One of the most interesting chain pull I’ve seen. Bravo!

[@JL-qj1jc]

I am flooded with ideas! Thank you for sharing. 💐

[@grumpinez3472]

it is soooo cool! i love this new technique. 🤩

[@cjbarash3819]

Really cool technique!!❤

[@stephss]

Many craft places, that sell jewelry type of items, will have spools of chain to select from. The dollar store is also another good place.

Thank you! Thanks so much for watching 🙏😊🎨

[@cecilehoare3053]

This is really cool Heather! I love that you used the long canvas instead of the square or slightly rectangle ones, it really adds to the final effect! Gorgeous!

Fantastic! I’ll be getting some ball chain, my chain pulls don’t have that edging, because my chain is smooth. Thank you for the video!

The 3 point design...if you had green background and planned your placement if turned upside down would look like a evergreen tree...great xmas or winter time look...

I learned in Japan to love paintings with blue shades of scenes . I love your painting. Be looking at painting video's because the way I do them takes time sitten in front of a canvas. I have so many hobbies that I wanted a quicker way to paint. This skips the blending with a brush. Thank you.😸🐾🐾🐾🐾💕

[@emilyflotilla931]

Loved the simplicity of the ssd's single flower as well! Chain has been added to my shopping list!

Would like to see you do one with the last three small flowers at the top, increasing in size to have the largest flower at the bottom.???

I tried it but my bedroom light kept going on and off. Love your art. 😁

[@suesturges6022]

Wow!

[@louiselyon3849]

Wow, that is spectacular! And you made me laugh as I WAS that person shouting at the screen willing you to stop as it looked so brilliant about halfway through, then you actually SAID about everyone probably yelling at you! However, you proved us all wrong by continuing and making it look even better with more pulls. Great job.

[@wendycapitano5462]

pretty nice, many people ask me for black and white paintings, so i could try this technique in black and white :)

[@kathygy]

This is the first of your videos that I've watched. You're a hoot to listen to and your work is beautiful. I am now following you... :)

[@HeatherWrightArt]

Thank you, I really appreciate that! Thanks so much for watching 🙏😄🎨

[@mkellyfluidart]

Heather could you describe the consistency of the background color and the chain color? I have found that I seem to be pulling a little too much of the background color down when I’m pulling the chain. Also Home Depot and Lowe’s both sell packs of replacement ball chain in about 3 foot lengths. Makes it a bit easier when you can cut the long length into two or three sections. Find them in the lighting/ceiling fan area of the store

[@larynanntapp6333]

Same question! No matter how lightly I pull my string, I get bald areas from the base being pulled off. It's driving me nuts!

[@HeatherWrightArt]

Lol, tough question! I got lucky with this one, considering this was the first chain pull I've ever done! As far as consistency, I would say mine is just a little thinner than I make it for my regular dirty pours... Like warmed up honey, not too thin.if. If you are dragging off too much paint, it is probably too thin so try a little thicker. Also, drag the chain slowly and easily so it doesn't dig into the paint too heavily and scrape the canvas... I hope this helps! Thanks so much for watching 🙏😊🎨

[@Nojokeimhigh]

You could always put a base coat down and let it dry first..

[@angelenekong-tay8305]

Thank you so much for sharing. I will certainly be trying is out. Did you mix a little gold into the white pain for the chain pull ?

[@HeatherWrightArt]

Thank you, Angelene 💚💜💙 Nope, no gold, just white on blue background... But that sounds like a great idea! Thanks so much for watching 🙏😊🎨

[@jillswann-lussier7890]

I wished you had stopped at 3 or 5 orchids as odd numbers are more appealing compositionally. A lovely ghostly effect! Thank you for sharing. I love your totally natural presentation.

Totally amazing you are so talented thank you for sharing with me please how long is the ball chain you use 🙀🙀🙀

About 3 feet. Thanks so much for watching 🙏 😁 🎨

[@HeatherWrightArt]

Thank you! Thanks so much for watching 🙏😊🎨

[@theresiasanford3683]

Gorgeous! Where did the cells come from?

[@HeatherWrightArt]

Since there wasn't silicone added to the paint, the cells/lacing come from the different weights of the paints, the white is generally heavier than most other colors, especially when using titanium white. Thanks for watching!

[@MooseKrazysFlowingCanvas]

Thanks for the inspiration for my Flower Garden! Love this! Why chilled distilled water? Does the chilling of the distilled make a difference? Dioxazine Purple and Magenta would be stunning! Must try! at 11:19 at the bottom right, I can see a man's head, he's wearing sunglasses and is pointed left. I love how this turned out! Was there silicone or just floetrol? Thanks for sharing!

[@HeatherWrightArt]

Thank you! No silicone in this one and yes, in the warmer months I found keeping the distilled water cold actually does help with a successful pour! Thanks so much for watching 🙏 😁 🎨

[@lisae3663]

I was yelling to stop with the first one. That was awesome. It turned out great! What size canvas?

[@HeatherWrightArt]

10" by 20" I believe... Thanks so much for watching 🙏 😁 🎨

[@aynurozemek8000]

Harika🙏🙏

[@HeatherWrightArt]

Thanks you!

[@lesfeehan8847]

Do l have to use silicone or can l just use Floetrol paint and water to get the same affect please

[@HeatherWrightArt]

There was no silicone used in this one, just a really lucky outcome from using the artist's loft white flow acrylic and artist's loft phthalo blue paints (both mixed with just floetrol and a little chilled distilled water) 😂 I'm not sure I could get this result again if I tried! Lots of good luck and thanks for watching 🙏😊🍀🎨

This is so awesome! Now you’ll either have to stand on a chair to turn on the fan, or go to Menard’s (ad on your video 😆) to buy another chain-cuz you know you’ll be doing it again! 👍🏼
