#1 - Paint Blowing Technique (Dutch Pour)

[@lindaames4126]

happy 5 year anniversary. A great first tutorial, enjoyed on 19 Feb 2024. Congratulations!!!!🥰

[@lesleyodea3303]

Amazing how things have changed for you since this your first video . The difference between this video and your latest one is phenomenal.

[@mywifetheartist]

Before I watched today’s video I had to revisit your first video. You are right, five years you have come a long way. Congratulations on 5 years. I have been following you a long time. You and Mixed Media Girl are the two channels that got me inspired from the start and loving this fluid art so much. ❤❤❤. I never thought I would meant you and Mixed Media Girl and so many others at the art classes. Such a wonderful experience.

[@KanellaCiracoArt]

Wow, thank you!

[@nancydunston1215]

And, now it is March 2022!!! Great job and, YES, you have come a long way!

[@GrandmaMSanger]

One year later and look how far you’ve come. I’m so proud of you!!! I’ve been with you since March of 2019. You are one of the first artists I saw. You gave me inspiration. God Bless you girl!

[@lauracrawfordmetz1630]

3 years later and look how far you’ve come and what beautiful work you do now 🎉

[@KanellaCiracoArt]

Aww thanks ☺️

[@Msquared112]

I've watched a LOT of your pouring videos and have just now, at the age of 78, done my very first pour, a Dutch pour. I'm so pathetically hooked, I can't stand it. It turned out remarkably well for a first time. Was hoping to email you a copy for your critique, but you probably have gazillions of people wanting you to do the same thing, so I understand if there's no way to do that. Still, I wanted to thank you profusely for giving me a brand new take on life. Amen, sister!

[@KanellaCiracoArt]

thanks so much for the kind words

[@Prettymilkduds5235]

Wow I have been watching your videos you are just amazing I am now going to watch you from #1 to where you are now in 2023 just beautiful

[@KanellaCiracoArt]

That’s going to take a while 😂

[@sueparsons6073]

just started watching a few weeks ago and have learned so much! I thought id venture back to video one. Your technique has changed dramatically! i am having so much fun doing blow outs! thanks Kanella.....

[@KanellaCiracoArt]

Haha it sure has.

[@Kathy-Carr]

I was surprised at how many people have commented in the first part of 2021, 2 years later. And now 135k subscribers! Congratulations!

[@laradas6043]

How far have you come, Kanella, after two years...it is your determination, perseverance and dedication that inspire us all. You are very meticulous right from the beginning. Bravo 👏

[@GGG.793]

I’m starting here and going through them all, you are teaching so much💞thank you for that🦋

[@laritalovesmakeup]

I had to go back and watch video #1 again. One year has passed so quickly. 💖💖💖

[@christy7635]

Can’t believe I never saw your first video! You were a good teacher even at the beginning 👏👏👏 Beautiful 😍

[@joannepowers82]

Just watching this video for the 1st time. You are now at #300. You have come a long way but you did really well since the beginning.

[@Sarah-zg5qs]

Manitoba here, Love the video, the colours and the final outcome. IT's good to see Canadians on you tube

[@KanellaCiracoArt]

Sarah thanks so much for the kind words! And yes, it’s great to see more and more fellow Canadians 🇨🇦 eh? Lol

[@milleraz221]

Loved to see your very first video. I have just discovered your art and instruction. Your attention to detail is perfect…. Even with your first video. Thank you! 😊

[@KanellaCiracoArt]

Soooo old hahahahha my gosh 😂 I’m so much better now 😂

[@nitawilson5283]

It’s amazing to see how you have progressed! Great job, Kanella! Congratulations on two great years!

[@TheBlueShedGarden]

Hi Kanella, I’ve just started my own KZbin channel and thought I would pop back and look how you started out. I’m based in the UK so some of the supplies you use are not readily available to us so I hope to experiment and see what I can come up with to share with others who may be struggling. I’m not confident on how my channel will go down and I’m not talking (yet) 😂 your work has inspired me so much, thank you 🙏

[@virginialaster4035]

It looks like a flower. Very pretty

[@NvyVet]

Hi kanella it is September 13, 2020. I’m in Rhode Island sitting outside, it’s getting a little chilly I decided today I’m going to watch your videos from beginning to present day. It’s a journey I’m looking forward to I can’t wait 😊. Let’s see how long it takes me, I want to watch every single one. I will be also other artist you mention here and future videos I’ve watched. This is my COVID-19 therapy, being an disabled veteran also with PTSD and I have very limited funds I can’t invest all the money to start. So...I’m creating soul and health through you and others. God bless 🙏❤️

[@KanellaCiracoArt]

enjoy the videos!

[@SandraBettsArt]

Seeing this video and watching your progression as a KZbinr has helped me get closer to being brave and posting a video. Thank you for everything.

[@rocknrollmom86]

I've been watching you For several months now, And I just happened to discover this, your 1st video!! I can't believe how far you have come in such a relatively short amount of time. You truly have grown!! I will say, I couldn't imagine one of your videos without you saying "don't forget to scrape your drips" or "ooooo....look at that shimmer" 😊 thank you for continuing to teach and inspire us all!!! 💙

[@KanellaCiracoArt]

Hahahah thanks!!!

[@pattiwerthen4747]

Ivecwatched you many times. I cant believe I found your first video, thank you so much for showing us how you mix your paints. I bought new paints. Found my sons scale hecwas hiding. And mixed up my paints for a ditch pour... your the best.

[@pattiwerthen4747]

It's cold outside my fingers cant type. Lol

[@jessicamartorano9432]

Pretty cool to go back&watch ur 1st video. I just started pouring in Feb, but have only started attempting Dutch pours for a couple weeks now. It's one of my fav techniques now.

[@elainelee6741]

So glad I found your first video. You have come a long way. The painting is beautiful.

[@KanellaCiracoArt]

Thank you so much!

[@corinneblackburn4043]

Beautiful painting! Great job!

[@tina-ec7ce]

It’s been fun checking out some of my favorite KZbinrs earlier videos.. actually you say this was your 1st one … it turned out Beautiful too It’s interesting to see the progress & changes in styles along your path You are SO talented and so inspiring! Ty for sharing ♥️

[@deborahknight9985]

That was fun to watch! Wow what a difference 2years have made congrats on your 300 video

[@karen.hendershot8131]

Where is flipping through I ended up at your very first painting that is cool what a great way you got started right now I'm currently watching the All about that Bass series that you're doing while you're currently getting ready to move enjoy that surge of this picture enjoy all of your work and as you'll hear me saying later on I say happy pouring happy life

[@rechellethackray]

Have been a subscriber since early 2022 and absolutely love your artwork. Was curious to see your very first video and just loved it. Going to make my way through all of them to see how you have grown as an artist. Can't wait 😁😁😁🥰

[@dleigh4534]

Oh wow Kanella!! You have really come a long way in two years and mastered this technique and really made it your own!!! I love you and your art is so amazing. Happy 300th video 🥳🥳🥳

[@perfum999]

Wow, couldn't believe it was your first video. I love the way you explain everything, from the paints used to the mishaps that can happen. Some artists don't say a word or show how they mixed their paints, leaving so many questions. Please don't change your style. The picture is beautiful. x

[@KanellaCiracoArt]

awww thanks so much!! yes, I try to explain everything I can... people can't learn if I am not explaining...

[@mattersofthehartbynat8815]

@@KanellaCiracoArt This is so very true Kanella… you have been my guide and mentor from the beginning of my fluid art journey… and now I am looking back on where it all started for you!! I love to see how you have evolved and created your very own, unique style. You are truely an amazing inspiration to me… and, quite obviously, to thousands of others! I hope you occasionally take the time to sit back and think about how really profound that is… well done Kanella!! Much love from the land down under! ♥️♥️🇦🇺

[@deborahrech7429]

Beautiful! Interesting to see the Dutch pour on the big 20” round MDF board. Thanks for sharing.

[@KanellaCiracoArt]

Deborah Rech thanks Deborah!! It was my very first ever attempt at the Dutch pour - you’d think I try it on a smaller piece. 😂 Nope! Go big or go home 😝

[@rachelboyer9509]

It would have been cool to recreate your first one on your two year.

[@lorisegar6914]

You make it look sooooo easy ...... Love the colors....... Great job.
