Susan King

Ontario, Canada-based artist Susan King works with watercolor, acrylic, pastel, and alcohol ink.  Her signature style features layered floral compositions, where alcohol ink blooms into soft, organic petals.

In this tutorial, Susan walks us through her process, using simple tools and techniques to build layers of alcohol ink into a beautiful floral bloom on a round canvas. She also shares how she enhances her work with pen details, and finishes each piece with a glossy resin coat for a smooth, glass-like surface.
