It is probably not surprising to most acrylic pour artists that how you layer color for your acrylic pours is really important. No one wants to get muddy colors to ruin their pour.

You also want to layer your fluid acrylic paint so that you amplify the colors you want to be more prominent and keep the other colors more subtle.

Color theory does play a part in how you layer your colors. Complimentary colors will create more muted muddy colors when placed next to each other. Colors closer to each other on the color wheel will make much more appealing mixtures.

For beginner acrylic pour artists I recommend you layer your pour paints with alternating transparent and opaque colors. When you have more of one type, try to ensure the two like types when put together aren't matched with colors that are too dark (for transparent) or too opposite on the color wheel for opaque colors.
