20240904 Acrylic Pouring Fluid Art Swipes - This color palette, it's unbelievable how beautiful!!!

Hi!

Not many words....just a beautiful painting today!!!
Enjoy!!

See you soon x Suzan



How I make my BASE:

Talens Art Creation Titanium White and Owatrol floetrol (1:3 minimal water added). I do this in portions (cups) of 35 grams of Titanium White and 105 grams of Owatrol, and usually add 5 grams of water. I make larger stocks of this, and always try to let it rest for at least 2 days so that it has fewer air bubbles

The COLORS I used:

TLP Brûlée
TLP Honeycomb
TLP Sangria
TLP Athena
Golden QNAG
Golden Transparent Brown Oxide
Golden Van Dyke Brown
Amsterdam Expert Permanent Red Violet
Pebeo Iridescent Precious Gold

I MIX MY COLORS also with Owatrol floetrol. Ratio depends on the pigmentation and thickness of the paint, also a very small amount of water added for consistency, but slightly thinner than the base.

I first wet my PIGMENTS with a little JoSonja varnish until I have a paste. Then I add a small scoop of binder (Caparol). I also use Owatrol as PM with the pigments and that is not paint. It therefore lacks the binding. And I personally don't like it when colors become 'runny'. So that's how I solve it. Then I also add Owatrol floetrol to this, I do that by eye, in the same consistency as the other colours.

I make my CELL ACTIVATOR with acrylic paint and Australian floetrol (1:2). I used Amsterdam Titanium White here. For the Gold cell activator I mix two different types of Gold. I use Golden Bright Gold and Amsterdam Deep Gold (1:3 approximately). Because Amsterdam works well, and Golden to make the color more beautiful!

I first started with flip cups and open cups. I then went all out on the Flower Dips (with the bottle bottom and a paper napkin). Next I made straight pours for more than half a year. The Wandering pours were my favorite! Since the beginning of 2024, I have started working with 'cell activators' and learned how to swipe. I will continue to do that, I expect, there are so many possibilities!
