579. How to Make a Beach Painting That Glows at Night!

#bloomtechnique #fluidart #bloomblowout

Hi all! Dive into the creation of a midnight beach scene with this acrylic painting! This fluid art tutorial showcases the process of achieving a glowing ocean artwork. Watch as I demonstrate each step, from the paint pouring to tilting the canvas to achieve an abstract effect. I was so inspired by the fluid art beach scene I created last week that I decided to make it a series and go bigger each time! I'll be changing the colors slightly; this week I added some TLP pigments for some sparkle! This 18x24 turned out gorgeous and I'm excited to go bigger! Don't forget to check out my newly redesigned website, and thanks so much for watching! See you at the beach hahah!!

My newly redesigned website is up!!!, It has a new section called The Closet Collection--all those tiny pieces of art on 4", 5" and 6" canvases--the kind that make perfect little gifts and stocking stuffers! There will be new larger pieces too--never before seen art that I created with the camera off, plus some experimental mixed media pieces. Please check it at at https://www.waterfallacrylics.com

THE RECIPE:

House Paint-base aka puddle for the substrate: Color To Go Tricorn Black from any Sherwin Williams store.

Pouring Medium aka PM Recipe: mix with all colors EXCEPT the cell activator color:

Sherwin Williams Infinity Base C In Semi-Gloss (Lowe's only) and Varathane Triple Thick Water-based Gloss Polyeurathane (Home Depot) mixed 2:1 ratio paint to varnish. Add small traces of water to thin if needed.

Use the colors and brands of your choice! These tutorials are meant to educate and inspire! Here's how to mix:

Pigments: For a 3 oz cup I add 1/2 teaspoon of pigment powder to the cup, then add enough gloss varnish (any brand; I use JoSonja gloss varnish) to cover the powder. Mix well until all pigment is thoroughly wet; then add the pouring medium; mix well. Recommend a Covid mask to mix.

For any brand fluid or high flow acrylics: I put 2 1/2 ounces of the pouring medium into a 3 ounce cup, then squirt in color until I reach my desired shade. Mix well.

For tube paint (medium or heavy body paint), I added an 1/2 ounce of paint (1/2 teaspoon) to a 3 ounce cup, then added 2 ounces of pouring medium. If still thick I add a squirt of Golden's High Flow Medium (thins and extends acrylic colors) OR water, and stir well.

Cell Activator/Color: Australian Floetrol + Amsterdam's Titanium White. 2 -1 ratio Australian Floetrol to paint.
