    Hello my Beautiful People! Welcome back to a gorgeous summer evening! Last week I did a pour inspired by my dear friend Fiona of Fiona Art, a split cup wandering straight pour called "Hammerhead in the Clouds". I want to play with this technique and get better at it, so tonight I am using two 12x12 canvases
    I am using a split cup from Tracie Reed Art, you can find them in her etsy shop using this link: www.etsy.com/s...
    I am using Mix Pour as my pouring medium. You can order Mix Pour by emailing Krista at Krista8974@gmail.com
    Colors:
    Golden
    Green Gold
    Van Dyke Brown
    Arteza
    Pearl Pistachio
    Artist Loft
    Metallic Cobalt Blue
    Pouring Medium:
    Mix Pour
    Water
    There is NO Silicone
    in Any of My Paint.
    I fill my split cup and pour it into a puddle of gold. Almost immediately I realize that my paint is actually too thick. When I drizzle it off the stick I want a mound on a mound but I want it to sink into the cup quickly. The paint tonight is making mounds but not really sinking and melting, its acting like soft serve ice cream and staying in these really beautiful spirals instead! Because the paint is thick it is not really doing what I want it to, but I still create an interesting design and tilt it out to cover the canvas. More on this canvas later..
    I wash out my cup and blow it with my leaf blower to make sure it is dry. My Husband of Awesomeness reminds me that I wanted to thin the paints out before filling the cup again, so I do thin out all my colors with a couple teaspoons of water.
    This time the paint pours out beautifully and I can see a gorgeous design emerging, like rolling ocean waves. I love it! This one is so pretty and much more in line with what I originally wanted that I decide to repour on the first canvas. I layer my Tracie Reed 6 oz Split Cup and pour into the middle of the first canvas. I instantly like this composition and am loving these colors!
    Some of the most important things I learned for these split cup straight pours are to hold the cup up fairly high, 6 to 10 inches off the canvas, and to pour it slowly. Its also important to not have too much paint on your canvas, else you might tip off some parts that you really like. Use a flow extender to help your pour slide easily and not eat its own composition.
    I really enjoyed both of these pours. I love the feathery look and those colors are wonderful together!

    Mina first time to your channel and been watching Fiona for a long time. Just felt the need to say. Job well done!!! 👏
    They both were great!!!
    If I had money I would buy the first one you poured & didn't like. It is one you can look at again & again and see something different each time! I cried when you poured over it!
    I do understand it wasn't what YOU were going for.
    Newbie here....never been creative before I am about to turn 59. My son & 3 granddaughters inspired me to try.....plus Fiona, Molly's artistry, Olga Soba,
    Rinske Douna have made me believe I can do it too!
    I am going to add you my list of artist women who are learning & teaching
    Women who are lifting each other up, being supportive not trying to COMPETE and tear each other down (too much of that is day to day life)
    But! But! The big reason I had to get on here is....
    The first one that was too thick.....can you try same
    Consistency in different shades of blues with a little white and see what happens! I think the thicker has a beautiful awesome look!!
    And I must sayyyyy
    I looove your back yard!!!
    BEAUTIFUL MINA SUPER
    AWESOME WOMAN!!
    SUBSCRIBING RIGHT NOW!
    REMEMBER sometimes your failures to you is beautiful art to someone else!! Thank you! 😊

    But I have to say that I also loved the first pouring with the thicker colores. I saw a satellite foto of three fingers from a mountain going down to a rocky area and ending up in juicy green gras.
