It's good to see that someone with your experience can still get it wrong. You've shown me not to be scared to experiment. 🇬🇧

Great to see life back to "normal?" Kids graduation and 🥳 it! Those your people missed out on so much social time. Glad your taking vacation. Beautiful work as usual. I do miss you blowing with your mouth on your blooms! Liked seeing your hair and the control of you being bossy where the paint was going!

[@judyhyland682]

I love watching you, Karen!!! Gorgeous!

[@deenagleason1225]

Well I really love your stuff and I'm hoping that I can get somewhere where I'm proud of each one but it's I've been doing this for years and it's just always an experiment it seems.😮

New haircut? Your hair looks awesome today. Good luck at the show! Beautiful paintings.

[@wanparaph]

I'm in Idaho. You're mistakes are way better even the best I've done. So it's kind of hard to hear you complain about them Lol Great work I'm new to your channel I'll check you out some more.

[@charlenemultach1692]

You do such a wonderful job. I love your blooms.

[@angilunsford8466]

I liked both of the first 2. I don't know if you didn't over because I didn't want to see another beauty destroyed. I'm just learning to do this kind of art, and the second one you did on this video would have been perfect for one that I want to make for a friend.

[@nancydunston1215]

All very, very pretty!

[@donnasedgyartdeejulia5821]

Your artwork is always just awesome! I really enjoy your videos Karen thank you for sharing!!

[@HopeDesigns]

Very pretty! Congratulations to your baby! They grow up so quickly 😢

[@gratefulcreations]

Nice video!! The base paint differences from essentials to premium is remarkable!! I love the colors in the first piece but they are all fab!! I usually turn my fresh bought paint upside down for a few hours to let the stuff at the bottom rise to the top. But I like your hack too! It’s a must try!!

[@WaterfallAcrylics]

I do that too! Should’ve mentioned it!

[@robertawills7219]

I often store my paints upside down.

[@gratefulcreations]

I did that once with one of those Home Depot paint lids though. Not recommended!! Lol 😂 leaked everywhere

Thanks for sharing your hack. Gteat idea. I will definitely try that. Love the colors of the first o e you did.

[@andreasantora]

Terrific lesson you gave here💕 thank you for sharing your expertise 🙂

[@cheriscreations7899]

Absolutely gorgeous..glad you scraped and scraped 😆the last one as it turned out great! I have a commission piece that I have scraped twice now and waiting till my mood improves before trying again...grrr...love to watch you...have a relaxing vacation !

[@babybear4524]

How exactly does one scrape a canvas to get paint off but not damage the surface of the canvas? Thanks Cheri

[@louisenock6473]

Great idea - lovely pieces 😁

[@joannek5429]

Your hair looks amazing in this video. I just had to say something. 💯

[@LeftBrainedArtist]

Wow is all I can say.

[@brendacampbell3915]

I 💘 it all

[@marygidzinski8653]

Gorgeous results! I wonder if the high gloss look was from the new paint not being mixed up completely? Let us know if the glossy look continues as you get through the can! Thank you, as always, for your generous heart!

[@bostonbutterfly4473]

This is gorgeous Karen, these are my absolute favorite color combos. May I ask you how it is you can layer purple and yellow without getting a muddy blend? Just stunning 💜💛🧡.

[@deeaholman6872]

I love the turquoise but not enough contrast for me. But having said that, I absolutely love your blooms.

[@SarahMackArt]

Omg I just realized the first one is hanging in my kitchen 😂😂

[@babybear4524]

Sorry for so many questions just trying to learn. When you say the cool setting on the blow dryer do you mean the "no heat setting" or do you hold down the "cool shot" button the whole time? As far as the order of the paint,is it always best to alternate light and dark? Why do cells appear just from blowing air, I really never understood this? I was surprised that you scraped the wood twice and left in on the board.Weren't you concerned there might be too much paint in the center? What is it that causes you to dislike your work? Was it the way it was blown out or the paint order and when learning how to blow it out is it best to not blow hard so you see the pillow or what is the objective you have in mind? I feel like I want to know what goes through your mind as you say, Thats a big fat No",or "I like it" or other real time reactions because it would really help us newbies understand what makes for a "great piece" vs. "a not so good piece that you scrape". BTW your only one of a few who I have seen scape on camera and admit its not turning out well,which I really appreciate since it's nice to see that even awesome talented people can still make mistakes and be willing to admit it.

[@wanparaph]

Could you please say what the opacity is of the different pants as you're mixing them? No one ever says when they're mixing their paints. But I know that that's an important consideration.

[@lauradiazdelasernabarajas2145]

Hello! From México 🇲🇽❤️🥰

[@PiecesofTaraArtistry]

You are so amazing Karen. I’m learning so much. So quick question…when you say that you leave your glidden premium paint out overnight decanted…do u mean uncovered? I’m assuming that’s what you mean but u know what happens when you assume…😳😉

[@WaterfallAcrylics]

Yes!

[@dianedeczynski4251]

Holy Cow! That's beautiful! What a great tip. Are those cicadas I hear in the background? Are they still around?? So glad we don't have those in NH.

[@life.unrestricted.withmere7354]

Absolutely stunning! Thank you for your work and your instructions! I have a question: When you say "my cell activator paint", do you mean "just" paint? (In your instructions below the video it said that it's the last color before the blow out, but without pouring medium. That confused me. In other videos I saw people refer to the "cell activator" as it being the pouring medium itself. Can you help a beginner out? What do you mean with "cell activator" exactly? Thanks so much for clearing up my mental mess! M.

[@WaterfallAcrylics]

For the bloom technique cell activator refers to the one color mixed with Australian Floetrol and all the other colors are mixed with the pouring medium recipe.

[@JonathanSumner1]

Great tutorial! And results! Are you able to tell me what spinning stand you use? (I have had bad luck with them not spinning well!!!)

[@WaterfallAcrylics]

A cake spinner from Amazon. It’s in my Amazon shop under paint supplies. Link is in the description section.

[@marlyndataylor2925]

Love those colors together. I’m learning so much about composition from you. That second one has gorgeous colors. Love that purple! That cell activator seems to be taking over on the third version. Not many focal points on it.
