How To Use Alcohol Ink Perfectly

By Henry Kelly


Some people produce excellent results on canvas using alcohol ink. Others seem to struggle at every stage. This ink is preferred because it does not include the distasteful acid. This helps it to produce some of the best details in painting. The challenge for upcoming and experienced painters is how to use alcohol ink and produce perfect images. Here is a guide by experienced painters on how to produce these magical results.

Buy quality ink to start with. The fact that it is available on the shelves or in a bottle is not an assurance of quality. Consult experienced painters to get guidance on the best brands in the market. You could also buy smaller packets and test whether the results produced are desirable. Reviews will also help you avoid disappointment.

Use the right blending solutions during painting. Painting requires different shades that are achieved through blending. Poor quality blending solutions will spell doom for you. They reduce the quality of your ink and consequently affect its painting results. Manufacturers recommend the best blending elements to use. Follow the instructions when blending to ensure that the results are pleasing.

The quality and performance of your colors will also depend on canvas chosen. Canvases absorb ink which determines the results of your painting work. When quality canvas is used, your ink will also produce better results. There is a professional way of treating canvases before painting. This treatment forms an important part of producing incredible images.

Sketch your work before embarking on drawing. The purpose of a sketch is to guide your painting. It forms part of the crucial planning that enhances the quality of images produced. You will avoid mistakes that cause you to repeat your work. With a sketch, the canvas will also not be damaged. Upon sketching, you will produce an impressive image in a single attempt.

Quality brushes will produce better results. You will need different types and sizes of brushes. Depending on image you need at the end of your painting, the brushes must be appropriate. The strokes of these brushes will be seen in the final work. The brushes should produce impressive results with minimal effort. Choose brushes with bristles that are professional. Further, ensure that they are comfortable to your hands to enable you paint for a prolonged period without fatigue or reducing the quality of image.

Engage an experienced painter when buying and using different types of ink and painting accessories. Through their experience, you will know what to expect from different brands of ink and accessories. You will also learn tricks that can only be mastered through experience. Experienced painters also point at mistakes you should avoid in your painting job. This helps you to produce better quality work faster without waiting for years of experience to learn by your own mistakes.

Do not be in a hurry to produce excellent results with your work. It takes time and a lot of practice to produce good results when painting. You will also know the ink or accessories to choose for different results over time. Therefore, be patient with your painting art and learn from the mistakes you have made to improve on quality of your future work.
