DecoArt Paint Pour Success!!

I'm new at Paint Pouring-so still learning what will and won't work!!
This is my finished piece!
I love how the colors move and create a unique piece of artwork!!

I started by pouring white Acrylic paint mixed with water to thin it out over the entire base.

The base is a 14 inch round from Hobby Lobby.  All paint used is from DecoArt Ready to Pour Acrylic Paint-found HERE

I had the idea to make flowers.  I was looking to do something delicate.  But I poured too much paint!  Once I started blowing out the paint (using a straw), the colors took over the canvas!!  That's not a bad thing if that's what you're looking for!! Ha!

Since delicate was the look I was going for, I gently laid a napkin on top -gently!!  To pick it up, pull up each corner and slowly lift it off.

Viola!!!  This was the outcome!  I love how the colors became more delicate and mixed!

Local Art Program with Youth

Our local Piedmont Arts Association had a grant that enabled our area at-risk youth to participate in an art program for the last 6 weeks.  I was blessed to be asked to help the local artist Jessie Ward.  I was able to incorporate my Social Art Networking designs into the class.  The teens did a great job!

At-risk teens are becoming more and more common in our society.  With all the bullying, drugs, split homes and financial poverty surrounding us, our kids hardly stand a chance.

If you see this post, please pray for our kids and youth every day. They are facing adult situations beyond their control a lot of times.  Unlike a lot of adults, they hold a lot of it inside.

This is a small example of how I pray Art can heal cracked and broken hearts.
