Painting With Alcohol Ink On Canvas

By David Anderson


Painting is one way to showcase the inner expression and feeling towards a particular subject, such as politics and how it is done wrong has dire consequences or even express emotions about said consequences. There are many ways to paint but few are as special as using Alcohol Ink on Canvas to do so.

For starters, what does ink made from alcohol? The simple answer to that question without getting too technical is describing them as solidly based dyes, which happen to be quick drying and acid-free. This type of substance is suited for different type of substances such as glass, metals non-porous plastics and are perfect for scrapbooking and other similar uses.

Because of the manner in which the ink is made up, it means that it s suitable to work on a number of different types of materials and textures from glass, gloss paper, metals and even fabrics. Basically anything you throw at it and it will stick.

If the second option sounds better than the first that there s some good news. It s possible and doable to make your very own alcoholic ink solution to paint with. All that s needed is a couple of sharpies, rubbing alcohol, a glass jar some scissors, tweezers and something to work on.

It s also not only a great idea but wise a wise one to wear protective gear around your hands. Unless there s a strong prevailing attitude that it will ruin what is being created and your content with paint around your fingernails for the next 2 to 3 days. Not a train smash if you stay at home, different ball game when in a corporate venue on a Monday morning.

Another own related to the work area is keeping the area in which the inks will be based in. Prolonged exposure to the alcohol can mean bad news as it pollutes the air with toxic chemicals which, in the right conditions, mean respiratory problems like asthma and emphysema.

With those concerns in check, time to pull out the penmanship and start drawing away. In pen/pencil first, as this makes it easier to outline what your drawing. When satisfied, the painting can begin, or for a more abstract look, toss out the pen and let the hand guide the paint on where it wants to go. This will give the painting an overall more abstract look compared to the first method.

Using spirits ink for arts and crafts can be fun, and the work produced as a result of it be a sight to behold. But unlike other means of rendering paintings or anything needing a graphic touch. Be it paper, metal or glass, its use is unlike other products and precautions need to be taken in order to avoid inhaling fumes that may cause respiratory problems with prolonged exposure and nails that are hard to clean.
