Wynn Alcohol Ink Technique

4 Steps To Jaw Dropping Alcohol Ink Art

?  For those looking to NOT feel overwhelmed by alcohol inks, these free classes are for YOU!

This page is devoted to the exciting discoveries & innovations by Victoria Wynn surrounding alcohol inks when combined with top coat/embellishing medium, non toxic “LUXE WaterFX” and new commercial grade liquid glow product, “WaterFX GLOW”!

For this technique you can interchange the LUXE WaterFX products!  (“Clear”, “All Lit Up” & our 3 “WaterFX GLOW” colors!

 

⚠️ I’ve personally innovated these techniques through hours of trial & error. When using them, please give credit by using the term “Wynn Alcohol Ink technique” when you share them. It would be greatly appreciated! -Victoria Wynn

 

—————————————————————

UPDATE: We just launched a new Northern Lights Powder called “Alaskan Sky” (click here) and a liquid glow product called ”Waterfx GLOW”

 

 

 

I’ve found that not only can I use both of these products to create Northern Lights (click here) & realistic oceans, but I’ve been creating stunning opal and labradorite stone effects using this same alcohol ink technique. ( “Alaskan Sky” Powder is a favorite amongst our resin customers!)

 

What do we love about “LUXE WaterFX”?
It has a wet “resin look” without the toxicity!

? For the science minded:

LUXE WaterFX is a water based, non hazardous acrylic polymer emulsion specifically designed to dry quickly, protect wood and canvases and look wet when dry! ?

LUXE WaterFX GLOW is a commercial grade, ultra 10-hour illumination, water-based, liquid glow product developed for wood, canvas, coasters, plastic and glass.

 

The combination of the 2 mediums has been a game changer for customers and a ground breaking new technique brought into the art world!

Alcohol Inks + LUXE WaterFX

 

It’s simple and relaxing with the excitement of mind blowing results!

?‍♀️ What LUXE products do you need for this effect? (Most of you have them!)

1. Opal 2.0 LUXE Powder (click here) or other LUXE Color Shifting Powder.
? Tip: For warm coffee/ caramel palettes I sprinkle “Saturn’s Rings” Powder!

  1. LUXE WaterFX (this technique takes so little product!)

? Optional: LUXE Crushed Mirror (click here), Gemstones, LUXE Kaleidoscope Flakes in “Morning Dew”, Sinatra LUXE Powder, LUXE 3D Bubbles (click here)

 

 

A few simple steps to get you started!

? Grab a dollar store canvas ?

?Pour WaterFX in the middle and tilt a bit – no need to cover the whole canvas. Negative space is much more striking!

 

? Add droplets of alcohol inks to the areas you’ve poured your LUXE WaterFX (not the dry canvas)  (Suggestion: Use blue, turquoise, white and green inks as a winning color combo)

 

 

?Add drops of Piñata gold until you’re so relaxed and happy you start to doze off ? ?

 

?Tilt boldly to get a marbled effect. Tilt slightly (or not at all) to get a crystalline geode effect

 

?Sprinkle a touch of Opal 2.0 LUXE Powder (click here) for that WOW factor. (Other LUXE Color Shifting powders will look equally as glorious)

 

?✍? Sign the corner with a gold pen! And hang or sell! ?

 

 

? TIP: Wood & cradle board work

 incredibly well!

 


? Where to buy products for this project:

✔️Alcohol Inks (Dick Blick’s, Amazon, Michael’s, Jerry’s)

✔️ Small canvas (Dollar Tree)

✔️ For larger projects I recommend using wood or cradle board since the LUXE WaterFX can get heavy  (A level 3 Michael’s canvas works well too!)

✔️ LUXE Opal 2.0 (click here)

✔️ LUXE WaterFX (click here)

THE JOURNEY BEGINS HERE!

To start, I used a dollar tree canvas and practiced making drops with the alcohol inks.
This simple practice was one of the most relaxing things I have ever done!

?Plus the droplets all turned into mini geodes!

? How does it get better than THAT!

 

Slow, steady and relaxing
