Alcohol Ink Painting




last night I saw this technique on someones blog - really sorry but I can't credit it have lost the link sorry.

I dropped various colours of alcohol ink on to a tile. Filled my water brush with blending fluid. Stamped my images on to acetate with stazon and heat set. Then picking the colours up with my brush painted the pictures on the reverse side - love the effect. And, apparently, you can just go back to the tile at any time to do some more painting - no need to freshen it up until you've used it all !!!

  4. It's a great technique isn't it Hilda, I love the effect it gives. I saw this demonstrated by Tim Holtz on a you tube video last year sometime. Just remember you can't use your water brush for anything other than the blending solution now, not sure why just know it said it doesn't work and after trying it I have to say I agree
    Your ATCs look fab
