I asked my audience what questions they had about acrylic paint pouring. 13 viewers asked questions and I answer them in rapid fire format.

1. Suzanne VanDoren - What are your thoughts about framing your art? If you want to frame a piece, have you made the frame yourself, and if so, how?
a. The Creative Glow - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CPpLJGu14r4
2. Hayley Garvin - What’s the method to layering the cup? And another question is have you, and is possible to use the neon black light paints?
a. Harmony House Art - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-IkpFb-QnII
b. LBA Layering Paint - https://youtu.be/4ollf1RthuU (transparent, opaque, transparent , opaque, etc)
3. Michele Penning - What is the best kind of varnish for an acrylic pour? Do you prefer one method over another? How long will the varnish last? I have been spraying my finishes. Wondering about resin or gloss varnishes.
a. LBA - https://youtu.be/_Sa2aJFkqhY (4 different varnish finishes)
4. Maggie Frommer - My question is, the canvases and some small ornament sized tiles that I varnished with Liquitex, can I epoxy resin over the varnish?
5. Billie Dean - Probably a stupid question but I often wonder if artists do anything to "fix" the back of the canvas after creating.
6. Shadow Soulless & 3D Sock - What are your favorite colors to work with?
7. Chrissie Burke - Do you think a spray mirror paint could make a successful swipe?
8. Rachelle Shonka - I'm wondering how people clean all the build up off of their jumbo push pins, so they can be level again?
9. Camila Souza - What about using cheap canvas, like Dollar store, will it affect the look of the paint? What do you recommend?
a. LBA - https://youtu.be/0dp7AEASsbo - canvas panel warping
10. Paint with Pencil - When and why did you do your first pour?
11. Carolyn Brew - Where is the density chart?
a. https://leftbrainedartist.com/acrylic-paint-density-chart/
12. Cat Pender - Your opinion of tri art liquid glass?
13. Chrissie Burke - Is it possible to fix a cracked pour?
