I wanted to create a stain glass look, so I cut two panels of white laminated wood (since alcohol ink works only on very smooth surfaces) and I outlined the images on each panel with black fabric paint. which is raised and gives it a three-dimensional look. Then I painted in between the lines with alcohol ink which is very hard to control but also very vibrant. I painted this as my wife and I looking young but with gray hair to represent us growing from youth to our old age!
