ACRYLIC POURING WORLD - YOUTUBE CHANNEL

We have started a youtube channel to serve as a platform for all acrylic pouring artists and different acrylic pouring styles and techniques. The idea is to showcase artists from around the world who do not have a channel to show their paintings on. We also plan to do spotlights on popular artists and compilations on the different acrylic pouring techniques.

Here is the video teaser:

Acrylic Pouring World: DRYING vs CURING

Acrylic Paint Pouring:  Drying vs Curing

There are two very different stages that occur when acrylic paint is drying.  We have the ‘drying stage’ and the ‘curing stage’.

Acrylic Pouring Basic Materials

For the many people starting out in this trending art form, we have a visual chart for most of the materials needed.  We also have a check list which you can print out and a short description on the materials needed.

The following check list is a more comprehensive and easy tool to check that you have most of the basic supplies to start acrylic pouring.

Acrylic Pouring Paint Calculator - Online Tool

Worried that you might not have enough paint for your pour, or maybe too much paint on your canvas ?  One of my favourite acrylic pouring artists, Olga Soby, has created the perfect tool for this – the online Acrylic Pouring Paint Calculator.

This tool calculates in inches and centimeters for rectangular, square and round canvases.  How cool is that !  Before using the calculator make sure to read the whole article which explains the different factors affecting the amount of paint needed, namely, the pouring technique you plan on doing, if you plan on applying a base layer and the consistency of the paint.

PRACTICAL ADVICE FOR BEGINNERS

Here is some very practical advice from a fellow artist Donna Wesson Trull.  You can check out Donna's FB page here:

1. Want to save money on your pours?

2. Canvases piling up and you don't know what to do?

3. Don't have a lot of room for drying paintings?

4. Feel like giving up cause pouring isn't as easy as you thought it would be?

5. Why don't your pours look as good as everyone else's?

If this is you here's the answers to ALL your pouring problems. Yes I said ALL!
