Aprhrodite Arrives! Stunning 24x24 Fantasy Pour! She's Beautiful 🥰

[@leahrolan1265]

Isnt it interesting that the pour creates its own personality? I did one after my friend died and it has a perfect red rose in the middle. These paintings are stunning and I see her too. Hair billowing in the wind while she looks out, showing her strength and majestic presence. Beautiful. Thank you for sharing

[@lindasamuelson1412]

I LOVE 💘 BOTH PAINTINGS but Aphrodies Arrives was just magical the way her face just appears after the fact. Sooo COOL!!! 😎😍💖

[@naptimecreations]

Gorgeous Mina ❤ Happy belated birthday 🤗🤗🤗

[@lizreynolds4554]

You are so dagnabbit talented. Your art shows your experience, your eye, your heart and soul. We all pray for what you have found in yourself. You judiciously choose parts that you want, and those you can put into the paint pot, you have a gift. Colors, patterns, shapes seem to come from a communion you have with the canvas and paint. I love your smile, giggle and talent, your kitty is charming too. Thank you for always explaining while you are working, it makes so much more sense. Thank you for sharing, caring, and inspiring. Huggles always, Liz 👩‍🎨🎨🖌😊🍀💖🦓🤹‍♀️🇺🇸😎

[@beashsimmons1541]

Absolutely inspiring Mina! ❤thank you❤

[@beramberh.4944]

Definitely see her and find this to be so beautiful to look at, my eyes wander all over and keep finding new bits that draw me in and love that!

[@lizreynolds4554]

Beautiful and brilliant. I love the painting that truly you can see her arrive. Thanks for sharing and inspiring. 🎨👩‍🎨🖌💖🍀🌺🙏💖 Liz From California,USA.

It went from a beautiful painting to another beautiful painting!!! Love love love the end the colors are gorgeous!!! You have took a 36o degree in your paintings and they have been breathtaking Mina!!!! I love seeing you to so happy and so much fun together just love y’all having fun n memories!!!

[@JuleeChristensen]

Love the deeper turquoise. Both are beautiful.

[@chrissyfrancis8952]

I saw her face right away, beautiful. Aphrodite arrived, Zen’s response, demands his cameo, rolls in the dirt, why? Bc he can, & then sniffed it off. HoA love the closeups on the paint/cup during the pour, showcasing Mina’s fastest ribbon or tree ring pour in the West!

Beautiful Mina and so cool! 💙🧡

[@ThisUtopia]

This pour is very nice Mina, thanks for sharing, it is so appreciated. I must say that Waiting for Aphrodite is still my favorite. I think it may be the most beautiful pour I have ever seen :)

[@williamking1766]

I like the fact that you work bigger than many who do pours on very small canvases. This was and amazing piece in the end. Several times I cringed when you tilted areas off, but in the end you did some awesome manipulations and it came out with truly beautiful details! Thanks for the paint menus, helps us rookies. Nicely done.

Waiting for Aphrodite is my all time favorite pour from anyone... So glad you took a turn with these same colors. Very complimentary of each other... Love this one also...Zen Rocks.

[@lizreynolds4554]

Looking at the two together, I see (again) a womb in the middle of "Waiting for Aphrodite. " and a face in "Aphrodite arrives." So cool . LIZ 🎨👩‍🎨🍀🌺🙏💖🇺🇸

I agree with you, she is beautiful! And you’re the maestro indeed! 👍

[@Coilylox]

Funny our our "frontal appendages" get in the way. I bet that paint went all the way through to your bra like mine did. Deliberately paint on your "paint shirts" and keep wearing them. I cringe seeing a new shirt get ruined. Love your art! Thank you for letting us watch you create.

[@alexlover76]

Oh wow AOA, HOA and the gorgeous Zen! I love this one so much. The turquoise waters against the copper of Aphrodite's hair is amazing! My friends go to a little Greek island every summer to play music and this just makes me think of them! Maybe you could do one of the Hawaiian volcano Goddess Pele, might be a cool one! Lot's of love from Northern Ireland xxxxxx

[@hoa8954]

✨We're fans of Pele, too!🌋 We've even witnessed her work firsthand 🌴🥥 We'd love to travel to Northern Ireland as well, land of me ancestors... 😉

You are AMAZING,

[@MinaVillegasArt]

You're very sweet, thank you ❤️

[@barbararogers9509]

It’s lovely. At first I didn’t see her face then it just popped. I’m still confused about the ratios you use. If time permits would you tell me where to look.

[@kerryhanley2930]

💜💜💜

[@Roxy4utube]

She's just beautiful Mina! I see 2 faces. The one you've pointed to and then where the copper begins to go darker I see her face sort of pointing downwards & her eyes closed, slight darker shadow of her eyebrow, very tiny nose and ever so tiny shadow of her mouth. Do you see what I see? 🧐 Very demur. Humble. Judging from where you were pointing I don't think it was in the same place where I see her. Perhaps her twin sister! Yes, she's truly gorgeous. This, in it's entirety is a magnificent Masterpiece! You are so pleasant to watch. I must thank you for these wonderful videos, your recipes & omg...your color choices. I am so taken by your cute laughs & deep breaths as you pour. 😚 What a lovely lady you are! What an awesome Artist you are! Love to you Dear Lady Mina! 🥰😊😘🐇💗

Do you, or whT do you glaze your paintings with? Or is the addition of liquitex gloss medium and varnish do the trick?

Thanks Linda! ❤️ I usually sign them on the side, or on the back of the frame.

[@descampsmarie3114]

Gorgeous Mina ! this lady is fantastic and i love the colors . I don' t miss one of your paints . I practice twice a week and i begin to make progress . My problem is to know how many onces of paint i must use for my canvas . I see yours is 24/24 , one artist says we must prepare 75 OZ of paint for these dimensions : ( 24 " x 24 " X 0,13 ) = 75 OZ ......do you agree with this calculation ? it seems to me you don' t have prepare so much paint . How can i evaluate the amount to prepare ? thanks

[@MinaVillegasArt]

Hello Marie! The formula to figure out how much paint you need is Length x Width then *divide by 28*... So 24x24=575, then 576÷28= 20.5714.. so you need almost 21 ounces for a 24x24.. not 75 😳

[@michellesallerson8201]

Beautiful. How long do you let your paintings dry before you varnish or resin?

[@MinaVillegasArt]

Hi Michelle! thank you so much! 🥰 I use Liquitex Gloss Medium & Varnish in my paint, so I never feel like I need to add an additional coat of varnish. We are supposed to wait 5 weeks for paintings to not only dry, but to cure, before they are varnished. Occasionally I will use a UV Resistant Spray Gloss Varnish if I want the Metallics to really pop, but it's not really necessary. Personal preference 😉

[@michellesallerson8201]

How much house paint and how much gloss varnish?

Hi Kathleen! My beaker is from Catamount Flamewear, it's a 16 ounce size. This one is a bit pricey, so you can search on Amazon for more economical choices in the same size. Search for 'Glass beaker with handle', a bunch of them come up. Thanks for watching 🥰

HoA said he saw a figure near where you highlighted, but I don't really. If you look on the left side of the canvas you can see a white nose and chin, with her hair flowing down.. her face is pointed towards the left of the canvas.
