Description:
'Waves of blue and white
Are now flowing through my mind
Ethereal seas!'
-Dominic Windram
This abstract alcohol ink painting was inspired by the ocean, and its ethereal yet wild nature. Golden light bounces of the waves in ethereal motion. Delicate flowers move with them. The texture in the waves adds interest.

Materials:
This painting was painted using alcohol inks and acrylics on Nara paper. Nara paper is a special synthetic paper, developed specifically for art. It is non porous, making it very easy for the inks to flow freely. It doesn't absorb fluids, therefor it doesn't buckle. It is very thick, and hard to rip. Texture paste was also added to create depth.
Alcohol inks are highly pigmented, alcohol based inks. They can be used like other media like oils, acrylics and watercolors. By layering the inks, and by using different techniques, the artist can create a feeling of depth and flow. The thing that is different about these inks is how unpredictable they are, and to what extend one can control them. Guiding the inks takes a certain level of skill, but also the ability to accept their unruliness. I think that’s why I love them so much!
It is finished with several layers of UV protection and varnish to help prevent fading.
