Do you know that it’s possible to use acrylic inks to paint watercolor-like paintings?
Why would we do that? Well, acrylics are super vibrant, lightfast, and incredibly versatile. They’re great companions in the studio, perfect for adding rich, lasting color to your artwork. I always reach for them when I want to explore expressive florals, and I’m so excited to share these techniques with you in my new online class.

I’m so happy to introduce the third class in my Painting Flowers series:
Painting Flowers No.3: Masking Fluid & Acrylic Inks for Watercolor Style, now available online!

This class is very close to my heart, as it brings together all the playful, expressive techniques I love using in the studio. You’ll learn how to paint vibrant, layered florals using acrylic inks, masking fluid, and watercolor-style washes, a combination that’s become a signature in my work as CreativeIngrid.

Learn how to prepare your palette using acrylic inks to achieve watercolor-like effects, and explore creative layering techniques with inks and masking fluid, no drawing needed. Ingrid guides you through a set of structured exercises, including Four Mini Projects to help you experiment with ink behavior and layering techniques.

 

Whether you're new to acrylic inks or looking to expand your mixed media practice, this class offers a relaxed, step-by-step structure. We’ll start with four mini projects to get familiar with materials, then dive into two beautiful crocus flower paintings, a "day" and "night" version to explore mood and light.

We’ll wrap up with a bold, abstract floral piece that brings together everything you’ve learned.

As a little bonus, I’ve included Colorful Waves, a calming, non-instructional video filmed in my London studio. It’s a quiet, meditative moment to simply enjoy the process of painting.

This class is perfect if you're looking to:

  • Experiment with layering techniques using acrylic inks

  • Learn how to use masking fluid to preserve light

  • Create depth and texture through vibrant washes

  • Paint expressive, floral-inspired art in your own voice
