449. WOW! Learn How To Create A GORGEOUS Fluid Art Abstract Painting!

#fluidart #deconstructedbloom #bloomtechnique
Hi! Color testing complete--thanks for the feedback in the last video! This will be a mini-series of this color palette--so no more than 3 or 4 painting because I already have another color combination in mind and I'm itching to try it! Plus, I have a big tutorial video coming out next week that will be much longer and more involved and I can't wait for you guys to see that one! Anyway, this is an 18" square cradled wood panel, and I only slightly modified it so it's not a true deconstructed bloom technique. I love the movement in this piece and think it's a great representation of fluid art/acrylics pouring. Let me know what you think!

*************************************************************
Colors/Brands/Pouring Medium Recipe:
House Paint-base aka puddle for the substrate: PPG Multi-Pro in Eggshell.
Pouring Medium aka PM Recipe: mix with all colors EXCEPT the cell activator:
Behr 8300 Untinted Deep Base Paint (Home Depot); and Valspar High Gloss Ultra Base C Untinted base (Lowe's). 50/50. Mix well. NO varnish added!
Brands/Colors mixed:
Pigments: For a 3 oz cup I add 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon of pigment powder to the cup, then add enough gloss varnish (any brand; I use JoSonja gloss varnish) to cover the powder. Mix well until all pigment is thoroughly wet; then add the pouring medium.
Golden Fluid Acrylics in Iridescent Bright Gold, and Quinacridone Nickel Azo Gold. This Little Piggy pigments in Enchantment and Waterfall. Holcroft tube paint in the color Princely Purple and Pool Party.
Golden, Atelier, and Da Vinci Fluid Acrylics: I put about 2-2 1/2 ounces of the pouring medium into a 3 ounce cup, then squirt in color until I reach my desired shade. Mix well.
For tube paint, I added an ounce of paint (heaping tablespoon) to a 3 ounce cup, then added 2 ounces of pouring medium. If still thick I add a squirt of Golden's High Flow Medium (thins and extends acrylic colors) and stir well. All pigments are 1/8th tsp. pre-disbursed with a small amount of JoSonja Varnish to wet it (stir really well), then add into a 3 oz. cup of Pouring Medium; stir well.
Cell Activator Color: Australian Floetrol + Amsterdam Prussian Blue. Approx. 3:1 Floetrol to paint.

Gorgeous! The little bee adds an extra special touch!

[@joanstrunk4715]

I have no words for this piece! I’m just a beginner painter, but this is magnificent! Love the color pallet, the beautiful composition, and your enthusiasm. I will also say watching your blowout has encouraged me to go “slowly” and with purpose. So many artist set their dryers on too high of a speed and lose that symmetry. Wonderful work!

[@david.b4798]

thanks ! awesome

[@annalisastrickland8044]

I love your hair trim/cut! So cute!

[@annalisastrickland8044]

This might be my favorite color palette yet, magical! The lines are stunning! WOW!

[@annalisastrickland8044]

Full confession...... I really loved the bloom, back at 6:00! That's me. I loved the lines around the blooms and the watercolor effect in those blooms. I just love your process, Karen! I want a whole room in these colors now (minimizing the red/gold as accents) 💜xo

[@anndwandner3664]

It’s magnificent. I was like oh no when you spun it and had that grey area. But you fixed it.

[@flodcreations2020]

Gorgeous piece honey. I love it!

[@aleksandrakozlowska9128]

Omg !!! Amazing!!!!!
