Fluid Art with DecoArt Interference Paint

I've been experimenting with fluid art.  

Trying to get cells to create is hard!
I've tried multiple mediums, multiple products.  The DecoArt Media Fluid Acrylics is my favorite!!
Their Interference Colors worked FABULOUS!!


I started with a black canvas.  Just mixed DecoArt carbon black with some water and flotrol and had a big pool in the center, scattered some paint around the edges.


I've tried blowing with hairdryer, spinning, blowing with straw.  I can't seem to control the harshness of the blow dryer.  But I did use the blow-dryer on this canvas.  Did a little tilting as well.

The colors just turned out so vibrant.  The pictures really don't do them justice!! 





Colors used:  Violet, Gold, Blue 

Thanks for stopping by!

DecoArt Paint Pour Success!!

I'm new at Paint Pouring-so still learning what will and won't work!!
This is my finished piece!
I love how the colors move and create a unique piece of artwork!!



I started by pouring white Acrylic paint mixed with water to thin it out over the entire base.
The base is a 14 inch round from Hobby Lobby.  All paint used is from DecoArt Ready to Pour Acrylic Paint-found HERE

I had the idea to make flowers.  I was looking to do something delicate.  But I poured too much paint!  Once I started blowing out the paint (using a straw), the colors took over the canvas!!  That's not a bad thing if that's what you're looking for!! Ha!



Since delicate was the look I was going for, I gently laid a napkin on top -gently!!  To pick it up, pull up each corner and slowly lift it off.



Viola!!!  This was the outcome!  I love how the colors became more delicate and mixed!

Tutorial Vintage Butterfly Card

Welcome to my Blog!


One of my coworkers is having a birthday next week.  She's not a real frilly girl.  I tried to keep it simple, yet elegant.  I wanted to layer it.  I used DecoArt multi surface Acrylic Metallic paints to enhance several embellishments on the card and tie the whole thing together.
See the YouTube video at the bottom for all the steps.
