I am using a 16" x 20" stretched canvas. All the paints I use are acrylic paints mixed with additives to help them flow more easily. All my colors are stored and mixed in squeeze bottles for ease of use. I have leftover paint in a container and I add more colors from my squeeze bottles (that are already mixed with additives to help flow the paint) until I feel I have enough paint to work with. I spread a thick layer of white paint to help allow the next paint I add to mover more easily when I tilt the canvas. I use a small plastic dustpan to scoop the paint from the container and then ribbon pour a very wide ribbon from one corner to the other diagonally. I use a small silicone spatula to scrape out the residual colors onto the canvas and dip my bamboo skewer into it to manipulate it slightly and. I tilt the canvas and the colors spread. I add more color along the side of each side of the ribbon. I use the small round front spatula to swipe through the colors and add new paint using the residuals on the spatula elsewhere. I continue to use more colors dibbled from the bottles and manipulate using the skewer to add spirals and tendrils and dragging and pulling paint using the spatula creating marks. I tilt one last time allowing the edge catcher to stop paint from escaping and I am pleased with my result. 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.
