    Paletteful Packs – March 2023

    Contents Daler-Rowney FW Acrylic Artist Ink – Black Daler-Rowney FW Ink is an acrylic pigment-based, water-resistant ink with a high degree of lightfastness and intermixability. FW Acrylic Inks can be used straight out of the dropper, or diluted to achieve the most subtle of tones, very similar in character to watercolor.
