Abstract Magic with Alcohol Inks

Abstract Magic with Alcohol Inks

Saturday, January 24, 2026

No brushes, no rules! Unleash your inner artist and let the colours flow! My alcohol ink classes are all about playful experimentation, bold splashes of colours, and creating one-of-a-kind abstract masterpieces. Whether you're a total beginner or a seasoned creative, you'll love watching the inks dance, blend, and transform into art that's uniquely yours.

It's less about perfection and more about the joy of discovery - so come ready to explore, relax, and have some colourful fun!

Your abstract masterpiece will be created on 11x14" yupo paper, perfect for framing and hanging up in your home! You'll also receive a smaller size to practice on before starting your 11x14 piece. And don't worry, if you "mess up" (psst - there's no such thing as messing up) it is a very forgiving medium! But I will help guide you every step of the way to achieve your desired outcome!
