31 Day Acrylic Pour Challenge

I decided to participate in Cinnamon Coony AKA The Art Sherpa's Acrylic April this year. I've been watching her videos over the last couple years, and I finally decided I wanted to improve my skills, so I did it. 30 paintings in the month of April.

She has a group page for this who participate in the challenge and one of those members asked if she could do an Acrylic Pour for the challenge. Cinnamon has word prompts is you don't want to do her paintings, so I guess you could, but I started thinking, "challenge accepted." May would be my challenge month to do an Acrylic Pour a day.

Some I have to film ahead of time because of things happening, like events or holidays, but I post them every day! I post sneak peaks on my Instagram and Facebook. I even

Here's some from the first 6 days. 

Hopefully someday I will grow my YouTube. I would love to do so more tutorials of all kinds of art. So we'll see what happens!
