Erica hiya, I live by the river Mersey, England so can I buy Leslie's colourarte from you? Namely the putting on the glitz. My email address I think you have but its [e-mail] by the way I love your swipes

I have been doing pour painting for about 6 months now and I can't tell you how many videos I have watched. And by far i think you are the best artist out there. I have not seen any art work better than yours. I just wanted to let you know that and that your art work is amazing

[@pamreed7227]

Thank you never seen bloom this way had some bigger canvases tried the bloom didn’t work well this will and yours was gorgeous 😘

[@rancholobogris]

Love the movement and the contrast between the first and second swipe. Great idea not to waste it. I would usually just scrape it onto thr edges of my canvas to help the paint down the edges.

[@lisadumas6422]

I always enjoy watching you create! ♥️ You make it look so easy and very informative. I’m going to try mixing my first cell activator and do my first acrylic pour this weekend. I can’t wait!

This is beautiful! Love the colors and the technique. Can’t wait to try it. 💕

[@Macca6593]

This looks so fantastic

[@davis51369]

Love the colors. I think some people use too many colors so it looks muddy to me. By using just three it allowed all the different mixed colors to show. So gorgeous

[@krystalreschke6114]

Love these colors ❤️

[@dorothybrook820]

Love it. You are so good at this.

[@HopeDesigns]

I love this! I need a swipe win! Blissful Bordeaux is one of my favs ♡ I have wanted to see this process so thank you for showing us ;) Who would think this would have worked so well!

[@EricaHughesArt]

Hi Mandy! Yes love that blissful boaduex! I cant wait to get the new glitz set!!! ❤😘

This was really beautiful Erica! I love the colors & all the shimmer! ❤

[@EricaHughesArt]

Hi Gayle! Thank you! x

[@sandiguinnartescape]

Gorgeous

[@hanalwala]

Lovely..... I got a new idea from you. You put the cell activator first on the pallet knife and hen put the paints to swipe. I had never done that. Will try it tonight... Thanks for sharing.

[@aprilfields6434]

Love this method!!

[@kendramanuel1858]

😳💗👍 Beautiful

[@cynthiawilson8294]

Love it! 💕

[@RoseMCreations]

Fantastic!

[@valtshirtshoodiesmugs]

beautiful work, i learn something everyday, i have tried swipes, that have come out ok, but never thought of putting the cell activator on first, thank you for sharing your info. love it.. 👍😍💖

[@EricaHughesArt]

Thank you! Yes cell activator first if doing it like I did in the video! I will definitely be playing with this some more!

[@sun018]

Beautiful 😍 and thank you for all the product info. I'm in Galway so will be able to contact Sasha for Aussie Floetrol and products 🙂🌈🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀

[@tallerdeartesantana4747]

nice job

[@Thunderpaws111]

Hi Erica! As you know I ordered a Colourarte set from you, and I was not hit by any extra charges by customs.

[@JoaBea4]

Love it 😀 😍 ❤

[@anitajagiasi4761]

Very good

[@EricaHughesArt]

Thank you!

[@keedacatart]

Very pretty :)

[@lorifitchette8531]

Love it

[@EricaHughesArt]

Thank you!

[@amandasdesignsofficial]

Thank you for this!! I have seen a few people do this swipe and couldn't figure out how they were doing their initial paint on their palette knives, etc. This helps after I tried one failed attempt!!

[@EricaHughesArt]

I know... I kept seeing people do these swipes too and was like how the heck....??? trying to get my hands on one of those liquitex freestyle pallet knives. They have a nice wide paddle one that I have seen some use. thanks for stopping by! 😀

[@amandasdesignsofficial]

@@EricaHughesArt Thanks for the heads up on that palette knife from Liquitex! I'll have to check that out.

[@susanhause1588]

Love this! Never seen this done this way before and I really want to try it but I'm in Ohio,USA. So I can't use the same Floetrol.🙂

[@EricaHughesArt]

You can try water and Amsterdam Titanium white. Works well for a cell activator! I have also used glue all, water and paint for cell activator. I have a video on it. Fluidart.co sells Australian flood floetrol from the usa.

[@franlewis8906]

That is so pretty! Almost painless to watch! I’ve got some house paint to use as a base but it’s not silk. Should I exchange it for silk? Not opened yet. Or will it work just as well? Got it from B & Q down the road from me. I’m in Wiltshire UK. Hugs to you from a distance & congratulations on not murdering your kids through homeschooling! They’ll be back in their classrooms soon enough. Let’s hope they will be able to look back to this time when they’re grown with good memories. xx

[@lynnsmith5931]

Beautiful art.. I’m in the uk... would love to be able to buy some vivid enamel, can’t find it here.. thankyou

[@dawnrader]

Your final piece is absolutely gorgeous, I love the colours 💗 Quick question - I'm in Scotland (thank you for the info about the Aussie floetrol on Saskias site) when you're talking house paint, is it emulsion or gloss?

[@MonicaMuil]

Well this is a first!! 😆

[@vickyb9918]

Why is the difference with using house/latex paint vs acrylic paint?

[@cbrm3067]

Hi Erica. Placed my order yesterday for the Putting on the Glitz set fromm your site so really looking forward to that. I'll let you know if I am affected by Brexit/Customs just so you can pass that info on to others. One question, I have seen a few people on the Shelee art facebook page, are getting problems with cracking or crazing as their blooms dry. I have the ingredients you are using here, so was just wondered if you've experienced anything similar?

[@cbrm3067]

Love the painting too x

[@darlenebaldwin1398]

[@30mushroom]

Ps where are you buying your vallejo varnish? I can only find one seller on Amazon who is charging almost €50 for delivery 🙄

[@EricaHughesArt]

Hi!!! Hobbymad.ie stock it! They normally have 500ml bottles but are out of stock. He is restocking but Vallejo is behind on inventory. He DOES have 5 liter jugs for 144 euro. Out of my price range at the minute 🤣 how are you doing? Glad to see you back pouring! xx

[@30mushroom]

@@EricaHughesArt thanks a mill for the info X

[@30mushroom]

@@EricaHughesArt Soooo glad to be back at the paints. I’ve a million ideas in my head 😊 I’m doing good, demented with the lockdown but who isn’t. Hope you and your family are doing ok in these crazy times X
