Using a 16 "x20" canvas I add a layer of white paint that will allow the paint added on top of it to flow more easily. In a large measuring cup, I use many colors adding a white layer between most. I pour 9 rings on the canvas and proceed to tip the canvas to spread the rings as best I can, covering most of the voids. When I feel I have allowed the rings to flow and merge together and after catching paint along the edges and pushing the puddle back into the pattern I stop and fill whatever canvas is left showing with more paint from my squeeze bottles and push it in place with a small silicone spatula and a bamboo skewer. All the paints I use are acrylic paints mixed with additives to help them flow more easily. All my colors are stored and mixed in squeeze bottles for ease of use. I advise a well-ventilated room and those with respiratory issues to avoid or use a respirator.A propane torch is cautiously passed over the surface of the canvas to release any air in the paint that might result in bubbles forming while the artwork dries or leaving pockmarks if left to pop on their own. Warming the paint will also often encourage patterns to emerge because the paint in combination with the Floetrol used in my pouring mix encourages cells to form.

My regular "pouring" mixture -recipe, generally is 3/4 Floetrol with 1/4 (estimated) GAC800 from "Golden" (prevents cracking and adds shine to dry artwork.) Add paint to double the volume or less as needed to get the desired viscosity, mix thoroughly. Amounts always depend on the viscosity and color saturation of the acrylic paint used, so the amounts of color needed will vary. I like to begin with half pouring mixture and half color. After that is mixed thoroughly, I add more pouring mixture until the viscosity (thickness) is like warm hone. If I want it thinner, I add more Pouring mixture. If the color is not strong enough, I add more pigment. When mixing colors, my amounts are always estimated and then altered to get the right consistency I like. I use plastic squeeze bottles with measurements on the side. I add a marble into the bottle to aid in the mixing process. Marbles work well but exercise caution if you end up with more than one because they will shatter in the mixture eventually. It's imperative (Important) that all mixture be shaken thoroughly again before using in any session every time! The consistency is usually medium "body" weight, but other weights are usable with minor adjustments.

Every day I learn new things. I will never stop experimenting, and I am happy to share what I discover with you.
