Dirty Pour
When I was learning to pour paint, the first technique I tried was the dirty pour. With the dirty pour, combine all your paints in one cup, and then pour that cup onto the canvas.
There are a few variations that will change the outcome of your final piece. If you want a more blended pour, use a stir stick to gently swirl through the paint in your cup. If you’d like less blending, pour the paints down the side of the cup to layer them before pouring.
TOOLS & MATERIALS:
• Freezer paper
• Canvas
• Cups
• Tape
• Paint (I used GOLDEN® Fluid Acrylics)
