[@moogie3111]

Haha, a woman after my own heart, look at your hands! I always go to work looking like I've somehow bruised my entire hand. Love the painting.

[@JaneMonteith]

Moogie Omg they are always like this. lol. Definitely won’t have a career as a hand model. 🙈😂

[@SpanishRose315]

I love this technique, thanks for sharing

[@JaneMonteith]

iCrafto 😊😊

[@kristiehenderson6526]

Have you ever tried this technique using a canvas or board that has been treated with the Kilz to make it less porous? Thanks for the video, super helpful!

[@skittles7482]

You are just awesome and creative

[@terriwells6229]

I love it!! Thanks for sharing. Having so much fun with my inks!!

[@longarmsupplies]

Neat design. Love your creativity

[@JaneMonteith]

Veta B Thank you 😊💕

[@JanaMorrelli]

This contact paper idea is super smart! My husband is dying for me to make him a Texas Longhob AI piece but I needed some control. This will be perfect to make an outline!

[@JaneMonteith]

Jana Morrelli lol. Awesome. I'd love to see it when you've finished it!

[@JanaMorrelli]

Jane Monteith I'll share! It's a Longhorn by the way, not a Longhob. Lol.

[@JaneMonteith]

Jana Morrelli lol. I figured as much. 😝

[@andreaharutunian3316]

Fabulous!!!

[@JaneMonteith]

Andrea Harutunian Glad you enjoyed it 😊

[@sivodesilva9866]

[@JaneMonteith]

superparanormal SUPERFLY sounds like a cool project. You have to send me a pic when it’s done!!!! Hello, Amsterdam 🙏🏼😊

[@ryanfleming55]

Amazing stuff!!

[@Alchemy_Art_Designs]

THANKYOU so much for this! I've started practicing using masking fluid with alcohol ink but I think this will work much better for my tribal style abstracts.. I'd actually not heard of contact paper before! Lol 🙄😆 will order some on Amazon.. Really enjoying g your instructional videos Jane 👍

[@JaneMonteith]

HybridWorld Art lol. That's awesome! Thanks so much 🙏🏼

[@judithf9297]

Windy Barham You can just as well use isopropyl alcohol,you don’t need the extender or cleaner at all, the alcohol does the same thing and it’s much more affordable. This should of been included in the video. Just make sure it’s at least 91% alcohol, there is also 99%.

[@MariaRegan-rg9ib]

I made my own with 91% alcohol and dried up markers.

[@sydneykamin2819]

Hi Jane. You're a great teacher! Question: How are you caring for your brushes? Are you just cleaning them in the clean up solution afterwards or using something else? Thank you in advance.

[@JaneMonteith]

Sydney Kamin Aww, Thank you 🙏🏼😊. I generally use clean up solution or straight alcohol in a bowl to clean them. After that I use either Speedball pink soap or dish soap in water and foam it right up. Finish by drying off with paper towel. 👍🏼👌🏼

[@windybarham4067]

Hi Jane!! I just found your videos today and I’ve already watched so many. I LOVE your work and I’m thrilled to have access to your tutorials. I’ve never done AI but had planned to start soon. My question is how often do you have to purchase the inks, extender, and clean up solution? I realize a little can go a long way; however, while I may be wrong, it seems like a lot could be used when layering/doing backgrounds, etc. Thank you so very much for sharing your talent, knowledge, experience, and inspiration with us and I appreciate your assistance!!

[@lauramagin2572]

Another GREAT idea Jane! I discovered AI recently for one of my polymer clay projects. Now i want to put AI on EVERYTHING! I am so glad I found you on youtube...I am learning A LOT! I haven't used resin yet but I will be attempting that soon. I was wondering if I need to seal paintings on yupo paper that will be framed? I have put AI on ceramic tea cups for a candle project. I have to order some Kamar and UV Protectant as i can't find Kamar in any of the craft stores. I used some other spray recommended by a non AI expert and of course the AI just ran. Fortunately, the ceramic dish still looks pretty darn cool! I am definitely stocking up on Kamar! Thank you for ALL that you teach and share with us AI addicts! Is your book out yet?

[@amylougheed5845]

I have watched 3 of your videos and they are very informative. Beautiful results! I am definitely inspired to give this a try. My concern however, is the throw away this and throw away that. Being Canadian, recycling is very important. Also, is there any special clean up precautions necessary when you're finished with the resin? I can't imagine it being ok to just flush it into the water system. . . Thank you for the videos. I really enjoyed them ☺

[@JaneMonteith]

Amy Lougheed awesome thanks for watching. I hardly throw much away. I keep a lot of my ‘afters’. Yes should always be careful with any products you use. Please read safety/use on all products. Some people are also allergic to inks and resin so mask and gloves should be worn. 👍🏼😊 clean up resin - wipe out your plastic container with paper towel. Let dry and then peel away resin film later in order to reuse. I don’t throw resin down the drain. Nobody should.

[@amylougheed5845]

Jane Monteith Great news! I appreciate the reply ☺ With that info, I'm reassured to try this! Now I just need another job to purchase even more art supplies lol ( can you ever have too much art stuff??) Hmmm and a bigger apartment 😂 Thanks Jane!

[@JaneMonteith]

Amy Lougheed lol. I hear you! 😆

[@aimeedacosta6762]

Would painters tape work for alcohol ink? To create the negative space

[@barbarawightman2310]

Hi from lovely Northern Cali. I would like to know if your clean up solution is similar to, or the same as, isopropyl alcohol. I'm trying to save some $$ here. I just found your vids today and am thoroughly enjoying them. Thank you.

[@JaneMonteith]

Barbara Wightman Hi Barbara. Thanks for watching! Funny you should ask. My last video I talked about using 99% isopropyl alcohol. I had run out of clean up so had to substitute. It does work the same however the clean up solution has zero odour and you don't have to worry about ventilation. I prefer using clean up by I totally understand if you're trying to save $$ 😊

[@leiszaraddatz9539]

You should check out myriams channel, brand new surface for alcohol inks that is way better than yupo.

[@grendelum]

@4:08 The word you're looking for is *_footery_* to describe an action or material that is difficult...

[@JaneMonteith]

orion khan lol. Awesome. Thanks. Every once in a while a have a brain cramp. 😂

[@rebeccachianese5191]

I see that you did use Yupo thank you.

[@hunterandcollector]

Hi Jane, love this look, do you have to use contact paper or can you use tape? I just watched your video in which you try out the seven types of tape and thought i might give that a go

[@JaneMonteith]

Michelle Fraser you could use tape but if it’s connected in pieces then you will get bleed under the joins.

[@dpt333]

Jane I don’t see the link to learn how to glue the yupo paper on to the wood panel. Can you reply this comment and tell me the link please. i really like it that’s awesome.

[@anuradhabhalla5483]

Hi. Do u have to use an extender. When u put alchohal inkcan I do this on canvas. .. thanks. Can I know.

[@hunterandcollector]

Ah yes of course, thanks for replying

[@shashiprasad4446]

😍😍😍

[@rebeccachianese5191]

What paper did you use? Yupo?

[@spinningandwinningslotswit5241]

Run.....

[@fionareddoch326]

Jane what was the round thin that you used at the bottom?

[@JaneMonteith]

Fiona Reddoch lol I was wondering if anyone would ask that. It was a coffee lid. 😝

[@fionareddoch326]

thank you i see you have added it in a tutorial now!

[@JaneMonteith]

Fiona Reddoch you bet! 😊

[@kimboj100]

Can I do a paint pour on top rather than inks?

[@JaneMonteith]

kimboj100 hmmm not sure. Might be a bit tricky

[@KP-nx8lo]

It’s pronounced Pin-Yata it’s that thing kids beat to death at birthday parties lol 😆

[@Akprattphotography]

How do you use the bleed proof white? Do you show that in any videos?

[@JaneMonteith]

Imagine Life Visual Artistry | Certified Professional Photographer it’s in the video 12:01 mark

[@Akprattphotography]

Jane Monteith it skips and you don't actually show how to use it

[@JaneMonteith]

Imagine Life Visual Artistry | Certified Professional Photographer oh sorry I though I did. Not much to it really. You just dip a small brush in and touch up areas that need tending to.

[@marysueprice1194]

can one use canvas instead of yupo?

[@JaneMonteith]

MarySue price with inks? Yes as long as your canvas is prepped properly.

[@marysueprice1194]

Is Gesso enough? also I am assuming that one can use acrylics with alcohol ink on the same piece if they do not come in contact?

[@yvesdedieuleveult4320]

Que voulez-vous que je dise, je suis française et ne comprends pas l’anglais !!!!!

[@JaneMonteith]

Yves de Dieuleveult Je ne parle pas francais :-(

[@RD9_Designs]

*PIN-YAH-TAH... sorry. Very cool technique!

[@shannonochoa2397]

Haha - you're so funny. The inks are pronounced PIN-YA-TA like the Mexican party game filled with candy.

[@JaneMonteith]

Shannon Ochoa 😆😂

[@43Rhein10]

shame! I hear your voice but see a black screen only ...

[@JaneMonteith]

Alexandra Wimmer so strange. Is it just this particular video? .

[@corriedingwall8367]

Started watching your videos from the start theay heve been really helpful but iv notesd in the last few videos you have staring using the frase "go ahead" ALOT. It's such an anoying youtuber thing to say. Keep the amazing videos coming just please don't morf in to a generic youtuber

[@JaneMonteith]

Corrie Dingwall lol. Thanks the the candid remark. 😂

[@CobraDove1111]

Yes, and your music is WAY TOO LOUD. #ConstructiveCriticism

[@rebeccachianese5191]
