Pouring A West Virginia Clock! 💙💛 Fluid Painting On A Vinyl Record

Almost heaven, West Virginia! Today I’m painting for my home state in a WVU-colors clock!
#acrylicpouring #fluidart #wvu #westvirginia
I’m painting on an old vinyl record for this clock, using a split cup and a ring pour technique. Even though my hand was too shaky to get a clean ring, I totally love how it turned out!
All my paints are mixed with Elmer’s glue-all and water (60% glue, 40% water). Rather than having a set ratio, I just added the glue mixture to the paint a bit at a time until it reached a medium consistency!

Well done Anna. You thought out the contingencies and made allowances for them. Your WVU clock is a winner 🥇

Thank you!

[@cheryllewis7017]

The little delicate petal like rings look so deep and 3D. Especially where the yellow and blue are close together. I could look at it all day and see new things. Just brilliant Anna❤

[@AnnaBlountArt]

Aw thank you Cheryl!

[@pattisoutherland3791]

This turned out nicely! I made several clocks on records last year and gave them to grown children and grandchildren as Christmas gifts!

[@AnnaBlountArt]

[@AnnaBlountArt]

Thank you! Good luck, you got this!

[@lechatbotte.]

Very pretty

[@AnnaBlountArt]

Thanks Linda!

[@RebekahSue]

The depth you got in that center is a really cool illusion. I don't think there's a rule against leaning on something (a box, maybe) while you pour... Says the woman with a tremor in her hands, herself. Also, I got the silicone cups, and think I'm placing them in a larger cup with a handle to give the walls some substance. You always do such a lovely job that I look forward to Monday mornings!

[@AnnaBlountArt]

Thank you Rebekah! Putting the silicone cup in a stiff cup is a great idea!

[@tccreations302]

Pretty colors

[@AnnaBlountArt]

Thank you!

[@DebbiePagtalonia]

Anna, this is amazing! I love the way the colors dried! I was wondering if it would be easier for you to use a split cup with a handle? It might put less stress on your hands.

[@AnnaBlountArt]

Thanks! I don’t think it’s a stress thing, just a control thing… 🤪 Usually if I make bigger circles I can get the lines cleaner. So maybe that’s just what I have to do.

[@danapowers2102]

So cool! Love the finished piece but would still like to see how you put the back on.. thx.

[@AnnaBlountArt]

Thanks! I buy clock motors on Amazon which makes it very easy.

[@dleigh4534]

No i have never made a clock. When I retired I let the batteries go dead and never replaced them. The time is always now! Your clock however turned out nice.

[@AnnaBlountArt]

Thank you!

[@donnalivingston9164]

It turned out very pretty. I plan on doing a clock. Did you resin or varnish when finished?

[@AnnaBlountArt]

Thanks! I think this one I will varnish but some of them I resin 😊

[@bonniefeldman9444]

How do you normally do the back? Also no sealer or resin on top?

[@AnnaBlountArt]

I will sometimes just paint the whole back one color, and sign it. I am going to varnish this one, but I do sometimes resin my clocks.
