Trying Out New Fluid Pouring Techniques




Back to my abstract side, this is my favorite type of creative painting I get to let loose!
Here I'm trying out a new technique using acrylic paints.


This is a fluid pour. I mixed up the colors of paint in a cup, added some acrylic medium and a little water - sorry no exact measurements (I'm like this when I bake too). Once the colors are poured I added some more layers of color and using Isoproply alcohol in a spray bottle to create more texture. I'm waiting for them to dry at the moment.



These are all on a size 8x8" clayboard.


 I will decide if they need a coat of resin on top.


I love the cells an lace affects I created by playing with different weights of paints and 
other additives.
