Taccia are making a series of inks based on Japanese Ukiyo-e artists and selections of their works. The current two series are based on four works from Sharaku Tōshūsai (this series) which are portraiture works and the other series (which you can view here) is on four works from Hukusai Katsushika which are landscape works. The inks take inspiration from specific colours in each of the works. Taccia has plans to expand the series of Ukiyo-e inspired inks.
Thanks to Desk Bandit for generously providing samples of 6 of these inks.
