Chain Pull Technique
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
I used a 12 x 12 canvas and covered it with a coat of white paint. I took a piece of ball chain and coated it in the purple (amethyst) paint. While this is very similar to using the string - it does provide a bit of a different look.

I did these and I also made the flowers with and the background the color of the flowers...opposites. all turned out beautiful. I also will add more to the taller ones by doing it again on the lower half, making it fuller.

Awesome! What colors did you use?
Great job Kathy. I have gone out and bought all the supplies for a dirty pour but haven't decided the colors I want for my first try. haha I will keep this in mind when I decide to do my tutorial. If I do the ball chain technique I will be sure to credit your tutorial here. smile Have a wonderfully creative month. TFS P.S. I think the mess of it is subconsciously holding me back. hahahahahaha

Yeah Amanda! That is what it is all about!
What I still have is the base. Never sure how much to put on.

You don't want the base to be too thick when doing chain or string pulls.

One more question. What are u using for coating before painting?
@DesignedByKathy
5 жыл бұрын
On this one, I did the background in white -- with the additive included in the paint. I did not use guesso or a primer.
So you don’t have to put a medium in the base paint?
@DesignedByKathy

Yes - I always use a medium - Floetrol is what I use most all the time. Unless -- you have purchased pouring paints that already have the medium mixed in. Happy Pouring!
If you loop the chain while you put it down it will give you a fuller flowe.

Certainly worth a try Ginny! Also -- by using more than one chain creates another effect. (see Simple Christmas Tree video)
very nice so can just put white paint on the canvas we don't have to add anything with it
I love it!! You said you covered it with a coat of white paint but didn't mention if you used any type of flowtrol. What type of white paint did you use? Thank you!!

Thank you Chrissy. I mostly use Floetrol or Liquitex pouring medium.
Do you put the white down on raw canvas, or is there gesso or something?
@DesignedByKathy

I did not put gesso on this particular one. It is not a bad idea to use if you are going to be adding treadmill belt oil to your paints - but this project I just put the white directly onto the canvas. Thanks for watching!
Hi, are you mixing the paint with something before ? Water, oil or another liquid ? Thank you, I love it

Have you tried to layer another color on top?

Actually I did. While I love purple and white together, the particular purple I used just did not create enough contrast. So, I did a completely new pour on that one!

Hi Rosa - I will definitely keep that in mind for a wet paint re-do. This one was completely dry when I decided to go for something else.
Why not let it fall naturally rather then laying it with your other hand?
@DesignedByKathy

You could do that - it would give you a different look - rather than the "flower" look that I was going for. It would be fun to try - I'll do a video on it and see what happens! Thanks!
