STUNNING and so very helpful for us newbies, thank you so very much for sharing/teaching us!!!

[@JamieCreatedThat]

Really beautiful as usual. Great tips also thanks for sharing.

[@southernwaysdesign7744]

Wow this is beautiful and thanks so much for sharing the use of the prism pour paints very helpful as always and another beautiful painting thanks !!!

[@robertalordagarcia9992]

Good morning my favorite fluid artest,artist, pray this day finds you blessed and paint splattered. I pray that you are as pain free as possible 🙏

[@Circa.1984]

Absolutely stunning! I'm definitely not a beginner but I'm eager to try this out! Thank you for explaining all the steps so well❤

[@conesbymaggie1469]

I really like your style and your art. You're a very teacher and I thank you for sharing all you've learned on your journey. I've scraped a lot of pours, but I learn with each one and each video.

[@specialhandscreations2688]

Lovely Sharmin, thank you so much for taking your time to walk us beginners thru your beautiful art floral creations! Will try these new ways and hopefully my colors will no longer sink. I know now my base was entirely too much. I do have all the products so I will try both ways. Thx again ✌👍🤗💙🎨

[@claresmith9545]

I think that you also need to thicken your colours a bit to avoid the sinking

[@dcaloger]

Absolutely beautiful as always. And best of all you teach!!! I’ve been through so much paint and cannot get any cells. You are the best ❤️

[@MilkywayArtDesignBySharminKhan]

Thank you so much!

[@miriamluskberry]

I absolutely love your art! I’ve been pouring 6 months now, but have not tried this and I want to! Saving this video! Again, your work is gorgeous!

[@maxinefuentes3588]

This is exactly what I was looking for. Some basic questions answered. Thank you!

[@BogArt1]

Thank you so very much for your explanation of the consistency of the paint, the name of the paints and the way you design. This was very helpful. You are very talented.

[@karenavery3672]

Do you find the Australian Floetrol is a lot better than the U S Floetrol recipe so that it makes a big difference?

[@MilkywayArtDesignBySharminKhan]

Honestly it doesn't. In fact i prefer US floetrol for cell activators when I make flowers.

[@idda2002]

Si possono avere i sottotitoli in italiano per favore?

[@carenstevens693]

Good evening. I love your colors and the composition. I would love to try the next time I paint. It's absolutely lovely. God bless you and your family.

[@nanceo6351]

Thank you for this! I LOVE this art form and am very happy for the help here! I am going to try it now with a little more confidence. 🥰🙏🏼🥰

[@claresmith9545]

Thank you for this video, Sharmin. It is really good to have a starter vid. I have tried using the uk Floetrol for the activator and it doesn’t really work.. in uk I have had to buy 500ml Aussie Floetrol at £23 or so, so that is the expensive part. I have been using pea glue + water to mix the paints, which works well, but that pricey Aussie stuff!!!

[@dawnshaffer4329]

Just love your instructions .. watching you create .. appreciate you so much!

Sorry about the previous sentence. I just had 3 teeth pulled. Ugh.

[@vivasmomma9261]

Hi Sharmin. I love the colours in this piece. You have such a beautiful way of teaching us how to go forward with this technique. I realized that my base coat isn't thick enough. As always, I just keep learning more from you. Thank you for taking the time to help us all out. Take care and stay safe. Enjoy your weekend. 💖 from your friend in Alberta 🇨🇦.

[@jensenbabbie2415]

Thank you for making this video for beginners like me.

[@TracyBowman-Bowman4Art]

Thank you Sharmin, I bought them and they are not my favorites. But it says to mix them with medium on the directions that came with. But my bottles to mix them. I find they are to transparent. So I understand some are pour on snd some are not. I’m confused. Your painting was lovely did a fabulous job as always very inspiring.

[@MilkywayArtDesignBySharminKhan]

Tracy, Prizm pours are tricky at the beginning. In this video I didn’t mix with pm and it was okay but if you see my #163, I mixed with pm and loved it

[@babybear4524]

Above you stated "US cell activator: Proportion of US Floetrol, paint, glue all and Minwax wood conditioner is 4:2:2:1". What is the paint you are referring to? Is it the Amsterdam black? Is this an alternative C.A. recipe? You didnt use any PM recipe in this video so I figure it must be the C.A. is that correct? Then you said you use "8 parts Glidden white paint for your base",but what do you mean by a part,what measurement is that? Thank you Sharmin

[@MilkywayArtDesignBySharminKhan]

For CA the paint is Amsterdam Oxide Black.

[@jeanniesartadventures6146]

That's perfect. I started pouring in 2017, had a two year break because of house move, then had to relearn. I have bought so much stuff when I see new ideas, plus of course things I want to try but this particular technique, the whole bloom bit has been a real struggle. I'm getting there, having fun but consistency is a big issue. I've had base crack, even when I do thin layers, and other times it's been fine. I cannot get gac800 in UK, it's always out of stock! It's been on my list since I started, things I'd like to try. I now have ordered from US and should be here end of month 🙂 I also couldn't believe that Australian flotrol would be so different to UK flotrol but it is. Same thing with paint, my usual white and black, no cells, with the Amsterdam brand though it's perfect. I so wish someone had done a video like this when I started, to make it simpler and cheaper to try. Then once confidence is gained it's easier to try adding other things. Love your work.

[@MilkywayArtDesignBySharminKhan]

I am glad I could help. I used the prism pours to address the consistency.

[@babybear4524]

You can order the GAC on Amazon.

[@jeanniesartadventures6146]

@@babybear4524 in UK it's been out of stock for as long as I've been looking, so I've ordered from Amazon US now. Waiting for it to arrive.🙂

[@domimassou5457]

Thank you for sharing this with us gorgeous painting

[@terilechner]

The Prizm Pour should be mixed with your pouring medium. Per Leslie at Colour Arte told me yesterday that these should not be used right out of the bottle. That is the new directions she is sending out with all of the Prizm Pour sets! Just wanted to let you know. Hope all is well Sharman. The Blooms are Beautiful.

[@MilkywayArtDesignBySharminKhan]

Thanks Teri, but from my experience, not all of them have the same consistency. Some of them needs to be mixed, while others don't. You have to test them out yourself.

[@dallascallander1202]

" very "very "nice I love it also I have a question, can I also u se a acrylic base paint to start to ?? Cause I do have alot of acrylic paint instead of useing house paint to start off as mine base paint?? Thank-u love all what u do!! I have learn. Alot from u. Please keep it up ! I want to be good as u.😁😃

I have not tried with acrylic paint base yet.

[@sxylilrckstar]

This is such a calming and therapeutic technique. I’m looking forward to trying it at home. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and skills. Do you have a backup suggestion to replace Australian flotrol?

[@MilkywayArtDesignBySharminKhan]

On my next mixing video I will write down the US floetrol recipe.

[@sxylilrckstar]

@@MilkywayArtDesignBySharminKhan thank you so much! I don’t think the US flotrol creates cells. Would silicone still give the effect?

[@MilkywayArtDesignBySharminKhan]

@@sxylilrckstar It does. If you look at the description section of the video, I have the recipe for it and you will get exactly same result as Australian floetrol recipe.

Sharmin, I am glad you mentioned you use 2.5:1 Australian Floetrol to paint as my cell activator kept sinking as it was too thin. 😊

[@MilkywayArtDesignBySharminKhan]

Yes I know what you are talking about. Everywhere the recipe calls for 4:1, which never worked for me.

What can you use as cell activator,if you don't have aussy floetrol??? And at this point I can in no way afford prizom paint,or TLP pigments, so can decoart metallic be used in place of???

[@MilkywayArtDesignBySharminKhan]

I find Decoart consistency is a bit thicker so I mix them with my pouring medium and I love decoart. Check my earlier videos, I have the recipe for the us CA.

Thank you so much! I have tried blooms with limited success (paints were so thick that the hair dryer couldn’t blow them!) but now I’m going to purchase Prism Pour so I’ll have a better idea of consistency. I have been reluctant to purchase pigments because of the cost but that’s the next step. Can you do blooms with tube paints just as successfully as pigments? If so, could you do a video showing us how to mix them please? Thanks I love your paintings!
