Welcome to Citrus Pour – Mixed Media Acrylic Painting for beginners. In this paint pouring art tutorial let’s try working with citrus color palette. I want to create something really bright and juicy and fun, so I want to work with a literally citrus color palette. I’ve got some yellows and oranges, and some greens for my negative space. And I want to try using my rings in a brand new way, instead of creating planets and just round forms, I want to go for actual citrus fruit forms. 

I want to position my rings a little bit off the panel frame. I really love working on longer panels. So, this one is 8 by 24 inches and I want it to be vertical orientation, but it’s much easier to work horizontal.

Voila! This abstract fruit painting is all done and finished with a layer of epoxy resin. This Citrus pour painting just totally gives me life. It’s so happy, vibrant and refreshing. And I honestly can almost smell citrus just by looking at it. I love the movement, it’s so dynamic and so juicy. The multiple shades of green worked out perfectly. But what I love the most is the parts inside of each fruit. So I’m super happy that I used multiple colors. All these metallics and iridescent colors, they shine super awesomely against the light. And I like that there is a combination of the fluid art technique, this fluid wispy movement and the more realistic painting. So this is quite an interesting mixed media combo. I hope you enjoyed the process and looking forward to hearing from you! Happy creating!
