I am using a 16"x20" stretched canvas. I use white paint added to the canvas fully covered, and a section of turquoise diagonally down the middle as the background and to help whatever I add next. I add a couple of colors and continue to use the large silicone spatula to swipe/smooth them into place. All the I paint colors I use are pre-mixed with additives to help them flow more easily. I am using shimmering metallic paints from a variety of sources and also color-shifting paints, and they are all intertwined with non-metallics also. I apply them freely using my squeeze bottles. I add paint until I feel there are enough colors for the base layer. Now I use the drapery size ball chain and add it into the wet paint. I use the ball chain to pull very specific patterns by placing the chain into an inch or two wide puddles to this I add a second color just below the first. I add the chain into the top color at just one side of the chain and gently pull down, creating the illusion of stems and foliage as I go. I pull and add and pull and add and drag chin until I feel I am done and in love with the finished artwork. In the end, I hake tiny spirals on all the flowers to finish with a flourish.
My "pouring" mixture or "recipe" is simple- and starts with 2 parts(estimated) Gac 800 from "Golden "added into any acrylic paint color 8 parts, (amounts are always estimated) This starts the mixing process. Mix the paint and Gac thoroughly. Next, I add my mixed Floetrol and (half )Deco Art pouring medium. (shake it first every time! )The truth is, lately, that's my go-to. I add the same (or more) ounces as the first two ingredients and mix everything thoroughly. The consistency is usually medium body/ weight, but other weights are usable with minor adjustments.
To mix, if you use squeeze bottles as I do, add a marble and shake your paints every time before you use them. All my acrylic paints are mixed in advance and contained and stored in squeeze bottles. If you are not using squeeze bottles, I suggest using a container that has a lid. I have often used the 4oz size plastic deli containers, and the paint keeps for a long time in them, but you still will have to stir before using the mix again because the Floetrol and other flow agents will rise to the top between uses. None of my acrylic paint has any added silicon. To create the pearlescent effects seen in most of my artworks, I use "Golden's" Iridescent pearl "Fine" added to colors. By "eye " until I am pleased with what I see.
Every day I learn new things. I will never stop experimenting, and I am happy to share what I discover with you.
