Jewels of the Sky! A Hummingbird Inspired Jewel Colored Comb Wrecked Ring Pour! AMAZING!

Acrylic Pouring Painting Comb Wrecked Ring Pour Jewel Colors Amazing 24K Gold Emerald Cells

Hello Friends!

My family and I were watching a program about Hummingbirds on Curiosity Stream the other day and the brilliant sparkling greens and blues of their plumage was so incredible to see, especially in high definition.. I was totally excited and inspired and couldn't wait to go paint!!
This is the link to the show if you are curious 😉

My Pouring Medium is:
Liquitex Gloss Medium & Varnish
Paint + a bit of Water
Floetrol

I keep my colors on the thicker side, especially my Gold. I layer the cup carefully down the side then pour a Ring Pour.
This is a 24x30 canvas, so I want a little more paint.. so I add more paint to my cup and pour it in the center of the last pour, enlarging it.
I make sure that my flow extender is thin (sinking, not forming a mound) and then I put the flow extender around the pour and on the corners and smooth it out to cover the blank part of the canvas.

I use one of the Pozilon combs (3 skinny tines) to first attempt a bird silhouette, but it doesn't look like a bird lol. I do another few wrecks around the perimeter and then tilt to spread out the pour.

There are some gorgeous parts to this piece.. the center seems to be glowing almost, and looks very floral. The wrecked parts look almost like hummingbird beaks going into the center of a flower to me. There are some amazing gold rings around the perimeter, with that sparkling purple and then some incredibly sparkling Emerald Green..with 24K gold cells inside..! On the other side there is a section of Prussian blue with gold cells and some amazing veins of purple.. really cool!! I may not have gotten a hummingbird but the colors seem pretty close!

I'm really happy with this piece, in the sunlight its so sparkly and shimmery!

I love that the ring pour center is tight and intact.. I like the location of the wrecked parts but I wish I had used a different comb, the 3 tines feels skinny, I would have liked more tines.

This one was really fun, it was so exciting seeing all those amazing sparkling jewel colors together!
