WORKSHOPS
Do you have a group of friends who would enjoy a morning of creativity and chat. Or would you be interested in a more formal structured course to gain new skills in a particular area. Have a look at the type of workshop I could offer and contact me. I can create a bespoke workshop that will suit your needs.
Fluid Art with Alcohol Ink
A beginner-friendly workshop where you will learn the basics of alcohol ink art. I will guide you through the process of creating stunning pieces of abstract art using alcohol ink.
Alcohol ink is a vibrant, fast drying, dye-based ink. It works on a variety of surfaces but works particularly well on synthetic papers. Alcohol ink is ideal for creating abstract images, as the drying of the ink can be controlled with heat and the delicate blowing of air across the surface.
Working with alcohol ink is a therapeutic and relaxing experience that allows you to express your creativity. The nature of this medium lends itself to abstract work but with a bit of patience and practice it can be controlled to an extent, allowing you to create expressive illustrations.
Fees include all equipment and refreshments
