Iring:
I thought I'd share some of the videos I used as inspiration for my ART4U alcohol paintings.  I could watch these videos all day!  I need more practice, that's for sure.  I'd also like to do more of the ink dripping and doodling.

Stamping with Alcohol inks
Joggles

Joggles has other AI videos.  I searched youtube on "Joggles alcohol ink"

Iring:
Please share if you try these techniques!  The painting was not as hard as it looks, you really can get the ink to thicken just by putting it on a palette and stirring it around for a minute.  My problem is I am not a painter (well, one of my problems).

Also, what do you think about stamping with AI?  Joggles said she cleaned her stamp with rubbing alcohol.  That made me a little nervous.  It seems it would dry out your rubber ... but then it's not something I would do over and over again.  I did clean mine with rubbing alcohol but made sure to wipe it again afterward with a damp chamois.

Yankee:
I did catch one of those videos while watching creativation or however they spelled it.
I put it in my going to try it folder but hadn’t got to it.  She made it look easy, but she has a art degree.  You did a wonderful job.  I must try it!

Iring:
Yes!  Try it!  Jan reminded us that yupo paper can be wiped almost clean with rubbing alcohol.  I’d forgottten.  Now I’ll save a few practice sheets and I won’t feel like I’m wasting paper when I’m just playing with ink.

I haven’t gotten my hands on any yupo paper yet, but it is something I would like to try with the alcohol inks.  Thanks for sharing the resources.
