In today’s tutorial is inspired by the Japanese concept of Kintsugi, which means “golden joinery” – the art of putting broken pieces of pottery back together using gold.

Today we are creating another digital fluid art piece with my Acrylic Pour brushes for Procreate, which emulates the “dirty pour” technique used in analogue acrylic pour paintings. With this technique, after the canvas is prepped with white paint, several fluid acrylic colors are added to the same cup and then poured artistically onto the canvas. This […]

Today we are creating a digital acrylic pour painting in Procreate, which looks a bit like a flower! When I started out I did not intend for it to be a flower but that is how it turned out, with wispy tendrils for petals and a gold metallic center, so I just went with it. […]
