Paint, Paints and More Paints?

 Which paints to use for Fluid Art??

There are currently so many different brands to choose from. Expensive down to cheap. Which ones are best for Fluid Art??

When you first start you might like to use less expensive brands, as, you will find that you most likely will scrape a lot of them and start again. So, using a less expensive brand makes sense.

As you gain experience I would then suggest to go to the more expensive well known brands. The quality is far better and the end result will show that. 

Which brands do I like the most??

Here is just a list of some of the brands I use. -

Amsterdam

Mont Marte

Global

Jo Sonja's

Artelier

Pebeo

Ofcourse, this is just a very small selection, there are so many more.  

Another thing you need to be aware of is their consistency.  Some are very fluid, some are quite thick.  Which is why when you mix them with your pouring medium to make them more fluid for your art, you need to take that into account. All your paints you use for one particular technique need to be the same consistency once you add the pouring medium. That is one little secret which I found out quite quickly. If any of your paints are thinner or thicker it will affect your end result.
