I love working with alcohol inks because each piece is guaranteed to be unique and impossible to replicate. The inks flow and shift until all the alcohol that suspends the dye pigments evaporates. At that point, the inks solidify into the patterns they formed during evaporation. To reactivate the dyes, more alcohol can be applied, allowing me to manipulate the designs through techniques such as blowing, tilting, brushing, or other movements. Once I am satisfied with the outcome, I apply a UV spray to prevent fading, followed by a finishing sealer. Alcohol inking adds a vibrant splash of colorful abstraction to everyday objects.
