Vortex Bloom in Purple, Yellow, Pink and Green - Experimental Acrylic Pouring

hi everyone welcome back to my art channel thanks for being here! I did in my previous video a blue Vortex painting and it gave me an idea for something different so that's what I'm going to do tonight. and I'll explain it as I'm pouring the paints out. but I'm excited to get started on this one so let's paint! all right so quickly I'll tell you what colors I'm using I have a primary magenta here I have a little bit of gold I took an Azo yellow medium and mixed it with white to make almost like a Naples yellow and I'll explain why in a second. I have a sap green that I actually mixed gold in with and then I have a blue violet that I again mixed a little bit of white in so these two colors here the um blue violet and the regular AO yellow or even lemon yellow any of those types of colors the ones that are super bright yellow they don't mix to a color I like but I find when I add a little bit of white um and tint it and lighten the color um they blend a lot better together and this really reminds me of kind of like a flower garden so I am excited to use these colors and I do have a little bit of white that I'm going to add in there as well I chose to do two darker colors a bright color and then the kind of more muted lighter yellow I chose gold um to Accent the yellows and the greens that were in the painting so there is kind of a a a rationale behind my color selection when I'm doing these I'm going to start and just pour the Outer Circle I may even blow that part out first and then I'm going to layer the inside and then blow it in almost like a feather-like shape around and I don't know if I'll complete it as a circle or simply just kind of have it start and spiral off this way so we're going to find out together I'm going to get to pour in the paints on I'm going to start so I'm going to start on the Outer Circle just start right here and then spiral out and get some on my edges like I did before and I'm just going to blow this part out first when I am doing paintings and you know new maybe not new in the world but new to me ideas come to me all the time when I'm doing this so it is really fun to like play around and experiment and one painting always leads me to another concept another idea which is really fun and the holidays are coming up so let me know if you have anything planned if you're already ready I am not ready but my husband works on Christmas um he has Thanksgiving off but he works on Christmas each year and so it's never really like and and my family's not here so it's never really like our biggest holiday but we are going to have a friends party friends Christmas party so that should be fun I'm going to save a little bit of that okay here comes my yellow the outside and I'm trying to take care not to get too much paint on here to blow it off because I still have my gold to come okay I think that's enough and I saved enough for my Center so I'm going to go ahead and blow out the gold I mean pour the gold and then I can blow this part out and I do want to have a pretty good amount of gold on the outside as well I don't know if this is gonna I don't know if this is going to work but it should be fun to see all right okay white is the last color maybe I could have done it all at at one time but I want to test it out first just seeing if I blow the outer edges and then come back in for the center so let me blow this part out for [Music] okay so I got so many cell reactions coming from the gold and the green that was mixed with the gold um they are so so pretty I just here let me show you those I mean all already you can see how beautiful look at that little corner right there oh my goodness I may have to use these colors in just a regular Dutch pore so many different look at that so many different reactions all right let's get back to the painting all right so now for my inside I'm going to I'm trying to think of what petals I want to be on the outside and I think I may start these with my magenta and then my purple I don't know how this is going to turn out y'all I I am in love with this outer section my green will go next might layer just a little bit onto the outside there and then my yellow will follow it up how is this going to turn out I don't know don't want too much in the center I'm going to have to blow from the center and blow some of those paints outward okay and then gold my gold is the last I still should have probably left a little bit of the canvas showing through but okay let me give it a torch and then we'll blow out this Center I am going to disrupt some of these beautiful cells that are along here but that's okay this is an experiment to see if this works and that's what I normally do I see if something works and then I try to hone in and try to get the reactions I want and the design that I want composition let's go [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] that was way harder than I thought it was going to be I still have this one spot of so I think I'm just going to kind of I want it to kind of swirl in on itself there okay all right so blowing these out was way harder than I thought it was going to be I like that it it goes off up there it's got motion down here there's tons of cells on the outside there's tons of Interest jury is still out I feel like I may blow this petal a little bit more to make it like an actual pedal I don't know what do we what do we think I think I'm going to have to let this one dry and see what it looks like yeah I think I'm going to have to let it dry and see I feel like even in here I feel like it needs to come around a little bit more but this was my first try at it I love the colors all right I'll show show you up close Okay so the more I look at it the more I am liking it but it needs it needs work and I know some of the things that I need to do it was the way I blew out the center and the way I I blew out these petals that absolutely makes a difference for this for this one and also I think I want to use just blue violet instead of the lighter purple if I do this color combination again but this has so many details so many things to look at it's just really really cool and I think it's going to dry that green is going to dry darker and those dark spots of purple will dry darker and there will be some more contrast I might fix my Center just a little bit more but super fun to EXP experiment with this one so I'll show you how it dries and then I'll see any if there's any more edits I would do if you were trying this this technique is so much harder than it seems and I'm getting there I am going to try a few more I have more ideas and I read through your comments and I will try this with a spinner but there are two separate kind of Concepts that I am going for one with the petals blown out in the center and a design on the outside and then the other is kind of all of it swirling in together to the middle so I feel like my brain tried to connect the two in this even though I feel like they're two different techniques now I overworked this side so this side Blended a lot more um I don't have any yellow or gold coming up here and I wish I did but up close the colors are really really pretty the gold is just so pretty the green had a really pretty cell reaction it's just in this side I overworked the purple and the white but I'm getting there this is how Concepts kind of come to life they're not all perfect you don't always get them your first second third fourth try even but I think my concept is coming to or at least one of them is coming to life the first one where I get the swirl in the center I'm I'm getting that one but I'm going to keep trying I have some ideas to puddle the paints in the center and just basically do like a Dutch por after I've blown out the outside um and then I think my next color palette I'm going to do like a Pain's gray or a Prussian Blue and a light pink mix together and then after I get that concept then I think I'm going to try this on the spinner I also heard your ideas or your um that you liked my idea for using up what's on my shelves so that is going to be a series in the New Year if you like this video give it a thumbs up and comment it always helps my channel! keep coming back on Wednesdays and Sundays to see my new videos! I love you all so much. thank you for watching! happy painting! bye!
