137] Alcohol Ink : My Favorite AIRBRUSH for Just Blowing Air and Why!

[@adele6592]

Thankyou so much. I just received an airbrush, and couldn’t even put it together! I am now going to get the same as you, and I appreciate you shoeing me how to actually connect it. 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗

[@kearablazek]

Glad I came across this video before buying an airbrush. Thank you!

[@chrissimiles3599]

Thanks so much for explaining this. Just the information I need. 🙏🤗

[@marciacook2166]

Thank you so much for this video. I've been using my breath, a straw, and a hair blower!! This is going to be fantastic!!!

[@lorrainehancock481]

Thank you for this video. I'm in the UK and just purchased this airbrush & compressor to use with alcohol inks and can't wait to get started! Thankfully I remembered to buy a US to UK adaptor too!

[@marlasandridge708]

Myriam, your timing couldn't be more fortuitous! I spent far too many hours on Saturday looking for an airbrush that I could use just to push air around, tonight while listening to some jazz I looked up the menu list and saw your title, My Favorite AIRBRUSHfor just blowing Air & Why! I am in heaven and quickly going over to Amazon and purchasing what you suggest! Thank YOU so much for basically making my decision for me, now just loan me some of your talents and I will be even happier!

[@MyriamsNature]

That’s so awesome to hear Marla! Thank you for taking time to tell me... and for leaving such a lovely comment!! 😊😘💕 I hope you thoroughly enjoy using it!

[@rtishcreations]

I am so HAPPY you made this video, I had an airbrush years ago, I have NO idea where it is. LOL Recently, I went to Amazon and I was LOST in choosing the right Airbrush for me, this video helped allot I will get the Masters.. THANK YOU!

[@rojelioluna7665]

Awesome idea... Hadn't thought of that. Appreciate you

[@dhp091659]

I also purchased this one a couple weeks ago after reading reviews on Amazon. I finally figured out how to get the wispy effects last night after many failures with other methods and find that it is much easier with this airbrush as you can control the amount of air flow by how much pressure you put on the trigger. I was really happy to see that you also use the same model. Thank you for sharing your videos. I find them very helpful.

[@CanadianKim]

I love the fact that it isn't running continuously! I honestly hate noise and I live with family in a small space, so I've put off getting an airbrush for my art, but now I'm gonna save up and give this one a go, thanks!

[@veronicakamm7566]

Thank you so much. My son got me the Master G-23 airbrush and I am now going to get the compressor. I love your videos and learn so much from them.

[@sandywogaman1149]

Thank you, Myriam!

[@lisad.3247]

Hello Myriam! I am so glad I found your video. I so want to learn how to make flowers and designs using alcohol inks and the air brush. Thank you for sharing. I will be following you on fb and yt to learn more about this technique.

Ordered mine today, thank you so much for helping us new to alcohol ink painting and the supplies.

[@tanyapolak9094]

Yes, thank you...been looking at what to buy as I'm very new to this...I did look at this one earlier this morning and most of the reviews were bad, even for alcohol ink people said it was crap...but after watching I might get it anyway, as I'm using air in a can and a straw lol

[@bbosque13]

Then I will have to go back to all your videos where you were using one.. thanks again Oh, one other question, can the alcohol inks be used in it? I know I've seen airbrush paints but dont know anything about them.

[@melleartz]

A really useful overview, thanks Myriam. ❤️

[@reneediclaudio1]

Thank you for this helpful video! Right to the point and extremely helpful 😊

[@FionaHedgecock]

Thank you for this very helpful video! I just received my new airbrush today, and because I bought it from AliExpress there were no instructions included! I was beginning to wonder if I’d bought one that only operates with ink or paint in it, as no air was coming out, but thankfully I discovered from watching your video that I need to press down as well as draw back on the lever, DUH!!!

[@janieness5158]

I love your clear, concise instructions. Thank you!

[@MyriamsNature]

Thank YOU for the kind comment Janie! And thank you for watching. 😊💕

I found your video to be so helpful. I am new to alcohol inks and was looking for a way to better control the flow while working with them. You nailed it and now I understand. Thank you.

[@DR-to5hb]

There is also the Tim Holtz alcohol ink air blower for like $14. No air compressor, no loud noise, just a handheld item.

[@cynthiaroberts9381]

I loved this video, but, I bought the Master with the regulator which I'm happy with, I did not know about the other Master, which would if been good for me. Maybe later, I will purchase that one. Thanks for sharing, now I know.

[@snippetsforblog1729]

This is very helpful

[@HerHuntress]

Thank you for the advice! I am looking to invest in one soon!!

[@gaild9748]

This was great the reviews on Amazon arent good but they were using materials not just air. So this helped me make the decision for alcohol ink. Thank you

[@CreateAgain]

Great video, wish I'd seen this a couple of weeks ago. I just bought a compressor like the one you briefly showed with the regulator and I do feel it's very high tech for what I use it for currently, which is to just blow air around. 👍

[@mawi1172]

I thought you were very helpful. What I didn't know I needed to know about air brushes. How often do you use the regulator one compared to the middle one?

[@anneugartechea7650]

Thank you for confirming the best use type of airbrush. Having tried the plastic straw tq leaves me breathless (literally). Lousy lungs. This gives me another way to create. I love sue-me-a which works better with the airbrush. So much better than spitting all over the piece! A big no-no in our current world. Stay healthy and safe!

[@MyriamsNature]

Hi Anne! I completely relate about having lousy lungs... I wouldn’t wish mine on a 90 year old monkey 😅. I recently bought a book on Sumi-e and look forward to exploring. It had never occurred to me that I could airbrush in that medium. Thank you for that idea. It sounds like there’s some airbrush fun in YOUR future. I wish you endless enjoyment with it and lots of health! 😊💕

[@anneugartechea7650]

@@MyriamsNature I love your note! The trick, I think, to using the air brush is to get a happy medium...when you shove the ink with air, there has to be a juicy feel to it so it doesn't fade out. Yet, keep it flowing like a hockey puck on ice. I hope that made sense! My lazy days are almost over. Hopefully going back to work on Wednesday. Thank you and stay healthy!

[@tinaprocaccini4351]

Hi Myriam, Thank you very much, that was helpful and informative. I haven't used my in so long, I'm going to check it out as and see what I have. I hope I have the one that doesn't run all the time.

[@MyriamsNature]

You are more than welcome Tina. Even if you do have a continuous compressor, it will still make very beautiful work. My Point Zero (the continuous one) makes equally pretty pieces to the Master so fear not. It’s a convenience thing more than anything. 😘💕

[@janisbaker5873]

Hello Myriam , I purchased this airbrush and can’t figure out for the life of me how to adjust the psi! Can you help please? Thank you! By the way wishing you a happy healthy and prosperous new year!

[@karenmcdonald5813]

Thanks Myriam! I have the point zero but I think I'm going to invest in the master. I do have to keep shutting it off.

[@annettegay8839]

Thanks so much I have the one that you use. However I have messed with that button that you leave alone. So my question would be since I have no idea if it’s up or down where is yours all the way up or all the way down or somewhere in the middle? I’m a pain. I know. But any help would be greatly appreciated. This was a great tutorial! Thank you so much.

[@MyriamsNature]

Mine is all the way down for what that’s worth Annette. Like I said, I honestly don’t see much difference when it’s up, but it could just be mine?? I do hope that helps. 😊💕

[@ellym279]

I ordered the airbrush, but didn't include compressor (my mistake). How big is the compressor? Thanks for your help. I appreciate your videos. 💓

[@nikisnoggin8784]

How do you set it up? The AC SETUP OR DC Setup?? I'm so confused

[@jillf24]

I am new to alcohol inks, and I bought the cheap clear tube to blow through thinking it is longer than a straw, and easier to direct. Problem is-the humidity in my breath creates specks in my ink. No to mention I get out of breath. I am ordering this one-thank you so much. for the review. I hope I can attach a filter to this one for moisture?????

Hi Myriam! Have you updated or found any better air brushes since this video aired over a year ago? Advice much appreciated!

[@daricedavis6979]

I have a similar question -- I need a mini Master Air Brush air on demand compressor only. Since Pandemic no one is selling compressor by itself. Would you have any suggestion where I could get the compressor without buying another air brush tool? Thanks. This video is very helpful! I have no clue how to use it until I watched you here.😊

[@irmaloeza8210]

Hi, what number of needle do you use for make flowers?

[@juditharowland3461]

Hi..This was terrific. I just received my new airbrush, hanks to you, from Amazon. I was wondering about something new. There is an ink brand on Ebay called Wizard Alcohol Inks. I was wondering if you had used them. They are inexpensive but can take a month to arrive from Israel. Otherwise I would have ordered some. I'm still waiting to get the Kielty.........too many things to buy! Too many supplies that feed my soul!

[@lesliclark8634]

Thank you!!😊

[@IamSwatiNigam]

Thanks for this video and all the other videos you make Myriam! I am going to start alcohol painting. Got my inks today. I have a question about the airbrush tool -- can you please give me the amazon link to the Point Zero airbrush? You said that one is cheaper. So I would like to get that one for me. What are the different things I will need in the airbrush set to use only for alcohol inks? Thanks so much! :-)

[@KellieChasse]

This is the same one that I recommend in my Online Alcohol Ink courses! So glad to hear you recommend it too. :) I love the little air pressure this one gives off with Alcohol Inks. ❤️

[@MyriamsNature]

That is awesome to hear Kellie! Thanks for telling me 😁. It’s starting to sound as if everyone that HAS gotten it loves it. Woo hoo. 😘💕

[@lynnemeyers3735]

This is the air brush that I purchased several months ago! Love it. Is there a difference in pulling back on the trigger &/or just depressing it?

[@MyriamsNature]

Hi Lynne! When the airbrush is empty it doesn’t really matter. When the cup is full of ink or paint, pulling back on the trigger releases the paint (and you can adjust the amount by how far back you pull the trigger). Just depressing the trigger only blows air. This is the case in a “double action” airbrush like the one that comes with the Master kit. There are some single action brushes where you can only push down and that just releases paint. 😊💕

[@lynnemeyers3735]

Miriam, Ty so much. I've had some interesting effects when using it.

[@Rainfeather1]

thank you for this video......i just got my air compressor and didnt know how to put it together

[@pamkriner5945]

Thanks!

[@stephaniesinnott6587]

Thank you so much for this short video. I have the Master Air Brush, but have not used it too much. I feel I need a good amount of time to sit and try it out. My work space is small so have to make room to work with it. But now that you have shown us about it and how simple it is to work, maybe I can pull it out and start to experiment. Thanks again for all your help with Alcohol Ink art.

[@godisgood603]

Hi, would this work in UK? is it a two pin plug in US? Will I need an adaptor? Would wattage work? Sorry for all questions but it's quite dear to purchase with the shipping and all, so would really appreciate some clarification. Thanking you and love your work and brilliant tutorials ❤

[@MMGARC]

Thank you, Mariam - for explaining in great detail regarding the air brush and compressor. I had no idea which one to get. I'm just beginning alcohol ink techniques, and I think getting the right air brush will help so much. Question: Can you recommend the best paper to use for alcohol ink? I do have Yupo paper - would that be best??? I absolutely love all your work and have decided to Subscribe to your channel. I LOVED THIS VIDEO!! You are so sweet. Looking forward to watching all your video's. Thank's again!!

[@MyriamsNature]

Hi Maeve! Welcome to the wonderful world of alcohol ink... I think you’re going to love it 😊. Thank you for subscribing. I hope that this channel will be useful to you. Yupo is very good for alcohol ink in that is non-porous and for many years it has been the “paper” of choice for alcohol inkers. Late last year I had the privilege of being a tester for a new plastic paper that I now recommend more : Grafix Opaque White. Here is a video that explains why : kzbin.info/www/bejne/a4bUoYShncyWfbs Here are links for the plastic : - 9x12” - pack of 25 sheets: bit.ly/Grafix-9x12-25 - 12x12” - pack of 25 sheets: bit.ly/Grafix-12x12-25 - 12x12” - pack of 4 sheets: bit.ly/Grafix-12x12-4 If you’re on FB, I’d love to have you join my group... there are a lot of alcohol ink artists sharing their work, resources, etc. It’s a great place to ask questions, get inspired, and show off what you make. If you’re interested, here is the link: facebook.com/groups/Myriams.Fluid.Art.Tribe I hope that this all helps a bit. Happy, happy New Year to you and yours!! ✨🎆💕🎇✨ 😊

[@jasonballinger3549]

Do you like Ranger as much as Maribu or pinata inks ?

[@deeholman5176]

Myriam, this is exactly what I need. I do have questions. Is the compressor noisy? Is there a lot of maintenance to the compressor? And what about the Airbrush, is it hard to clean? I tried an airbrush but I bought it separately from the compressor and the two did not seem to be compatible. So I sent those back. I realize I need to buy the two items together so I know they will be able to fit and use. I do like your video and it is helpful. So thanks for the video. One last question. Can this airbrush and compressor strong enough to blow paint as in a dutch pour?

[@chiarettamathe7071]

Does this airbrush work for Australia ?

[@christinaevans5362]

I have been looking at both of the bigger compressors you have in your description. They both have some bad reviews. Could you give me your opinion please. ?

[@mollierhodes2783]

Hi. Newbie here. I have been needing just this info but I have a question....maybe a dumb one but.... the type of project I need an airbrush for requires short, powerful bursts of air such as from canned air. Will this airbrush achieve that? I will also be using for moving around alcohol inks, but for now I need the same air power potential as canned air. Many thanks!

[@MyriamsNature]

Hi Mollie! I am a strong believer that there are no dumb questions when we’re trying to understand something. 😊 Canned air actually isn’t air but pressurized hydrocarbons I believe. My understanding is that they escape the can at anywhere from 70 psi and higher. Could blowing weaker bursts for a bit longer achieve what you need? The advantage of the airbrush over the canned “air” is that the airbrush will not become too cold to handle as the can will after a few blasts. If you must have higher pressure your best bet will probably be a “real” compressor/regulator. It will allow you much more control and much higher psi. They are significantly larger but not very much more in cost. I hope that was of some help. 😊💕

[@mollierhodes2783]

Myriam's Nature thank you so much. What I’m trying to do is make some flowers on tiles like I’ve seen on Pinterest. When the canned air is aimed at the dot of alcohol ink it “shoots out” to form the flower petal. I hope this makes sense. That’s what I am trying to do. So if I order a larger compressor it can do this plus everything the one you reviewed will do as well? Thanks for your time. I am amazed by your work and inspired by your personality.

[@robinlang808]

No matter what setting I have the compressor on, balance of alcohol and ink I still can’t get the soft wispy look it goes off in all different directions in little squiggles, Help!

[@janebrownell6828]

I have the same airbrush. I've never tried working with alcohol inks. But after seeing what you did, wow, that's in my future!

[@MyriamsNature]

Wooo hoo! I think you’ll have lots of fun with that Jane! I wish you much success and creativity with it. 😊💕
