with Kim Crawford

Mar

Next session: March 27th, 2025

Painting with alcohol inks is a magical process using isopropyl alcohol (yes, the same alcohol you already have in your medicine cabinet). Alcohol inks are a fluid medium that are hard to control and that is the best part! Once you have learned how to manipulate the inks and the right approach to this medium, you should find it an extremely fun and addictive style of painting! Students should bring their open mind and an adventurous spirit to this class as we explore this fluid medium and techniques. Lab fee: $10 to be paid directly to the instructor at the start of class.
