        Hi,

        Can I mix gouache and ink together (the same color/maker) for better opacity? and, be assured of colorfastness over time?

        I’m going into some small areas, and would rather paint them once, instead of over and over….my primary medium is gouache, on vellum.

        Thanks all.

            You might try Schmincke Calligraphy gouache. I haven’t had a chance to test them out yet, but they’re formulated to be used with a pen. I don’t see any reason why they couldn’t be mixed with ink if you want, but they might just make it unnecessary.
