Alcohol Ink Infinity Palette Roses Tutorial (#9)

Описание: No sound! Sorry! Here is a process video on making loose, romantic, Infinity Palette Roses. The fun part of this technique is making your flowers utilizing whatever palette you lay down as a background. I start by simply scribbling my alcohol ink markers on a 6x6” tile. While it looks like a mess, there is actually some strategy, lol. Here I wanted a border of greens and a variety of pinks/purple/orange in the center to build my roses. I take 99% isopropyl alcohol in a sprayer and douse my tile, turning my marker into inks. Magic! I use a blow dryer to move the inks around, repeating this process a gazillion (more or less, lol) times until I see a background palette emerging that makes me happy. You want to make sure that you don’t make muddy colors by blending too much! I have a small needle tip bottle of alcohol that I use to drop alcohol on the area that I want my first rose. My airbrush (Masters Touch TC-20) is set at around 25-30 PSI. I did a closeup of the first rose to show how I’m just kind of encircling my puddle, moving out the liquid in irregular circles as it drys to give the illusion of loose layers of petals. When I get to the center I want a tighter, more defined look to show depth. To do that, I maintain a more consistent circular motion, continuing that until the alcohol is dry. I hold my airbrush very, very, close to the tile...but always on the outside of the puddle that I’m controlling. I hope that makes sense!! After I finish my three main roses I added two smaller, tighter, circles to imitate (kind of) rose buds. If you have any questions, please feel free to add in the comments area!
