This is another one of our projects completed during the stay-at-home order. I had purchased the supplies back in January, thinking we would have gotten to this project on a weekend. Well, all the weekends passed and we never got to it. Being stuck at home provided the perfect opportunity to work on this fun little art project. This is something we wanted to do and hang in the guest bathroom, once we completed the bathroom's facelift.
We set up a drop cloth outside and got some fresh air while working on this canvas. This was a great art project to do with the Little Mister. We used the Color Pour Pre-Mixed Pouring Paints in the colors indigo, turquoise, orange, white and light blue.
Because we wanted to try to get a color between the turquoise and indigo, we mixed the two a little.
At random, we added the other colors into the cup a clear plastic party cup. I let the Little Mister tell me what color he wanted to add next. When we added the orange to the cup, it kind of created a muddy color I wasn't crazy about. However, we just rolled with it.
Here is a picture of the Little Mister showing his excitement after flipping the paint cup on the canvas. This made his day.
Here's a video of our first poured acrylic experience. (It can also be viewed on my YouTube channel at
