Tim Holtz Alcohol Inks (Ranger) are alcohol-based dye inks designed for fluid, luminous and permanent color effects.
Smudge features a gentle warm-grey tone inspired by smoke and shadow. Perfect for minimal, neutral or vintage artwork, it provides balance and quiet contrast — a go-to color for subtle layering and soft background transitions.
Pair it beautifully with Flannel, Gravel and Pitch Black for elegant neutrals, or with Rosewood and Sienna for warm harmony.
The 15ml (0.5oz) bottle is perfect for small artworks, journaling, resin art and layered compositions. It applies smoothly on non-porous surfaces like yupo, glass, metal, plastic and ceramic, dries fast and can be reactivated with Blending Solution for fluid blending.
