I am an acrylic pouring addict, without a doubt. Playing with colors, testing out new fluid art techniques, brands, sizes & collaborating with other abstract fluid artists; is the best. Since I started this journey I feel more balanced in my work and passion. If you see these fluid painting tutorials and feel like, this is something for me: go for it! The fun thing about fluid painting is, that even though you do exactly the same, the outcome is different everytime. Also everybody has a different view of composition, colorcombinations and the way of doing a technique, what makes and keeps it so interesting to watch. Thank you for watching and following me in my modern art journey!

Hey Renske, where do you buy the canvas? And what quality checks do you use to buy the canvas? (And just between us Dutchies: Are canvasses of Hornbach or Bauhaus okay? Because they tend to be a bit cheaper than the artstore canvasses)

Enjoyed this video. I have a tendency to over blow my Dutch pour and Inslso have tried to gently blow mine as you. Do but I cannot seem to get it right. I may need my paint thinner, it blows with a dryer but I jus seem to don’t know when to stop but have learned from you I can scrape off partsI don’t like. Love all your videos.

I wish I had seen this a couple years ago before I got started. So thank you. One tip for beginners is don’t start out learning on the most expensive canvases. Practice and learn consistency or you could run out of money before you get to the really good art pieces.

Exactly but they should also sell it cheaper! Because some use not good quality products and they sell very expensive.

These tips would have been great to know 3 years ago. Thanks for sharing them now so that new acrylic pourers don’t give up. I teach fluid art and I know if some people don’t get good results they don’t always want to continue. My advice is to stick with it a bit longer. An important aspect of pouring is that it comes down to 3 critical items - consistency, consistency and consistency. If you’re trying a new style of painting and it’s not working, it’s likely because the paints are different or wrong consistencies. Write down what you use when you’re testing it. Keep trying by varying only one thing at a time. The base coat is as important as the other colours but sometimes it needs to be thinner - depending on the style of painting - in order to allow the paint to tilt over the base coat. To test your paints put a spoonful of each on a canvas to check the flow rate. If one flows down more quickly than the rest, it’s too thin and needs more paint it flows down too slowly then it’s too thin and needs more water added to the paint mix.

Love this, Rinske. Thank you. I especially like your comments on how to respond when things don't go as planned. I think that's one of my favorite things about acrylic pouring. I used to work in live TV production. We had to think on our feet and "go with the flow" when equipment malfunctioned or something else went wrong. It's the same with acrylic pouring. Sometimes you just have to "go with the flow" (pun intended). ;-)

Thank you, Rinske! You have helped to make my fluid art journey fun, playful and forgiving when it doesn’t go well. A tip I would share with a new artist is that it is so important to make sure your canvass is level. My very first piece was beautiful but I failed to level it and I was horrified when I checked it later and it ran off and my design was lost. I scraped it and tried to recapture what I had originally created and it never panned out. But I learned a very valuable lesson.

I love this video and all the rest of yours!😊 something that I wish I new when I started doing fluid art was how important the consistency of my paint was. Each color even within the same brand is so different in how much water needs to be added because some colors are more pigmented then others are. I wish I knew this in the beginning.

Rinske this video is fantastic. I would love to see more videos like this. When I first started pour painting I thought it be the same as when I paint a landscape, animals, floral design or similar pieces... I was so wrong lol. Sometimes I have a picture in my head that I want the pouring to go and the paint is like "nope, not today" so now when that happens I pour and let the paint tell me what it wants. With some tweaks here and there it usually comes out close to what's in my head or totally different.
