Artists
Related: About this forumTried acrylic pour painting for the very first time.
I hope to get better as I go along and learn more.
Working on small 5x7 budget cradled boards until I learn what Im doing and then I might try something larger.
I feel with abstract work, more of my spirit or subconscious comes out.
Have you guys tried this technique? Its really fun.
I think pour paintings are also done with watercolors sometimes, where you block out your whites ahead of time and pour the paint onto the paper.

(76,736 posts)Art therapy is pretty much all process based, with the presumption that the art form is an autonomous entity wishing to create through us. Great stuff!

(76,736 posts)When I studied Art Therapy there.
She has written some fabulous books about the process:
Art is a Way of Knowing
And
Art is a Spiritual Path.
The 1st one is basically the master of art therapy method.
Enjoy!

(11,467 posts)See I am using too much paint with the pouring mixture. I will make an adjustment when I try a second time!

(26,666 posts)He was always artistic. But after he retired, he really got into doing abstract art on big masonite panels. He bought latex houseplant and would pour the paint onto the panels and let it flow wherever it wanted. My brother and I now have several hundred of these!
