Tortilla Flat, AZ

While camping at Lost Dutchman State Park, we drove to Torilla Flat Ghost Town for lunch.

The saloon bar stools are saddles.

One size fits all.  Barely.

Unique ceiling fans that rotate around the light.

An estimated $200K in $1 bills are tacked to every vertical surface.

And they serve a darned good lunch.

Light and Bright

Four different acrylic pour techniques with white negative space.

Balloon Smash

Paint is poured or dribbled in small areas on canvas, 2-3 colors each, 

then squished and spread with a inflated balloon. 

Dip

Paint is poured and dribbled onto plastic sheet, canvas is laid face down on sheet, 

pressed into the paint, then lifted very slowly, top first.

Swipe

Paint is poured onto canvas randomly or in stripes, then swiped with wet paper towel.

I used alcohol with this one to create cells. 

String Pull

Cotton string is soaked in 2 or more mixed paints, then laid on canvas in zigzag pattern 

and pulled slowly towards the bottom of the canvas.
