In today’s abstract acrylic painting tutorial, we’re creating MAGICAL negative space using a simple but exciting technique! A thin layer of heavily diluted acrylic paint is splattered with drops of isopropyl alcohol, creating random organic circles, textures and unexpected movement across the surface. The result is beautiful, atmospheric negative space that feels both intentional and completely unpredictable. This is a fast, beginner-friendly technique that encourages experimentation, happy accidents and discovering new possibilities in abstract art.
✨ EXCITING NEWS! The next Art Lab Retreat is heading to beautiful Marina del Rey, California! Join us for several days of creativity, connection and artistic exploration as we dive into fluid art, abstract techniques and fearless experimentation together. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced artist, Art Lab Retreat is designed to help you learn new skills, stretch your creativity and connect with an incredible community of supportive, like-minded artists. Come paint, play, take creative risks and make a beautiful mess with us!
