Alcoholic inks are fascinating as each piece is unique.
The inks interact in different ways so impossible to repeat. Using the same colours is no guarantee the results will be similar, it all depends on how wet the surface is, how much ink is applied and how quickly you work on it.
I tend to cover an A4 sheet using various techniques, wispy, cloudy etc, then cut into small squares. At that point I decide what the finished piece is going to be, landscape, flowers etc. working with waterproof pens, acrylic ink, mica powders and 3d effects. ...... Sheila
