2 Pearl Pours! Simple is Best! Abstract Fluid Art! Elyse Fournier Inspired!
Welcome back!
Today I did a sort of experiment with paints on two different canvases. I discuss my thoughts at the end of the video!
All of my colors are mixed the same:
1 part paint
2-3 parts floetrol
Drizzle of luquitex pouring
Water
My base coat is mixed:
1 part paint
1 part DecoArts satin enamel pure white
2-3 parts floetrol
Drizzle of luquitex pouring
Water to thin
While revisiting the Pearl pours again it’s really important to get the right consistency!
Any questions please email me at DwightPours@yahoo.com
See you soon!
Cheers!

Fabulous Dwight !💕💕
Excellent pieces, and thank you for sharing! 🌼
Love out they turned out 3D effect love thé 2nd one
Great experiments. Those pearls turned out really nice and crisp white. I think both turned out great.
❤️❤️
I love them both. Thanks for sharing! Thanks for the explanations!
Excellent tutorial video. Like the resulting pearl pourings and many thanks for sharing your experiences Dwight👍🏻⭐️🙂
Very helpful tutorial with opacity results. Thank you so much for sharing ❣️
Wow they are both beautiful Dwight 😍 I love them
I love both of them
So spectacular, thanks for sharing!
Good job. I love both of them. Thank you for sharing.
You are so good to us Dwight.
Might be my device. I love these.
These are both so lovely. I enjoy your tutelage, I have been under the weather since mid may and I’m so happy to be back watching, learning and painting.

The crispness is impressive
Super excellent. This style will be my next exercise in painting😎❣️ Thank you for sharing your work and recipes!!!
Both are awesome and I really love the shading
I love it. Simple classy. Great on the wall. I c ant wait to have the room to give this style a try finally ! Its a just a matter of waiting for the weather to cool down . also I gotta email you for some info.
Gorgeous!!
Monochromatic must be on the brain! I just did a monochromatic one and then did a bunch of color glazes over the dried pour. I always enjoy your work 😊
These are stunning Dwight. I am inspired once again. Thank you!

Great paintings. Both of them. Not sure how much the cup layering contributed in the shading and overall effect. Thank you for sharing your methods. 👍
Your paintings are absolutely stunning!

I was so happy I forgot to say that I loved the painting. The composition was excellent. So clean and pleasing to the eye. Everything the simplicity and the pearl cell definition wow. I don't think I would ever tire of looking a either of the two. To me they each had individual wonder to offer. Thank you
More great paintings from Dwight! The second one is my favorite. The colors seem to stay separate yet both react the same in terms of producing pearls. Well done.

Top!! Molto bello ! Grazie 🙏🏻
Both pours are spectacular...there's something about the shadowing on that first one though that is drawing me to it...super cool and so unique...you're so darn good at these Dwight, so good! ☺

Hi, Dwight. I've just discovered you today, your work is amazing and stunning. Well done. I'm from Australia and I use Australian floetrol my question is. Do I need to put more floetrol and less water? Australian floetrol is thinner than American. Thank you very much!!

I don’t think it matters…it’s about the consistency, so if your floetrol is thinner you won’t need as much water to get the paints to the “right” consistency! Glad you found me!!
Hi Dwight, thank you for sharing and your tips. Beautiful paintings 👏 Have you tried a pearl pour with an other paint than artistloft in your base coat? Best regards from 🇳🇱
Also, if I want to do a black Pearl pour and put my colors down first then the black base coat on top for pearls to come through should the colors then be thinner and the base coat be thicker? Sorry for all of the questions!

I’m not sure what your are exactly asking. You can do pearl pours with any color satin enamel. It doesn’t have to be white. And you’ll get the pearls as well. These pours you need to have all the paint you are using the same consistency. Have fun!

Thank you for reviewing your process with us. Two questions, is your base thinner than your colors and do you weigh you paint or mix by fluid volume? Thanks so much.

Thank you! My base and colors are the same consistency…I don’t weigh my paints, I use my cups to approximate how much paint I need…I have 24 oz, 8 and 4 oz cups. I use a chart to determine how much paint I need to flood the canvas. Measuring is cumbersome as you have to always account for more paint as you are tilting paint off. If you are just accounting for how much you need to cover the canvas then most likely you will over stretch things…i always have more paint than I need to account for tilting edges and corners!
Very nice. Where to get soft body A.L. paint?

I'm going to follow your recipe why do you use gac800 sometimes in these pearl pours I have to do 3 for a woman on the cape

I don’t think you need to use GAC I rarely use it…maybe only if my paints are thick to keep from cracking
Both are fantastic but the first is my fav. When you say floetrol, are you using Australian or US? Thanks

Consistency is everything I think. For this pearl pour with the DecoArt enamel. Are your colors thinner than your base paint? Or the reverse? Is the Thinner one like half n half? Does it leave a mound? Or flow right in?

I had tried using your recipe today but all four paintings are not even any close to yours with a lot of pearls. Not sure why all four failed. I notice you don’t even tilt your canvas so much to get rid of extra paint but your results are a gazillion pearls. Maybe, I shouldn’t tilt so much.

I tried for pearl pour again this morning but so sad no luck. So just to feel better, I tried thickening the paints & wella! I’m “over the clouds”! I love the look of my clouds!!!! I’ll still try pearl pours but I need to take a break until my disappointment goes away 😂
Do you use enamel in your dump and swirl? If not, how do you get your pearls?
@dwightpours1261

This pour uses satin enamel paint, however a true dump and swirl doesn’t use satin enamels, you don’t need that to create cells…paint and floetrol thinned will do the job
Are you adding a buff in your first colors?

A buff?
Would it be possible to use GAC 800 instead of Liquitex pouring medium?
@dwightpours1261

They are both pouring mediums, it I’m not sure how gac would work in a dump and swirl…in the pearl pours people use it, but I don’t…it’s too expensive and I’m not sure of it’s benefits in my pours.
