What is pillow paint?
Is pillow paint even necessary?
Can I make my own pillow paint?

This acrylic pouring tutorial takes you along the journey of making your own pillow paint and understanding paint terminology and why it is so confusing! The recipe used in this video is:
2 PARTS American Floetrol + 1 PART Elmer's Glue + 1 PART Student Grade Paint + 1/2 Part Tube Paint (higher quality paint) + UP TO 1 PART Water (this will vary person to person). In this video I could have added way more water due to the paint sitting for a day or two between me actually using it.
