Alcohol inks are, an alcohol-based, highly pigmented ink that can be diluted with isopropyl alcohol which allows for the expansion of media over the page. Isopropyl alcohol is used as a thinner and medium for the inks. The alcohol creates a beautiful bloom of the inks when placed inside and allows the inks to attain the delicate fades of color as seen in the painting as well as create beautiful textures and transparent washes. This media dries quickly but reignites whenever alcohol is added making it truly fluid and at times unpredictable. The inks are spread out on the canvas via many techniques such as using one’s breath, canned air, paint brush and swaying the inks into and out of the alcohol. Alcohol Ink Artwork is a skilled medium in which the artist has to trust their instinct as to when to guide the inks and when to let them flow as they will. There are times when a piece can take days to create due to the kinetic energy in the pigments until they settle and declare themselves home.
