Alcohol Ink Paintings

“What I love about alcohol ink is that its more than just a paint medium - Beautiful things happen on the surface, the colors are floating and mixing in a translucent and shiny way and produce great luminosity, it s magicial.”

Alcohol inks and wax are much more than painting medium: fascinating entities are created, colors float and blend in translucent and shiny ways, unfolding their luminosity; it's magical. Working with inks and natural materials is a mental state, a full immersion in movement of air, fluids and fire. The work is done with natural materials such as wax, dammar, shellac, herbs and minerals. Alcohol inks, encaustic, oil painting and other techniques such as burning shellac with an torche testify to this creative phase.

To paint with alcohol inks is a mental state of being fully immersed and focussed on the colors and the motion of air and liquids.

To paint with fluids is a great possibility to bring your mind in a flow state.
