Default Re: making ink from dyes

colloidal gum or arabic gum is what i have found to be the best option as a carrier for the dye.

i have also been told seaweed is a good thickener for organic dyes. that is what a friend of mine uses when she paints natural dyes on sik ties, unfortunately she just had a kid and i have not been able to talk to her more about it
