Rustic Puddles - Balancing blocks of Color plus cells and lacing - Acrylic Pouring Art
288Hey Everyone! Thank you for being here today.
Today I am doing a swipe technique. I did one previously that was all BLUES - this is the video if you want to check that one out: https://youtu.be/-tXv-Hy6UHw
I wanted to change up my palette and almost create a rustic look by using only 4 tones. When you look at this creation what does it say to you? What vibe do you get? Why don't you give it a go yourself...

Color Palette:
Paints were mixed with Owatrol (UK version of the US Floetrol) 1 part paint, 2 parts pouring medium. Mixed together with a dash of water and Liquidex Gloss Varnish Liquid (for the shine) to make it slightly more fluid. For the white swipe I used 1 part paint, 1 part Australian Floetrol. The piece is varnished with Winsor & Newton Gloss Varnish Spray.
- Amsterdam: Titanium white, Black
- Pebeo: Iridescent Copper and Gold
Hair/Blow Dryer: I currently use the Remington D3010 and always use the cool setting unless I specify otherwise.
