Can you use photo paper since it has that glossy side will it work?
@artminwithlynn10 күн бұрын
Yes! That’s a great affordable way to practice and play. I like using the yupo even in practice now, just because I like to cut up, collage and rework things I may not like at first and yupo is more resilient for that. The photo paper has a limit to its workability after a bit.

To me that is a waste of alcohol week honestly if you do the alcohol ink inside and then cover the alcohol ink with latex paint it is a lot lot cheaper and it works a lot better. I have gorgeous ornaments done this way and I’ve done tons of them this way, I love the colors. I love that the white pulls down and lightens the colors in the draining process it’s amazing what you get and it’s so fun once you add the white over the metallic or the alcohol ink waiting to see what the white makes pop

I see many other commenters also wondered about sealing wood coloured with alcohol ink. I plan to use only brown, black, white, and maybe red. A woodworker mentioned combining with shellac/shellac flakes for better longevity. Do you feel a top coat is necessary and, if so, have you tried mixing inks with shellac? Thanks for this great info!
@artminwithlynnАй бұрын
The necessity of a sealer depends completely on the project and its future use, but is generally a good idea. I have not tried mixing them with shellac. As long as it is not water based there is a good chance the inks will be compatible. Worthy of a test for sure. Sealers I have used with success include dorlands wax, jacquards wax medium, Kamar spray varnish and Art Resin.

so cool! what about putting it on lightbulbs?? or would the varnish be problematic.... inked lightbulbs could look cool hanging around a room. like little glowing planets. (?). :)
@artminwithlynn2 ай бұрын
The inks are not lightfast so putting them in an intense light situation like that would make them fade fast. I also would have reservations about the varnish directly on a bulb. I have however, made light shade situations before. They turn out pretty cool, but one has to be ok with the colors fading quicker than most. Good Ideas here tho! Alcohol ink illuminated planets sound like a very cool plan. Making an inked orb and having a small light hanging inside would totally work.

Can you wipe it with straight alcohol to remove the color if its not sealed
@artminwithlynn3 ай бұрын
It will lighten it, but just a little bit. The wood is so porous it holds the color in very effectively. You can get more after application adjustments if the wood is finely sanded to a more smooth surface.

@artminwithlynn4 ай бұрын
Put just a drop or two down and lay the plastic wrap over it while it’s still wet. You can then scrunch the wrap around to move the color and create wrinkles. Leave it to set for a long time, no air means long set time. Time varies depending on amount of ink used but at least 30-45min. You can peel up an edge and if the color stays in its place pull off the wrap and let dry open for a few min.

No heat gun either with alcohol ink works too? Can I spray alcohol for bubbles? Can I use low heat gun? Love your work!
@artminwithlynn4 ай бұрын
Thanks! A butane torch like what you get for cooking will work. I don't think a low heat gun will be effective in this case. You just have to be careful because if you have a large amount of Ink just sitting on top of the resin, it can catch fire. I advise to wait a bit, like 5min or so, and let inks settle into the resin, if you want to torch for bubbles. I do not think spraying alcohol will help.

My favorite thing to use it on is tile. I’ve done so many and have made some beautiful things with them. When dry, I resin them so that they don’t smear or fade. When using the tiles for coasters, make sure your resin is heat proof. I even blew some ink onto a large tile to look like a forest floor and then oil painted a tortoise coming out of the vegetation. There is absolutely nothing you can’t do with these wonderful inks.

Right?! They are one of the most versatile mediums I have ever used. I totally love the look of resin coated tiles, they look like candy when done. Great tip about the heat with resin! I use Art Resin and it is not good with heat at all but great for sealing artworks. I love that you are working in layers and adding other paint mediums. Very nice!

I use Ampersand boards. They are archival and have a variety of surfaces to choose from. For this application their gesso or clay board will be perfect. Claybord works really well with alcohol ink! They are sold in art shops or can be ordered. I get mine from Preston Arts Center in Louisville KY. If ya just want to play with the technique to start any rigid board would work just fine.
