Ocean Textured Acrylic Pouring - New Supply And ONLY 4 Colors!

Welcome to the new Ocean Textured Acrylic Pouring abstract art tutorial with new supply and ONLY 4 Colors! This time, I want to create an ocean shore painting, and it's going to be a very special tutorial because I have created some texture on my canvas. 

I created a sand texture using a sand gel. And for the other part of the canvas, I have created some very mild but distinct textures of the waves, so the waves go and move towards.

I'm not sure how this abstract art idea will turn out, but I'm extremely eager to explore the combination of techniques: textured art and fluid acrylics.

"Serenity" is a secret message for this acrylic pour painting. I definitely want this ocean painting to be very serene, peaceful, and dreamy. As for the color palette, I am keeping it very simple and minimal. I have mixed four different colors, all of which consist of three colors: phthalo blue, phthalo green, and some of them also include titanium white. 

But every single color that I'm going to pour on the canvas is a combination of phthalo blue and phthalo green, but in a different proportion. I want to create a gradient that transitions from lighter to darker, moving deeper into the ocean. 

So let's see how such a fluid painting idea turns out. And without further ado, let's get started.

Voila! Here's the very final look of this ocean shore painting. It is a truly beautiful and distinct outcome. And I must say that I absolutely loved working with textures, and I'm not entirely new to this style, as I have been working with impasto techniques before. However, I have never combined them with fluid acrylics and my fluid art techniques. It was challenging, I need to practice more, but I am very happy with my outcome. 

In this fluid painting, I especially love the combination of texture and fluid acrylics on the water, as it creates a rippling effect that really showcases the water. And of course, the sand texture is also pretty cool; you can actually touch it, as it's right there. 

I hope you enjoyed this acrylic painting tutorial, and I look forward to hearing from you!

Colorfully yours,
Olga Soby
