(HOW TO) Take your Beginner Straight Pour to the next level!

The straight pour... Many beginners in fluid, acrylic pouring begin with this technique. I created this episode to help the budding newbie with some advanced tips and tricks to elevate their art to the next level. Fluid art techniques can be achieved with a number of different mediums in multiple ways. I suggest starting out with intermediate, student grade acrylic tube paint. In the long run you get the best bang for your buck and this quality of acrylic paints are good for almost every technique out there.

My recipe is 2 Parts Floetrol : 1 Part Paint and the consistencies are slightly different. I did not worry about matching them in this episode and saw no real change. My white paint is sligthtly thinner than all the other colors.

My cloud mix: 1 Part Satin Enamels DecoArt to 1 Part Artist Loft Soft body then add 2 parts floetrol. You want your cloud mix a little thinner than your pouring paints.
