Pouring Medium:

I am using Mix Pour as my pouring medium, you can order some by emailing Krista at [email protected]

I layer my cup carefully down the side, going heavier on the Deep Sapphire but using the Pearl and Aquamarine to break up the darker. colors.
I pour into a puddle of Bronze and then put down my flow extender. I tilt it to cover the canvas, and although there are some beautiful fingerings the composition is not very exciting.. so I decide to pour it again. I layer my cup again, this time going heavier with the pearl and Aquamarine instead of with the Deep Sapphire. I pour it again and immediately am happier with what's happening, much more contrast so the colors really pop!
If you are not happy with your pour look at it like a road map and recreate what you like and take out what you don't. It's better to pour it again and end up with a piece you love!
