Abstract using spray paints and water dipping

[@dottimerritt9306]

Now I know what to do with those little bits of spray paint that are always left and I’m to frugal to throw away! I knew somebody would come up with something someday and here you are! Thank you

[@haleywhitehall7942]

Very helpful tutorial. Looks less messy than acrylic pouring. Thank you for sharing. This turned out beautiful.

[@nadinegarwitz8695]

Wow....I didn't expect that outcome. It's beautiful.

[@MultiLisa10]

Very nice! Thanks for sharing this technique!👍💥

[@MelanieMaguire]

Wow! Beautiful. Billy Idol was a treat too! Thanks .

[@airbrushken5339]

It's a technique I used in the early 70's custom painting motorcycle tanks and side covers. We'd pour acrylic lacquer from small paper cups slowly onto the water surface (55 Gal drum cut in half...no plastic boxes back then) I'd use three primary colors and black and white... swirl the colors with a thin stick, and then dip the side cover or side of the round tank, which was already base coated and sanded. We would then mask the shape we wanted for the side and spray the base color over the excess. Final trick was to back mask the shape and spray it with candy colors.... excellent technique , but extremely time consuming. we'd follow up with something simple like stencil shapes/images of horseman or skulls... your choice... time waits for no one.. LOL nice post mate

Wow how Amazing, I have done this just with paper and paint but never with a canvas block that is far my Fabulous than paper, thank you for sharing.

[@merryclicker]

I don't use spray paint, since I'm in an apartment and there really isn't anyplace available but I might be tempted to go visit my son to beg the use of his driveway for something like this. I think the result is really cool, absolutely, with the look of an acrylic pour. Not so much an acrylic dip, which has a softer look, but this is just awesome the way it is.

[@GreywolfMoonsong]

There is a water based spray paint out there called "Sugar" ... it's more expensive but it doesn't have the odor that regular petroleum spray paints have :-) www.dickblick.com/products/sugar-artists-acrylic-spray-paint/?clickTracking=true&wmcp=pla&wmcid=items&wmckw=01456-1440&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI4LWT8cjL1wIVlshkCh2MSACjEAQYASABEgJSf_D_BwE

im gonna try but im going to add some silicone to water to hopefully get some killer cells .and if you are unfamiliar with cells .check out acrylic paint pouring.thanks for the vid.

[@Jennifr1966]

When I did my first pour, it turned out very much like this! If only I'd known this beforehand!

What paints are u using, acrylic or oil.hv u mixed something in water. Nice

[@GreywolfMoonsong]

Just plain water, mid temperature (not hot or cold) and plain Rustoleum 2X spray paint :-)

What is that thing he's using for a handle?

[@GreywolfMoonsong]

It is just a piece of metal strapping I bent :-) ... I just slide each end behind the canvas and wood frame

[@AndreaStevens2012]

How does it look now, years later? Did you use any type of finishing product like varnish? Cool idea.

[@GreywolfMoonsong]

That one sold ... I have several on my wall that have been there for years ... no finishing product and still look bright and sharp 🙂

[@lizzyjo7454]

How long did it take your canvas to dry? Nice job 👍

[@Nativtexan2]

I had my doubts with the multiple sprays of paint but it did come out pretty nice.

[@bridgettescreations1733]

Yes it does work I was wondering if it works with canvas. I do alot of acrylic fluid pouring I'm going to try this. Thank you

It's the same thing as what we do to our nails. Never thought to do it to my canvases.

SweetTea: How do you do it to finger nails?! What types of paint or nail polish would work & is it on Water like this or more like an acrylic pour & is anything 'mixed or or added' to it? Sorry, I'm New to this whole world of 'Painting' & 'Art'

[@pneumichelin2966]

Without mask protect yourself.. dont worry painters get rich when they die

[@RabeccaPrimeau]

The handle To help you hold to dip what did you use?

[@GreywolfMoonsong]

I used a bent piece of metal strapping and slipped the edges just under the canvas between canvas and frame 🙂

[@mrbien8636]

Good

[@sheilacaldon2371]

Hi, I hope you're still monitoring your comments as I wanted to know if you treated the canvas with Gesso or anything before dipping? Thanks.

[@ajmorrison55]

Pretty much all canvas come pre gessoed. If they are white they have been gessoed

[@sheilacaldon2371]

@@ajmorrison55 thanks!

[@ajmorrison55]

No treatment of the canvas ... I DO, however, give it some extra time to dry completely 🙂

What kind of spray paint is it? And does it rub off?

[@GreywolfMoonsong]

Rustoleum 2x ... doesn’t rub off, just have to let it dry longer 🙂

[@maryjones8005]

What kind of spray paint did you use? I bought some from an art store and tried this and it wouldn’t stick to the canvas. It just globbed up and peeled off😔

[@TheSweetMartinez]

I saw a post where he said that he uses Rustoleum 2x spray paint.

[@akdriller8806]

Pre-spray what you intend to coat with spray paint, like sticks to like.

[@ace_nano]

add borax to the water

[@Bunky1er]

Was the canvas prepped with anything?

[@GreywolfMoonsong]

Just a regular store bought canvas ... it does take longer to fully dry because of the water

[@digitalfusionpk]

Wow

[@FranceslovesJesus]

Where did you get the handle to put on the back of the canvas

[@GreywolfMoonsong]

I took a piece of flat aluminum strapping and bent it into shape ... it has just the right amount of tension that it slides between the canvas and the stretcher bars and holds it tight without ripping or breaking anything :-) ... a couple bucks at Home Depot :-)

[@FranceslovesJesus]

Greywolf Moonsong thank you!! It turned out great!

It doesn’t cost that much for the paints 🙂I usually use older cans that don’t have a lot left in them for these 🙂

[@quadflopper1012]

the pro's say you can't swirl sprayed paint like that and everyone on youtube i've seen the paint clumps if they try to swirl it, did you use borax?

[@GreywolfMoonsong]

Not at all 🙂warm tap water and Rustoleum 2x ... the “Pro’s” limit themselves with statements like that, never say the word “can’t “ 🙂 I say try and if it doesn’t work, change it a little and try again ... I’ve never had any problems with sticking or clumping
