Grey: Frosty Jupiter Dream scene

So I experimented last night I’ve been watching all these videos about acrylic pouring . I do like to see the finished results as these amazing sparkly Goldie blingy shiny paintings .

Doing an acrylic pour is one of the items on my activity wish list so I had a go and in this next series of five are the end results.

It’s not strictly an acrylic pour it’s a made up version. Normally a pour needs things like silicon and all kinds of bits added to make the the paint separate so that you get what they call cells.

So for the first one you can see in the next post that I added Environ face mask to it and I added a serum gel something I thought would be making the acrylic separation. But that didn’t work in the same way I would hope.

Instead what I do love is the smooth texture the my upcycled make up brushes make to the painting. Here I used the contour brush. I’m sure I would not be getting such a smoothly sumptuously painted surface if I used ordinary artists paint brushes.

A 70’s themed study in brown

So I did this study in various shades of brown. It’s not really an on trend color but i was at the end of a painting spree and had quite a few shades left over.

 

 

When i took pictures of the painting and situated them in various parts of the the house I noticed how much it reminded me of African safari with a 70’s vibe. Again not a look that is on trend at the moment, unless you include the appetite for mid century. However I’m rather proud of this. It’s feels like the neatest and more balanced of my works so far.
