Alcohol Ink Flower Illustration Painting




Check out this simple alcohol ink demo tutorial - Last week we did the watercolor version, so check it out to see the differences between the two mediums. It's super fun to try it in another medium.  Again less than 15 minute warm up, the perfect project for a daily journal.  

I have the full demo video up on my youtube channel.



Here is last weeks watercolor version. Both of these are a very quick exercise but let me know in the comments below which one you prefer. 


This is a super easy way to create a very whimsical grouping of flowers very quickly. I'm using the brand Pinata inks by jacquard here along with some Mineral paper. We start with a very simple flower shape and try it with a few colors. Add some green stems then let that dry. Once it's dry you can use a black sharpie pen to outline the shapes giving it  wonderful illustration quality. Try using a few different brushes to see how it changes the flowers. Try the inks very wet and then more dry to see the difference in details.



I do offer up a Full online course on how to paint a lilac and sunflower, if you want to paint along!
