I made this for a friend and thought you guys might find it interesting. Here's a basic breakdown of how I tackle illustrating a nose. Would you guys like to see more mini tutorials?

Ok, so in my alcohol inks adventures I've received a lot of questions about the paper to use. Nothing beats Yupo, since the inks floats on top of the"paper" and dries beautifully. All other papers will absorb the inks, which can be beautiful too, it all depends on what look you're after. On all these swatches I did the same thing, I dropped a bit of ink and then squirted a bit of clear alcohol to dilute a bit. As you see the results are quite different! Hope this helps! . . . #selandriansart #alcoholink #alcoholinks #artisttutorial #inkdrawing #yupo #yupopaper #strathmore #canson #rainbowart #pentart #inkaholiks

For anyone interested, this is how I begin my handles. I spend about 10-15 minutes pinching, cutting, and smoothing the clay into its final "bone" shape. Setting it up for success as much as possible before the attachment, it is important that the handles (especially the points of attachment) ares as finished as possible before pulling. I hope that this video will be useful to students, as I found watching process videos helpful during my early handle-making days. It's important to make sure the clay is just soft enough to be able to be smoothed and bent with the fingers, but not so sticky and malleable that it is easily mucked up or dented. Using minimal water up until the pulling stage is also key. A damp sponge and some sort of rounded tool to help form the handle into a concave shape are helpful too. Also, resist the urge to form, attach, pull, and refine the handle all in one go, as timing is important and I like to let the handles rest and set up between different stages. I hope this helps! I am happy to make another slower tutorial video or do a live demonstration to clarify anything for curious students. . . #wsuceramics #ceramics #clay #pottery #porcelain #throwing #demo #potterydemo #handles #clayhandle #pullinghandles #tutorial #artisttutorial #arttutorial #handmade #howto #mugs #getahandleonit #craft #craftswoman #art #artist #potter #studioscenes #inprogress #wip (at WSU Ceramics Guild)
