1. This project is pretty simple. Apply the ink and the isopropyl alcohol to the paper. With the straw blow the ink around to where you want it to go. Keep doing this until you are satisfied with your painting. There is no wrong way to do this. Try different methods to see what you prefer. For example you could add the isopropyl alcohol to the paper before you add the ink or vice versa.

Here's a video of someone creating a alcohol ink painting.

For clean borders or to contain the ink inside a shape, apply masking tape to the paper before you start adding ink.
