******************************************************************************************
Today's Tutorial Information:
▶ Technique: Dutch Pour
▶ Pouring Medium formula: My paints are mixed with just water! Yes that's right... only a paint and water mixture. It's a 1:1 ratio - and I can do that because I'm using good quality paints with a good binder.
▶ Color Palette:
Amsterdam - pyrrole red, vermillion, nickel titan yellow, permanent green deep, brilliant blue, ultramarine violet. titanium white, lamp black.
Daler Rowney: Indigo
For the mandala I use a gloss gel by Pebeo.
▶ Hair dryer: When I use a hair dryer I use the Remington D3010 and always use the cool setting and the lowest blow speed.

I was trying to figure out what I could create for my son 38 and gay. This is it. Thank you Mark . ❤

I was skeptical at first, but adding the second layer of black and colors made such a HUGE difference! And putting that Mandela in the center......I am in love with it! Thank you and have a beautiful day. ❤

Mark, I can't find any words worthy enough to give you credits for this incredibly amazing piece!!!!! It's absolutely perfect, gives me American Natives vibes and it's touching my soul in a special way. This piece somehow is magical, I don't know how to describe it, but it feels like it's emitting lots of positive energy and looking at it makes me feel calm and relaxed on one hand, but excited / "fully charged" on the other hand. Absolutely gorgeous!!!! This is my new favourite painting. Great job and thanks for sharing 🖒💖
