I love LOVE the look of the Liquitex Pouring Medium…but I don’t personally paint abstracts. After talking to a rep from Liquitex we came up with a way that would allow me to paint a realistic subject over the pouring medium as a background!

These are the supplies I used (Amazon affiliate links)

Liquitex Pouring Medium
Liquitex Soft Bodied Acrylics (mixed into the pouring medium)
Liquitex Basics Acrylics (for the fish)
