Alcohol Ink Starry Night Sky Tutorial

So I found these super cute new card stock paper from Ranger Ink at the store the other day and wanted to show off their sparkly qualities with some twinkling stars! This was a fun video to do, and I really love this night sky with the silhouette. I'm going to have to make some more of these! What do you guys think? What would you like to see me do next? :)
Materials used: Artists Loft Titanium White Acrylic, Ranger Ink Pitch Black, Indigo, Denim, Sailboat Blue, Wild Plum, Valencia, Dandelion, and seal spray with Krylon Kamar Varnish and then Kyrlon UV-Resistant Clear coating.The card stock I used was from Ranger, 5" x 7" silver sparkle Alcohol ink Cardstock.

Thank you for this tutorial. You really inspired me to dabble in alcohol ink painting. I’ve never done this.

Hi Teresa, I am a beginner at using inks. I am addicted to watching your videos above everyone else's because you take the time to show the whole process of making a beautiful piece of artwork. Please don't change how you do your videos if people don't have time to watch a true artist who is trying to share there skills on how the whole process goes and how to get enjoyment out of it and not upset then they are hurting themselves and shouldn't be telling you to speed it up. Please keep your videos just the way they are. You are an amazing artist and teacher 🤗🤗🤗

I love this starry night scene. It's beautiful ! You break it down so it looks like its possible to do. You and Myriam (Myriam's Nature) both employ techniques that don't use a bunch of ink and aren't all messy. I really like how both of you work with alcohol inks. Thank you Teresa.

Thanks so much 🎨🖌

I am learning so much from you! I love the alcohol inks but was getting a little frustrated until I found your channel. You are a great teacher and I love your results. Fabulous! I have a little more hope that I can create something beautiful. Thank you so much. During these stay at home days you bring me a sense of happiness. Blessings.

Just lovely!

[@TeresaKovalak]

Thank you!

[@cplumlee8466]

Very nice! I like your more “controlled” way of painting using less alcohol. What would you suggest using for sealing your work?

[@ginettegingras7081]

Very, very nice!

[@judithlund4346]

Beautiful...... thanks for sharing...🥰🥰

[@jennifergarcia1317]

Unfortunately I cant see stars in Vegas, the lights are too bright all overNevada. The glow is like a hum over the state. But when I’m home in Hawaii I sit on the beach while the sun goes down with my feet in the sand and thank the god and goddess for this magical picture. That is magic...besides your painting. I call it Kovalak Therapy.

[@TeresaKovalak]

I can see it in my head the waves and the stars, sounds like my kind of Painting.🌌 🌊 🖌🎨 Thanks so much for all your kind words have a great weekend.🏝🌵🌤

Love your painting! I was amazed to see how well the mountains turned out! One thing I think may have been a little overkill is the stars. You're the artist, not me, but would there be that many stars around the rising moon? Seems the light of the moon would prevent that. I really liked the stars as they were once you did the acrylic flick. Thanks for sharing your talent... I learned some new things!

[@TheArtAcademy1]

So beautifully done New friend

[@TeresaKovalak]

Thank you very much!

[@rebekkabirgirsdottir2137]

Very pretty. Would it be possible to use masking fluid for the stars and the moon?

[@tcfmarch17]

I love this ...Thank you.

[@TeresaKovalak]

Thanks so much I'm so glad to enjoyed the to tutorial, and hope you enjoy painting to.🖌🎨

[@usharajesh1781]

Beautiful. Is it easier with brushes compared to pouring and drying the inks.

[@TeresaKovalak]

Thank you and yes it is and you have more control over what you make!

[@madusonkeeper]

I would like to see alcohol sprayed on paper first then alcohol ink added and sprayed to see how they will blend

[@rosiekaplan1733]

I like your videos but I mostly speed the videos I watch...time! But can't with yours. So I skip along and then miss bits. Xx

[@TeresaKovalak]

Oh sorry to hear that, maybe I will make a fast video in the future :)

[@rosiekaplan1733]

@@TeresaKovalak I'm sure they is just a setting you can do when you load them! I saw this one fast on insta! 🤗🤗🤗
