Now grab yourself some paints and BE FEARLESS!
My custom pouring medium: 2 parts US Floetrol, 1 part PVA glue (similar to Elmer's Glue All, 1 part gloss varnish.
Pearl Mix: 2 parts pouring medium, 1 part DecoArt Satin Enamel White, 1 part Artist's Loft Soft Body White, 1.5 part water. Super thin consistency - leaves no mound or trace when drizzled off of the stir stick.
Cell activator: 3 parts Australian Floetrol, 1 part JoSonja Pale Gold (slightly thicker consistency than pearl mix)
Amsterdam Greenish Blue and Amsterdam Pearl Violet were mixed 2 parts pouring medium to 1 part paint and thinned with water. Same consistency as the Cell Activator works best.
