[@alishawitty2267]

Caren Goodrich love all your work! You are an inspiration!

[@lavenaedwards5789]

Caren Goodrich love your work what ratio do you use with your flow and paint

[@catinagervasi4765]

My dear teacher, one of the most important lessons is I have taken away from this video is that the subtle variations from the background to the flowers 🌺 create something so simple yet very appealing to the eye. Using your hand to spread the paint...brilliant!

[@SuesOriginals]

I'm going to teach a summer art camp and this would be perfect for the kids to do. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@carengoodrich]

Sue Vincent practice this first before you teach the kids!

[@DarkFire1536]

All theses flower videos are fun and inspirational. Thank you!

[@cathyspeerly4997]

Excellent video. Beautiful.

[@SuesOriginals]

Your videos are all so fun and informative. Thank you for posting them.

[@ellygreaves9793]

Oki poki thats it, today I am going to make 4 flowers and play with sticks. Thank you Caren for the inspiration, big hugs.

[@carengoodrich]

Elly Greaves have fun Elly, that's the spirit!

[@paulahardesty4449]

I'm in love with your flowers and your teaching. I love when u said it's just sticks and paint. No pressure. I'm going to try one. Thank you for sharing

[@carengoodrich]

Paula Hardesty excellent have fun!!

[@nancy9704]

Oh, wow! Love how this turned out! Very very cool this pour painting! It's like magic ;)

[@karinzimmer5503]

Dear Caren, Your way of art opened my whole mind. Never believed in me - until I found you! You caused the Creation of a new ME.... Love, Karin from Germany

[@margarethdemery488]

Dang girl... you blew amazing beautiful life into the paint to create amazing art... love ❤️ it!

[@taniaclass4805]

Omg this is great. So funny I was watching so intently wondering ok puddles then flowers? then you started blowing...Love it! I also love the abstractness of it. Follow up... I just watched the previous flower video sorry I'm a bit back to front today...

[@Tentmakerindia]

Excellent demonstration and teaching. I love the way you kept everything so simple without any kind of complicated process. The blow effect is brilliant idea and I don't think we can ever get the effect with brush. I must try it out. Since I am in India, there is going to be a challenge to find the right kind of material. Thank you.

[@georgiacorey954]

Loved them. They remind me of Poppies

[@peggytravels793]

[@leonarddenning4202]

Your art is amazing ! I’m just learning this painting technique and would like to know what is the resin used for ,is it to prime the canvas and if so how do you use it ? Love your work greatly thanks for sharing.

[@bronchial1]

Ooo got to try me some flowers! Thanx Caren!

[@cynthiakoop2837]

[@kittydigs6469]

Beautiful :)

[@YouTube4me]

OMG, this is just lovely !!! Caren, how do you finish your work? with a varnish or other spray? I would love a video on the finish you would do.

[@macsshack4623]

Amazing!

[@teresasartglass]

I love this technique. I am working on a series called "Four Seasons" on 4 X 4 canvases....I have winter and fall but this would be great for spring or summer. thank you for the inspiration. Teresa

[@carengoodrich]

Four Seasons....good idea!

[@succulent7garden]

WOW Beautiful flowers GOOD video 😙😍👍👏👐🌹👍

[@judyhobday5334]

poppy-like, nice

[@angeliaberkowitz5472]

Caren, I'm new to painting and use it for a stress reliever. I've been watching your pours, and they are so beautiful. I finally tried this for the first time....and learned about the desired consistency the hard way. I did not make it thin enough, and almost passed out trying to blow out the flowers. Lesson learned. My question is: for colors used frequently, can they be mixed in a capped squeeze bottle to preserve them? Not sure how long they will last after they are mixed with the pouring medium. Thank you for sharing your artistry with us. Very inspiring. Angelia

[@carengoodrich]

Angelia Berkowitz yes you can pre-mix and store! No reason why it shouldn't last forever. The only thing I have found with stored mixes is that I often have to add a couple drops of water to it and stir. It seems to thicken slightly when it sits.

[@SimoneFancyBosslady]

nice...love it!!!!!!!

[@HeiderosesPhotograph]

AWESOME....:)

[@julogan77]

Excellent! I'm going to try this. Can I do this without cells? thanks for sharing.

[@carengoodrich]

Possibly, depends on your mixture.

[@lizhamilton5934]

Hi Caren, Very pretty! I am wondering how to hang these on a wall? Also Floetrol in Home Depot or hardware store in paint dept.

[@BettieMiner]

Is the Easy Flow similar to Floetral? I tried some of your flowers and had a blast. I got too carried away, though and used too much paint. But it worked out. Thanks for the great ideas!

[@carengoodrich]

yes they are both paint conditioners, I have used both and prefer Easy Flow. It's out of stock right now but hopefully will be available again soon.

[@sunshinejanice30]

AWESOME

[@berniceseigel6482]

Loved you flower videos. What are those colors of yellow and pink

[@cathycruz309]

I'm hooked on your videos. Think I bought everything on your supply list. Can't wait to get started making my own art. One question: About how long does it take for a painting to dry? Just an approximate. I know it depends on how much paint you use. Thanks for the inspiration. Your work is amazing.

[@carengoodrich]

Cathy Cruz hi Cathy! About one/three days, depending on the weather and humidity where you live, and of course the thickness of your pour. Don’t hurry the drying process with heat, let it dry naturally. Have fun and I’m excited for you! Thanks for shopping on my amazon list! I appreciate it!

[@natalieharris3338]

hi caren! I was wondering if you have tried blowing the leaves as Well? I did in a recent picture and they looked quite cool! I made more of a line puddle...like an oval but not a lot of paint. would love to see you rendition of it!❤

[@carengoodrich]

Natalie harris good idea! I'll try that next time!

[@Lil_small_kid]

Caren Goodrich hey caren.....i want to know what type of colours you used???they are shiny and easy to blow......plz let me know thnxxxx....luv ur work

[@rosannamitchell3298]

Very nice techniques - what is your recipe for the white that you spread onto the panels? Thanks so much

[@Diamond86248]

"One thing you can learn as an artist is *_when to stop._* " Every art teacher I have had has told me I need to learn when to stop. It's been 15ish years and I still haven't figured it out :DD

[@carengoodrich]

it's ok...it's not mandatory that you stop! Keep going, it's your painting, lol! You are figuring out what works for you!

[@ReviewsAndMore9]

The great thing about acrylic is you can keep going if you need to. Stop when you like what you see.

[@noracrouch8822]

you are still using silicone in each cup as well as the medium, correct? enjoy your presentations!

[@mandrews2250]

Although the 12" x 12" canvases are primed when you buy them, do you still put on a coat of gesso? Also, do you apply a varnish finish when your acrylic paintings are dry?

[@denisealtenburg4656]

How did you use your easy flow, in the colors? how much in each please?

[@maddiec5341]

Love this technique. Very simple but so effective.Tfs. Do you pre paint white on the panels before you pour any paint, just thinking that there will be bare canvas showing otherwise. Mx

[@carengoodrich]

maddie c I gesso everything in advance

[@tabortooth11]

WOW!!!

[@mandrews2250]

I found the info I previously inquired about.

[@kateandrews5972]

I think this is the favorite of the ones I've seen you do, it's amazing. Are you still using Nova paints?

[@carengoodrich]

Kate Andrews yes these were Nova paints

[@kateandrews5972]

Thank you

[@chrisbotticella5963]

Great work! Would appreciate a list of colours you use!

[@carengoodrich]

chris botticella more info on colors coming soon!

[@dotimbro553]

You make it look so easy. I want o try this. Just picked up at Michaels a small bottle of flow control. How much should be mixed in? Thank You Dot

[@carengoodrich]

Dot Imbro I'm not familiar with Flow Control but my approximate measurements are 1 part paint, 3 parts pouring medium, a dash of water and a few drops of silicone.

[@marshapalmer4959]

Caren, what is the difference between Easy Flow and Floetrol. Is one better than the other, and if so, why? I love your videos - I have tried some and get a lot of compliments. Thank you, Marsha P.

[@Mirarockx]

It is the same thing! Only the one is in a different language than the other. :)

[@CD-jb2ry]

I agree with Miranda... Floetrol in Europe and in North America its called Easy Flow.

[@carengoodrich]

MARSHA PALMER in my previous video I talk about it. My comparisons are between the USA made Floetrol by Flood and the France made Easy Flow by Owatrol. I prefer Easy Flow.

[@Heartwing37]

C. Fabc it's Floetrol in America....Durieu Group owns both Flood and Owatrol. They claim that their Floetrol formula is the same for both distributors.

[@CD-jb2ry]

Hi Laurie Ann Hunter, my answer was the same one by Owatrol. And as Caren Goodrich said, and lots of people prefer EasyFlow instead of Floetrol. :-)

[@ReviewsAndMore9]

Do you have to spread another color (such as white) on first or can you pour your circles straight onto a dry canvas and then blow? I realize the paint will spread better if canvas is wet already, but can it be done on a dry canvas too?

[@carengoodrich]

Yes you can! I like the interaction on wet but there are instances where you might do dry.

[@mandrews2250]

Hello Caren - I am new to acrylic pour painting and just love your tutorials. I plan to do a bouquet now. At the end of the tutorial you reference a number of connections to you including Etsy. Unfortunately I couldn't find you. Is it possible to post the sites here?

[@dontgetmestarted6291]

She has posted the links you are looking for in the very first comment that's pinned at the top OR if you click the "show more" below the published on date right under the video. All links for ETSY, PATREON and INSTAGRAM are highlighted in blue.

[@mandrews2250]

Thank-you.

[@jerrieclapp669]

I'm new at this...I loved your 4 flowers so I tried to do one. It doesn't want to dry, oily residue. I must have put too much silicone in the paint. Is there a way to remove the paint from the pallet after it has dried?

[@jerrieclapp669]

I should have said paint off a canvas. I am really enjoying your tutorials. Thank you

[@carengoodrich]

Do you mean remove the silicone? You have to let the painting dry for several days, the silicone will rise to the top and you wipe it off. You can use water/dish soap on a paper towel. Just be sure your painting is plenty dry, give it several days.

[@nicolamertens7223]

Or wipe off the silicone and pour over a new pour

[@mindyterw1]

how much east flow do you put in the paint....????

[@славкаандреева-э7у]

hello I love your job can I ask what kind of paint you use, end when you finish what's happens to the paint

[@carengoodrich]

acrylic paint, I save leftover paint in the cup to use for the next pour.

[@judithrogers374]

are you going to leave the drops and splatters on the finished art?

[@carengoodrich]

Judith Rogers yes. The idea is for the paintings to look messy and spontaneous.

[@stonecrestquilt]

Who makes Easy Pour? I can't find anything about it anywhere.

[@carengoodrich]

Quilterbee Tarpley it's Easy Flow and there is a link to it in my supply list. It is sold out at the moment. Keep checking the link.
