In part one I used fluid acrylics to create" planets" on the underside of circular plastic container lids. Part two shows the  16"x 20" dry previously gessoed mat black gesso-ed canvas ready to add planets and then starts. I show the tool I created to make the stars 9bamboo skewers attached to the outside of crayons using the points dipped into paint. I  adhere to the planets using a layer of black gesso that adheres the planets stuck down like glue. The gesso is the same black gesso used to prime the canvas. 
My "pouring" mixture or "recipe" is simple and starts with 2 parts (estimated) G.A.C 800 from "Golden" added into any acrylic paint color 8 parts (amounts are always estimated). This starts the mixing process. Mix the paint and G.A.C thoroughly. Next, I add my mixed Floetrol and (half) Deco-Art pouring medium. (Shake it first every time!)The truth is, lately, that's my go-to. I add the same (or more) ounces as the first two ingredients and mix everything thoroughly. The consistency is usually medium "body" weight, but other weights are usable with minor adjustments. 
To mix, if you use squeeze bottles as I do, adding a glass marble helps mix the paint when you shake your paints before each painting session.

 All my acrylic paints are mixed in advance and contained and stored in squeeze bottles. 

If you are not using squeeze bottles, I suggest using a container that has a lid. I have often used the 4oz size plastic deli containers, and the paint keeps for a long time in them, but you still will have to stir before using the mix again because the Floetrol and other flow agents will rise to the top between uses. None of my acrylic paint has any added silicone. To create the pearlescent effects seen in most of my artworks, I use "Golden's" Iridescent pearl "Fine" added to colors. By "eye" until I am pleased with what I see.

 Every day I learn new things. I will never stop experimenting, and I am happy to share what I discover with you. To see finished wet and dry versions of all my Youtube demonstration artworks for sale, visit my Expressionist Art Studio Gallery Fans and Collectors group on Facebook
