Do you feel like your abstract acrylic paintings look flat and lifeless? Create interest in your abstract painting with quick texture. In this video, I will show you how to use dried acrylic paint peeled off your palette to add instant texture to your abstract acrylic paintings.

For this abstract painting demo, I used a variety of colors such as Prussian blue, ultramarine blue, cerulean blue, light blue permanent, alizarin crimson, permanent magenta, cadmium orange, titanium white, and Payne's gray acrylic paint. I also used an acrylic gel medium, a palette knife, a filbert brush, a $1 brush from the hardware store, and my hands.

Not only is this technique quick and easy, but it also allows you to use leftover paint that would normally go to waste. Simply peel the dried acrylic paint off your palette, and then apply it to your paper with a palette knife or brush.

What's great about this technique is that it's not limited to just paper. You can use this technique on other surfaces like canvas and wood panels as well, allowing you to add texture to any abstract acrylic painting you create.

With just a few simple steps, you can transform your paintings from ordinary to extraordinary. So, if you're ready to add some quick texture to your abstract acrylic paintings, be sure to watch this video and try this technique for yourself. You won't be disappointed!

If you want to take your abstract acrylic paintings to the next level, try using dried acrylic paint peeled off your palette to add quick texture. With this simple yet effective technique, you can create unique and dynamic works of art that are sure to impress. Give this technique a try!
