Nice!

[@CamileAmoyArt]

Wow...thanks for sharing 👍...you're awesome

[@yvencia1150]

Thank you for sharing 🎨🎨

[@Carole_Williamson]

Sorry, another suggestion about PPD’s. Wear dark gloves and a dark mask then you’ll be able to, and be amazed as I was, to see where all the teeny pigment particles end up. And they are not dissolvable, they make suspensions. So where ever those particles end up, i. e. lungs, airways, etc., they stick and stay. Just saying

[@jenrobicheau7986]

Thank you for playing scientist for us! I lucked out at hobby lobby yesterday and actually found both those gels on clearance so I will definitely mix some up. Also I am jealous of your husky cabinets, that’s my dream storage 🥰

[@HopeDesigns]

Helpful to have a video on this. And the bloom is pretty 😍

[@marywaspe]

Thanks Lisa ..love the studio and thanks for the lesson..the bloom is gorgeous.

[@tracytruhlarik9611]

Happy Easter. Love 💕 your new studio. So big and so much room. So lucky The bloom turned out really beautiful

[@pcornell3410]

Very cool. You have so much fun, its great to watch. Thanks for great tips - as always- your art is fabulous!

[@JenniferChu0319]

Wow love your studio!! Thanks for sharing and can’t wait to try after I receive my Australia Floetrol!! Yay!!

[@Carole_Williamson]

The PPG website will tell you the differences in the different countries Floetrol. Aussie is based of the American, but it changes with the local resins available and the country’s restrictions on local VOC’s. So Aussie Floetrol is truly magic.

[@terrykinney5258]

I watched a video from Jody (the painted dreamer) about using the US floetrol because she had seen a video that YOU did regarding it and it worked....... I can't seem to find either one. US Floetrol recipe for CA please! Thank you!

[@sjhill4452]

That's fabulous...!!! A little tip...check to see if your pigments are water soluble. I've had a lot of luck "blooming" my pigments in a few drops of distilled water. I make mine to a med body consistency. Mixes well with the recipe you use. This only works with water souble pigments.

[@lisamarvinart]

Great tip!

[@SKArtistry]

I’m so going RIGHT NOW to get the gels so I can try this today 😂

[@lisamarvinart]

😂 yay!

[@rebeccahorne2428]

Great info. Thank you! Congratulations on your studio!!!

[@PetraSchmitz-si1ui]

Ich,liebe deine Gemälde 🥰leider, bekomme ich das nicht so hin...ich übe noch !!! Lg Petra (Germany)

[@kl4334]

I love your new studio! I ordered a couple new cabinets today, they were pretty cheap! They will be either made of crap or I’ll never get them! Time will tell! I will order the gels and give them a try! I washed my glass jars, I store paint in, in the dishwasher! I hope it wrecks it! Great canvas! Love the colors! 🌹🌹🌹

[@angiesartkraftykreations3677]

Great video Lisa. Coming over from Garrick’s channel. Can’t wait for the TLP collab!! Have a wonderful day 🤗🦋

[@davehaskill1369]

Thank you Lisa!

[@nickmanno1]

Just beautiful as always. Your talent is always an inspiration and now that I’m back working my art is only for the weekends. Great job and thank you for the lesson 🌹🤩

[@joycedavidson895]

Nice big studio. That's awesome. I tried sapphire for CA but didn't work to well. I might have to play with it a bit. Thanks for the tips.

[@amymbeauty8765]

This was super helpful! I wish I could find a way to make cell activator without aussie floetrol though. I adore that I'm not the only one who's that messy 😂 The studio is looking fantastic, such a great space to be able to use!

[@lisamarvinart]

Thank you! I’ll be releasing a us flo video soon :)

[@StephanieJohnson-hj6lj]

Thank you for this video but is there something to use in place of the Liquitex? I use the Behr 8300/Wood Conditioner for my medium.

[@jeniferinps]

I love your new studio! I like to disperse the pigments in the gloss gel first then add the floetrol I will defiantly try the TLP pigments!

[@kjstarr2893]

Do you have any tips for reopening the Liquitex gloss gel? I used it for something else one time , and I for the life of me get I cannot get it opened! it's pretty pricey so I'm resorting cutting the bottom and putting it in a different type of container.

[@FloatingDreamsStudio]

Thanks Lisa! It looks great! 💕

[@TheLindsell]

I’m so excited I ordered some Liquitex gloss heavy gel & the matte gel & both arrived today woohoo, I can’t wait to try this recipe. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe, I’m very grateful because your explanation was very clear & easy to follow

[@lisamarvinart]

Yay! Have fun!

[@joeycasey2323]

Hi Lisa, I was just wondering if it was absolutely necessary to use half matte and half gloss gel for the shiny piggy's? I don't normally buy matte gel, but I always have the gloss gel on hand. What's the difference? The bloom is beautiful by the way!

[@karenstrong8887]

Nice studio. Where is my water and ice window? Thank you for showing me pigment mixing. I have 2 Canadian grandchildren. They came home with their parents at 11 and 12 years old. Sienna was sent to a posh boarding school and she has zero filter on her mouth. She is fluent in French and English. Her first day at school she was told to stand up in class and say good morning and how are you in French. She did it perfectly but she added on the end. The three morons in the front row will never know what I just said. 😳 The French teacher knew. At the end of the first year her Mother got called in by 5 teachers and the Principal. 😂❤️

[@lizwarner8524]

Thanks so much for sharing your recipe for a bloomie CA! I only have gloss gels and hate to spring for the matte gel just to experiment. Did it not work for cells without the matte?

[@brittanyhelgerson6978]

Is the yellow sherbet from piggy art considered a neon color?

[@marthaburge5209]

You use Josonja now instead of Liquitex?

[@ashleecohen732]

Hi lovely can u use jo sonjas instead of the liquitex?? For pigments ?? Thanks in advance xxx

[@desireeh1967]

How do i make celactivator with Amsterdam paint??

[@liletteautrey8481]

The neon colour you prepared , was it a cell activator or just a prep of the colour , merci davance

[@lisamarvinart]

Cell activator:)

[@pamabram8510]

It would be nice if you added the colors you use in the show more section.

[@jodietanino6955]

Double coolness. I like it! Curious..do you not wait for the middle to rise up before you spin? By this video, seems like you just go for it! Which is why I love your videos anyway, no over thinking! Being fierce and bold. Love your new studio! Thanks for the lesson.

[@cindyhirschman1923]

I’m wondering about using the deco art 24 k as the cell activator?.??

[@maedeer5190]

once these are mixed can they be stored to use for later? or do you have to use them right away?

[@lisamarvinart]

They can be stored in an airtight container for a while! I wouldn’t more than a month, but it’s possible!

[@gailk3136]

Clarification, please. The CA has to be a little thicker than the PM?? I'm getting gullies on dried pieces - does that mean my CA is too thin?

[@pandapuffs710]

What if I don't have matte gel? Is it okay to use just gloss gel for the non Neon pigments?

[@lisamarvinart]

You can, they just won’t be as crisp

[@pandapuffs710]

What does the matte gel do?

[@FiRsTlOvEyOuRsElF1433]

is it gloss and matte gel medium? Or just gloss and matte gel?

[@lisamarvinart]

They are mediums :)

[@strykerdays]

Does cell activator work on oil based enamel?

[@lisamarvinart]

Don’t think it would :)

[@megenporter7622]

Hey there Lisa! Is it 1/2 tsp Heavy matte gel or super heavy matte gel? I can’t Find a “heavy matte” exactly on Liquitex website? BTW - I absolutely love your personality and watching your videos and learning from all of your vast knowledge. Thank you so much for taking the time to share!!

[@megenporter7622]

I mean “matte” or “super heavy matte”- NOT finding just “heavy matte” like “heavy gloss”. Oh shit how many times can I type matte?!?! 🤣😜🤪 TY TY TY

[@lisamarvinart]

😂 whatever you find is fine! You’ll have to eye ball it anyways. So just add a little at a time if it’s super heavy :)

[@Carole_Williamson]

I’m pretty sure you won’t see this since the video was 3 years ago. But what is the name of the color of your pillow? And is it SW C2G?

[@ginaloveslife]

Your art is soooo beautiful but the mess of painting spinning off everywhere and on you makes me crazy lol. 😂 i get messy sometimes also. Lol. Your studio is so big. You are lucky!!!

[@carolynpomikal5637]

Could you tell me your 15% off for the shelee art class

[@donnacowell7415]

I just found you on KZbin. Where are you from?

[@michaelbarnes6142]

👊😍

[@MsToxicavenger]

Lisa, why do you even own white clothes!? 🤣😂😳 Also, you keep saying “gloss gel” - but it looks like the gloss heavy Liquitex jar. Am I wrong!? Which are you really using?

[@pattypabst6939]

You are very confusing
