Alcohol ink masterclass: paint your own cherry blossom blooms

Come slow down, connect, and make something beautiful — just for you.

Why alcohol ink? Most art asks you to control the outcome. Alcohol ink doesn't. It flows where it wants, blooms on its own, surprises you every time. When you stop trying to control the canvas, your nervous system gets the message: you can let go here. This is art as regulation, not performance.

Your instructor I'm Sia - artist, and your guide for the day. I work with alcohol ink because of what it does to you, not just what it makes. This class is built around that belief.

What we're making Loose, organic blooms inspired by cherry blossoms. Every piece will be completely unique — because the ink makes decisions you didn't plan, and that's where the magic is.

How the class goes We start with brunch — fresh fruit, drinks, and snacks. Settle in. Meet the people next to you. Arrive at the canvas feeling easy and open. No rushing. No pressure.

Then we paint. I'll walk you through every step — how to blow petals with the rubber blower, how to move the background with a hairdryer, how to let the ink do its thing. You'll start on a practice sheet, then move into your 14×11" final piece. Structure, but also freedom. Your painting, your flow.

What you leave with A finished painting — and the feeling of having actually let go.

No experience needed. All skill levels welcome.
