Valley of a Thousand Flowers: Painting with Alcohol Ink

Alcohol Ink  is a new painting technique that just screams ABSTRACT. First you will create a sky using alcohol ink. Next, you will create a valley using multiple green colors using a brush. Your background is now complete. The best part will be applying different colors to make your flowers. You will soon have a beautiful valley of flowers.

If  you don’t like a part of your picture, you can wipe it off with ISO alcohol. Once your valley of flowers is complete, you can make a second picture or play on your own. Your instructor will also provide inspiration.

Your instructor will provide the following:

• Alcohol Ink
• Inks
• Brushes
• 99% alcohol
• Markers
• Gloves

Students are asked to bring:
Apron or wear clothes that can get messy
Since your class runs over the lunch hour, you may want to consider bringing a lunch or snack.
