Hello My Beautiful People! Welcome back! Last week I released a video where I showed you how I created texture and dimension in my art using Lightweight Spackling. That video is called Caterpillar Ridges, you can watch it here • Caterpillar Ridge ✨️ C...
Since the first piece using texture I have been wanting to pour paint on top and tilt it out and see what happens.. so that is what we are doing here today! I had originally used crackle paste on this piece but it did not behave quite as I expected and was curling up so much that it was falling off. I scraped what remained and added additional spackling to smooth that part over and then let it dry. Now we are ready to pour some paint and get to tilting!!
The canvas I'm using is a 10x20 inch gallery wrapped canvas from Artists Loft.

I chose to do a flip cup on this because I didn't want to create a lot of lines that could get distorted by the ridges. Before I poured the paint I debated using a basecoat, but upon further reflection I think it would have given me a better result.
Next time I will thin my paint down just a touch, and use a very limited color palette. I feel like the amount of color of this made it hard to see all the ridges. I think something simpler would show off those gorgeous 3D shapes and shadows better. I am a little obsessed with the shadows these create.. its very cool!
I am so excited to be teaching a Terrific Textures class at our Fluid Art Boutique in beautiful Washington DC this coming August 6-8th, 2024! I am also teaching my Wanderlust class, as well as a Flipping Amazing FlipCup class! Please checkout our website at
