Professional-Grade Inks Designed for Printmakers
Gamblin Etching Inks were developed in collaboration with professional printmakers in the Pacific Northwest who needed strong, consistent inks for edition printing. These handcrafted inks are packed with a high pigment load and bound in the finest quality Burnt Plate Oil—giving you rich, reliable color that responds beautifully to every mark you make.
Unlike lower-cost alternatives filled with extenders, Gamblin Etching Inks offer true value through their concentrated color and outstanding performance. Each ink is made in small batches at Gamblin’s Portland, Oregon factory to ensure quality and consistency.
