Acrylic Pour Painting- Double Dirty Landscape Pour One Year Anniversary.

Hi paint pouring people today is March 12 2018. What does that mean? Well, it was one year ago today that I uploaded my first paint pouring video to YouTube and For years. I always knew I was going to be teaching painting. I've been painting a long time but I Needed a catalyst and the catalyst was when I started pouring paint and I started joining in with other people who were trying to figure out these techniques and I noticed that people were struggling with their dirty pores They were coming out muddy and I came up with this idea of a way to keep colors separate So I put in two colors side by side that look look good side by side, but they don't really mix That was the catalyst for my first video This was the painting that I showed that day It's this is a good example of red and green They get kind of muddy in fact you can see where these two colors met They start to get what you know what I'll call muddy start to gray out I like what happened here, but if this whole painting was like that it wouldn't be nearly as interesting We've come a long ways in a year These paintings up here are some ones that I did a year one year ago year ago March ish All around the same time and There they were all the double dirty landscape for what I'm going to do today To commemorate this is I'm going to do another double dirty landscape for and I haven't done one of these in a while We'll see what the changes are how things have improved. I know all of you have improved It's been a mate. It's been an amazing one-year journey since I started my youtube channel and of course I was pouring prior to that But it's been really interesting, and I'm here because of you guys Let me get started on this new pour today, and here's something that I wasn't doing a year ago Is putting a white layer down first? So I'm gonna do that today. I don't do this every single time, but when you're doing a lot of tilting It helps to have something down Because it helps your color Slide around without having to work so hard at it and losing cells So here's some white, it's just pouring medium and white acrylic paint no silicone Now I'm gonna make a dirty pour I've got Some green in here already Add a different green And another green And I always like to add some white makes for interesting dirty pour Now here goes the red So I'm keeping these colors in the same family. They're reddish. This is more of a pinky red, and then here's some actual pink So you've got the same family of colors Add some white These are 10 ounce cups. They're not quite full, but again my wet white background is going to help Spread this around so here we go the double dirty pour you do it at the same time This is a long canvas. It's a 16 by 20, so I'm Helping this pour out instead of just dumping it in the middle. I'm Helping it in advance To spread out so we want to reach all four corners Here goes the tilting See my landscape is more abstract today That's okay, maybe it's a big red mountain all I need to do is cover this corner, and that's gonna be good So here we are this is this came out again. You never know what's gonna happen. This was not what I expected I was thinking of a the horizon line coming this way and again I'm calling this a double dirty landscape pour not to be confused with more recent videos where I've done Landscapes where I where I do swiping and I create a sky etc. This is more of it of a generic term You've got sort of a horizon line. This one is really wild. It's it's way different than any of the others. I've done interesting though And then of course there's always a corner that didn't get covered so if you have any paint left over Feel free to hit that corner So what I was doing a year ago was pouring With no silicone you can see there's more cells in this one because I've started using silicone since then Lots of cells coming up on their own No torching you don't need anything just just tilt and Get what you get Cover this corner See I dripped a little red there, I'm not gonna worry about it. It's just a fun part of what happens when you're working Remember perfect is not the goal again this red dot drip that I dripped in there is is a great example of that There's no rules I'm just going with your with your instincts, and you're gonna see what happens So I hope you'll give this double dirty landscape for a try one year later And you know I can't wait to see what the next year brings there are so many people doing such great work now Other YouTube creators believe me. I know who they are there's some really great YouTube creators out there doing pours Showing us new techniques sharing. There's wonderful Facebook groups in fact the first very first Facebook group for Pouring was let it flow, and I want to give a shout out to Kaylee Bender for starting that group There were 300 members when I joined in 2016 and I couldn't believe there were other people trying to figure out how to pour paint and try to learn these techniques and Together all of us are working on this. We're still working on this to this day. We're sharing techniques It's become a great great movement in art like nothing that I have ever seen before and I've been an artist my whole life I'm really excited about our journey and again It's it's because of you guys that I'm still here doing videos Every week, and I really appreciate your support you have supported me on PayPal.
