Video Tutorial - Alcohol Inks 101, Part 1
I've had a few email requests to make a video about alcohol inks, and ever one to be helpful where I can, here it is! The video turned out pretty long, so I've split it into two parts, part 2 follows tomorrow!
Dan you are amazing ... thanks for doing this ... I've had my inks for over a year and have been tooo afraid to play with them ... you make it seem so easy!
Brilliant again Dan, thank you. I've done the Dab and Twist before but never used the Drag and Swirl technique and I love the effects you got, can't wait to try it out. I'm really looking forward to tomorrow. Corrina
Wow, that was very cool Dan, thanks for that. You make it look so easy. I have done the Dab & Twist before but the Swirl technique looks great. Can't wait to try it out. I look forward to the next episode. Sarah
WOW! Thanks Dan, after watching this I am going to get my inks out and have a play. They have been sitting on my shelf for over a year, simply because I didn'treally know what to do with them apart from the dab and twist technique. Now I need a mat the same as yours to try out the drag technique:) Can't wait for the next installment.
Dan Thank you so much I'm really enjoying all of your videos. You make it look so easy! I'm definitely not very artsy or creative but, I want to try all of your ideas.
Thanks for these tuts Dan - You are so informative and cover all the little details and have such a great way of explaining everything - have learned a lot...
I have never tried this before, altho' I favor rubbing alcohol as another form of remover and thinner in my art-making. But your tutorial is so clear and easy to follow, it could well send me into the world of Alcohol Inks in general. Thanks again! Rose

ReplyDeletehey Dan, could you mist the blending solution to get a more even distribution? I don't have any to play with at home, but very curious. Linda aka oz
