Our staff has searched through our Facebook Group and picked the top pouring posts from the last couple months based on likes and comments (and what we could find). We’ve found some pretty awesome pieces and are excited to share them with you here. We’d also like to thank the artists that allowed us to …
I’ve been looking for some inspiration lately, so I was going through the YouTube channel for acrylicpouring.com when I found Steve’s Summer Wave video. The wave gave me a new idea, since I didn’t have many oceanic colors at my disposal but lots of primary colors to choose from I decided to do something of …
Have you ever started pouring and just thought, nope, not what I wanted? Maybe you used the wrong color combination, the wrong approach to a pour, or even just as you tilted you knew it wasn’t going to be anywhere near what you were hoping for. This is what happened on this project. I had …
In the last video blog, I experimented with two different styles of pour painting—flip cup and freestyle. Using the same colors I created two paintings side-by-side to see which one would look better. Most people agreed that the freestyle was more appealing and I was intrigued.

If you are trying something new, be patient. Things rarely turn out great the first time you do them. I tell my students, “If you want to be a great soccer player what do you do?” The answer… Practice! If you want to be a great musician what do you do? Practice! If you want …
Most people pour purely for their own pleasure and that is a wonderful thing. Some of us take things a little further and actually sell our paintings. If you think you will never get to the point of selling your art, beware. It may sneak up on you. I started out painting for my own …
