How I primed my canvas for alcohol ink

- Hello and welcome! I am a believer that you should use what you have and that's exactly what I did for this painting. I purchased these canvas boards at Dollar Tree ($1.25 each) and thought to prime them with Kilz2 like I usually do, only to find I was out of it. I searched through the multiple cans of paint in my basement and found the semi-gloss interior paint I used on the trim in my home. I imagined it would work well, but wasn't 100% sure. Well, it worked beautifully!!!!
I hope you enjoy this video, find it helpful and give it a try. Be sure to share it with me on our Facebook group "Vivo Vintage Designs Tutorials." I'd love to see how you do.

Now how would u display canvas? Frame? I have no idea. I bought a bunch of the same canvases because i saw this video, havent painted on them yet, i will b soon as i practice flowers some more, learned from u, ur one of
Hi josette. There are frames that are deeper than regular frames that can be used...almost like a shadow box frame. It can also be mounted on sealed and finished or painted wood, cut larger than the canvas to create a border. Also, there are "tray frames" where the canvas can be dropped in...I'm not exactly sure what they are called. Hope this information helps. Thank you so much for watching.
@@VivoVintageDesigns ok thank u
So lovely 😍
😁
Gorgeous as always!
So sweet. Thsnk you 😊
❤️ love
@@yvonneattard7415 😊
I’ve even primed with spray paint when super impatient!
Never thought of that!
Now how would u display ur canvas piece, came out beautiful by the way. Im practicing this technique, its very fun!
Thsnk you. I would try to frame it or mount in on wood.
This turned out so pretty. I love how just roll with it and let things happen not getting hung up on trying to be precise and letting things happen. Then adjusting as you go along. It’s much more fun that way. When you mix the ink into the smaller bottles what is your ratio of alcohol to ink?
Thank you 😁. I don't ever measure. If it's too light, I add more ink and too dark, more alcohol. You kind of have to play with it until you find a mix that works for you.
@@VivoVintageDesigns Thanks so much. I am always happy to play with the inks and enjoy the journey.
Very pretty! How would you finish this canvas? What would you seal it with? And would you frame it or what would you do with it? Thanks!!
Thank you Leslie. I would seal it as I would any AI painting...2-3 coats of Kamar Varnish and then the same with Kamar UV Protection. It can be framed since the canvas is not thick, providing you are able to find a shadow box type of frame or it can be mounted on wood which can be stained and cut to the proper size.
@@VivoVintageDesigns thank you! I did see your video after I sent the message about sealing artwork!!
I only have ge so would that work?? I bought tons of those canvases!!
I've only used gesso on canvas for acrylic. I don't know how it would work for ai. Let me know if you try it.
To finish canvas , do u spray them with finish like u would with paper? Kanar varnish then UV spray then gloss? Thats how i finish my photo paper paintings
Yes. You should always vanish and uv protect regardless of what you use the inks on.
@@VivoVintageDesigns thank u, again!
