The Beings Within - Squeegee Art - Creating Abstract Art Paintings
I love abstract art and this creation I made is no exception; in fact this is by far my favorite because I can see so many things in this piece. I can see creatures, people, places and can feel so many emotions from this. I'd love to hear what you see too - so make sure you let me know as the creation evolves and transforms.

Today's Tutorial Information:
▶ Technique: Abstract Art - Painting with a Squeegee.
▶ Pouring Medium formula: My paints are mixed with a pouring medium and water. I use good quality paints that have a good binder. My pouring medium is Owatrol Floetrol. I use a ration of 1:3:1 - paint: pouring medium: water. You may have to adjust your ratios depending on the paint brands you use.
▶ Color Palette:
Amsterdam: Titanium white, Lamp Black, Brilliant Blue, Sky Blue Light, Turquoise Blue,
Winsor & Newton: Cobalt Blue
Pebeo: Iridescent Gold
▶ Hair dryer: When I use a hair dryer I use the Remington D3010 and always use the cool setting and the lowest blow speed.
