Painting with Alcohol Inks
Alcohol inks are the new rage in artistic medium. They are fast drying, highly pigmented, alcohol soluable inks. They produce an ethereal and abstract effect. They're great when used on hard, non porous surfaces such as glass, metal, plastic, ceramic, stone, leather, when the ink is applied, the alcohol evaporates, leaving the dye behind extraordinary patterns and versatile effects. Come and experiment with Karen, she'll show you techniques with quills, swabs, straws, brushes, you'll learn layering techniques, blooming, blending and so much more. Come prepared to experiment and you'll be amazed by the bright and vibrant results !
