Hi, Debbie....I've enjoyed your poured acrylic video segments so very much.....My question is once you lift the pouring from the plastic, do you then cut or tear each piece in order to get your collage pieces......or do you actually pour and spread the paint from the very beginning in the actual shapes you will use for the collage?
Debbie - Are any of the skins overlapping each other, or do you cut them to fit puzzle-like on the canvas ? Does it matter if they overlap, or is this something to avoid ?
Warning: Learn from my mistakes! :-) Cheap shower curtains did not work! Not even if they are shiny and smooth and properly stretched tight without wrinkles. Liquitex pouring medium will GLUE itself to the shower curtain and will NOT remove. It could be that shower curtains/liners I used have some kind of acrylic or latex-like component to them that makes the Liquitex bond to them. Also, make SURE to mix the pouring medium with paint. Some types of liquid acrylic paint will pool to the top of the leveling gel in a flat mat finish with very little marbling effect (looks as if you painted on top of the dried pouring medium). I believe the paints Debbie uses are liquid paints specifically for pouring. Liquid acrylics designed for painting may not work well at all. The best results I obtained were from mixing pouring medium with paint dyes in small squeeze bottles. Wonderful flowing effects and color were obtained from these. I will try to salvage the botched pours that glued to the shower curtains. Even though the pouring lines and marbling were minimal, leveling gel on top of them (for a flat glass like finish) glued to small canvases will hopefully make some interesting tiles.
