One of my goals for 2018 was to push myself to try new craft mediums and projects and to branch out of my creative bubble. I decided to tackle one of the current trends and techniques that is all the rage lately, and to be honest intimidates me the most! I teamed up with DecoArt to create my own fluid acrylic poured canvas art, and I have to say I’m in love with this paint trend!
I’m sharing all the details and the supplies you will need for this project on the DecoArt blog and I would love for you to pop on over to check it out.
I’ve seen this creative technique pop up all over the internet lately and I love the way they look, but to be honest I’m completely intimidated by any kind of art or painting project like this. But, after stepping outside of my comfort zone and trying something new I’ve found a fabulous new art technique that I can see myself trying over and over again.
I’m curious, what craft project or techniques intimidate you? Is there something you’ve been dying to try, but are just too intimidated by the process to jump in? Let’s vow to tackle those projects this year and try new things! That’s the beauty of creating art or crafts, the process is half the fun and the joy and satisfaction you get from seeing the completed project that you made with your own two hands is unbelievably satisfying. So if you are like me and have been too afraid to try something you see and love, today is the day to start something new!
I can see this technique being used for so many fun projects and look forward to trying it on different surfaces and with different pouring techniques. Have you created your own fluid acrylic poured canvas art before?
Make sure you pop over to the DecoArt Blog for all of the project details and to check out some of their other creative art projects that will inspire you to try something new!

That looks so fun! My boys and I love experimenting with new art and painting techniques; though something that sounds this messy is usually only something we’ll tackle in the summer… outside! Pinned.
I hope to try out this technique… 🙂
Do it Jeanne, you will love how it turns out. The best part about this kind of art is it doesn’t have to be perfect!
Gonna try ! Posted to my page on Facebook DIY Diva’s . Thank you !
Oh, I can’t wait to try this. I want to do my daughter’s desk top after seeing your canvas art. Thanks for sharing at the Inspiration Spotlight party. Pinned & sharing.
Thanks Theresa, doing this on a desk would be so pretty!
This is SO beautiful! Love the color pallete you selected and wish I could buy this! Will definitely try this fantastic tutorial!
Very inspired by this and feeling motivated to try something new too!
Kindest regards,
Emily

Would love to see you in action on YouTube!
I just retired and finally can do art. I chose something I had never done yet, and it is liquid acrylic. I love it!
You are so sweet Jeanne, I have done a few Facebook videos for this technique but nothing on YouTube yet. Maybe I’ll give that a try next!
