Christine, Susan, Nancy and Loll, Day 5 of Retreat! We are looking a bit weary, but still very, very Happy! Did I mention, we are all hoarse too :-)
Oh my, But we had fun at our 1st annual Stamping Retreat in Vancouver, BC at Christine's beautiful home! We are sharing a Blog Hop featuring the fun and very messy Acrylic Ink ....
Dirty Pour Technique!
Dirty Pour Close Up
This was my 1st time to try this very artsy Abstract Fluid Painting with acrylics technique. We should have taken a photo of our table set up. We had heavy plastic on the table and on the floor. Also used lots of plastic cups for our 8" x 8" canvases to rest on and more plastic cups for mixing and pouring on the liquid acrylic paints. Here is a link to one of the youtube videos we used. There are many videos if you want to do your own research.
I will list my supplies at the end of my post. This is my first post with one of the many techniques we used during our 5 day retreat. I waited until I flew home yesterday to start making cards out of my samples. I will be sharing more projects in the near future.
Here are the links to my stamping girlfriends blogs so you can Hop on over to see their gorgeous Abstract Dirty Pour Canvases. Enjoy....Hugs,
