I'm very fond of it as a wash on detailed surfaces (as you might do a RIO
wash) wiped off the high points... unlike RIO, the Albany doesn't "stain"
the clay where it's wiped off... I've been very happy with the high contrast
in stamped / textured areas on porcelain... I understand that a mix of
albany and cobalt will give you a beautiful black... haven't tried it yet,
still too entranced with the brown...
Toodles,
Andi.
