Beautiful Swipe & Shmear Acrylic Pour Technique!

Beautiful Swipe & Shmear Acrylic Pour Technique!

A word of warning for those who may want to try this technique. Once you start schmearing you never want to stop! I love putting shmear on my bagels, and now I love to do it to my paintings!
I was inpired to try an acrylic pour "swipe & shmear" after watching my friend Amy of Amy's Creative Acrylics do some on her channel.

I used Amsterdam Titanium White as my schmear color hoping it would create some beautiful cells and effects, and I was not dissapointed! It was really hard to put the palette knife down, and call this painting finished. I worry I may have overworked it a bit. But c'est la vie. I will just have to do another one using the swipe and shmear technique! lol

Materials Used
Base: Artist Loft Flow Acrylic White
Shmearing color: Amsterdam Acrylic Titanium White
