Crazy Bucket Pour Painting

Adult Classes | Available

This class builds upon the skills taught in the previous pouring class, expanding your knowledge and technique mastery. Weekly demonstrations will be given, so students will learn the crazy bucket pour method. You will find this class to be inspiring while also challenging as you need to have some muscle to pour with a bucket over the canvas. You will be holding the pouring medium over the canvas for a length of time to create the design, so you will need to have a steady hand and the strength to do so. My teaching style is to encourage engagement between students and instructor, as well as with other students. I want students to succeed on their artistic journey by gaining insight and knowledge. I provide demos, inspiration, and active involvement in my student’s expression while offering guidance and direction.

  • For the first class, bring 2-3 canvases, and other materials listed below.

    Wooden or cotton canvasses—purchase at least 12 canvases

    I recommend any of these sizes: 20” x 20” or 18” x 24”. Please keep in mind that you may need more canvases depending on how you work.

    I recommend purchasing wooden canvases online. They are more expensive, but they are also sturdier than cotton canvases which can sag.

    You may want to use a hair dryer and if so, you will need an extension cord

    Paper towels

    Painter’s tape

    Acrylic paints

    You will use a lot of white, so you may want to purchase Artist’s Loft brand in the large one-quart container, which is inexpensive. Also purchase black and some other colors. The brand of paint does impact the piece, so I recommend using: Golden (high flow, fluids or heavy body), Master’s Touch, Amsterdam, Deco Art Americana Décor Metallics, and many more (this is not an extensive list, just suggestions).

    I recommend only purchasing a few colors of paints for the first class.

    After the first class, you can then decide what other colors and brands you would like to purchase.


    You can purchase supplies at: Michaels, Jerry’s Artarama (online), Dick Blick (online), Jackson’s (online), Holbein Artist Materials (online), and many other retailers.
