Acrylic Pouring
Anleitung No. 1640Individualism is wanted here!
The possibilities are manifold and the artist creates exciting colour gradients, cell formations and varied colour designs
Acrylic Pouring means that diluted Acrylic paint is poured on Stretched Canvas and by rotating and tilting the frame, colour gradients are created. The beauty of this theme is that successful results are guaranteed!
Tip: First of all, you should prepare your workplace: cover the table or provide an old container/box in which the Stretched Canvas fits. You should also provide cups, such as old yoghurt pots etc. or similar, on which the Stretched Canvas can be placed to allow it to dry. Put on disposable gloves and put on an apron.
Then we're ready to go: Mix approx. 30 g of stretcher frame paint with approx. 30 g Pouring Medium and approx. 2 g silicone oil. Mix each colour in an extra container.
Use a lemon squeezer, which you put on the Stretched Canvas place. Pour the colours slowly one after the other over the press so that the colours run slowly. When the paint stops flowing, lift up the lemon squeezer and put it aside
Now you can lift and swivel the Stretched Canvas and the colors will flow in the directions you rotate the Stretched Canvas . When you are satisfied with your gradient, let your Stretched Canvas dry for about 24 hours
Do you still want to gold-plate your Stretched Canvas ?
Then paint the regions with Gold leaf priming milk that you want to embellish with gold leaf . Place the gold leaf and let it dry. Then brush over the gold leaf with a dry brush so that excess gold leaf and protruding gold is removed.
Finally, brush your applied gold leaf with the coating lacquer and let it dry.
Ready is your masterpiece!
