Overview

Have you Experienced Alcohol Inks? Maybe you have seen many images on Instagram and wondered, what is that medium they are using. It blooms, expands, and has a magical effect that no other medium can replicate.

If you are looking for something playful and therapeutic or are feeling stuck in your art and have said to yourself.... I just want to ZEN and relax while painting, then this is the class for you. We will go over a few Ranger Ink colors and create a beautiful flowing fluid art piece that even new artists can do. Take this into as many details as you wish and go with any size. 

Today I want to show you a way to explore Fluid art with Pen and Ink - creating what I like to call a zendoodle. 

This class is for new painters or those of you that get overwhelmed if you have tried alcohol inks but don't like all of those realistic paintings and are looking to explore your abstract side with color. This is a very simple abstract that you can complete quickly and without a lot of frustrations, I'll show you how.

Get your just a few Alcohol Inks out, any colors will do.... and have fun with a quick little ZEN painting.
