Acrylic Fluid Painting
Techniques
Acrylic dye manufacturers get developed a Broad reach of compatible products that lend themselves chipper to both traditional and experimental techniques. You can cause great glazes in the style of the ancient masters or striving contemporary applications and techniques for summary or other delineation styles. By reason of the individual gels, mediums, additives and other substances can all be intermixed, and owing to they are all water-soluble, an nearly infinite area of possibilities are available.
Glazing
Glazing is a also gray habitude of building up jewel-like colours and convincing atmospheric item using thin layers of translucent applications of gloss. Glazing creates a richness not available to opaque emulsion, since it allows the hoary of the ground or underpainting to glowing buttoned up the translucent stain. Dilute some whitewash with saturate and, worthier, a minor medium. You will see complicated swirls and whorls form that you could not duplicate with a brush.
Dripping
Dripping paint was around way before Jackson Pollock.Use either a preformulated fluid acrylic, or create your own by mixing tube paint with acrylic medium and water. Adjust for opacity and viscosity by adding more paint or medium as necessary. Place the canvas horizontally on a table or floor. Pour directly onto the canvas, and manipulate the paint by lifting up edges of the canvas to direct the flow. This will give you a more even coating than pushing it around with a brush, which can leave brush marks and lighter areas. Experiment with interesting fluid dynamics by pouring two or more colors onto different areas of the canvas and letting them flow into each other. Acrylic gloss medium works fit for this and Testament add a sheen to the emulsion. You can handle the colouring layer by layer, letting each layer dry, or put on slightly more opaque paint and rub it off with a rag.
Pouring
Pour paint directly onto the canvas to receive an even dispersion of paint.Mix up some paint with medium or water. You can use an acrylic tar gel to give the paint a ropey quality. Punch some holes in a paint can, and drip the paint onto a painting lying flat. Dip the brush in the liquid paint and drip it or toss it onto the canvas. Pour directly out of a container in a steady stream to create longer strings of paint.
