Evening Workshop: Introduction to Alcohol Ink Art

A landscape created with alcohol inks, using greens, reds and oranges. The picture is mounted with a circular frame.

Unfortunately due to illness this event is postponed. A new date will be scheduled as soon as possible and ticketholders will be notified.

Join award-winning artist Nichol Stokes for an introduction to alcohol ink art and create a beautiful, vibrant landscape painting.

Learn some basic techniques including flow, brush work and splattering and create two landscapes, one of which you will choose to mount ready for you to frame at home.

Alcohol ink is a fluid painting technique using pigment suspended in alcohol. By applying different techniques to create shapes and texture, the creative possibilities are almost endless.

Enjoy the process, the happy accidents and most of all relax and go with the flow.

Please note: alcohol inks do stain so please wear appropriate clothing and wear the gloves and apron provided. All other materials are provided.

Because we use 99% proof alcohol to activate the inks the workshop is not recommend for pregnant women or young children.

Nichol Stokes is an alcohol ink artist inspired by the abstract beauty of flowers and the natural landscapes around her Sheffield-based studio.
