I use a 16"x20" stretched canvas. All the paints I use are acrylic paints mixed with additives to help them flow more easily. All my colors are stored and mixed in squeeze bottles for ease of use. I add paints from squeeze bottles (acrylic colors mixed with pouring mediums)in random patterns all over the canvas. Prussian blue, cobalt blue, dark purple silver, and black. Mixing them together vertically in long strokes the length of the canvas overlapping the colors from top to bottom. Next, I use colors I have in an iPod box and add more colors to the box floating on its surface I wish to use to make my tree. I scoop out the colors for the trunk with a plastic sand shovel and allow a wide stripey ribbon to flow out in the shape of the trunk. I use the residual color on the shovels front edge to begin to create the branches of the tree by dribbling thin ribbons of paint and using the flat front to make marks representing branches. I dip the same edge into the paint to repeat the process. I use a bamboo skewer to make smaller branches by pulling paint from the larger areas and use a small flat front silicone spatula to create alternative size branches.

My "pouring" mixture is 3/4 Floetrol with 1/4 (estimated) GAC800 from "Golden" (prevents cracking and adds shine to dry artwork.)mix into it thoroughly. Depending on the paint the amounts of color can vary. I like to begin with half pouring mixture and half color. After that is mixed VERY thoroughly I add more pouring mixture until the viscosity (thickness) is like warm hone. If I want it thinner I add more Pouring mixture. If the color is not strong enough I add more pigment.
When mixing colors my amounts are always estimated and then altered to get the right consistency I like. I use plastic squeeze bottles with measurements on the side.
I add a marble to my bottle to aid in the mixing process. Marbles work well but exercise caution if you end up with more than one they will shatter in the mixture eventually. It's imperative (Important) that all mixture be shaken thoroughly once before using in any session the first every time! The consistency is usually medium "body" weight, but other weights are usable with minor adjustments.
All my acrylic paints are mixed in advance and contained and stored in squeeze bottles. If you are not using squeeze bottles, I suggest using a container that has a tight-fitting lid or seals the container with Glad sticky wrap. I have often used the 4oz size plastic deli containers, and the paint keeps for a long time in them, but you must stir before using the mix again. Floetrol and other flow agents will rise to the top between uses. None of my acrylic paint has any added silicone. To create the pearlescent effects seen in most of my artworks, I use "Golden's" Iridescent pearl "Fine" added to colors. I add a good squirt directly into whatever I am mixing in. I recommend experimenting to find out how much is enough for your ideal shimmer.


Every day I learn new things. I will never stop experimenting, and I am happy to share what I discover with you.
