What Happens When You Spray Alcohol on a Pastel Painting? Watch the Dreamy and Magical Effects!

Welcome to my latest tutorial where I share an enchanting art technique that will transform your pastel paintings! In this video, I'll show you step-by-step how to create a glowing underpainting and then enhance it with a simple spritz of drugstore alcohol. By spraying alcohol onto the painting surface, we unlock a dreamy and magical effect that adds depth and luminosity to your artwork.

For this tutorial, I've chosen to paint a gorgeous field of lavender flowers stretching towards the golden glow of a glorious sunset. Watch as the I layer the pastels on the golden surface, creating a painting that is both vibrant and ethereal.
