Before You Start: Fluid Art Projects

1. For the Starter

  • Choose the Base.
  • Choose color. (Based on your project, choose 3-4 color, additional color is$7/bottle)
  • View the tutorial to the type of base you choose. (QR codes on the wall)
  • Fluid Art needs to dry for 1.5-2 days. Use the post-it in the room to make a note.
  • Note info: Name/Cell Number/Description of the items (base type and color)/Date: mmddyyyy

 

2. Put on Protection

  • Fluid art paints contain special glue and shine enhancer and can be harder to clean than regular acrylic paints. Put on aprons and gloves if you prefer!

3. Process Recap & Tips

  • Find a spot that you can pinch the base stably (to move the base onto a drying tray at the end)
  • Check the balance of the item > Paint the base color on to difficult corners (to prevent blank spot after pouting > soak the brush in water when you are done
  • Prepare the paint: Layer your colors in a cup. Use the bamboo stick to create just a little bit pattern, but not too much. We want to see color layered on your base, so avoid mixing!
  • Pour > Move the piece to the drying tray, balance it on the stick > finish the blank spot with remaining paint > Done.
  • Tip: Tilt your base and pour from bottom to top, revolve and turn to check from every angle.
  • Please note that you won’t be able to change the position of the Gloomy bear after you start pouring.

4. Start the flow!

  • Important! Be sure to leave the spot untouched by the paint throughout the process.
  • Tip: Keep holding on to the spot will help you remember to avoid that spot and keep changing the angle to check the paint coverage constantly.
  • It’s impossible to fully control the pattern. Let free fluid participate in your creation!
