"Gradient Fall Foliage"

Paint Pouring Abstract Art 🍁🍃

Acrylic Pouring Season Art Tutorial

Welcome to the new Gradient Fall Foliage - Paint Pouring Abstract Art video tutorial. This time, I want to create a pour painting inspired by fall foliage. Even how that sounds "Fall Foliage" is so romantic. 


So I want to create the flow painting that's going to be a gradient of colors with three main colors: green, yellow, and red, and pops of other colors as well just to diversify and create a really beautiful saturated color palette. And I want this fluid painting to be an abstract look, sort of wind playing with leaves. "Kiss of the wind" is a secret message for this autumn acrylic painting.

Acrylic Pouring RECIPE used for today’s flow art painting:​

Acrylic paint is mixed with water only to a fluid consistency. I add approximately 30-50% of water to my colors. There is no exact % or proportion because this ratio depends on initial paint viscosity, which significantly varies from brand to brand and even from color to color.

In this abstract autumn painting tutorial, I'm working on a cradled wood panel. I primed the panel, and I want to have my sides painted this time, so I painted them with Prussian blue just to prepare them before the painting.

Also, I want to go for a diagonal flow composition. This is my favorite layout. And I'm going to go from green on the bottom, all the way to a burst of yellows and reds, and oranges at the top. This is going to be the main gradient of colors and I want them overlapping slightly, and then I want to add a couple other colors.


Let's see how this creative autumn season art idea turned out. Without further ado, let's get started!

I love how this fall foliage inspired painting turned out! This is perfect. And you know what? This painting not only looks like a fall foliage but it also, I just realized that, it does look like a tree, very abstract one of course. This is a Dancing Autumn Tree. Oh, I love this gradient flow painting even more this way. Ah, so cool! I don't even know which vision or interpretation I like better Dancing Foliage or Dancing Tree. Is that a tree with this sort of wavy curvy trunk and the crown of the tree? Or is it just an abstract gradient and dance of Fall Foliage that sort of transitions from early fall all the way to late fall. I hope you enjoyed this acrylic pouring tutorial and looking forward to hearing from you!  Create with Passion!
