Скачать или смотреть Fluid Art Swipe: Transparent Base & Underpainting

Exploring fluid art layering with a transparent base and visible underpainting.
In this video, I continue my experiment using Owatrol Floetrol as a transparent base for fluid art and acrylic pouring, applied on top of a canvas that I already painted with paddle brushes. As long as I’ve been working with paint, I’ve been obsessed with layers, transparency, and depth, and in this piece I try to push that even further by combining different techniques.

My earlier exploration with paddle brushes now takes a new direction, by combining it with fluid art swipes and acrylic pouring techniques. I’m curious to see where this experiment with layering, transparent bases, and fluid art will lead me next.

Whether you're here to learn more about fluid art techniques or simply enjoy the soothing process of paint in motion, I hope this video inspires you!

What I used for the underpainting:

60 x 60 cm canvas
Liquitex Free-Style Paddle Brushes
Masking tape
Soft pastel pencil white
Amsterdam matte acrylic medium

Liquitex Fluid Acrylics
Mars Black
Ttanium White

Tri-Art Liquid Acrylics
Viridian Hue

What I used for the pour:

Owatrol floerol for the transparant base

The colors I used (heavy body or regular acrylic paint):

Talens Art Creation Titanium White
Golden Turquoise (Phthalo)
Tri-Art Interference Turquoise
TLP Prehnite
Golden Titan Green Pale
Eye Candy Pigments Macaw Blue Green
TLP Abalone
Golden Viridian Green Hue
TLP Gilded

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 if needed.

I first wet my PIGMENTS with a little GOLDEN GAC100 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 a bit of Gloss Gel and 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 for swipes). 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!
