Tree Ring Pour Workshop
Tree Ring Pour
A tree ring pour is a method of pouring acrylic paint. The paint is layered in a cup and then poured onto the canvas to form rings. The paint can be manipulated to make a painting that looks like the rings of a tree - hence the name - or it can be manipulated to look like layers. You can also do multiple ring pours on the same canvas for a different effect.
The sky is the limit with this technique and it is lots of fun to do!
Example using Teal & Orange
