I tried a dutch pour and failed

In this video, I dive into the thrilling world of Dutch pour painting for the first time! I started off confident, but reality hit hard when I discovered the impact of using wet base paint. The final result was a surprising twist!
I've learned from my mistakes and can't wait to give it another shot with a more stable base paint. A huge thank you to all my subscribers - your support means everything to me!
A Dutch pour is an acrylic painting technique known for its vibrant, flowing patterns and stunning color blends. Here's a brief explanation:
Dutch Pour Technique
Preparation:
Canvas: Start with a blank canvas of your choice.
Paints: Use acrylic paints, typically mixed with a pouring medium to ensure the right consistency for flowing.
Tools: Common tools include a blow dryer or air blower, cups for mixing, and sometimes silicone oil for creating cells.
Base Layer:
Apply a thin, even layer of base paint (usually white or black) over the entire canvas. This helps the poured colors to flow smoothly.
Color Pouring:
Pour different colors of paint onto the canvas, either directly onto the base layer or in specific patterns.
Blowing Technique:
Use a blow dryer or your mouth to blow the paint across the canvas. This helps to spread the colors, creating intricate, organic patterns and blending effects.
Finishing Touches:
Allow the painting to dry completely, which can take several days.
Optionally, you can add a varnish or resin coating to enhance the colors and protect the painting.
Key Characteristics
Fluid Patterns: The technique creates fluid, abstract patterns that often resemble natural forms like flowers, waves, or clouds.
Cell Formation: By adding silicone oil, artists can create "cells" - small, circular areas where colors separate, adding texture and depth.
Vibrant Colors: The use of multiple colors and the blending effect results in vivid, eye-catching artworks.
Dutch pour is popular for its dynamic and unpredictable results, making each painting unique and expressive.

I think it's beautiful! 💫🤩

[@malachi.creates]

Thank you I was happy at the end I'll have to practice more to get a Dutch pour 😄

[@Katsfluidartcreations]

We artists are our own worst critics. Each piece we create is a learning journey. I’ve had many what I call fails for sure 😊 Beautiful creation ✨

[@malachi.creates]

Thank you ai appreciate the kind words and I totally agree haha

[@user-jb2sy7jp1o]

Even though the Dutch pour failed you still created something wonderful.
Watch Molly, Olga Soby they do wonderful Dutch pours

[@malachi.creates]

Haha yes they are the masters I actually got indpred by them. It's all learning and I was happy with the result though ☺️

[@user-jb2sy7jp1o]

I still haven't mastered the Dutch pour first one was oh no that was a disaster

[@childboii]

EPIC FAIL❤

[@malachi.creates]

not a bad fail at all lol

[@RobinDsArt]

Dutch pours are tough, but fun. Maybe you might try a larger puddle of paint to blow and just keep trying. That's all we can do. Plus it is still pretty.

[@malachi.creates]

I think the canvas is small too haha but thank you I appreciate the comment ☺️ I'll get it it I promise

How do you know you failed? I think it turned out well, and anyway, I don't believe that you can make a mistake with this technique. Okay, sure, you can make mistakes in minor things, like how the paint is mixed and what it's mixed with, but it's like scrambled eggs; if the scrambled eggs don't turn out right, you're an alien. I don't mean to say that everyone can make beautiful creations with this technique, because you need imagination and skill to create something beautiful. But there is nothing wrong with your creation! It is very beautiful and special!

I appreciate it, I guess its more of a learning lesson for me and it wasnt what I had in mind, but the final result was beautiful, like marble stone it was a cool result haha thanks for the comment.

@@malachi.creates Oh, then I apologize, it is very true that what you write is an end result of what you wanted to get out of your creation, and you are the only one who can really see where you wanted to take this specialness. So again, I apologize and I see it differently from here. Thank you for the experience!
