Adding Shadows to Pearl Paints PLUS Finger Swipe Art - Abstract Acrylic Painting Tutorial
480Do you ever just think, let's FEEL the paint and use our fingers rather than any art tools. Today, I am doing just that and I am diving into my painting to really feel the movement of this piece to create some STUNNING results. I can't wait for you to see them.

▶ Technique: Liquid Puddle Pour, Finger Swipes and Tilt.
▶ Canvas size: 12x24 inches
▶ Pouring Medium formula: My paints are mixed with a Pouring Medium for all techniques unless otherwise stated in the video. The ratio I use is 1:3:1 Paint/Medium/Water. I use Floetrol/Owatrol for my medium. For those creations that I use water only (again I will say so in the video so please watch the full video for more details) Water only creations use the ratio of 1:1 paint to water.
▶ Color Palette:
Amsterdam: Lamp Black (Base Color)
Amsterdam Pearlescent Paints: Yellow, Violet, Red, Blue
▶ Hair dryer: When I use a hair dryer I use the Remington D3010 and always use the cool setting and the lowest blow speed.
