INKED LANDSCAPES (ZOMBIES)

  You'll find my updated ATC Techniques List on a separate page at the top of my page directly under my banner, "ATC Technique List - Current & Previous".

I love any excuse to be able to use my liquid acrylic inks and the combination of acrylic inks and bleach gives wonderful effects. I have created a different effect using salt with fluid acrylic paint and rock salt but the bleach just takes it to the next level. Credit must go to Lydia from Splitcoaststampers for the specific acrylic ink/bleach technique. I must also blame her for my obsessive search for some Zombie stamps. So very glad I found them as they suit this style so well. 
Mainly black was used for this technique but as you can see from Kraken below, coloured acrylic inks will still work. However, you can't beat black for the moodiness that suits the zombie stamps perfectly! The Vegan Zombie background colour is a combination of Carbon Black and Prussian Blue (both Liquitex Acrylic Inks). The addition of gel pens creates easy highlights where needed. The shark fin was made by cutting a small fin shape from craft foam and attaching it to a piece of acetate and used as a stamp. What's the saying about necessity being the mother of invention? 😉
