Varying paint weights is key to many acrylic pour techniques

[@ArtWithMarc]

This is why you're killing it. I've seen others attempt to explain this but they didn't come anywhere close to this level of clarity.

Well now I know why my yellow keeps vanishing. I've been working upside down. Another very helpful video, thanks so much.

[@LeftBrainedArtist]

Yellow is also tricky because a lot of yellows are transparent which makes them disappear even more. You can try mixing in some titanium white (just a bit) to help them be a bit more opaque too.

[@ants_in_my_eyes_Wilson]

Love this. The entire reason I initially fell in love with paint pouring was because it seems to have limitless potential, manipulating the physics of pigment densities interacting with one another, creating beautiful art as a result. Not just left brained art, but left AND right brained art... lol

[@LeftBrainedArtist]

I totally agree! And I want to paint out to anyone that reads this that you CAN do pouring. Some people it comes more naturally but you can totally learn, and I think that learning is much easier than traditional drawing or painting. At least that is by far the case for me.

[@skbennett5761]

Oh, I'm right on board here! This is an intellectual type of art, which I once heard referred to as "post-modern cellism!" I'm into quantum mechanics. Every aspect of this style brings my world into better focus while pondering the endless possibilities.

I'm going to start looking at the densities of my paint so i can experiment with this phenomenon. Thank you so much.

[@LeftBrainedArtist]

Excellent. Seems we are alike in that way. The WHY is so important.

[@lynwalsh5974]

Hooray! Someone who puts art in terms of science that I can understand and run with. Art is so airy-fairy. I like to understand why things happen so I have some degree of control over the outcome and hopefully fail less 😂. Not that it’s wrong just to play around with paint but it can be very expensive. Thank you!

I am with you 100% Lyn. That is the real reason I started this channel.

[@lynwalsh5974]

@@LeftBrainedArtist so glad you did! Maybe you have an easy answer to another problem I can’t yet resolve. Using artist’s loft white and water base paint and tube colours/water colour paints and Dutch pour technique on both canvas and tiles, the white gradually creeps over the colours, leaving little patches of colour. I’m getting loads of lacing and cells. Consistency is the same for all mixes and runny enough to blow out with mouth or hairdryer. I’m happy to keep wasting paint but if you can suggest a solution it’ll save me time and materials. Maybe the white should be a little less viscous ( thin and thick are such ambiguous terms in fluid art)? The problem was even worse when I mixed in Floetrol

@@LeftBrainedArtist I’ve already been through my paints and worked out their numbers. Not sure how you assess when they have mixed pigments, one high and one low, when white is added for example. I would imagine the percentage of the white is low, if it has just made the colour lighter, would you go for the lower number then?
