more Tesla Coil to make it “Volt”, and add Saltwater Taffy to make it “Salty”).
