[@MellowedSleep]

You’re off to great places, today is your day. Your mountain is waiting, so get on your way. I believe in you❤

[@AskariArt]

Yes! Thank you!

[@barbaracabrera207]

I saw an alcohol ink artist the other day that used an empty Air Brush to blow the ink around. Just used it for the air blowing. It seemed to work great. I immediately thought of you. Thought I'd pass on the idea to you. In case you hadn't seen it used. Thank you for your videos. I love to watch you paint. Austin, TX USA

[@AskariArt]

Thank you Barbara, yea my wife has an airbrush for cake decorating and I thought of borrowing it and trying it. However I'm worried it may intimidate other who are starting because of expense, complexity and they may not start simple. I will make some intermediate videos with airbrush soon

[@yvonnegalan1595]

I simply can't find a fault on this Yupo paper piece. I love ❤️ it!

[@AskariArt]

Thank you. It means alot, humbled. 😊

[@erinmcdonald9020]

Hi Askari! I loved it at about 18:41 And again at 19:40! I love your demos! After working with Acrylic, oil and watercolor for years, I think I have found my favorite medium. I just recently starting working with alcohol ink and I do find it very meditative✨ I’ve learned so much watching your demos. I thank you.

[@AskariArt]

You are too kind, Erin McDonald. Let me know if there are any videos that you'd like to see on this topic.

[@denisehunt1317]

I found your video from 2020 and it probably answers all these questions so thank you so much.

You're very welcome Lees. Thanks for the 💕

[@kathyhenderson2437]

Fantastic video. I have just started experimenting with this art form in the last couple of days. I love your calm nature and how you approach your art. Thank you so much

[@AskariArt]

Thanks for the nice comment 😊

[@kathyhenderson2437]

I really learned a lot by watching you in this video. I’ve been putting tiny little drops of alcohol and I was really amazed at how much you used and how you moved the ink around and around. I can hardly wait to try it again today. Thanks again

[@trishcox1041]

I love the blow dryer with that angled attachment. I looked in your resources section and couldn't find it. Can you give me some more info on it please? ENJOY you videos. I just started using alcohol inks yesterday but I have been watching videos for a while now. Yours are very informative and I appreciate your patience in telling us what you are doing and why.

[@AskariArt]

They must have sold out it seems. I found it again amzn.to/3vI9yTh I am going to buy this one to see how it does. amzn.to/2SDjYpR

[@TheKatcoyote]

Love your content (and, of course your Art)! Thank you for sharing your process, it's incredibly helpful (i'm new to alcohol inks). Please keep your videos coming!

[@AskariArt]

Thank you Kat, I plan on it.

[@jjjoy7887]

I’m a new subscriber. The piece came alive for me at 22:11 - time to play with micro pen…. Thanks so much!

[@AskariArt]

Thanks for subbing! YES I'm so happy you are starting!

[@johannebrun3409]

Your voice is so soothing. I listen to you while making my own pieces 😂 I wish I could show you my piece to get your thoughts

[@AskariArt]

That's so sweet. You can go to Facebook and look up Askari Art critiques and join the group we share work there.

[@scrappyandhappy]

Really enjoyable! You have a really lovely manner, which I appreciate. Liking seeing inks used this way...great combo of creative minds colliding. Thanks for that. S.

[@AskariArt]

Thank you Samara that's so sweet.

[@liesbethvaes9754]

love your style and i love how you take us with you while creating. I understand the proces. comming from encaustic this has similarities ( when i use my hotairgun) have done my first ones with alcohol and loved every minute of it.

[@AskariArt]

Thank you so much. I'm getting into encaustic and bees wax

[@KLee-ci3gt]

The first and only time I worked with alcohol ink,I had no idea what I was doing. I thought that I was really messing up,l desided not to go any further,I desided to do some feathering around what I thought I messed up,I reall blew my mind! It is beautiful😇. When showed people they don't know exactly how to look at,but I do. I can't seem to do a pretty mistake again. 😪

[@KLee-ci3gt]

Opps, From me K-Lee,and my always stand by me, The Unsinkable Molly Brown.🤣 We thankyou for your support Austin,Texas

[@AskariArt]

Keep practicing it will happen again

[@nanasue4481]

Thank you!!! Thank you!!! So helpful, I can’t tell you how much this video has encouraged me to keep trying. I just don’t seem to be able to GET IT, you know? But like I said, thanks, this has been inspiring!! 🙏🙏🙏🤗🇬🇧

[@purnimakoul]

[@AskariArt]

Thank you!!

[@charlireed9555]

Tilt your head to the right Timeline, 26:20 - Potential Dragonfly Lady (If you gave wings.) lol

[@leesmac404]

Time stamp....... I would love to see you make it into a full (no neg space). Just to see how marbled it could be. You’re amazing!

[@AskariArt]

I may have to try that.

[@joychip5994]

Lovely Colours. ,i think you should make a meditation recording. You have a voice that is very relaxing. I am sure that would aid sleep, especially with the background music. I hope you don’t mind me saying .

[@AskariArt]

That sounds like a cool idea. I may have to try that.

[@franhutton342]

Hi I have just stareted experimenting with these alcohol inks and love the effect. I have tried yupo paper but it does tend to buckle on me! I notice that you use a lot of the isopropyl alcohol -does that keep it flat??

[@alexandrafisher2269]

What type of plastic board do you usually use? And where do you get it. I enjoy your videos and work. I am working myself up to move onto large canvases.

[@AskariArt]

so for this painting, I'm using YUPO paper. I usually buy plastic poster board for my practice pieces from Michael's. It acts a little differently as does canvas. www.michaels.com/white-plastic-poster-board-by-creatology/10378146.html

[@alexandrafisher2269]

@@AskariArt thank you!

[@ruthrodriguez8539]

I paint with acrylics but wanted to try inks since I'm retired and live to be creative this is just beautiful and I have to give it a try. One quest though. Must you always use alchohol.

[@AskariArt]

Yea with alcohol inks you can use denatured alcohol, 91% isopropyl, 99% isopropyl, Everclear (drinking kind), or blending solution by Tim Holtz

[@bonniepfeiffer9425]

Beautiful! Do you seal yupo paper or just mat it?

[@marycook5573]

Love your art But where can I purchase the Remington heat dryer.

[@AskariArt]

The one I use isn't available anymore. Revlon makes one it's a travel dryer that has a curler extension

[@dianehoffman3508]

What low-cost respirator can be used for amateur in alcohol ink painting?

[@AskariArt]

I haven't come across one because I believe safety is the one thing you should skimp on. I find cheaper alternatives for everything else except that.

[@dlee806245]

Do you think using Yupo paper is what makes it all come together, I have Pixss paper and it doesn't blow at all

[@AskariArt]

I think Yupo, Nara, plastic poster board is great for this. I've never had experience using PIXSS paper. I sell a sketchbook on my site that is using Yupo paper.

[@doncraig6058]

Practice is expensive and you keep saying don’t worry about it but to get 99% alcohol blow dryer, bottles,ink ,gloves,special paper,and my time to practice something as a craft and not even close to start on canvas yet. I’m getting discouraged can you help me with any advice. I’ve been using a straw. Will a blow dryer make a big difference? Do you use warm air? Thanks.

[@AskariArt]

Never use a straw, your inhaling all the fumes. Safety first. I use plastic post card you can buy it from Michaels in the states. 2 dollars a sheet 18x30. I would use either a rocket air blaster or a blow dryer on cold. Warm will dry it up faster and won't allow you to work. I have other videos doing small demos on plastic poster board.

[@ksister42]

"Plastic paper". Is that like butter paper with the sealant on it, or poly sheets?

[@ksister42]

I meant Butcher Paper.... Sorry!

[@yoothanasasanatiang9225]

WHAT KIND OF PAPER ?

[@denisehunt1317]

My brother in law who buys a lot of art says, you get hardboard and lacquer it first. Is that correct?

[@AskariArt]

+Denise Hunt I typically use canvas for the pieces that I sell. for practice I use plastic posterboard or in this case Yupo. I think some Laquers turn yellow over time. I'd use Kamar Varnish, and uv archival to seal it. I have a video for that as well

[@frank1fm634]

Hi-Nice video.Are there 2 types of alcohol inks?I went to buy some on Amazon and it said for epoxy like making ashtrays and coasters then it said it wasn't for porous surfaces.Then I saw another alcohol ink and I could use that type of ink on porous surfaces.I don't know what to buy.Thanks

[@AskariArt]

I would look up copic or tim holtz inks. Or Pinata. I haven't tried the others yet.

[@marciahodges5908]

askari I have a problem when i put down my green ink - it just makes a round circle with sediment noted in it. Any suggestions?

[@AskariArt]

Are you mixing it very well? What brand?

[@ronnieantik1]

Do you use a breathing mast?

[@AskariArt]

I use a full face respirator most of the time.

[@shannondaily4562]

can you re-use a practice piece of Yupo paper?

[@AskariArt]

You can, but sometimes some ink stain it

[@joycehopkins2601]

How do you hang paintings on poster board or yuppo paper

[@AskariArt]

Joyce I'm not sure I understand your question. I typically don't hang any of my posterboard or yupo paper paintings. I only use them for practice. My wife has framed and matted a few of them just for around the house. Most of my paintings I sell to clients or commissions are done in canvas or Linen
