Stop watching videos and start acrylic pouring!

[@LeftBrainedArtist]

I know, brown isn't everyone favorite color. Other than brown, what colors do you find it hard to work with?

[@hawkpaul8735]

For some reason I always have trouble with silver. It always vanishes.

[@alexandriamonk2345]

For me it's orange. It's just not a color I am drawn to and other than using it with rainbow colors or with pink/red and yellow, I find it hard to be creative when picking out a color palette

[@alexandriamonk2345]

​@hawkpaul8735 metalics will always be thinner because of the type of pigment. Mixing your metalics a bit thicker than the rest of your paints will keep that color separation. If metalics are too thin, they make a shiny haze over the other colors. If you're going for that, great! If you'd rather more disinclined, make the silver a bit thicker! Like if all your paints have a 2 count trace, make the silver a 3 count trace!

[@hollybennett7664]

David, I am a true beginner. I have never done acrylic pouring before but once. I really don't know what I'm doing. What pour is a good one for a total beginner like me? I wanted to try a Dutch pour, but someone said it was a harder pour to try with the hairdryer. What are your thoughts? Thanks!

[@bridgesadventures]

I am new to this technique and out of the hundreds of other videos I’ve watched no one has explained this in such detail like you did. Thank you so so so much.

I wish this video had been around when I first started. I watched loads of videos but nobody was as helpful as you are. A phrase I heard a lot was 'make your paint the consistency of warm honey'. As I'd never seen warm honey it meant nothing. Your mound upon a mound etc was much more logical to hear. Thanks for everything you've done David. I'm sure this video will help people new to the hobby.

[@LeftBrainedArtist]

You are so welcome! That is good info to know also. Always trying to get insights in to what people watching my channel would most benefit from.

Thank you very much for your videos. You are a wonderful teacher. I just turned 83 years old and decided to do something different. I bought my canvas and tools and started to pour. I made some big mistakes and then I found you. I am watching all your videos now. This has been probably two months since I started. Now I am pausing and learning the right way. However, when I show to people what I already painted they love them. So, that encourage me to learn more and do it right. Thanks again.

[@LeftBrainedArtist]

You got this! If I can do it, anyone can really.

[@charlesstewart6191]

Just a friendly tip, if you put the paint (the thickest) into the cup first then the glue (the second thickest) , mix them, then add the water (the thinnest) into that a little at a time you'll have an easier time emulsifying them.

[@LeftBrainedArtist]

Great tip!

[@melissakennedy5897]

You should actually try to make them all the same thickness if you possibly can there are ways to do that

[@Tismesue]

​@melissakennedy5897 I'd love to hear your tips on making water the same thickness! 😂

[@WireSlinger]

​@melissakennedy5897 I'm so confused 😂 what does that mean?

[@sue4940]

Actually you pre mix glue and water so you have a " base" pm. Once you start mixing several colors

[@TwistedShears]

I painted a little in high school, then in 2015 my mom wanted me to do a painting for her. It had been so long, I found myself watching KZbin videos and discovered FLUID ART! 300+ paintings later...

I just did my first pour and it came out amazing! However, if I hadn’t watched these videos, I would have had a hot mess. I bought a beginners set, and the instructions for mixing their medium with their paints made it WAY too thin! So I used all of your tests and got it right. I am so excited! Thank you for giving us these lessons. I normally do acrylic paintings that are very detailed landscapes. So this was a breath of fresh air 😂

[@alexandriamonk2345]

I have been pour painting for about 3 years and this was great to watch! If this video had come out when I first started, WOW I would saved so much money! You actually pointed some things out i hadn't thought of because I'm also self taught. For instance, scraping the stir stick! I never put 2 and 2 together that scraping it and mixing a bit before I check consistency would change the flow coming off the stick. You seem like such a nice guy that loves to help. For the more "logical" artist (I was more of a math and science person in school) the way you explain things really leads to a lot of LightBulb moments with the context of my previous pours and frustrating moments when I couldn't figure out why something didn't go right. Thanks for posting! You're one of the artists I wish posted more often because you shed a lot of light on a subject that Google doesn't always have a straight answer on

@LeftBrainedArtist I really like your comparison videos. Do you happen to have anything on varnishes/finishes? I'm kind of guessing at this. Very few people have a lot of videos on finishes, liquid varnished and sprays vs brushes. I tried SaraTaylor's way, which worked fine until Michaels stopped selling a soft foam brush. I have ruined 3 paintings absolutely love and hope can be fixed, but idk where to start or how to not ruin the other paintings

@@alexandriamonk2345 For gloss and semi-gloss I rub mine on in very small layers as you can see in this video - kzbin.info/www/bejne/aofUeYh9Zr-YrLc This method does not work well for satin and matte which have matting agent in them and really need to be done in a thick coat with a brush/foam brush.

Thanks a bunch. One of the reasons I'm interested in pours but haven't started is because every video leaves out important information, or uses terms pourers understand, but I don't. I've been trying to hit a lot of beginner videos so I can fill in some of those gaps. Then I found yours. Very helpful!

You are welcome! If you have more questions just ask.

So much great info! I have been wanting to try acrylic painting but I also needed to understand the basics so I wouldn't spend lots of $$ while learning. Can't wait to begin! ❤
