“Immersed” 30x48” cloud over pearl flip cup. Big bold commission!

Hello and welcome back! This is an Acrylic Pouring tutorial using the base ideas of puddle pouring with thin paint consistency, I’m using a split color base coat, flip cup, and adding a cloud over technique I’ve been working on. Using a cloud mix to come over back on top of a painting has been so joyful for me, it’s so fun! ✨Recipes all below✨

@@SaraTaylor I agree. I follow a mile long list of artists. I’m not just a fluid artist but an artist in general. Fluid art is my favorite because it washes away the stress and emotions of the day better than any painting or drawing I could do!!

[@barbaralotter1095]

This is an absolutely magnificent pour. Your composition is fantastic and you definitely are an artist. At first I thought it might be too dark but you knew exactly where to add things to lighten and to give interest to this painting. Well done and I am sure the new owner will be so pleased with this.

[@mariannehansen5536]

I love all your work, but I just keep coming back to this one, I don't know how many times I have watched this video, this painting is just so wonderful! ❤❤❤

[@leonardcain]

Gorgeous with a lot going on texturally... I’ve found that using this level of paint consistency placing the flip cups more randomly around the canvas instead of “ lined up” allows greater tilting control of designs that are unfolding...Txz so for sharing, jeanne

[@HopeDesigns]

Beautiful Sara! I don't love when clouds totally dominate a piece with no interest or contrast, but you always do a great job balancing that so well! I still need to try this technique ❤ -Mandy

Amen to that Carol! Being stuck home with no socializing or traveling or anything is very hard with small children! Art is so good for the soul, I think it saves us all some days. Even my little toddlers get down on the floor and get messy with paint! I think the spring will be better.✨🙏

[@lorriesheppard3220]

You posted this 2 hours ago and you have 50 comments already! You know I love all of your work, I can’t even explain properly how much I love this one! It’s perfect! It is my all-time Sara Taylor favorite! You have found the perfect balance between chemistry and artistry. I actually laughed out loud when you flipped the cups and immediately went right for one of the corners. No hesitation, on such a large canvas! It was glorious! As always, I’ve been on this journey with you. I have my first public exhibition on February 4th. I hope you don’t mind, but I will be using colors very similar, techniques well learned from you, and your spirit to guide me as I attempt to create a center piece that is, hopefully, just like this one. Perfect! Balanced and serene. When I saw it I felt such joy! That’s it!, I thought. That’s the one to shoot for. Thank you! I am hopeful that someday, after all of last year and the way it affected me and so many others, that I will be able to repay your kindness. Know that until that time, I paint and live with kindness. Oh and, you are going to have one happy customer! Wonderful work!

[@sherrycooksley5196]

Stunning! Love it!! How do you keep the middle of the canvas from sagging from weight of paint? Thanks for sharing your knowledge btw.

[@SaraTaylor]

Hi Sherry! One of the beauties about thin paint is that it’s not very heavy, there’s not a huge layer on the canvas so it doesn’t really sag. I did make sure to spray the back with water and use a blow dryer to get it nice and tight.👍
