The Essential Beginner’s Handbook for Fluid Art Tips, Tricks, and Techniques Learn 5 FAST, QUICK & EASY Methods


Making beautiful, colorful messes is so much fun!

Have you ever wanted to tap into your creative side but thought you lacked artistic talent?

Do you love the look of modern, abstract artwork but are afraid to take the leap of making your own?

Are you a perfectionist? Are you scared to create artwork because you’ll feel you will have to do and re-do and RE-DO it over and over again?

Don’t worry! This book holds the answers for you!

Now you can learn to create beautiful works of art with your own two hands! It’s cheap, easy, and fun!

Literally, anyone who can spill a cup of milk can make a masterpiece.

Acrylic poured artwork is funky, fresh, and totally on-trend right now. You can use this method to paint to just about anything around your house to create that spectacular conversation piece.

Even if you think you lack artistic talent, in this book, I show you that YOU can unleash the artist inside you.

You haven’t had this much fun making art since you finger-painted in Kindergarten for Mother’s Day!

This type of art creation is perfect for kids and adults of all ages. It can be so satisfying, too!

The artwork is sometimes not just in the end result, but the journey of the process is half the satisfaction.

In this book, I will show you in easy to follow, step-by-step instructions and techniques of how to create wondrously amazing works of fluid acrylic paint poured art.

I start from the very beginning.

What are the absolutely necessary materials What materials and supplies are helpful but optional How to set up your workspace How to mix the paint just right What are “cells” and how you make them

Once we set a firm foundation, I will talk you through the 5 major methods of pouring the paint.

We’ll talk about:

The Dirty Pour (no, it’s not a mixed drink!) The Puddle Pour (sounds fun, right?) Swiping (not “stealing!”) The ever-popular “Soda Bottle” pour technique Using a blow dryer or straw to create different looks

This type of art is extremely affordable because you can paint anything you want using these techniques! You can stick to canvas, but your imagination is your only limit!

In this book, I tried to pack it full of photographs to illustrate exactly what I’m talking about - visually.

For a limited time, if you purchase the paperback version of this book on Amazon, you can download the eBook for FREE! That way, you can see all of the full-color photographs in their Technicolor glory.

For the beginner of Pour Paint

This book was very good at explaining the basics of paint pouring and the materials. I wish I had known this before I began. I now have hundreds of bottles of paint, mediums, and utensils for moving and manipulating paint. It has taken over my house!! Still as a single living alone, I love my paints!!

Ready to try.

I stumbled on this type art on You Tube. I never had any talent with art but this looked fun and like something I might be able to do. I looked for beginners info and found this book. The author was great and put everything in a way those with no knowledge could understand. I am ready to try. Thanks Laura.

Great book for beginners

I found the book to be extremely helpful so that I don’t have to make beginner mistakes. The information provided was new to me and I have watched many videos. She helped in explaining what products will not last as long as others.

Good Tips But Not a Keeper

There is good advice in the book, but it is badly written. If you get past that, you'll probably get a few good tips out of it. This certainly wouldn't be keeper, though. Thank goodness for Kindle Unlimited.
