An ink-jet image recording method is disclosed. In the method an aqueous ink containing a colored particles comprising a colorant and a resin is employed, and following Formula 1 is satisfied; n Formula 1 n 15≦ w ≦150 n wherein, w is a parameter expressed by following Formula 2; n Formula 2 n w=(dm+ds)/{(NV×vd)/r 3 }×10,000 n wherein, ds is a recording density in dpi in a moving direction of the recording medium and dm is a recording density in dpi in a direction perpendicular to the moving direction of the recording medium, NV is the colored particle content in the ink in weight percent, vd is a volume average radius in meter of the colored particles and r is radius in meter of the ink droplet. |
