Two questions for you would enamels work ? Also when your artwork is dry do you put a clear gloss over it or just leave it as is ? Thanks 😊

@LeftBrainedArtist 2 года назад

@@tracysavage599 I always put a varnish on to give it some shine and to add dust and UV protection. Some enamels work you have to test with your paints and mediums.

❤❤😮 Thank Yoou!! I've been searching you are right there's only one other acrylic fluid Artist that sorta teaches you, but it doesn't break it down, Ive gotten many ideas from Fluid Acrilic Pours for my Organic Soap Making, however I do not have the money for floetrol and all that other stuff so trying to make something very special for my mom. She just had a baseball-sized tumor removed and it was diagnosed with 4th stage lung cancer and I want to have it done by the time she gets back from her Radiation Treatment, and all my $ goes towards medical expenses for her..However I know everyone feels the pinch these days..I Just wanna do a Good Job..I have my Canvas, my acrylics, but no pouring Mediums or Laquer..So, Ty❤❤

@suzannerenay8910 2 года назад

Here’s a tip that works great for me and maybe for others as well. I keep a few large cups on my table. One for pink/purple, one for blue/green, one for gray/black…you get the idea. Then when I scrape my canvas or table top, or even the last drops in my mixing cups, I put that into my large cups. You’d be surprised at the beautiful colors! Now I always have “free” paint for my base coats and flow extenders. Have also used them to fix sides of the canvas. No waste!!

@LeftBrainedArtist 2 года назад

Ooh, great idea. How long do they last? Do you keep track of which have silicone?

@suzannerenay8910 2 года назад

They last a long time. Months. I cover them with plastic wrap secured with a rubber band. I don’t use silicone and all are mixed with floetrol and some have a bit of liquitex pm as well. Some are metallic and some regular acrylic. Always the cups turn into a pretty metallic color. Funny that I’ve been doing this for a long time and have never turned my cup to mud! Sometimes I’ll pour a little into a small cup and use it in a pour.

@@LeftBrainedArtist Did 3 pours on paper, looks pretty bad, but as you always say- I learned things...and at least I got over the hump. Can't get elmer's glue in my country, so bought ridiculously expensive pouring medium, but also bought cheap clear glue. I learned that you can use cheap glue, don't need the expensive stuff. That was a valuable lesson!

@kevinorourke6394 3 года назад

I'm an artist (BFA Ohio University) but a real rookie on this amazing genre. I'm retired and my wife and I do craft shows. I can't wait to create some beautiful pieces. I love your educational tutorials. I hated the videos that showed techniques to music with NO "teacher" talking; the "instructor" never explains the process as they progress through the piece. "Clever" text inserts to explain the process doesn't cut it. I hope these artists would never use this style for children; young adults, (or even newbies) trying learn anything using virtual education.

@LeftBrainedArtist 3 года назад

That's was pretty much the impetus for me to create the channel. I couldn't find the information in a way that made me understand the whole process. Glad it was helpful. I also look forward to seeing the amazing art you'll create.

We used this video to instruct our family at our family reunion and all the grandchildren (ages 8 to 20) and the adults really enjoyed acrylic paint pour art! It was a huge success. Thank you! We tried with and without the silicone oil. We preferred using the oil, the results were much more spectacular. Thank you.

@LeftBrainedArtist 9 месяцев назад

Oil definitely can add some pizzazz to a pour. Glad to hear your paint party was a success!

@jengentry06 2 года назад

THANK YOU for this video! I've been just such a person, binge-watching other people's acrylic pours, but always wanting to try it for myself. We bought all the materials and then just didn't really know where to go from there. Your video was very instructive, especially about mixing the paints and helping viewers recognize the correct pouring consistencies. Our first pours may not have gone *exactly* how we wanted, but they still look pretty cool, and we have plenty of paint and canvases remaining to try again a few more times without more purchases.

@LeftBrainedArtist 2 года назад

You go Jenny. Isn't pouring so much fun? Just take your time, make small changes and keep track of what works and what doesn't and you'll be pouring masterpieces in no time. Also, love your failures. They make you better and should be celebrated too!

I am so happy to hear that the thinking part of pouring is over for you!. Let the fun begin. I started painting out of necessity, I needed something to spark my brain out of severe PTSD. I found Sarah Mack (love her). After watching for a couple of months, I again recognized the power of colors. The rest is history!.

I truly love and adore all of your videos! Although I have already tried paint pouring, it’s been a few months since my last one, and your comment the beginning of this video made me laugh out loud.

@dashingshadowbolt6209 3 года назад

Thanks! I've been painting for a while, but I still learned some great stuff from this. I can't pour today, because my cat will complain. 😆 During lockdown he has become accustomed to have constant access to my lap. Since I paint with a large plastic tub on my sofa (what could go wrong with that) he's decided that the best option is to stare at me with big eyes until the guilt becomes to much and I have to stop painting. So, I paint every other day, to keep the peace. I did paint yesterday and you are totally right, you just have to jump in and see what happens. One of my favourites is actually one I did really early, but every pour is a learning experience, even if I end my session scraping all the paint back off the canvases. And my painting journal is my go to guide for experiments, tracking what worked and what didn't etc.

@LeftBrainedArtist 3 года назад

Excellent news. Does your cat "paint" too? The cat I used to have wouldn't stay away and want to paw everything and make a mess.

@dashingshadowbolt6209 3 года назад

@@LeftBrainedArtist He has a huge fluffy tail that will get into things from unfathomable distances and occasionally gets in it. His thing is glitter. He loves the stuff. He always has to have some on when I have it out, and I buy my glitter by the kilo, so it's fairly often. The thing is, he's been used to me crafting from when he was young. I sit on the couch with my legs crossed up and he lies on one side and I twist and craft on the other. He could sit on my lap, but I wouldn't be giving him 101% of my attention. He is very entitled and pandered to, hence every other day is a Corvinus Day. I used to have one that would manage to walk through any kind of paint anywhere you put it and looked away for a few moments. We still have a line of white paw prints leading from the cat flap and down the front path. She also tried to stick her head in a bowl of hair dye once, but he managed to stop her, but she did have a pink flash for a bit.

I've been watching a lot of the acrylic pouring videos for the last week or so and many of them seem incredibly complex looking or the results are. But I wondered how to do it, what kind of supplies one would need and I was so happy to find your video! It was nice to see that you don't have to spend a lot of money on paints or supplies. It looks relatively inexpensive. And I loved every one of your acrylic pours that you did here! Thank you for Not only being a great teacher but for taking the time to show me a new way of painting. A way of painting totally different from the traditional way I've always practiced, which is oil painting or acrylic painting with brushes on a canvas. Subscribed! 🌹

@DutchyDutcherson 3 года назад

LOVE this video! So clear on how you mix the paints to get the right consistency! That’s what’s holding me back. I don’t know yet what the paint should feel like to get a good pour. I want to do a Dutch pour but I’m not sure if the base paint needs to be thin too just like the other paints or if the goal is to have it a little thicker but still runny? Also the fact that different brands and different colors vary so much in weight freaks me out. I know I need to just give it a go. Thank you so much for your clear teaching! Felt like you were talking directly to me. 😂👍🏽

@LeftBrainedArtist 3 года назад

Dutch pours are VERY thin Mrs M. Like absolutely no mound and maybe even a bit of a crevasse when you drizzle them back in to the paint.

I did my first couple of acrylic paint pouring art today. I just poured the paint, swished it around a bit, threw in a couple of wavy lines, swished it around again, then once I set them down, splattered a bit of rubbing alcohol here and there. They're very groovy looking, and while I won't make my fortune from any of my art, I enjoy it a lot.
