ALCOHOL INKS ARE HAVING A MOMENT!

Alcohol inks are highly pigmented inks that are fast drying and very fluid. Being alcohol based they can be applied on a variety of non-porous surfaces and have a glow unlike other flow paints.  The abstract fluid art that you can create with alcohol inks is fun and easy as well as being absolutely stunning. 

Try out this fabulous medium and learn how you can create gorgeous fluid abstract paintings by combining Alcohol Inks with fluid acrylics, acrylic inks and other mediums  for some different effects.

Be guided step by step through what you can do with alcohol inks on yupo paper (a special type of synthetic and recyclable, waterproof paper perfect for alcohol inks) to create your very own abstract artworks that will look stunning framed on your wall. These artworks also make gorgeous gifts as well!
