Having fun with alcohol markers the not so usual way!

Many years ago alcohol markers were all over YouTube. Coloring people were using them mostly, but there were some artists also who enjoyed drawing / painting with them. They created flower illustration, landscape paintings or illustrations in comic book style. Copic markers and swatches done with them were all over the place. Then, OHUHU markers appeared and got much attention because of the fact that they were sold at a reasonable price.

What I have up to now never seen on YouTube are abstract art pieces done with alcohol markers. This may be due to the fact that alcohol markers are not lightfast and you need to take some precautions for your art works in order to prevent fading. I usually scan my alcohol marker artwork and put the originals away. And: I work with rather small format. I have no studio, so I have to work small. However I deeply enjoy doing those abstract artworks, and although some of them might look similar, everyone of them is different.
