I decided to do my first Acrylic Painting Abstract lesson using the hair-dryer, doing a blow-out, as that’s how I started doing abstracts back five years ago, on my own in the centre of France, during the Covid lockdown.
This one is quite simple to do, for beginners as there is not much detail added on afterwards, so it’s basic enough.
I’m using a few different colours. Red, brown, copper, silver, green, blue, turquoise, yellow and black, all on a white background.
I use Acrylic paint (Liquitex & Acrilico brands) & Acrylic Pouring oil (100% pure silicone).
This one turned out looking like me when I was a little girl, hence the red & black scraggly bits coming down the right side of the canvas & along the top of the canvas, looking like long hair, as I did have very long hair, all the way down to my back side, Ha Ha.
Each abstract I do is always a surprise as I am psychic aswell. I never really know how they are going to turn out.
I usually work on each abstract in two separate sessions adding on bits of designs, according to what I feel like adding on. That is the joy of Abstract Painting.
So, hope you enjoy the lesson & learn a few tricks from me. Maybe it will do you good & I hope it brings out your own creativity & source energy.

Enjoy!
