Cloud Pour
This fluid art technique is called the Cloud technique because of how the paints ‘puff up’ in a cloud like effect when we mix satin enamel paint into one of more of the acrylic paints. It is an technique which can give amazing and surprising results, we will combine it with a ring pour style.
After information and demonstration you will practice on a small canvas and then create your masterpiece on a 30 x 40.6 (12 x 16 inch) gallery wrapped canvas. All instruction, support and materials are supplied.
You will learn:
- How to prepare your canvas
- How to mix paints and paint mediums suitable for this technique
- Pouring mediums and recipes that are good for this technique and what difference this makes.
- How to choose colours and layer your paints on the canvas or in the cup.
- How to create cloud effects.
- How to do a ring pour.
All supplies provided including canvases, paint, pouring medium, cups, gloves, apron and tools. We provide plenty of space, with a maximum of 8 participants. Light refreshments (tea, coffee) provided. This is a ‘Paint and Sip’ event, so you are welcome to BYO drinks and nibbles. We provide glasses and plates. We use acrylic paint that is non toxic. Remember to wear old clothes as it can be a messy business, and whilst the paint and mediums will wash out if you get to it quickly, that is not always easy to do.
