Acrylic Pour Painting- The Swirl _Ring Pour Technique--You Just Can't Stop!.

Hi paint pouring people today, I'm going to do the swirl technique. It's fun. It's easy. It's simple and Us paint pouring people should never be bored because there's always something you can try. This is a fun one There's only I like to say there's no rules But there's a couple of rules on this one that will help make a better pattern one of them is there's no silicone in my paint mix and And Number two is I'm using high contrast colors in this case. I'm gonna go as high contrast as I can It's gonna be black and white and then I'm gonna throw in some turquoise So let's get started and I'll show you what I'm talking about here I have a 12 by 12 canvas and I have my colors already and I'm gonna make a dirty pour I'm gonna start out with black Some turquoise And then some white That's enough for now I can always make more if I need it and now what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna put the same white On my canvas. This is going to be a wet white background what it does it it helps your pour slide around It gives it more of a slick surface. That's all it does. That's the only reason I'm doing this is because it helps Your pour grow on its own Doesn't need to be a lot but it needs to be enough where it will stay wet for the duration. I Have a tendency to overdo it. So I'm going back and making sure it's not too deep of a pool Always remember what your tendencies are All right It's wet. It's smeared around Clean my hand off a little bit Now here's my dirty pour I'm gonna do this world technique I put this in a paper cup because I like to be able to pinch the paper Plastic cups don't do this. It's not critical to have a paper cup. But if I have them, I like to use them I'm gonna start out right in the middle Let it come out for a minute. Now. I'm gonna start going in a circle Constant circle in the same place You can see right now that it's turquoise and black coming out The white will come out later But I'm staying steady Staying in the center and I'm letting these rings Pattern develop and see how they're spreading on their own. That's where the white background helps Make that happen Just take your time Now the whites finally coming out Creating some rings of its own You can stop at any time. I'm gonna keep going So I have plenty to spread around I'm gonna stop right there I'm gonna tilt it Just gently I'm not gonna go over the whole Canvas, I'm gonna do a partial coverage here with this big one You can see I still got cells even though there's no silicone in it I'm just gonna tilt it around until I Get it spread out But not total spread, all right, I'm gonna let it tilt over the side Just tilt it till you see Something you like. Okay, I'm gonna stop right there Now what's gonna happen is I'm gonna make I Still have paint left in this, but I think I'm gonna set it aside and Start a new one Again, I have a smaller paper cup. I'm gonna use more white Since this is primarily black. I'm gonna use more white in this one I'm gonna make little little mini swirls here Let me stir it just slightly so some of this black comes up Point in my cup It looks different every time you do this This one is more subtle because you got primarily white but you can see the black rings coming out See in this case the white came out first And I want to show you something else. I'm gonna I'm gonna pour Right in the center here. See there's no rules as far as this goes I'm gonna make something in the middle here. You just do it. See this is kind of fun now. I'm liking this This little ring here is I'm liking this the best of all Okay I'm gonna do Another small one. I'll add some turquoise Some more white Whatever black is left over in the cup. I'm gonna fill up some more space here This is a nice pattern The trick is to get More than one color coming out at once and when you first start pouring you tend to get the whatever colors rising at the top Comes out and then it starts coming out More more than one at once. So here we go. There's a little bit of black showing Very these are these are small details. I think these types of things might be best on a small painting because of the Small detail aspect of it now I can tilt some and see what happens Move things around some What I'm gonna do I'm gonna do another black and white just while we're on a roll I Got a new cup for this I'm gonna I'm gonna straddle the the edge here That's a really nice pattern I'm gonna keep going with this one because I like what's happening. If you don't like what's happening you can stop And if you do like what's happening you can keep going Until you run out of paint or until it just turns solid Now I'm gonna try something. I haven't tried before just for fun. Well, I have this going I'm going to try a more elliptical. I haven't done this. So we'll see if anything happens here as opposed to just circular these circles are gonna distort anyway, but Let's see what happens when I intentionally Distort it So you could go on and on with this I'm gonna leave this as a partial coverage. There's a lot of white space around here. I kind of like that Makes it a little different than the ones where you tilt and do full coverage. I still have some nice Pattern going over the edge on two sides, which is good. I Could let these run over the side. I think I'm gonna leave it like that. It's kind of a space Odyssey looking thing to me so There you go. It's really easy. Just remember no silicone See, I still got some cells coming up even though I had no silicone in it Some of the patterns on these smaller ones broke up It'll change over time and then you'll get some of these smaller ones. They seem to hold their little circular pattern better So give it a try. It's it's like a science experiment. It's a lot of fun I did when I first started doing these I couldn't stop I did a whole bunch of them So, I hope you like this video I hope this gives you some inspiration to try this swirl technique and If you like my videos, I hope you'll consider supporting my channel.
