Your general approach to explain the concepts analytically is right my alley, it really speaks to me. I very much enjoyed all the videos I have seen from you so far. I thank you so much about your generosity for putting this material out there, for everyone to learn. You are a fantastic teacher!

I am disabled, learning and retaining information is really difficult. I will check out your article, thank you so much! I never felt I had much artistic talent. Paint pouring really is a joy, I have found colors to be very therapeutic and nurturing. Before becoming disabled I worked in high tech, so I very much appreciate how you test things out and distill outcomes. Many thanks.

Great guide. Funny its called pour painting when most of my time spent is on mixing. I started playing with my pour medium mix and consistencies so i usually mix enough paint for 2-4 canvases. I can start with a ring/split cup pour or 2 then thin a color to swipe and or add silicone to do a flip cup. In the end i think of the group of paintings as a 'color series' that go well with each other. Usually i'm happy with at least one from the batch :)

Very helpful ! I may add another way of checking paint consistency. I saw it on a youtube video, but I really can't remember the name of the artist. To check that the consistency of her paints was all the same for a pour, she would put a drop of each (same amount of course) on a piece of paper, and then tip the paper at an angle and compare how fast and far the paints would run. If one was running a lot less than the others, she would dilute it a bit more. I found that was a great way to check, visual, and even measurable !

Thank you for posting this. It took my several months to get the hang of paint consistency when I first started doing acrylic pouring, then I went almost a year not doing it on canvas and I feel like I’m having to start all over again. 😩 I’ve been commissioned to do a Dutch pour Angel for a local Doctor’s office, and I’ve had the worst time getting my paint consistency right. I’ve been using DecoArt Americana Wicker White as my base and I think that may be part of the problem. The word “sticky” is the perfect description!! In the past, I’ve used Apple Barrel but it has a tendency to crack so I thought I would use something different. As a result I’ve had to scrape the d@mn canvas 3 times! So I think I’ll try another brand for my base, and see if that helps.

Great tutorial! So consistency of the paint is really viscosity, and the intent then is to create a consistent viscosity so whatever we create can be recreated to some extent. 💡 So we can create something intentionally and skillfully, as opposed to happy accidents. 👍🏻it’s interesting how the pva/glue affects the surface tension of the paint. Hadn’t thought of it that way before.

Good luck recreating something you’ve created previously. If only. If I want a triptych or diptych I have to pour them at the same time, one after the other or placing the canvases very close and treat it as one painting. I have a beautiful pour that captures everyone’s attention when I invite them inside. I used the same paints, same consistency, same colours, same canvas and same equipment, but even though I did it shortly afterwards I can’t get anywhere close to the original. It’s very frustrating because I could have sold the first one over and over and over; literally a dozen time. Frustrating as it is, it’s also what I love about it, the unpredictable result.

and just how warm of honey? the consistency varies w/temperature. After 6 months of inconsistent results I found Gina Deluca's consistency scale. I wish everyone would use it in their so called tutorials. I'm sure you'd give it a #LeftBrain thumbs up. Now after after almost a year I found your channel KUDOS from one who can only learn by knowing how/why something works

Yeah, 15 seconds in the microwave is gobs different than 20 seconds. I love Gina. She helped get me started too.

Thank you for taking your time and explain all these for all the brain levels. I love how you work with notes and being so meticulous. I jump from the plain and I figure it out how the parachute works on the way down. You didn’t teach me only how to combine pouring medium with paint but also how to bring more clarity in what I am doing. Much appreciated!

Thank you, thank you, thank you for the straight forward and very helpful overview. I’m a beginner and couldn’t figure out why I didn’t ever get one cell. Clearly my paint was too thick.

I haven't watched many of your videos, so I'm not familiar with your background. You think like someone with a science or engineering background. Havin had a science education at uni, this is very helpful to me. Thank you for your consice thoughts. Just a thought: sometimes if I'm mixing a paint that's very thick, I hesitate to use too much water. Instead, I use airbrush medium so as not to overstretch the binders. Just a thought.
