Hello!
I love to paint! .... and to share what I know!
Although I have knowledge in many mediums of paint, alcohol inks are my current go to. Something drastic would have to happen for me to stop using these beautiful bright dancing inks!
Become a part of the community. Ask me questions or share your knowledge in the alcohol inks or with art in general! I'd love to hear from you!
I have new videos every Friday, if there's something you'd like to see a video on, please let me know in the comments on any of my videos. I look forward to hearing from you.
Enjoy!

Portraiture with masking fluid and alcohol ink
Portraiture painting in a silhouette style layering with masking fluid and moving ink around on top.
This is a slower video showing you how I work and this particular process, with some instructional notes along the way. Its great fun to work with this technique, although is a little more challenging to do, as you are working a bit blind as you get more layers on. So much fun to do the reveal at the end!
Why not start off more simple with your design or do something more abstract to start to test the results for yourself. That's all I do. There's usually a lot more practice pieces before I show you ones like this!
I'd love to hear about your results, so come back and let me know how you get on!
Any questions? Just ask in the comments! :)

A time-lapse video of painting Michael Jackson in a silhouette form. I haven't put notes but it's an easy process. You sketch out your design. Then fill in the design with masking fluid, (any brand or colour) and then once the masking fluid is dry put your chosen colours over the top. Move around with whatever technique you like and with whatever colours you like. I stuck with mostly black, (an...

A video with speed, but hopefully shows you how quickly and simple you can make a beautiful landscape. Don’t overdo it or overthink it! The video is sped up, but basically I used lots and lots of alcohol, with the ink and moved it around, letting the image design itself mostly. I occasionally used the straw to push the ink a bit more in the direction I wanted. Ifyou have any questions... put th...

Hairdryer tips with your alcohol ink
Absolutely beautiful and so creative!!! I love the abstract background I love the placement of the hard lines and the color is so vibrant. Thank you for sharing your masterpiece!
I love the mdf premade boards as well. I wouldn't doubt that kelpie isn't some kind of modge podge with acrylic additive to be honest. lol, I believe that company is making bank on a product when there are other cheap coating alternatives, such as dang spray paint for all surfaces, including plastic.
Can’t hear it I don’t know what she is doing!
Hi what brand ink do you use ? Also do you use isopropyl on tile before you put ink on ? Oh and do you seal the tile after ?
Lovely! Where can I get one of those blowers with the fine tip? Thank you.
What brushes are you using?
i wanna ask if we finish it how to dry it ? let it dry naturally or use the blower
Thanks for the video. Try slowly moving the alcohol with a toothpick before placing your paper/yupo on the surface and use tweezers or meat tongs to get it out again - it’s easier to get the workout of the water. 🥰
I'd love a "how- to" for a simple alcohol ink over a sketch design
Amazing!!!
Ditto for the trees. The lollipop colors really pop and the subtle sky is a perfect background. An inspiration for being creative and loose. Thank you.
Love this☺ so fluid and a joy to keep watching, what paper did you use please Jill
Great little video.
Very nice!
Ooh very cool, marveling with alcohol ink. Great “what if…?” My favorite is the one with more colors on the long piece of paper. 👍
What iff you put isopropanol in the bowl with alcohol ink?
Use this paper name
I agree, would be nice if you slowed down and explained more.
Love this! Going to try one like it! Thank you for sharing and showing us your process. It’s gorgeous!! ❤
Very nice music, i like watching come together @! Ty Crystal
Loved this. So used Very hard to hear though
Great video, but with it moving so fast and not explained I can’t be sure I will do it right or get the same results😢
Beautiful!
Cool❣️ Hugs😘🥰🤓 Lynda
Just too fast for me to read 😩
Ever try PC fans or EDF. To slow drying have you considered a room humidifier. Turn on 3 hours before hand. keep door closed of course.
Thanks for sharing such a great and insightful process.
Great experimenting!!
Beautiful
Is it really loud in person?
What is the tool you’re using to move around the ink please? I’ve tried so many tools & can’t quite find the right one for my needs. I’ve tried hair dryer, bulb rocket blower, straws, etc. I would love to know what this item is, because it looks like it’s exactly what I’ve been searching for. Thank you!
Very, very cool! I love it, too! Thanks for testing.
Aw! Thank you! I appreciate that!
Where did you get that long straw?
Its just two straws stuck together! I dont recommend using a straw anymore.... to blow through anyway. For two reason... because of the funes but also because you get water vapour droplets on your work.
hi love your work! you inspire me what did you stick the gold leaf down with? thanks Laura
Great experiment, thanks.
well done!
The straw seems extra long. Is it something special? Where did you get it?
Want to try this . You told me to get Frisk yupo paper but does it matter what weight of the paper 85 or 155. gsm. I would like to sketch and then alcohol on top. Thank you for all your tips. I have been binge watching your videos since finding you.
Love your painting. Can you do this on tile. I am a newbie in alcohol ink. My medium is pastel , love the the alcohol ink translucent look but yupo is expensive to practice on. Thank you for your tips.
Hi Sandy, thanks for your comment. You can do it on tile but it is a little more tricky because I find the inks move even more on tile than yupo. I've bought thin yupo from amazon in large sheet pads and cut them up. Its then not quite as expensive. I realise it can seem expensive but I think the same for inks that get "washed" off tile to try again. At least if you try on yupo you can always go back to it at a later date when you've practiced a bit more. The ink will always reactivate with alcohol... until sealed. Anyway! Just my thoughts on it. 😊 Main objective is to have fun!
@@spencer-millanart3253 thank you for your tip. I will try yupo. What brand from Amazon would you suggest.
@@sandyshinno4050 no worries! Frisk is what I've just to play around on. Have fun!
Hello, do you have the link of where to buy the kelpie? Thank you 😊
Hi! Sorry. Only just saw your msg. Kielty ink link www.kieltyink.ie/index.php?route=information/contact
Wow, that was fabulous!
Wow, that’s impressive!
Sigo viendo tus obras y me están gustando mucho. Este paisaje es genial. Ya sabía que nos ibas a enseñar cosas muy interesantes. Gracias por todo. Salud !
Hi. when you use the isopropyl alcohole it is safe to use to dry with the dryer with the warm air?
Hi, I know always use a mask to protect me from the fumes of the isopropyl alcohol. So with a mask it is safe, otherwise I would say no. Hope that helps!
@@spencer-millanart3253 Thank you.
No había visto nada tuyo y me ha gustado mucho. Voy a comenzar a ver tus primeras obras y seguro que voy a descubrir cosas muy interesantes. Gracias por tu generosidad.
Aw! Muchas gracias. Eres muy amable!
Would have been nice to know what you were using along the way.
Aw sorry! It was mostly a review about the kelpie product. Didn't think to put more details about the painting process. Hopefully you'll find more info for that in my other videos. Thanks for watching.
Lovely...thank you! What colours did you use for the sky?
Great to see how you created such a lovely sky...thank you!
These look lovely can you tell me where to buy them , I’ve looked at several sites and they don’t have them.
Beautifully talented artist!! All of your videos are so well done. Very creative & inspirational. Thank you so very much.
Sorry! Only just saw your comment! Thank you so much!
