This is one of the paintings I (almost) finished, an abstraction with acrylic paints. Of course, I opted for blue because it’s my favorite.
I also used white, gray (metallic) and dark blue..
All that was left was to cover it with epoxy resin to give it a glassy look.
This is a relatively new pouring technique and I am still learning.
The biggest wait is for all colors to be the same density and that as many colors fit together nicely...the type of spill can be different... open cup, blow with a hair dryer, swipe, cup pour etc..
I may not be an artist, but this relaxes me so much, because it always turns out differently and the colors flow beautifully in front of my eyes.

@LadyDuck Thank you Anna, it is even more beautiful live when viewed and with resin it will be perfect, it will look like glass

@thelme55 Thank you! It will be even more beautiful when I pour resin over it, it will be as if there is glass over it

@Janet357 Thank you Simone The most beautiful thing is that you can't make two identical ones, you can be similar but not the same

@Giannna Everyone sees it differently, I guess it is also the emperor of this type of painting

@Giannna I accidentally saw this technique on yt and after a dozen watched videos I decided to try it myself, this one I posted I worked with 'blow' technique but I like it a lot too and open cup technique

@LowRiderX 'd be great if'n such could be recycled. i know some places do, but not anywhere near where i reside. 'tis most harmful to the environment. oh, those folks'n those videos 've 'd lots 'f practice!

@crazyhorseladycx You're right, the only thing I'm sorry about is a lot of paint ... I'm thrilled with the tutorials, how easy it seems while you watch the video, right?

@DianneN Yes, but now there is another problem here given the current situation, imports have been stopped and additives for acrylic paints, as well as silicone oil, are difficult to find.I have a small amount ..

@DianneN Thank you!!! so they say it's a relatively new technique, I happened to see it on yt and after watching a few shots, I wanted to do it myself ... I already had acrylic paints but I didn't have a medium for them, so I bought
