Small Pink Tear-Drop Alcohol Ink Earrings

These earrings are made from an original (not a print or copy) alcohol ink painting of mine, done on a synthetic paper.  In these earrings, four different inks combine to create wonderful patterns and layers of color.   Alcohol inks are alcohol-based pigments which dry quickly but can be manipulated to create different effects.  I use a variety of techniques to work with the inks.   The backs of the earrings (last photo) are stippled in a paler pink and magenta.  Both sides are resined with a UV light-cured resin.  Truly one of a kind!   The tiny ice pick bails and French Hook earwires are silver-plated over brass.
