Indigo Hour is less a place than a temperature — when the paper still holds daylight but the pigment has already decided it is night.

The question

Indigo can deaden a page. The work needed depth without becoming a flat navy slab.

On the paper

Granulating indigo poured into damp wells, salt crystals for stars of lift, a thin sap-green breath at the horizon so the blue never feels alone.
