Alcohol Ink Class: Use Canvas and Paper

Come and try alcohol ink on Canvas as well as on paper - a beginner workshop!



3 hours Location Richmond Class size 1 to 4 (public classes), 2 to 8   $155 (Afterpay available)

This is your chance to try alcohol ink on different surfaces. You’ll play with gorgeous inks and lustres and create your own unique designs on black Yupo paper, and white Yupo paper and now on 30x30cm canvas! Before you start on you hero canvas, you can play on two smaller canvasses that are 20x20cms each. When you've got your rhythm going, you can start on your 30x30cm canvas. If you want me to purchase an even larger canvas please let me know a week before the class so I can have it ready for you at the studio.
If you want to make more than one 30x30 canvas artwork, please let Jenie know a week before the workshop so she has time to make sure of her supplies! Lots of people want to do 3 at a time, (for a stairwell or as a feature in their living rooms.) Each additional canvas is $28.00 and you can pay here on ClassBento.
Now is the time to take time off and have fun. Learn about alcohol inks and enjoy the colourful alcohol ink workshop!
You get to play on all of these:
white Yupo sheets;
black Yupo paper;
2 small practice canvasses
and 1 x 30.5cm x 30.5cm canvas board stretched on pinewood, we call this your HERO piece!
Of course, you get to use all the inks and tools that I have in my studio!
  • Products used contain denatured alcohol and Isopropyl so if you have been or may be affected by these products previously, you should consider using a filtered mask.
  • This class is NOT suitable for pregnant ladies or people with severe allergies.
  • We will take pictures of you during the workshop for my socials and website etc, please let me know if this doesn't suit you.

  • 5/5 from Susannah Larritt, attended Sep 2025: Fab class learning how about alcohol inks on canvas. All the classes I've done with Jenie have been great. Highly recommend. In this one you try different papers and then smaller sized canvasses before the larger one so you not only have fun but also build confidence in what you're doing.

I am Jenie and I am a glass artist, business owner and teacher based in Richmond, Melbourne. My passion is to focus on handmade small batch glass and alcohol ink events for glass lovers and learners.
I have a passion for teaching and making. I'm a very social person and I love meeting new people, teaching others how to create fabulous pieces of glass art and explore alcohol ink, hosting events and collaborating with other businesses in fun and creative ways.
I hope that I can teach you to make something beautiful. You don't need any expertise. Most of my classes are designed for the absolute beginner. You'll love being here. Its relaxing and fun being in this amazing space.
You can create all sorts of things in my studio, from bespoke handmade glass plates, to giant Mondrian wall clocks, or abstract wall art!
We run workshops for all ages. Come with your family and friends and create memories together.
This is the place for making gifts with love. Of course, you'll be able to say, no-one else, anywhere, has one quite like it. You can say "I made this!"
Come and play!
