Love the vids of Mr. & Mrs. Right! #adorable ! Welcome to being an artist, Rob. Every true artist has scraped more than one canvas. Its not a failure in any form or fashion. Its just hitting the reset button when the paint does its own thing instead of what we see it doing in our minds. I admire you for your courage to try something new & way outside the box! Who'd have thunk it? Great video & I love & admire that you shared it with us even though you ended with a blank, "reset" canvas! Keep up the great work-both of you! ♡♡

[@RobLSmit]

Thank you Katie. I am not a true artist, just somebody who is having a great time being creative and having fun. Lots of fun. And most of the times i do like the results. And if not i just wipe it off, still having fun. The learning proces continues, so does the fun. Thank you for the kind feedback Katie.

Hi Rob! I love watching you pour and love to hear the interaction between you and Saski: the A Team! Don't worry about what may feel like a failure: we only learn by making mistakes and this may be your only mistake in acrylic pouring!

Mr. Rob, the colors you chose for this were really stunning! I was excited about this when I saw you were going to use a tire. You truly think outside the box, and have some breathtaking designs! I can't wait to see what you come up with again for the tire design. It did so perfect for the one side and the middle. I KNOW you'll get it worked out to be exactly as you envision the design. I really appreciate your time putting these videos on KZbin. I love watching you and your wife interact together.... y'all are such a precious couple! And you are a VERY talented artist!

I've done the same thing Rob don't even worry about it. It was beautiful the colors were perfect! I think you need to pour the paint onto a drop cloth roll the tire through that paint then roll the tire onto your canvas because the paint that was on the tire with enough that it would put a really cool impression onto the canvas so that's what I think you could do!

I loved the idea of the tire tracks. I was thinking a bicycle tire???? Easier to handle. I'm also thinking kids toys that have wheels ... potential for a lot of sizes to work with .... something to consider? Very interesting idea. Thank you and keep experimenting .... it's FUN!! If I may, I'd like to let you know what I saw ..... Abstract if you will but ... "The Grand Canyon." If the center were water running through the track marks on either side in reds, yellows, gold, brown, grey ... then I think that would have been awesome I think you just inspired me. Thank you.

There are no failures, only learning experiences!

[@jdot3345]

It’s nice to see the mistakes along with the triumphs! It just means you’re human. Besides, just seeing your creative process & yours & Saskia’s relationship is enjoyable enough!!!! BUT, if you want to try this “experiment” again, maybe use less paint so the pattern on the tire rolls better, or put the paint on plastic or another canvas & roll it on the blank canvas in 1 (or several) directions, OR try pouring the paint down the tire while it’s sitting over the canvas, that way the paint can either drip off the tire onto the canvas, or it can run down the tire a little, before you roll it across the canvas...this each color finds it’s own groove within the tire’s pattern to go down. Just a couple thoughts to add. 😊

[@RobLSmit]

Thank you Jennifer.

[@nancyroos898]

Your wife is absolutely right, when she said "we all scrape" That's the fun of it, is trying again!

[@PENFOLD1962]

Hey don't get discouraged Rob, I never get "TIRED" of watching your videos mate! You go where no one else dares, an imaginative mind is a creative one. Could you try covering the canvas with a solid colour such as dark blue, black or a deep purple? Then using a decorators paint roller, roll another colour onto the tyre itself then roll over the coated canvas leaving the tyre tread mark! I feel as though I'm trying to teach my Grandma how to suck eggs lol... please don't let this hiccup stop you from making more videos of you showing us what can be possible if we try hard enough! Your humour is second to none mate, the black canvas update made me laugh. You two take care care until next time 👍😆👍

Don't be too disheartened, Rob. I think this might just need tweaking. Maybe more of an all weather tire rather than high speed would move the paint more? And laying a base down as Saskia mentioned? Regardless, it's always fun to see the different things you come up with!! Thanks for sharing!!

[@mamalbug]

Maybe if you did the dirty pour on a piece of plastic then run the tire through it to pick up the color. Put your negative space color on the canvas and run the painted tire over the canvas. It'll work kind of like a dip and should give you some unique patterns.

[@RobLSmit]

Thank you Chris.

[@mamalbug]

@@RobLSmit update: I'm a curious type guy myself, so I tried it the way I was thinking. Didn't work. Although I used a moped tire instead of a car tire. There was only a little tread that actually touched. I did find that the only paint that gets on the canvas this way is where the tread is not at (the spaces). It might still work with a car tire because more tread touches and therefore there are more of the spaces. Oh I just had an idea while I was typing. What if instead of running the tire over the canvas we run the canvas over the tire. The canvas is lighter and you could put less pressure because of it. I'm going to go try it and get back with you.

[@mamalbug]

@@RobLSmit my second experiment was much better. Dip the tire in the pour and then put the canvas on it. You have to remember to use a light touch so as to not push the paint off from where the tread touches.
