  • Acrylic Pour on a Terracotta Flower Pot (Clean Pour method). Here are the basic steps:
    1. I primed this with white primer (not necessary, I just wanted a white background)
    2. Pour paint onto flower pot in whatever order and whatever colors you'd like (see my paint mix ratio below)
    3. Once done applying paint, let it drip for about 5 minutes
    4. Move flower pot off of canvas, set it to the side to finish drying and make a painting out of the canvas
    5. Once flower pot is fully dry (it takes about a day), seal it. I use Rustoleum Crystal Clear Enamel Spray.
    Materials used:
    Artist's Loft Flow Acrylics
    Liquitex Basics Acrylic Paints
    DecoArt metallics
    Floetrol
    Water
    Mix ratio: 5 parts floetrol, 3 parts paint, 2 parts water

    These are very easy, they're cute in the yard with flowers, and really fun for kids.. my kids and hubby made me a handful a couple years ago. 💙

    @1SnarfyDude Před 6 lety +4

    I was watching this and had a crazy thought. What if you took a scale model of a car, did a pour over it. Then when it was cured you had someone photograph and digitize each panel. You could then have one of the vinyl wrap companies print it out and apply it to an actual car.
    Of course it's like a lot of my ideas, the will it's there but the funds aren't. Oh well, maybe some day...thanks for the inspiration even if it never sees the light of day. Great video, by the way.

  • @Wtfjexxican
    @Wtfjexxican Před 5 lety

    The painting reminds me of a fabric I made a really cool dress with once.
    I think together they would look amazing in an entry way, the pot on a little table beneath the painting with like a funky topiary in it.

    Very cool! I kept thinking your little green sink strainer upside down under the pot would probably make some neat designs from the paint that went through the top 😱 lol love this one.

    I seal the inside so when the terracotta absorbs water it doesn't bubble up the acrylics.

  • @jennifermott9537
    @jennifermott9537 Před 6 lety +15

    Super awesome!
    I bought some of that enamel spray to do my paintings. Sprayed the first layer and before I even got the painting to its drying spot there was a bug stuck to it! :) Now that's mixed media! ;)
    (Just kidding, I got it off the painting.)
    Love your work so much!

  • @brendajernigan7642

    Can this be used with live plants or would it ruin the coating?? May be a dumb question, but I would love to have some of these to display my plants!

    This is COOL!! I'm going to have to do my pots now! Being a stained glass artian, I've done mosaics on them before and you have to put a water sealer on them inside and out. (HAHAHA! At 6 minutes, when you held it up, in the bronzy left corner, I saw an alien face!)

    Love that you started with the pot and used the run off to do a painting. I am trying this with 4th and 5th graders and wanted to do both a pot and a canvas now I will combine the 2 into one lesson. How long does it take the painting to dry? Thank you for listing what materials you used. So many do not and it is hard for beginners to figure out what we need.

    I have found out that you have to seal the pot inside and out with terracotta sealer or the paint peels off after time due to the watering of the plants

  • @bonniezishka101
    @bonniezishka101 Před 5 lety

    Hi. I did some teeny tiny pots (dollar store) last night and I definitely agree the straight pour is best. My dirty pour got “too dirty” as the colors flowed down the sides. Regarding the spray enamel...will that protect the pots if used outside or is there something else I should use?

    Hi! I'm a beginner and new to painting in general...You said you can tell that your canvas is stretching and effecting your design...how can you tell and what should I look for when buying a canvas? I know artist loft has like level 1-3 or something? What's the difference?

    • @MixedMediaGirl
      @MixedMediaGirl  Před 6 lety

      Just visually I could see that it stretched out :) All canvases will stretch, you can tighten them up by spraying the back of it with water. With Artist's Loft the numbers all quality (1 being the lower quality, 3 being higher quality)

I don't know what color or kings of paint i used but i guess i didn't wait very long for or to dry coz i planted something in it and the plant died in like three days. Ha. I obviously did something wrong. Wrong kind of paint?
