Cloud pours are one of my favorite techniques! In this video, I show you how to get a mesmerizing composition with a funnel pour on a round canvas using a spinner from @EricaHughesArt .
My cloud mix recipe:
2 parts US Floetrol
1 part DecoArt Satin Enamel (can be substituted with Vallejo Pearl Medium)
1 part Chromacryl Acrylic Essentials White (can be substituted with Artist's Loft Soft Body White)
(Pro tip: This recipe also works as a pearl pour if you thin it with 1 part water)
I have the BEST Patreon group!! They attacked this challenge with creativity, ingenuity and fearlessness. Stay to the end of this video to check out their contributions, and follow along with all of the other videos in this playlist:
