Alcohol Ink on metal paintings

I create vivid colorful translucent alcohol ink paintings through the application of alcohol ink to aluminum, steel, titanium, copper, and brass sheets. Prior to applying the alcohol ink, texture is added to metal with grinding tools, or a torch is applied to the copper to produce vibrant intricate colors or an "aged" blue green patina is created by chemically treating the copper with salt and ammonia.
