Swiping with 4 tools - side by side comparison

2 years ago
21

When it comes to the acrylic pour swipe, we have lots of options for which tool to use as our swiper. I compare a plastic swipe tool, a drawer liner, a dry paper towel, and a wet paper towel to see how the swipes are different.

The swipe tool you use might be part of the problem why you aren't getting the results you are looking for.

In this experiment I don't use any silicone and only vary the densities of paints that I am using to produce cells. Creating abstract art with a swipe is easy and can create some amazing cells and effects.
