Alcohol ink on nara - easy and cool effect with brushes [11]

New alcohol ink painting tutorial. Easy way (also for beginners) to make beautiful art with alcohol ink. It's all about learning to control the air - use low heat or cool air and something that is not to powerful.
It is the first time I'm using my new Remington hairdryer (it's very similar to the Revlon that I see many artist use)
It is a bit more powerful then my trusty old heat gun - so far I am liking my heat gun more but I might just need a bit more practice with the hairdryer. I will keep you updated in a upcoming video.
In this piece I have used Nara paper, of course, and also Copic N5, Piñata Sangria, Ranger silver mixative and 99% isopropyl alcohol.
For the details at the end I used a very small pointy brush - just a cheap one I bought at a local store, nothing fancy.
As always, I hope you enjoyed the video and found it helpful in some way.

I’m in awe. I love this music too. I was having an anxiety attack.Tried to find something to distract. Up popped this video. You are so talented. Subbing.

Beautiful! Great skills on controlling inks with hairdryer.

[@randihart5731]

Thank you 🙏 the new hairdryer.... was actually a bit tricky because it’s a little more powerful then my heatgun.

[@sandiguinnartescape]

Beautiful.

[@randihart5731]

Thank you 😃

[@donnasobanski779]

Love this piece! Some important things I’m learning from your tutorials: take your time, and don’t hesitate to use your finger to get the ink where you want it! I know you decided the green wasn’t right for this piece, but what colour and brand was it? It’s a gorgeous colour!

[@randihart5731]

Thank you 🙏 taking your time is definitely my best advice. The green is actually one of my favorites- it’s Ranger moss.

Very pretty, enjoyed your process. I have just started inks, and it is so much harder then acrylic pouring which I have been doing for two years. But where there's a will there is a way. Subscribed, and keep making wonderful videos. Stay safe.

[@randihart5731]

Thank you very much. When I first started I also quickly learned that ink is a lot harder then it looks.... just got to keep learning and practicing. Thank you for subscribing- more videos to come

Such a beautiful color! What brand are they ?

Uhh I don’t remember… 😊 I think I wrote the colors and brands in the video description

[@rahandapapadopoulou8790]

Hello and thanx for the infos! How can i find this you re using for the blowing?

[@randihart5731]

You’re welcome 😉 it’s a Remington hairdryer. You can see and hear more about it in this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/h6W5c2isjcmolbM

[@lindadozier8055]

I get the impression that you are standing while painting. Is this true?

[@randihart5731]

Yes 👍 I always stand, gives me a much better “view”. Think most people sit down but that doesn’t really work for me. You know, you are the first person to ask me that….

[@doreenfong6264]

I have been using Grafix Plastic and the pinata brass doesn't look beautiful like yours. Will Nara paper help me get the metallic effect like yours? I love it but have tried many techniques and nothing works to get the brass to look artistic. Thank you for any help!!!

[@randihart5731]

It could be the brass that’s the problem- there has apparently been a bad batch. I’ve heard from many who can’t get to look the way it’s supposed to - it just sinks to the bottom and blends in. And it’s always the big bottles. Are you using one of the big bottles? (Pretty sure it’s not the paper)

[@doreenfong6264]

@@randihart5731 Many Thanks for your suggestion! I just bought a new small bottle and it works much better! It's unfortuante that I wasted money on the large bottle from Amazon! I did read one other review which mentioned the same problem. After 2 years of working with the defective ink I'm happy to create nicer art with the new Pinata Brass. I still need to work on getting the more prominent streaks like yours. Mine are finer lines ... maybe I need to use more brass and try the 99% alcohol. I've been using 91%. Thank you again!!!

[@randihart5731]

So glad it’s working better for you 👍 and yes, maybe you just need to add bit more brass

[@heartlandmooninspired]

Randi, this is gorgeous as always! Can you tell me about Copic inks? Are they pens or come in a bottle?

[@randihart5731]

Thank you very much 🤗 both really - usually you use ink from a bottle but you can also use copic markers. I’ll make a video soon showing the markers

[@heartlandmooninspired]

@@randihart5731 Where do you find the bottles of Copic ink? I've only found the markers. How do the markers compare to other markers you can buy? I love watching you create! ♥♥♥

[@randihart5731]

@@heartlandmooninspired i think the Copic markers are pretty good 👍 I buy Copic in Denmark.... don’t know where you are in the world but try searching online for “ Copic various ink refill”, you should be able to find them

[@heartlandmooninspired]

@@randihart5731 , I'm in the USA. I didn't know if the refills were what you used, thank you for clarifying that for me!

@@heartlandmooninspired you’re welcome. I was confused in the beginning too because it was called refill - but that’s the one you need 😃
