Alcohol Ink Beauties

I’ve been seeing a lot of nice work lately created using  alcohol ink techniques so this week, I thought we’d spend time with a lot of pretty color and some interesting ideas to push your techniques and use of those little bottles.

Today”s piece is about going overboard for the sake of  color impact. One of the huge draws to alcohol ink is the color of course. And in the case of  this necklace by California’s Daniel Carniglia, it’s quite the inundation of brilliant and saturated hues. This would definitely draw some attention.

According to the Etsy description, Daniel used “a wide range of Alcohol inks on Premo clay to get these colors and then the final embellishing was metallic rub by Viva decor.” Although the colors are quite vibrant by themselves, the addition of the metallic shine gives a brighter overall impression.

Daniel uses this technique with much of the work he has in his Etsy shop right now with more juicy color to take in on his website which would make for a great little visual pick me up this Monday.
