Ohh those Colors!! 🩷💜🤎💙 Beautiful Violet Pour - Abstract Acrylic Fluid Art Painting

I wanted to use a base color that I've not used before as the main negative space color and wow! it sure did help those colors within the palette to pop and I think this is a great mini dutch pour painting.

Today's Tutorial Information:
▶ Technique: Dutch Pour
▶ Pouring Medium formula: My paints are mixed with a pouring medium and water. I use good quality paints that have a good binder. My pouring medium is Owatrol Floetrol. I use a ration of 1:3:1 - paint: pouring medium: water. You may have to adjust your ratios depending on the paint brands you use.
▶ Color Palette:
Amsterdam - Caput Mortuum Violet (base), Vandyke Brown,
Arteza - Pearl Marmalade, Pear Deep Brown
Liquitex - Blue Turquoise
Pebeo: Iridescent Blue Black
▶ Hair dryer: When I use a hair dryer I use the Remington D3010 and always use the cool setting and the lowest blow speed.

How do you go about choosing your color palette? I'm in a block for choosing colors

[@MarkJRatcliffeArt]

I use various things for inspiration - I have written some reference guides that might help - www.patreon.com/markjratcliffeart/shop but generally nature, fashion, shop windows, my environment, clothing ☺️ Hope that helps

I really love the colour combo but in australia i cant get pebeo blue black ,have you got any other paints that are similar please

[@MarkJRatcliffeArt]

Oh I’m not sure as haven’t seen that in other brands. Maybe mix a blue with a little paynes grey

[@CherylCampbell-fx1yb]

@@MarkJRatcliffeArt thankyou for this but would I mix a dark blue with Paynes grey or a lighter blue I’m just not sure what to do

[@CherylCampbell-fx1yb]

@@MarkJRatcliffeArt I’m just wondering is it pebeo 360 because I think I found it in one website in Melbourne where I live but I’m now looking for the Amsterdam colour as well because I don’t think I have that one either,just a suggestion and I know you give us so much information but could you maybe put the number of the colour in your description or say it while you are showing us the colour in your videos please because that would also be a great help for us to get the colours if we need them,thank you so very much for everything you teach us you are definitely a inspiration to my artwork journey 💙

[@MarkJRatcliffeArt]

@@CherylCampbell-fx1ybyep that’s it 👍🏻 Unfortunately not, I won’t be putting the ref numbers on as that will be too time consuming and I feel I give a lot of info on all my videos. ❤

[@CherylCampbell-fx1yb]

@@MarkJRatcliffeArt thank you so very much for all your help I really appreciate everything that you do and I have found the colours I now need and I can completely understand that it’s very time consuming and you do give a lot of information out when you do your videos which is amazing and you are always there to help us out if we ask a question ,you actually take the time to answer us which is good enough because a lot of artists just don’t help you out if you need help but you are just so wonderful and take time to reach out to your followers which is why I love to follow you,because I am able to get the help I need,so thank you very much for everything that you do and have taught me,you are a beautiful person 💙
