Heart of Enchantment: Fluid Art Gallery

I got into acrylic fluid art a few years ago and I simply fell in love with it! I've painted for many years and as an artist, it was hard to cope with the realization that I could no longer paint detailed portraits like I once could. It nearly crushed the artist in me for good! I would try, and try to deal with the pain but after only 10 minutes of giving it my all, I'd crash every time.

While I was pregnant with my son, I had developed a severe case of carpal tunnel syndrome. It was so serious that I would go days at a time with hardly any sleep. The numbing pain stretched from the inward side of my shoulder blades, all the way down to my fingertips. I'd even say it caused more pain and issues than the actual birth of my son. Over time, the pain decreased, and today it isn't quite so bad... But creating art digitally is much gentler on my hands so that is what I do now.

When acrylic paint pouring came into my view, it changed everything for me as a painter! I finally found a way to express myself through color scapes! And although I wasn't very good at it when I started, I quickly learned standard formulas for pouring and began to create my own formulas as well.

Here are some of my favorite paintings, in case you were curious to see them. I did have them on Zazzle for a while available on many products, but they didn't sell very well. In fact, after 2 years of having them in the market place... not one of them sold. I'm not afraid to admit that they aren't "Masterpieces" 😂 , but more than anything they mean something to me. Just not everyone else 😂 But in any case... Here they are!
