Let your creativity take flight in this vibrant adults-only alcohol ink workshop, perfect for beginners and intermediate makers who love colour, flow, and a little bit of magic.
We’ll begin by exploring the fascinating world of alcohol inks—from the basics of blending and flow to colour theory and controlled chaos. You’ll have time to experiment and get comfortable with the medium on practice pieces before moving on to your final project.
The highlight of the session is your chance to create a stunning, one-of-a-kind artwork on a dragonfly-shaped MDF board. Whether you go bold and iridescent or soft and dreamy, the result will be uniquely yours.
At the end of the session, we’ll seal your finished piece with varnish to lock in the colour and give it a lasting professional finish.
 
What’s included:
2.5–3 hours of creative guidance
All materials provided (inks, gloves, aprons & varnish included)
Hands-on practice time with alcohol inks
One large dragonfly MDF shape to decorate
A completed piece to take home, ready to hang or gift
 
This is a calm, welcoming environment where you can experiment freely, relax into the process, and leave with a beautiful reminder of your creativity.
 
🧪 Safety Note: Please Read
This workshop uses alcohol inks and 99.9% isopropanol alcohol, which emit strong fumes and may not be suitable for everyone. While the room will be well-ventilated, masks are available on request, and gloves are provided to protect your skin and clothing from stains—alcohol inks are beautiful but very permanent!
If you are pregnant or have respiratory sensitivities, we recommend consulting with your healthcare provider before attending. The session is designed to be safe and enjoyable, but your wellbeing is our priority.
