Alcohol Inks:

( I love Brea Reese and Art-c alcohol inks I just couldn’t link them from amazon )

Amazing starter pack
ranger has a great line of inks
These are 2 of my favorite packs. They have way more to choose from as well
Bulk Buy
Metallics can really bring a piece together! experiment with them all with this set.
White is great for making your colors a bit more opaque
This gold is AMAZING
Copic is another great option.

Blending Solutions:

Helps blend your colors 
Alcohol is a nesscity. 

To move the ink:

creates a powerful wind 
creates really awesome patterns
I find the most control while using straws
another great way to move the inks
air compressor can also be used

Surfaces to paint on:

Yupo is an amazing surface to work on.
i can be completely wiped clean with alcohol if you mess up.
Multi pack to try different types
This is a roll of yupo paper you can cut to whatever size you’d like. This is how you get large yupo paper.
you can also use canvas
ceramic tiles are my favorite to practice on

Other tools:

create patterns in the ink and move it around.
I personally love using these a number of ways in my practice
prescisely apply ink 
Another great item to experiment with (I like these for card making)
I like to drip my alcohol on to ink with these
create a mist with these by mixing alcohol and inks together in.
apply this to areas you don’t want ink and you can then peel it off when your done
These chemicals are not good to breath in so take care of yourself and get a respirator!

Thanks for stopping by my blog!

I hope you found this supply list helpful! If you have any questions, Don’t hesitate to ask. I hope you Enjoy your journey with alcohol inks!

XOXO, Taylor
