Ink Sticks.
I love grinding ink sticks into ink stones.
It is possible to buy Chinese Ink ready made too.
These are one of the things in our shop which makes people think we are weird.Well I hope they see this and then decide to come in and buy some.
The painting of Chinese style pictures especially with the proper equipment is a very therapeutic thing.People with certain sensors stuck all over them have shown an immediate reduction in hypertension just upon a touch of the paper with their brush already dipped in the ink.
Ink sticks are art works in themselves.
If you do decide to use them,they actually last remarkably well.It takes a long time for them to get shorter, and the art work is often safe for quite some time.
To use them, you need an Ink Stone.
Into the Ink Stone Ink Well, you tip some water.
Dip the Ink stick into the water,dragging some back onto the main surface of the stone.
Grind Ink and Water vigorously and meditatively.
You will be creating some Ink.
How much time you spend grinding determines the darkness of your wet Ink.
Now Get your Chinese Brush, the sheet of paper, the vision of peace, and whatever you want to get out of your mind.
