How to Make a Flower With Acrylic Pour 'Skins'

#acrylicpouring #fluidart #bloomswipe #abstract #swipe #embellishedart
Hi guys! Thank you so much for being here ❤️
Today I am trying something a little different! My first attempt at making acrylic pour 'skins' to create an art piece with. I cut out my petal shapes with normal small scissors freehand. I arranged the petals in my desired shape on the silicone mat, then sprayed with gloss varnish so they would stick together. To attach to my canvas I applied Jo Sonja gloss varnish sparingly to the back.
Head over to Rain & Pours channel to see his amazing video where he made a black cockatoo with acrylic skins, link here • Amazing Animals - #1 B...
Pillow/Base:
British Paints Interior Low Sheen house paint in White, nothing added.
Colours:
Background:
#tlp Rose Quartz
Golden Interference Gold
Skin:
TLP Sangria
TLP Afterglow
TLP Athena
TLP Sequins
TLP pigments, silicone stir sticks and silicone pour mats can be purchased from fluid-art.co/
Matisse Aqua Green Light
Pebeo Iridescent Precious Gold
My pigments and tube paints are mixed with untinted (neutral) gloss house paint (water based) and Jo Sonja gloss varnish. In some countries you may need 'Deep Base' you're looking for one without any (or a very small amount) of titanium white, or it will make your colours pastel.
Please see video #92 for how I mix my colours (both pigments and tubes).
• (92) How I Mix My Pain...
Cell Activators (CA):
Amsterdam Titanium White and Atelier Titanium White (equal parts of each)
Atelier Paynes Grey
These were mixed with Australian Floetrol, no silicone was added or any other oils.
I never measure ratios, I mix until it leaves a slight trace when drizzled from around an inch above the surface. If I had to take a guess on the ratio it would be 2:1 or 2.5:1 (Floetrol to paint).
My embellishing pens were bought from Amazon www.amazon.com.au/gp/product/...
I did also embellish one of the petals with a black Posca pen.
I'm working on a 14'' MDF wood round from Mojo Flow Art, to purchase contact mojoflowart.com.au/pages/cont...
The rounds are a great quality with a really nice routed edge.
My style has changed and evolved dramatically since I took the Sheleeart E-Course and I can't recommend it enough!
If you too would like to evolve your art and find your own style using knowledge gained from taking the course, head over to sheleeart.com.au/ and use my discount code of sheleeart15NDA to receive a 15% discount from the E-Course.
Add the code in the box where it says 'coupon code'
Once joined you will get access to the private Sheleeart Facebook group where Shelee hosts regular live video classes, your learning will be unending! The course is currently in the process of being upgraded and thus there will be a price increase, so get in quick before then as you will also receive access to all the new classes.
Please subscribe to my channel (it's free), also hit the thumbs up button (if you like it) and share the video with your friends. Please try and watch the entire video, I try and always keep my videos under 20 minutes. I have a tip jar, it's definitely not expected, but if you'd like to tip any small amount would be greatly appreciated and will go towards buying more paint supplies. Thanks in advance it's: paypal.me/Nikidfluidart
My lazy susan is glass and 20'' which was purchased from Coles supermarket, they can also be sourced from variety/dollar stores and on Amazon. The heavier the spinner, the easier it will spin, I'd also suggest you get the largest one you can so you can easily use it for larger substrates too.
My metal spatulas are artist palette knives, they can be purchased from fluid-art.co/ or independent art stores.
