(549) ACRYLIC POURING Swipe Technique Using READY MIXED Paints - FLUID ART TUTORIAL

Today I'm creating a background for a painting using the swipe technique. I'm using ready mixed pouring paints which I have extended with a Floetrol and glue mix (detailed below) because I like both the look of the cells I get that way, and the dried result is matte and smooth, making for a really nice surface upon which to paint.

Cool, I like that the gray is surrounded by the green, like a nest! Can't wait to see what's next...

Hi Chris, I really like that: would make a beautiful scarf? I couldn’t paint a leaf since I can’t draw but I wonder if one could make leaves using chain or string pulls? I hope you’re well and enjoying all you’re doing, 😃

Oh good I need a refresher course on your beautiful silicone cell art. I've got some ideas that I need some experimenting to do. I somehow need to paint the markings of a dapple grey horse. I was going to try your style of negative painting for this horse. I'm not sure on how to do that but I'm going to give it a go anyway 😊. Have you ever painted a black jaguar. Their spots are subtle but beautiful. I would love to see how you paint one of those. For some reason I love black animals, but how do you paint in black and not come out with a cartoon character... that's my question 😋 and my suggestion 😁. I have 2 black Friesians that have not a speck of white or silver in them... or brown for that matter. So how do you creation highlights? Any suggestions or knowledge is most welcome 😊. I have confidence that you will paint a perfect subject on this piece... you always do!🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞

You probably don’t want to paint a cheetah 🐆 or leopard 🐆 on it! 😂 All joking aside, I love those cells and colors. ❤
