Registration for this class opens to MMFS members on November 10, and then to the general public on November 12, 2026. Not a member yet? You can sign up here.

 

Make custom hearts for Valentine’s Day using alcohol ink and doodles. In this class, you will learn to paint with alcohol inks, creating two vibrant artworks. Alcohol ink painting is abstract and playful, giving you the freedom to paint without rules!

 

You will first create a heart using various colors of alcohol ink. Alcohol inks are very forgiving, and your heart will continue to take on its own personality when you add doodles with Posca pens on the top. There will be time to create two 5” x 7” hearts during class. Your instructor will provide ideas and guidance along the way. Come and join the fun!
