Just what I needed to let loose!! Thank you for confirming what I already felt intuitively. Can’t wait to get to my art desk this morning. ?‍?❣️

I am glad you enjoyed the demo 🙂

Here is a list of the supplies I used:
– Paper: watercolor or mixed media paper. Arches would be a favourite (Hot press/300lb)
– Indian ink ( I used the Royal brand but any brand will work)
– Rubbing alcohol
– Flat brush
– White acrylic paint (regular bodied)
– Optional, to add patterns: pan pastels, dry pastels, Sakura pigma micron marker, white oil sharpie, Copic markers, Sakura white gelli roll…

So lovely and inspiring! What type of base paper did you use? Water color paper? brands you like? Can you give more information about brands of ink? brushes? etc? Am a beginner…and would love to find resources from one experienced… to start playing..
Thank you!

Thanks so much for this. I just joined today and this is the first posting I checked. I have developed rheumatoid arthritis in my knees & wrists & fingers. During a flare-up I sometimes am not able to do the crafts I have done all my life. So I started investigating painting. Last summer I tried watercolor & acrylic painting. Doing okay at it. Recently I discovered acrylic pour painting. Your post shows me ways to use the pourings that I don’t really like as a stand alone picture. There is one small (3X3) pour that is ugly. I have thought of painting over it, but I can see a dragon head in there. I didn’t know how to bring it to life. Now I can’t wait to get into the studio and see what happens next. Thanks again for the inspiration.
