'La Luz' ~ Dramatic Abstract Art

#acrylicpouring #fluidart #bloomswipe #abstract #swipe
Hi guys! Thank you so much for being here ❤️
Today I am working on a 16" (40cm) round canvas.
Pillow/Base:
British Paints Interior Low Sheen house paint in White, nothing added. On top I added a 'faux pillow' of a mixture of Mont Marte Black, Ultramarine and Paynes Grey. My ''faux pillow'' paint is mixed exactly the same as my colours (see paint mixing video link below).
Colours:
#tlp Comet
TLP Golden Peach
TLP Indigo Waves
TLP pigments, silicone stir sticks and silicone pour mats can be purchased from fluid-art.co/
Jo Sonja Aqua
Pebeo Iridescent Precious Gold
Pebeo Iridescent Blue Black mixed with Matisse Flow Dioxazine Purple
Amazingly my colours seem to have disappeared!
My pigments and tube paints are mixed with untinted (neutral) gloss house paint (water based) and Jo Sonja gloss varnish. In some countries you may need 'Deep Base' you're looking for one without any (or a very small amount) of titanium white, or it will make your colours pastel.
Please see video #92 for how I mix my colours (both pigments and tubes).
• (92) How I Mix My Pain...
Cell Activators:
Amsterdam Titanium White and Atelier Titanium White (equal parts of each)
Atelier Mars Black
They were both mixed with Australian Floetrol, no silicone was added or any other oils.
I never measure ratios, I mix until it leaves a slight trace when drizzled from around an inch above the surface. If I had to take a guess on the ratio it would be 2:1 or 2.5:1 (Floetrol to paint).
My style has changed and evolved dramatically since I took the Sheleeart E-Course and I can't recommend it enough!
If you too would like to evolve your art and find your own style using knowledge gained from taking the course, head over to sheleeart.com.au/ and use my discount code of sheleeart15NDA to receive a 15% discount from the E-Course.
Add the code in the box where it says 'coupon code'
Once joined you will get access to the private Sheleeart Facebook group where Shelee hosts regular live video classes, your learning will be unending! The course is currently in the process of being upgraded and thus there will be a price increase, so get in quick before then as you will also receive access to all the new classes.
Please subscribe to my channel (it's free), also hit the thumbs up button (if you like it) and share the video with your friends. Please try and watch the entire video, I try and always keep my videos under 20 minutes. I have a tip jar, it's definitely not expected, but if you'd like to tip any small amount would be greatly appreciated and will go towards buying more paint supplies. Thanks in advance it's: paypal.me/Nikidfluidart
My lazy susan is glass and 20'' which was purchased from Coles supermarket, they can also be sourced from variety/dollar stores and on Amazon. The heavier the spinner, the easier it will spin, I'd also suggest you get the largest one you can so you can easily use it for larger substrates too.
My metal spatulas are artist palette knives, they can be purchased from fluid-art.co/ or independent art stores.

I am glad that you are an Aussie using Australian available products.

I have watched many many artists and have been inspired to paint. Your piece has given me an idea for a clock face. I enjoyed your piece. Thank you for the info.
