"Where does ink come from? Well obviously ink in many many forms has been around for quite some time, thousands of years in fact. Early Chinese illustrators, I guess for lack of a better word, used to get their ink from different types of soot, from fire combined with certain foods and from different animal skins and carcasses and could write or draw using that. Today ink basically is a combination of different types of pigments, dyes and it's used for many many things obviously in the world we live in, not just for writing but for you know, coloring the clothes we wear and basically anything that involves some form of color in this day and age, on either printed materials or clothing or anything, comes from a certain form of ink. Ink is, I guess you could say, comprised primarily from solvents, pigments, dyes, resins, lubricants, many many many materials that when put together obviously create a form of colored dye, essentially that we can concentrate in different pens or markers or printer cartridges and all sorts of different things that create, you know fluid color, shapes and patterns and that is essentially, in this day and age, where ink comes from."
