Introduction to alcohol ink (Rosslyn Bosnar)

Alcohol inks are fast-drying, highly pigmented, alcohol-based inks that are great to use on any hard, non-porous surface including glass, metal, plastic, ceramic, stone, leather and polymer clay. Once the ink is applied, the alcohol evaporates, leaving the dye behind. Once alcohol ink dries, it can be re-wet with rubbing alcohol (91% Isopropyl Alcohol), allowing for unique and versatile effects that cannot be achieved with water-based products like acrylic paint. Alcohol ink is waterproof, adding to its durable properties.

This workshop include a number of techniques on Yupo paper, 2 ceramic tiles and a glass vase/container.

Materials for introduction class will cost $30.00 paid directly to the tutor on the day. This will include a glass Vase, yupo paper, tiles, paint. Students will usually finish two tiles, 1 glass vase and a num-ber of yupo paper samples.
