Acrylic Pour 43 - Experimental Beauty
Paint brands, pigments and recipe listed below!
This was just an experiment with a flip cup color combo. I have been running into problems with my yellow (Hansa Yellow medium) taking over my paintings. I chose it because it is one of the least dense pigments but I am starting to think I need a denser yellow. It also is not the most attractive hue of yellow. So I had this color combo that I was working with and I needed to try different combos and orders to see how the flip cup would look. 
Four cups left to right / 1 through 4;
1st cup (far left)=
-white
-dark turquoise
-teal
-white
-brown
-yellow ochre
-yellow
2nd cup=
-white
-teal
-white
-brown
-yellow ochre
3rd cup= 
-white
-teal
-brown
-yellow
-yellow/white
4th cup (far right)=
-white
-dark teal
-teal
-white
-brown
-yellow/white
Results were inconclusive. Though I liked the 2nd cup outcome the most, there was no real control and too many variables. The panel sat around in my studio for a month and I finally decided to further experiment with it by trying my RESIN layer technique on it. I am not sure it is complete, as I might add more layers of resin and even more drawing but I wanted to share my results so far. 
***DISCLAIMER - Work in a well-ventilated area, wear gloves and if the resin manufacturer recommends a respirator, wear it! ****
