Welcome to the new Abstract Sun Art – Mixed Media Paint Pouring tutorial. In this fluid art lesson, we will do a Sun mixed media project. This one is going to be a lot of fun because I want to try something new. I’m going to use my hoops in a new way. We’re going to use them to create separation or separate fragments inside of the pour painting. 

And with this separation, I want to achieve the effect of radiance that comes from the center of sun acrylic painting. And once my fluid acrylics are dry, I’m going to use a new mandala art stencil to create a textured design. That’s going to represent the Sun with all this light that comes from it. “Sunkissed” is a secret message for this abstract painting.

Here this abstract sun painting is dry, finished, and I used a little spray varnish at this time just to add a little bit of gloss but still keep all the texture that I created in my designs. And I think this fluid painting, it has a very modern look. But at the same time, it has a little bit of boho style vibe. I just really love how the texture of my abstract sun-inspired mandala turned out. I did this dabbing motion when I applied my gel and paint, and it created little picks in the design, it also blended the paint so beautifully. I love it so much, totally going to do it again. I hope you enjoyed the process and looking forward to hearing from you! Happy creating!
