Paint Party Friday!

My first how to video.Sealing Alcohol Ink Art with UV Protecant. Pa Everyone in the Alcohol Ink Artists Group on Facebook always wonders how I seal the inks with Liquitex brush on varnish. They have problems with the inks running and have to use a spray first. I don't have that problem. So I thought I'd demonstrate how to do it. I use this on yupo paper, tile, porcelain, dominos any surface.




Remember these important points:
1) make sure the ink is dry.
2) use a soft brush with no residue of hard varnish or alcohol ink or alcohol.
3) use a very thin coat
4) brush one time and that is it
5) let it dry well and then you can do another coat if necessary.
