Always wonderful💥💥
Thanks! Looking forward to having fun with it.
Julie! We love you!!! My husband and I have been watching you for a very long time. Love you and your style!! Thanks for sharing all that you do!
LOVE YA, JULIE
I love the tips from Julie! ❤
You make me smile.
Julie you are Awesome
I’m going. I’m going immediately to do this. Now - where’s my stuff? 🎉 🎉 😊❤
I am a silk painter and we use alcohol, sizing and vodka mix to create some really cool textures on the silk. We use silk dyes in the CMYK color "palette".
I've been a watercolorist for almost 25 years and painting on silk is almost exactly like watercolor! In fact, being a watercolorist has made me a better silk painter and vice versa!
Very interesting, Julie!
And you crack me up.
Thanks for the giggles.
Going❤
Thank you
thank you for info that i needed ,,,,u such a lovely lady
This would be amazing for water and beach components in a painting, and maybe even texture in a sky, especially with a loaded brush, wet on dry.
*wanders off to try this technique*
Thanks Julie.
Julie, you are so cute! Thank you for bringing back to mind this old fave!
To my knowledge the English watercolor artists in the 18th century used Gin to achieve effects. Maybe two effects: texture in the watercolor and a nice buzz. 😀 Of course the gin did not have the strength of rubbing alcohol, but you said, the strength doesn't really matter that much.
Thank you. Haven't seen one of your videos in ages. No notifications from CZcams.
It reminds me of what salt does on damp watercolor. Thanks so much.
I love the tumbler sitting next to her! I want one!
Great tip, would loved to see it when all dry later on..I bet this would be great for backgrounds too. You could also apply it in spots with a paintbrush or a qtip etc..play around, with 2 cents of alcohol!..love your attitude!
Love Julie’s art tips! Especially watercolor
Love ir, goin to try it
Great tip! This is better than a tip - its a major way of using water colors!
Can’t wait to try this!! Thanks!!🌸
Great tip
Great! I’ll surely try this👍🏻
Thanks for sharing this! I love your presentation style and your clear instructions.
Love your tips! Thank you Julie!
That looks so cool, thank you for sharing 💕
I love that bluestone color!! ❤❤❤❤❤ thank you love your classes😊
Super cool post! I’m getting my supplies out now! Thanks!
I have never used watercolors before, but you make it look fun and intriguing to me. I'm going to have to watch a lot of your videos and see if I can start to watercolor and do something nice. Thank you for sharing!
Don't wait, do it now. I am relatively new to watercolor, about a year into it. I am 66 and really wish I had started sooner. This channel and a few others in you tube offer free tutorials. It seriously has changed my life. Good luck to you! Good paper is key!
You are a hoot! You make my day. Thanks for the tip.
Started playing with alcohol with my watercolors a few days ago. Your illustration is just what I needed. I was adding it to very WET pigment/water, and it sort of dissolved into the water! Thx MUCH!!
Julie is great at art tips! Time management, not so much LOL. But really interesting 4 1/2 minute art tip!
Thank you for this great idea💡👍 I don't have to buy many bottles of expensive alcohol ink to get an interesting background effect
Gosh, love it for holiday cards!
BTW, YT hasn't been showing me your vids in my feed even tho I am subscribed. This one came up today-first one in months. (Ok, I've been crazy busy too, but they really haven't)
💙💙💙
Hey JC… I know. We have been making some improvements to our video content. The changes are taking longer than we thought to get integrated into the workflow. We will be back to a more regular schedule soon! Thanks for your patience and for watching! 😉 Julie
Baby Oil does interesting effects too 🙂
Will try this soon. You give me me courage
Can you talk about watercolor gel? What is it and how to use?
Hey Judy… we will put that on the list! Thanks 😊 Julie
Julie, what happens when you paint over that application? I enjoy your tips!
Good question! I wonder if it being alcohol and that evaporates that it wouldn't move your paint around or cause blooming as it would be dry and evaporated. But if you tried to paint on it while still wet..perhaps something interesting..hmm now I want to try and find
out! lol
I'd have fun experimenting and find out 🙂
You will cancel the effect painting over it when wet. You can layer over this once it is completely dry. It’s beautiful… give it a try. Thanks for your questions! 😊 Julie
The Melissa McCarthy of Painting
This was fantastic! Thanks. Will give it a try. Today, as a test. Would the alcohol influence the lightfastness of the paint?
No… lightfastness is solely determined by the pigment characteristics. Alcohol will play no part. Thanks for your question! ☺️ Julie
weird, I was just thinking I wonder what would happen if I experimented with alcohol, I wonder if it would work with brush techniques or maybe spraying on cling wrap ( seran wrap for American's) then applying to the watercolour. funny how I was thinking this ,then I turned on my phone and this appeared as the first suggestion on my CZcams feed, maybe they can read minds now, ha ha.
hey there I was wondering, do you know how it will affect the paper, does it deteroate at all
Hey Ronda… no… it would be fine. Thanks for your question… 😊 Julie
Have you ever tried alcohol with acrylics? Just wondering.
Yes! Next video that is on the schedule is about that very subject! Stay tuned! Thanks for your question… 😊 Julie
wouldn't plain water in a spray bottle do the same thing though ?
It does create a look that can be similar, but this can be much more dramatic. Thanks for your questions and for watching! 😊 Julie
Is there a possibility that the alcohol could be inhaled while spraying? Is that safe?
Hey ADK… it evaporates very quickly. I would be surprised if there would be enough to do anything to someone. Thanks for your question… 😊 Julie
I am drunk and want to do an art tutorial that fits my current capability, and this is wat I get?
Do a demo on alcohol Ink please
Hey Jackie… Will do! We will add that to the list… thanks! 😊 Julie
I want to point out that working with 50% alcohol does not work as well as 70% and 90%. Before I knew the strengths of alcohol I used 50% and was disappointed.
Could you please stop saying “you know” so often? It really puts off artists with OCD and ADHD !
