Although, I do like the one with “yellow lightening” a lot also. One of my favorite ways to use the funnel is to flood the canvas & then let the funnel pour from an inch or so above in different patterns, then tilt. I saw BRTurner do it on his KZread. It’s fun & very different.

Here is my video about this container that I am using - kzread.info/dash/bejne/hoB8xdOQaaSxp9I.html

I have a question about the paint tilted off. Is it possible to strategically stack your colors in such a way that the colors you want to keep are less likely to be tilted off? For example, in a funnel pour the color at the bottom will most likely tilt off, but in a tree ring pour , the color on top will most likely be tilted off, so would it make sense to utilize the idea of a "waste" color? Not meaning waste in the sense of ugly, but maybe save the "special" colors or theme colors for the part less likely to go over the side? It may not even be worth thinking about, but here I am, thinking about it anyway...🤔

@LeftBrainedArtist

11 ай бұрын

You have that exactly right. The last colors out of the cup/funnel will be the ones in the middle of canvas and less likely to tilt off. I use more base paint in either my base coat or on the bottom or top of my cup (depending on how I am pouring it out) to help compensate for this.

Ok so I'm a bit confused now... I've watched LoOoTtTsSs of pouring videos from many different artists and each of them do each of same basic techniques a lil differently but always with the basic "rules" (and using that word "rules" very loosely!) of each technique being the same from person to person... Until now... This is the 1st time I've seen someone do funnel pours onto a dry canvas instead of first pouring a puddle on the canvas and then funnel empties into that puddle... The results r quite different between dry canvas and puddle... Both r beautiful tho!

@LeftBrainedArtist

2 жыл бұрын

Just depends on the effects you want. I had no silicone in my cup and I didn't put a base coat down to create special lacing/cells. It isn't required just depends on how you want it to look.

@Christina S That's what is SO AMAZING about fluid art!! 👏👏👏 There are no "rules" really, just DIFFERENT techniques and DIFFERENT styles, and DIFFERENT results! 👏😊👏 That's how I see it anyway!🤷‍♀️🤗 Every creator just does what "feels right", once you start, those creative instincts kick in! Just like when David changed up his plan and decided to do that "spin" to preserve the middle design. I just started this art media when I discovered it on 6/7/22 and I "poured" my first canvas that day! (Well, it didn't really "pour" because I didn't understand about the "medium" and I just used Tempera Paints with no medium! 🤣🤦‍♀️🤣and I actually love that painting! I have since continued to learn and I have tried so many techniques already on my Channel. You just have pick one technique that you want to try and jump in. It won't always be "successful" or turn out how you "like", BUT you will learn something every time!! 👏👏👏
