Walnut Drawing Ink *NEW Sizes!

Tom Norton Walnut Drawing Inks owe it’s reputation for supreme quality, to it’s unique formula which uses premium imported pigments. Experience the unique characteristics and beauty of the ink used by the Old Masters – Without the acidic qualities of the old formula that fades, is highly acidic and damages paper over time. Tom Norton Walnut Drawing Inks are extremely lightfast.

New Sizes: 60 ml and 250 ml

Darkening Medium 42 ml

Tom Norton’s Darkening Medium is not an ink, but an additive to be used to darken the original ink when a drawing needs that extra “punch”. Some artists will add black India ink to darken the color of Walnut Ink. This will work, but you sacrifice the unique characteristics of the ink and lose the ability to lift color or lighten areas.

The Darkening Medium is very heavily pigmented. It is made with the same binder as the original so it can be added or mixed with Tom Norton’s Original Ink without changing its working properties. It can also be used straight from the bottle. However, it is so heavily pigmented it will behave more like a Sumi ink and stain the paper and not lift as easily as the original.

Is Tom Norton Drawing Ink Made From Real Walnuts?

No, the ink is not made from walnuts. The ink is a medium brown color made from premium lightfast pigments that will not fade over time. The ink is also acid free. Genuine walnut ink is highly acidic and actually eats the paper over time. The drawings of the Great Masters were made with genuine walnut ink, which was black when it was freshly made. Over time it faded to the beautiful sepia tones that they are now. Our Walnut colored ink replicates these sepia tones. Our product is water-based allowing you to achieve darker tones with layering techniques or lifting to lighten.
