Acrylic Pour Paint

Looking for a fun date night activity? Visit your favorite crafting store and then settle in for a night of creativity as you create your very own pour paint artwork using two techniques taught in this “Hobby Hunting” video!

Materials Needed:
  • Canvas
  • Disposable Gloves
  • Disposable Cups
  • Acrylic Pour Paints
  • Gold Flecks
  • Popsicle Stick
  • Disposable Tray
  • Garbage Bag

Flip-Cup Technique:

  1. Add the acrylic pour paint into a cup one color at a time until you have gone through the colors at least twice.
  2. You can add in gold flecks or glitter if desired, and then stir slightly.
  3. Place the canvas on top of the cup and flip over holding it tightly so that it doesn’t spill.
  4. Once you have the canvas placed in the tray, remove the cup and then tilt the canvas until the paint runs off and covers all of the edges.
  5. Add on a few extra gold flecks to complete the look.
  6. Allow the canvas to dry for 48 hours.

Bullseye Technique:

  1. Place the canvas in the tray and add small amounts of acrylic pour paint onto the center of the canvas, one color at a time until you have gone through the colors at least twice.
  2. Title the canvas until the paint runs off and covers all the edges. You can continue to tilt the canvas to manipulate the placement of the paint colors.
  3. If desired, add more paint and continue to tilt the canvas until you achieve a final product you are satisfied with.
