This is the new painting I made for my office wall. It took me a long time to learn to do all the different elements. The stones are sea glass from Puerto Rico (thank you Marsha Sweet)

I define myself as a fluid artist and I often get asked what that means. I start with artist-grade acrylic paint and add “pouring medium” to it. This medium makes the paint very fluid so it will flow easily. For example, when I paint on canvas, the paint, with the added medium, is poured onto the canvas and then the canvas is tilted all different directions to make things flow together. Because of this it can be hard to know how things will turn out. I can use the same paint colors, the same technique, and have two canvases that look very different. The paint that flows off the canvas and dries is called a paint skin. I use the paint skins to make all kinds of jewelry and keychains. I also do the pouring on other surfaces besides canvas, such as coasters, picture frames, blank acrylic earrings, light switch covers etc. Basically anything that I think I can paint on I will experiment with. There are numerous ways to layer the paint in the pouring cup and numerous ways to do the actual pouring, so I am regularly experimenting with surfaces, colors, and techniques.

Welcome to my page for my one-of-a-kind fluid art creations. I do acrylic pouring on canvas as well as numerous other surfaces including coasters, jewelry, light switch covers, and more. I also use the skin from the pours to make paint skin jewelry and keychains.
