Acrylic pour with HAIR DRYER Tip and Tricks 

I go down into my studio/garage determined to get the Dutch pour figured out. After a couple of hours of frustrating experimenting, I decided to stop and review the Dutch pour videos again. Lo and behold when I open RU-vid, up pops this perfect video. Thanks Left.

I’m so grateful for you LBA. I’m sure I speak for many when I say how thankful I am that you share all of these tips and tricks without a dollar sign attached to it. Thanks a million! ❤

What I liked about this is that you showed the wrong way immediately before showing the right way, so we can see the difference. Happy Saturday to me!!

I am just now seeing your videos...thanks so much for your down-to-earth explanations!!!

Wow! Learned so much. Cannot tell you how many videos I watch of Dutch pouring but no one explains as you do - even the angle for the dryer! Thank you so much for all you do❣

The hairdryer was my white whale for the longest time. Thank you for including the HOW to blow. That was something that escaped me for the longest time. Dutch Pours are all I can do at the moment, so videos like this are incredibly helpful! Thank you.

Wow!!! This is amazing!

8:43 How to Position the Hair Dryer?! That tip stopped me in my tracks. I just love the practical information you share on this channel. Thank you!

I’m so happy someone finally explains the dryer and how to hold it with the consistency of paint. Thank you so much!! ❤️

This is a great tutorial! So many "tutorials" just show the artist making art (which is beneficial, but not a true teaching tool). You are logical, you go step by step, you are a great teacher! More videos please!

Very nice, and thank you for sharing 🎨 😊

Great tips about angle of hair dryer.

That was badass how you fixed the white part you didn’t like

Puppy pools work great for containing the splatter. 😁

Sooooooooooooooo helpful to learn how to use the blow dryer. thanks

So cool, i could see women dancing in this one, love it and thanks for not gatekeeping

I have done acrylic pour for 20 years...thought I knew it all till I came across your channel. Now its nice to know why things are done and how they work together...THANKS

I'm glad you popped up on my RU-vid! You are now my go-to for everything acrylic paint! Your instructions are the best I have ever seen. This is an actual class! You brought me out of my acrylic funk. Thank you!

You explain very well ,thank you for everything for my first time😊❤

This is beautiful, I'm gonna try this tonight ☺️ thank you for explaining, I've had good and bad pours with this technique and I knew what I was doing wrong but you've shown exactly how to do it right too 😊

Thank you for showing us how different thicknesses affect the flow. Good info. ☮️💖🎶

I am certainly glad you found acrylic pouring. You help so many of us understand things that make us confused and miserable. THANK YOU!

I saw a dog and an eagle at one point. Nice work

Thank you - I'm saving this!!

I've watched this video more than once. Each time I get something new from it. Thank you.

Very informative. The instructions on the dryer helps me understand that

I like this painting and the volors. Amazing.😍😘

Thank you thank you. I’ve been watching videos struggling to pinpoint my errors. I was so close to accepting defeat. I’m excited for my next attempt 🤞

I really want to to thank you for all of your tutorials. I learned so much more about pouring with you than I did with a course I payed quite a bunch for. As a beginner it’s quite a challenge to know the consistency needed, how to do it and so on (honey 😉😅) the blow over and out.... so now I am addicted to your tutorials. What you do for us is really amazing, a huge thank you for all the advices you give, it makes my life so much easier.

Great tutorial. Love the way how you showed us how to use the dryer.

I'm in love with your work!!!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤

Thnks so much for sharing its fantastic 👌👍👌👍👌

Your explanations are super great :)

It's gorgeous, very helpful re the blower angles and starting above the canvas, and the consistencies. I have noticed too thick turns into bumpy rippled skins on the surface. Not what I was looking for. Your left brain and eye for beauty combo is such a gift to us and I appreciate the great organization and care you take in your presentations.

Anothe fantastic video!!!! Thank you!!!

Fantastic tips. 👌👍💙💙💙

Outstanding and perfect timing for me - this week I have been focused on doing dutch pours. And you take all the artists you watch, and bring everything in to your tutorial. Extremely helpful! THANKS!

You're explanation of what you like about your dryer is just what I needed to hear. I have a lot of them(30+ years in the beauty industry) but not one has the right concentrator nozzle. Now I know why its such a struggle! Thanks 😊

Absolutely stunning

Thank you. Learnt so much!!

Great tutorial, I really mean it. Best I’ve seen yet showing how to prepare for a Dutch pour using a hair dryer. Today I mixed my paints ready to do the big experience tomorrow. I’ve tried and tested a few of your other videos and wow 🤩 suddenly I can do it. I’ve found your paint calculator more then valuable too, makes it so much easier knowing how much you need in advance. It’s also very helpful when you click on the thick, medium and thin paint a box appears telling you what consistency to mix to. Excellent, I can’t say enough good things about my experiences. Your the best!

David, thank you for this tutorial. So many problems resolved by your research given to us. You are an EXCELLENT teacher!

Your instructions are so helpful. Thank you!

man consistency is the key to this form of artwork!!! That is my problem area!!

That is beautiful! I am a brand new beginner and I really appreciate the way you explain and show everything. I haven't been brave enough to get started yet - but soon!! Thank you for your instructions.

I really appreciate all the information that you give and you've helped me get better reactions when I try to do any acrylic pouring

Thank you so much for your great tutorial.!! This is sO helpful! Thank you,Thank you,Thank you!

So so nice love the combinaisn of colors ,and so well explaine 😊

Wow, I really needed your video today, I have been struggling so much with paint consistency and the hair dryer and I didn’t know where I was going wrong and now thanks to you I think I have it figured out! I’m going to go try it right now… Thank you thank you thank you

You are the absolute BEST teacher on RU-vid! I always turn to your videos when I have a question about painting. I always knew that consistency was key but, nobody explained it like you do! I finally feel like I can do the dutch pour! Trying 1st thing in the morning when I get my son off to school. Wish me luck...lol

I'm a newbie, and am not really interested in this technique right now. BUT, I'm watching, liking, and commenting... (and even watched the ads!!! LOL) BECAUSE I KNOW you had to have put SO MUCH time and energy into this in order to create this video for us... And for that, I'm thankful! ....in case I change my mind down the line and need to come back to this!! Thank you for all that you do!

Thank you.....best tutorial ever.

Thanks for another great video with helpful information. So need to think of Goldilocks and the Three Bears, needs to be just right! 😂 Will definitely be helpful when I attempt a Dutch pour again. Looks great.

As usual loved all your tips David. I've been struggling with this technique too. In addition to consistency I also struggled with how I was holding the hairdryer so I switched to a travel size and found it much easier and a better result (have only used it once so far). I'll have another go today using your tips 😊🙏

Good job!!! Really, very helpful

Thank you very much for the beautiful art composition. Your videos are very easy to understand and right to the point. I enjoy watching it every time. Thanks again.

Another great tutorial! Last week I attempted my first Dutch pour…it didn’t go so well😁 I have been trying to figure out what I was doing wrong and after watching your video it turns out I was doing several things wrong! I look forward to trying again and using the tips you shared! Thanks so much for sharing this with us! Be happy and well!

HEY 👍Thank you! I definitely have a love-hate relationship with the hairdryer… I always want to use it and I always hate what comes out… LOL I only have one question do you keep it on the heat setting or do you hold down the cold button as the dryer is blowing? I actually have some color that I mix last night and I think it’s the right consistency but I didn’t produce any cells… You know where I get my cells is right on the edge of the canvas and whether tipping the canvas or blowing the canvas or using the hairdryer(trying to anyway) those cells always have to come off the canvas because there’s so much paint in the middle of the canvas… So I know I can get cells I just can’t get it where I want them… I actually agree with you I think Molly is one of the best artist that uses the hairdryer… She can do one sweep and it blows your mind! And Kanella I always like how she places the paint on a canvas in that Y design… maybe you have another question would you have been able to salvage the first canvas that was too thick the reason I asked that is because I like the bold colors and you also had a good composition starting… And the one with the correct consistency the last one I often wondered can I add Paint even after I basically was done but there was one section that needed something more… I guess I actually have a Lotta questions lol Saturday is my painting day I dedicate the whole day to destroying my kitchen there’s a few times in the middle of the week in the middle of the night that all get up and start fiddling around mixing colors seeing if what I think will go together actually well I don’t use a color wheel color just comes naturally to me and I haven’t been doing this very long it’s only been four or five months with this type of medium I’ve been painting all my life so picking out colors is not my issue But in all that time only one painting the colors that I put together did not go … I think my biggest issue is composition and second is cells… But I’d like this type of medium and that’s basically because I do not become attached to the painting… Traditional painting you put in so much time and effort basically blood sweat and tears that after it’s done I won’t let anyone have it… So basically I am a hoarder… I know and I understand that everything is an experiment and a suggestion I always try to keep that in mind before I start thanks for the video I guess I’m going to use my hairdryer today👍✌️🤪

I love that composition
