This helps make my studio usable for an indoor working/teaching/gallery space.

In Part 1 I began with a 16"x20" stretched canvas. I used paint colors that are all pre-mixed with additives to help them flow more easily. I create a large dirty pour "reservoir" /container of colors with one tiny spritz of Blaster silicone added. I spread a layer of white paint with a silicone spatula. The layer of paint facilitated all the paint I added next to flow more easily.  I use a spoon to dip into the mix of colors and scoop them out onto the canvas where I want them. I use a controlled tilt of the canvas to allow the paint to roll across the canvas where to I want it. I add more colors and manipulate them using a   bamboo skewer to make adjustments until I'm happy.

My "pouring" mixture or "recipe" is simple and starts with 2 parts(estimated) GAC800 from "Golden" added into any acrylic paint color 8 parts (amounts are always estimated).  This starts the mixing process. Mix the paint and GAC 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, add a marble and shake your paints every time before you use them. 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. 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.
