I begin with a dry primed black 18"x24" stretched canvas. 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 create wild winding overlapping patterns using white paint from a squeeze bottle ..I have a dish of many colors at the ready and after flattening and merging some of the white lines with a round-tipped silicone spatula I begin to add colors.  I use the smallest of my scoops and fill each with beautiful colors I choose from the surface of the container. I cover the center of every white line and like what I see. Some cells are forming patterns and some drips need surrounding with white paint using the bottle, a spatula is used and a  and a bamboo skewer too, dipped into paint to fill in any missing areas. Sorta simple technique but I like simple so I decide I am done.

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. 

Before each new painting session remixing the paint is necessary, 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.
