Julie Tibus - The Artful Traveler
Приєднався 8 вер 2011
Julie graduated with Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the Center for Creative Studies in Detroit, Michigan. She has shown her art and taught at various art centers in the Midwest and Florida. She has won multiple awards from Juried art shows, Including Best in Show, Judges Choice and Honorable Mention Awards. Her website is Julie-Tibus.pixels.com
"My art is centered on exploring natural form, embracing color, and working
intuitively. I begin with a loose thought (floral, landscape, color, pattern, shape)
then move through the composition with an internal desire to free myself from
laboring and instead lose myself completely to the process.
I believe we all are creative and through art we can learn how to overcome the fear
of comparison, the unknown, and those hard expectations we impose on ourselves.
My work is for the viewer to experience, contemplate and enjoy."

Quick Charcoal Sketch: Joseph
This video (Joseph at the bottom of the well with his coat of many colors above) was created for a church in Ann Arbor, Michigan called "the greenroom". Their outreach through the arts is wonderful! I was asked to do a series of very quick charcoal drawings to match each weeks sermon.

Alcohol Inks - Little flowers tip
Переглядів 4664 роки тому
A little short on how I paint little flowers on a lilac bunch. This video was recorded by my sister-in-law right before a workshop in Tampa Florida. I want to thank her and I hope it is helpful : )
Lovely! Looks like a fun medium. How do you seal this project?
Wonderful! 🙀🌷
I thought (from playing with the alcohol inks) that they were WAAAAY too uncontrollable so this vid has been a revelation. In another vid could you show how you did the leaves?
Hi Andrea, i you look at my channel there are a few more recent videos and the one with Autumn trees shows the leaves pretty well ua-cam.com/video/dviqWU_DXJU/v-deo.html
Love your ink flowers…keep your tutorials coming..thank you.
Loved your workshop at Bonita Arts…you’ve inspired me to keep on trying…thank you so much, Connie
awesome tile would like to try it also who did the guitar back music
Your field of flowers painting is breathtaking. Just started using AI. You make it look so easy😍
Thank you Darlene- Keep practicing and you will get better and better- I have been using the medium for over 8 years
I just found your tutorials. Thank you so much-just love your techniques for making gorgeous flowers.
What type of paper are you using?
Hi, I use both Yupo Paper and Graphx Opaque white film - for practice I use the back of photo paper
So beautiful!!!
Hello. The Kirkland paper does not seem to be available anymore. Is there an alternate you could recommend? Thanks in advance!
Hi oh I didnt know that- I have since been using this Craft Plastic and absolutely LOVE it! www.amazon.com/Grafix-Opaque-Craft-Plastic-Embellishments/dp/B08LQNJB28/ref=sr_1_4?crid=2TPHHZ63M2E14&keywords=grafix+plastic+art+paper&qid=1692976660&sprefix=plastic+art+paper%2Caps%2C148&sr=8-4
I enjoyed the inspiration of using the Copic markers and posca pens to enhance your creation. Thank you Julie for the work of sharing your experience. Vicki.vanmersbergen
Thank you so much!
This was so fun to find! Just showed up on my feed! Hope you are well! 🤗
Thank you! You too!
Hi Julie… My friend and I are so excited to have met you at the Lakeshore Art Festival. Just live your work. Looking forward to taking one or two of your workshops this summer🌻
Oh thats so nice of you- Yes I hope we get to paint together in the future!
Wow, just beautiful. Looks like fun.
What do you recommend for sealing alcohol ink work just for protecting and to prevent fading? I have seen some mention of varnishes, but I am guessing some are better for alochol inks than others?
Hi ! Spraying with a fixative that won't disturb the inks is so important- I use Kamar Varnish Aerosol Spray and let dry for 24 hours and then a Gallery Series UV Archival Varnish spray - both are on Amazon
@@JulieTibus Thanks! How long do you wait before applying the varnish?
@@lindar7284 I would wait a minimum of 4-5 hours- but I usually wait until the next day : )
Wonderful painting and thanks for explaining your process. 😃
Thank you so much
Lovely 😍
Thank you Rhonda
This is excellent . I enjoyed the way you brought this to life! More Bible based drawings in the future? Moses was a godly and humble leader. It is evident here. Thank you!! How refreshing to see this!
OH THANK YOU! It was for a church in Michigan, I was honored to do it 🙏
I did not realize you could control Alcohol ink this way! I will try this painting, my son moved to Huntsville AL and I’m always excited to see a cotton field when I visit! And I love watercolor too and have been to Savannah so let’s see what you come up with next!
Hi and I am excited for you to try this technique!--We are heading to Savannah now and my brain is spinning with ideas!
Everything you do I want to see! Ink, watercolor! Surprise us! It is Christmas Day so Merry Christmas! 🎄✝️🤗💕
Awe thank you Janis and Merry Christmas!
Juliie,Like it~ really best , see u around, 😯
Thank you!
I will be these inks for the first time today. Thanks for the tips and I’m excited to try the cotton balls!
Oh I cant wait for you to try it- remember to do it more than once- you will just keep learning! i have painted many wild cotton balls😄
Wonderful instruction for learning alcohol ink painting! Thank you.
Thank you- Hope you try it!
This is so cool! Turned out fantastic! Glad I got to see you working on it in the beginning! Be creative and travel safe! 🤗
Thank you !
Thank you, I love to work on skies! and thank you for the well wishes 🥰
Lovely tile. I do wish I could attend one of your courses but it’s a little too far from where I live…
Thank you. I teach in Michigan and Florida- where are you located?
@@JulieTibus Northern Italy!!! 🤣🥰
@@Richiedei50 Oh I would love to do a class there!!! Maybe someday 😀
@@JulieTibus Wishful thinking 🤣🥰
Excited to see you here in Florida!
Thank you Janis!
I texted our mutual friend! She got a kick out of it. Small world. Enjoy your travels and come back. We all truly enjoyed every second. 🤗
@@janisstasiak544 Thats so funny - such a small world! I enjoyed our impromptu class!
Love the drip stems and the flowers just have a life of their own.
Me too, lmk if you try this and how it goes!
So many techniques. Awesome.
Amazing how the finishing techniques totally transforms the entire picture.
Wow! Truly amazing piece, with so many techniques. Great message.
It is a beautiful tile but the video was too fast. You explained how you did the foreground and sky, and colours and did not explain how you drew the trees and video too fast to follow. Disappointing.
Hi Bonnie- This was my very first video and I have learned a lot since. Maybe you'd like a more recent one.
She did explain in the beginning, alcohol and a qtip for the tree branches, then inks for the leaves. 🤷♀️
@@JulieTibus Sorry I missed this. As I love the birch bark tile any more recent ones you'd have I'd view happily!. Thanks.
would love to know if that was a glazed ceramic tile
Hi Judy- Yes a Large glossy ceramic tile
wondering if anyone tried this on yupo?I've pulled ink from it before
organized chaos. that's what I call my space. it's like a Chinese puzzle box of Cluster..but I know where EVERYTHING is
Wish you had talked while you were painting! What is the bottle of fluid to the right that you used on the background? What was in the small pot that you used to remove the ink and make the trees?
Love what you have done with the ceramic tile. I have painted on ceramic tiles using alcohol inks. Love the beauty, and with brush, and Q tip, no dryer was necessary! This is beautiful 😍 Thank you for sharing.
Thank you Liz
I'm such a newbie that I don't know how you put the trees in. I've got to find a more "beginner's" demonstration. Thanks for posting.
I'm kinda a noob too. havent played a lot with my alcohol ink..but I use yupo and I have pulled all the color off I believe what she did...Used straight 90 %+alcohol ..no ink. and almost anti-painted...painted them with the alcohol..wiping all the ink off the brush or even a qtip would probably work for removing the ink in the tree shape. I hope you managed to figure it out...have fun
Love it.
.
Is the medium to clear the inks away, is that blending solution? 🤗
It could also be the isopropyl alcohol
This is gorgeous.
Fabulous! Really enjoyed the whole process. Thank you.
So glad!
I am really enjoying your videos!
Thanks Paula, trying a new thing during this quarantine : )
Just a suggestion but have you ever tried using Deco Foil on top of your flower. It will stick to those dark sticky spots and really look pretty!!
No Helen, I haven't use foil often but I do love the metallic gold pinata ink : ) Thank you for the suggestion.
Great job!!!
Thank you!!
Amazing!!!!
Thanks!!
WOW!! I love it.
Welcome to video land! I can see you're right handed, you might wish to set your camera up on the left. I couldn't really tell what you did at all to the birch tree details. At the end of the video, you may wish to hold your piece a bit closer so the details can be viewed. Out side of the helpful hints, your ending piece of art looked great! Best wishes with your future videos, I look forward to them! 😁 👍 ❤️
Thanks Ann, Yes new to this and hoping to get better, very open to any suggestions. my best, Julie
I heard from Myriam at Myriam's Nature that if you paint the tops of the lids of the inks with a drop of white paint, and then put the color of ink on top of the white, you can always get the right cap on the right bottle. Thank you for the video . . . make some more!
