Experimenting with Funkadelic Liquid Dichro Inks - Chills and Thrills

Experimenting with Funkadelic Liquid Dichro Inks - Chills and Thrills!

These have some color shift and are interesting to work with, very pretty.

They come from a very small company run by Erbie, and she mixes all of these herself with a little help.

She released the colors last October, and I finally purchased some to try out. Heads up the website is a bit tricky, so make sure you look at where you are shipping to.

You can find them here.

You can mix your own shimmer inks too, and I have a course on that!

Alcohol Ink Paper by Grafix Dura-Bright- Surprise Technique with Hand Lettering.

Quick and Fun Project for you!

Hi Art Peeps!

I wanted to share a quick and fun project with you. It's super fun and easy by the way, think how cool this would be for each month of the year. I did this project with Trex Alcohol inks, but you can also try it with watercolors on watercolor paper!

Special thanks to Grafix paper  for sending me some different papers to try out with some alcohol inks. The Dura-bright in Black will be out in stores soon. Write out your word with some craft glue then add some heavy coarse salt on top.

No need to wait for it to dry, just start adding your alcohol inks over the salt and let dry.

You can use some canned air to blow the ink around for a lovely background

Snowcap or Blanco works great to make the colors really pop since they make them more opaque.

You can find a full list of supplies in the description box on youtube. 

Put it in a frame once it's dry and you have a lovely little sign for your home.

I would love it if you shared your finished piece on Instagram and tagged me @kelliechasse_fineart

Happy Halloween!

XOXO,

Kell

LIVE ZOOM PAINT PARTIES!

I have taught LIVE watercolor classes locally for corporate events, fundraisers, private home parties, Hobby lobby, Joanne Fabrics, and Adult Education.

Last night I did my very first ZOOM virtual paint night as a test and I have to say, I've missed the live interaction with all of my students. This was so much FUN!!

I'm now thinking that during the Winter I'll be doing some private paint parties. I'll be posting more information about the LIVE events on my Instagram page.

I'll have to try it a few times more I'm sure to really get the hang of it. Not sure why it's taking me so long to give this a go. These ladies really enjoyed it, and it gave us all the one on one connection even though we are miles and miles apart.

Also wanted to share that my new BEE CREATIVE ALCOHOL INK Course is up and running now on my website and I hope to add it here to Udemy next month. Here's a peek at it.

This will be one of my longest courses so far with over 20 lectures and 2 hours of video content. You know that my courses don't have a lot of FLUFF, because I edit out most of that "WAIT TIME" for you.

There is a FREE tutorial on my youtube channel from the class, so you can try out this little coneflower using some alcohol ink techniques like stippling and lifting.

Feel free to reach out to me with any questions!

Have a creative day,

OXOX
