Explore alcohol inks using isopropyl alcohol, blender, and air to create designs on yupo paper and ceramics. Demonstrations will help students understand and learn the basics of handling alcohol inks. It’s a very forgiving medium, so it can be easy to “erase” mistakes. It can also be a bit mind-blowing as the alcohol ink expands and can take over other colors. We’ll explore different techniques and materials to create unique and colorful designs
