    9×10.5 alcohol inks on freezer paper done today of an assortment of leftover geraniums I have in a southern window, a bright cheerful floral.
    C&C welcome :cool:

        Really cool effects with those inks Kay, I really like these works of yours.

        Is the ink lightfast and what surface works best?

        Beautiful – and so much prettier than my bedraggled-almost-dead ones!

        Cheers, Maureen

        Thanks Shane and Maureen!

        Inks are lightfast and will work on a multitude of surfaces. I like using the following:

        Yupo synthetic paper
        Deli or freezer paper by Reynolds
        Glossy photo paper
        Canvas paper sheets from a pad
        Aluminum foil
        Glass
        Foamcore
        Wax paper
        Shiny or slick surface paper
        Watercolor paper that has gesso applied

        Thanks Lucy.
        I also put inks on white glazed tiles you can find at building supply stores.
