schmincke acrylic medium pouring

Pouring technique - a hot trend in acrylic painting!
For this technique, mix acrylic colours with Schmincke Pouring Medium, stack in alternating coloured layers in a pouring cup, and pour onto your painting ground. The colours flow - depending on the mixing ratio with the medium and the composition - more or less uncontrolled into one another and form spectacular and bizarre results while drying. For more information, see the Acrylic Pouring Techniques article on our blog.

ABOUT SCHMINCKE
Schmincke began at the end of the 19th Century, when the colour chemists Josef Horadam and Hermann Schmincke saw an opportunity to provide the artists of the day with a truly superior artists oil, and so set out to Italy where traditional studio painting was still taught, in search of the nearly forgotten resin oil formulations.
In 1881, at the Academy of Fine Art in Florence, they secured the precision formulations of the Professor Cesare Mussini, a guardian of the old masters techniques, and on these formulations, the two founded their manufacturing establishment under the name H.Schmincke and Co.

In subsequent years, artists’ colours to suit all techniques were introduced, such as Josef Horadam’s patent watercolours of 1892. Through the entire 20th century, every generation of owner has lead the company to its current position as one of the worlds leading manufacturers of finest artists’ colour.
