Like you could ever bore us. I love watching the whole process. Wonderful how they both turned out. Thank you for showing this. 🥰

[@jenniecooper7430]

I love watching the blooms that you create! A coupke questions....What are you mixing your paint with (ratio and product) and your cell activator is mixed with white? And what is your ratio for house paint/GAC?

[@marygidzinski8653]

Thanks for sharing Karen! Interesting comparison!

[@lesleylang3020]

Thanks for showing the American Fowetrol !!! The Ausie one is hard to get in Canada and you have been so kind to show your recipe. I just love the the outcome of your paintings. You have made me so excited and giving me such inspiration . I am so Thankful!!! You are the best!

[@slbslbsuzanne]

[@princecaspianofthesea5905]

Thanks for sharing Karen! 🤙🤙🤙

[@dianedompierre4488]

Bonjour Karen, as I told you yesterday, went out shopping this morning and bought Glidden paint. What a difference. I think I’m getting the hang of it. Thank you so much for your generosity. This video is absolutely awesome. Mille mercis. 👏👏👏👏💐

[@samanthasky4463]

thanks so much Karen, love learning from you.

[@annettehill6264]

Karen. I love what you did here and I have watched you many times. This gave me a lot of info that I needed. You did a great job in explaining and caring about your subscribers enough to show us what works best for US Floetrol and AUS Floetrol. Very great job and I thank you for sharing.

[@lauriecassada4787]

Thank you for the little spoon tip I love them..

[@teresacassidy8701]

Fabulous Karen . 💕

[@judyplant346]

Ok great comparisons and agree they are both scrumptious!🥰👏👏👏 I am looking forward to the formula and experimenting! Thank you so much!

[@harmony331000]

You just made my whole day, week,...month! I’m so happy to see this 😻✌️thank you for sharing

[@FluidArtbyChristineMorris]

Karen, Great tutorial for newbies doing blooms, very thorough and detailed recipe for those in US. Thanks and have a great day!

[@babs629]

I absolutely LOVE, LOVE, LOVE when your camera turns on....we see your smiling face...then you start to giggle!!

[@kian4753]

Hi again, I just saw the ratios at the end, it was so well organized, I appreciated it more than you know. THANK YOU

[@leestein2639]

I took a virtual lesson with Karen a few weeks ago and she's amazing! So kind and informative, but also hones in on where you need the most help - I highly recommend!!

[@gloriasgallery820]

Dry good tutorial! It shows what can be done without the cost of Aussie Flotetrol!

[@pambriney250]

That was great! I’m going to give it a try now that you’ve shown us that American floetrol can work. Thank you!!!

[@staceyrudolfi4267]

Thanks for this Karen. You're a genius...and a talented one at that.

[@ellishansen8115]

Hi Karen. Thank you so much for my two beautiful paintings a from you. I'm so glad I'm local, and was able to meet you. I love this video. It's taught very well, and very interesting to see the different products and their results. Keep up the beautiful work!!

[@JMoPainting]

I really need to get me some Australian Floetrol if the difference s that HUGE! Wow stunning!! Thank you for sharing your art with us!

[@MonicaMuil]

Now I see why the Australian one is so popular, love that one 100 % better!

[@tammyandersonart]

I'm happy you did this. There are so many people out there that truly believe that the type of floeteol their using is the reason why the bloom isn't working for them but I use nothing except American Floetrol and now you just also proved that its more about the consistency and the manipulation of the paints then anything. Great video Great art💗

[@WaterfallAcrylics]

Thank you Tammy!!

[@אילנהלרנר]

Thank you so so much I love you without knowing you I love you that because you ditch us to do something so special and easy way. Have a marvelous day and continue teaching such a great things to do. With love Elana

[@Stephanie_Hancock]

Thanks Karen, great video.

[@myshewa1]

Your the best. Your paintings turned out fabulous.

[@gratefulcreations]

Very nicely done!! And yes, you probably were a teacher in a former life. And you’re good at it!!

[@lynnrussell467]

Fabulous lesson, Karen! Thank you so much! Abs besutiful! 💕💕💕💕✌☝

[@dragonflyacrylics2542]

Thank you for sharing your recipes, tips and for your kindness🌺❤️🌺have a wonderful evening.

[@pattir2198]

Thank you so much for giving us another option for the bloom technique besides the Australian Floetrol! Can't wait to try it! Again, thank you so much for sharing with all of us!! 🥰

[@agould105]

This is the BEST instructional video I’ve seen in a long time! Your explanations were easy and I can’t wait to try this. This is a new technique to me and you explained everything wonderfully. Thank you!

[@michelledetoth7503]

Thank you so very much for testing all this and sharing your results with all of us! You are awesome and definitely one of my favorite "teachers" and influencers in my artistic life. Karen, you Rock!!!❤❤❤

[@kim99may]

Thank you for posting recipes long enough so we can screen shot and try them! I adore your art. You are funny too.

[@Lyricallor56]

Both beautiful!

[@FiandMe16]

Than you for sharing with us. You do such beautiful work! I really appreciate your experimenting for American Floetrol, and sharing so generously. Even writing it down for a screen shot! You have always been generous, I think you must have a beautiful soul. I watch a lot of pouring channels in bed at night. And don’t want to wake my husband. Since I don’t want to use ear buds, I will watch them without sound. But I can’t do that with your channel, because I enjoy your personality so much! You are funny and real and you tell great stories, thanks again for sharing.

[@sushigilmour9336]

You are the perfect instructor...clear and easy to understand and funny as well!

[@sandiroush9615]

Thanks Karen for showing the two differences!!! 🥰

[@susansilver2000]

These came out great thanks for the experiment

[@victoria33303]

Thank you! This is the only recipe that actually worked for me 😀

[@candacedowney9439]

Love the colors you used so pretty

[@underwoodRN]

Thanks for the comparison. Your blooms are so amazing. You and Erica Hughes tilt and stretch the best, in my opinion. I can get good results spinning but just can't nail the tilting, YET. Practice, practice, practice!

[@christiehaynie6729]

Beautiful and thanks for the recipes. By the way you’re never boring.

[@lalaloopsychika]

Karen (the good kind) I used your formula and it worked great! I was just using amster white and water, which worked well, but the addition of the glue in your formula added so much more structure to the cell lacing...I did three just to see if it came out the same ...it did and i love it! Thank you!

[@mandamorris7934]

I've watched this a dozen times Miss Karen...and every time I get a little braver... I dig your work and you and Miss Julie were my first addictions...and I've seen you scrape... hey its just paint right? Oh geez I'm so excited I might actually DO IT this time!! Thank you for being you.

[@brendaw8904]

You are a wonderful teacher. ❤

[@karenmanson1782]

👋 Karen. Both beautiful. Will practice my puffing as full of hot air 🤣. 🙏

[@danettemurphy1968]

That is so awesome. Thank you much! I definitely struggle with the blowing. From watching you I can see that I am Sooooo close. It became an obsession for a few months and I finally said Grrrr forget it. I will try again after watching you and your motivational video. 👍😉

[@dinacotten3240]

Thank you so much Karen!! You’ve given me a renewed interest in the bloom technique. 😘

[@loisschell2588]

99Oh, yes, you are getting really great. You are giving me goosebumps. Such fun!

[@michelleveilleux8058]

They are both beautiful, the cells are amazing.

[@jwiki1]

Cool beans! Great comparison and beautiful colors!! Thanks Karen! Lots of Aloha sent your way! ❤️🤙🏼🌺

[@woodworkinggirl2163]

i was so bummed at first because aussie floetrol is so expensive, but now i found this video and yah🤗 i’m so excited to try your recipe. i have bottles and bottles of American floetrol so now i want to play. thank you so much for posting this and making it so easy to copy your recipe. you have it so simple to follow, i much appreciate it❤️christy from Va

[@lisadumas6422]

Awesome , thanks for sharing . Its beautiful .

[@elysefontaine2601]

Very helpful.. Thank you. Moss green is beautiful like that second Bloom. The minwax is a game changer!

[@karenkelleher989]

BTW, I loved your resining, and could see how it brought everything up and it all popped! Now, I am hooked! I have used over three gallons part and three gallons part B, in a month!!!! omgeezers!

[@cynthiasterling7892]

Thanks for showing the U.S. Floretral. ( l’m sure it’s probably the same as Canada) where l live. I heard the Aussie Floretral makes more cells. Yep the Aussie does produce more cells & lacing. I heard it was expensive to order it from Australia. Too bad they couldn’t make the same in Canada/ U.S. Thank You for showing the difference. I watch Gilly Kube in Queensland and she has so many cell’s & beautiful lacing. Thanks again Karen for your trial. ♥️💕

[@caciliaeferl1094]

Everything what you make is special.....! Love it! Cäcilia 🙏🤗🤩

[@pourartistacrylicsbyshanno3987]

Beautiful work. I actually like the way the American version turned out just a tad more than the other but I can't say that has anything to do with the floetrol. Thanks for sharing this. It's hard deciding which medium to go with sometimes.

[@dany3131ify]

thanks Karen need to practice more thanks so much

[@pennykay6381]

Beautiful results Karen! Now I need to experiment! You are such a great teacher! 😃 I didn’t get the chance to enjoy your auction 😔 yesterday was one of those days! Thanks for being thoughtful and sharing you’re knowledge with us! 🌹

[@Fiona-Art]

Waw... I love those twins... And colours... OMG 🥰🥰🥰

[@loriann9416]

Thank you for taking the time to show us how to do this, it’s very helpful.

[@dafadilly615]

Great job! Yay!

[@ocean8434]

My favorite video of yours! Exciting to see how they both work! Aloha !

[@catpender9807]

You are the greatest ❤️

[@vanessapearl8213]

You are amazing! I played around with the American floetrol and wood conditioner before the quarantine and thought I was doing it wrong because I was getting fairly chunky lacing. I got mad at it and it’s just been sitting in my art room ever since. The question really is why did I get mad at mine and then you do it and I’m totally in awe lol. You have inspired me to play with it some more, thank you!

[@colleensandy3219]

Thank you I have COPD so I think I'll try the dryer.

[@janetvanscoyk6016]

Thank you Karen how helpful was that it was great I've been struggling and I can't wait to practice this thank you thank you thank you. And thank you one more time this really means a lot you're the best I love watching your videos

[@chrrydoll4078]

[@ellenjent4956]

I love the instructions, as that is how others like myself learn. I so appreciate your artistic abilities and all the artist on youtube that share their talents and techniques with newbies. Thank you, I love the colors and the results. I use American Floetrol, so I will have to try this technique.

[@karenkelleher989]

I do blooms with regular white paint, too. and american floetrol.
