[@sharonkuhn8896]

Dear Garrick, please help me. I am from South Africa in Mpumalanga these stuff you not get in South Africa. If I go to the hardware shops or arts shops they don't know what I talk about. What products can I used that they sell here in South Africa. Please I need your advice

[@GarrickBrownArtStudio]

@sharonkuhn8896 I'm not very familiar with products in South Africa. My first guess would be to find a white school glue sold there and try using as a pouring medium. As far as house paints trial and error will be your best bet. I'll look and see if I know any artist there who may be able to advice better.

[@Blondie7676]

Hi Garrick - I do resin and getting it to acrylic pouring. What do I use for pillow paint?

[@Lynn_Clifton]

The Glue?!? Speechless! I can't even believe it. Keep doing these, dude, you are KILLING. You are answering SO many questions!

[@LeftBrainedArtist]

That is my type of experiment. Well done Garrick!

[@GarrickBrownArtStudio]

Thanks for watching bro! Hope you are well.

[@jacqwerner7919]

One of the reasons you continue to get sells is because you're using titanium White. And also if you were to torch your art and bust the bubbles you would also come up with more lacing and cells as well. But it's actually the titanium white that's giving you cells

[@GarrickBrownArtStudio]

I will be testing this soon. Torching does bring up bubbles but it doesn't always produced the desired effect of cells so its not something I rely to teach newer artist because it will just be confusing. Thanks for chiming in. ❤️

[@007KayElleKay]

Amsterdam Titanium White and Amsterdam Lamp Black are very “heavy” colours physically and mixed 1:1 with water usually give cells . You’d get cells without torching anyways , just stand back and wait a couple of minutes or just blow on them gently with a straw - you’ll get cells .

[@robertkat]

US floetrol doesn't give any cells. Latex based. Australian Floetrol is oil based, gives cells.

[@007KayElleKay]

@@robertkat - Aussie Floetrol is developed for use with acrylic paints whereas US Floetrol is designed to be used with latex based paints . That’s why you get cells with the Aussie version . There’s nothing I can find in the ingredients that indicates any oil in Aussie Floetrol 🤷‍♀️. All oils are too heavy and end up having to be washed out of your painting if you use them to make cells - you don’t need to wash Aussie Floetrol out of a canvas or off a tile so you can varnish it or cover it in resin ?

[@janetlowtre7770]

​@@robertkatMin wax!! Watch a video. You only need a few drops. It does work. However, I use the glue recipe because I don't have a lot of money and if you do the water right you will get the cells. However, I have a question. Do you have to use that certain white? And that certain black are they the key to cells?Because because I just use regular white and regular black.Does that make a difference

[@shmales7023]

The glue was a bit of a shock honestly. I appreciate the correct ratio of the water and paint too because when I tried it I added too much water so this helps. I honestly just straight up can't afford Aussie floetrol no matter how pretty it is, so I'm excited to see that there are other options provided you have the right ratios. I don't do many blooms because the cell activator recipes I've tried before don't really work all that well for me so this is super encouraging. Thank you!!

[@GarrickBrownArtStudio]

Aw you are more than welcome. Hopefully you can try blooms again with more success. Stay tune for a few more experiments!! Much love. ❤️

[@jenniferdennison8315]

For your ratio don't think measuring think consistency... you want all your pouring paint to be like warm honey off the stick as u mix... paint all has different weights due to pigments .. so hardly any 2 is the same to where u could really use a repeat measuring... u just wanna get a feel for the way it feels as u stir and pour off .. I honestly start with about half and half paint to flo. Or glue.. and the adjust as needed.. if to thin add paint.. to thick a Lil water... and I mean little like table spoon to start... and just get it like honey..move on to next color and do the same... hope this helps!

[@marciemccaslin]

I could barely afford US Floetrol lol. I get it every now and then but I use glue unless I'm doing a big project, something for a customer.

[@marciemccaslin]

@@jenniferdennison8315 I was about to say the same thing! Every single brand of paint I have used has had a different consistency and I have never been able to use the same measurements for all paints.

Hi I just discovered your channel with happiness. I'm speechless, how can you have beautiful little cells with a 1:1 paint and water recipe? Magic but it's magnificent, with a few recipes on the same table, we obtain different shapes and sizes of cells I imagine. I don't really know this universe, I paint very large abstract paintings. But I'm not saying I won't try. as a base coat, is it just pure acrylic paint or is it diluted?. Your work is magnificent. Have a great day. A new subscriber from Montreal.

[@GarrickBrownArtStudio]

Thanks and welcome!!! Paint pouring is a addiction lol. Great questions here. We are using just acrylic paints for my colors. The base can be tricky with the terms. I am using house paint as what we refer to as a pillow which gives us a cushion paint to blow out our colors. This is not a requirement. You can make a "pillow" paint with acrylics. I am actually.making a video on this hoping to release next week because it can be very confusing, many artist use these terms but can mean different things depending on the technique!

What a great video.Thank you for sharing it. I ALMOST have all my questions answered...thanks to you. Let me ask you, on all the cell activators youve made, even on this video, have you ever made one with the white paint NOT being Amsterdam or NOT having the word titanium in it? Id try myself right now but i live in a very, VERY small community and cant find that anywhere around here. Ill send for it in the mail someday but just curious if it has to be what i mentioned above or if any brand of white works cuz ive tried and i dont know if its cuz i did something wrong, (too thick etc.) Or if it has to be titanium or amsterdam ? I really hope i made sense. Even a lil so ya get what im saying ? Just wandering about your experience with it....

( pts Floetrol looks good! I'm a new acrylic art pretender and I cannot get cells, but I continue to try. Glad I found you.

[@DaAvalon1]

If I may, using water to have faster and better results: using only water put all the paint then a bit of water when the water is incorporated you go on adding water little by little, when using water+another medium put the other medium with the paint and only when they incorporate you add water little by little. I learnt this cooking, first the thickest liquid then the other little by little like this you should also avoid lumps.

While I loved the first five... I did not like the owatrol one. So looking forward to a diff version of the owatrol. Surprised by the glue CA.. Yet I have to say what about the archival properties of glue? It's one thing I've stayed away from the begining of my pour experience 5 years ago. Certain artists back then said that you want to think of archival properties and woulde glue stand the test of time. I do sell my art, and I wouldn't want a client coming back to say that the painting failed. I like the water, ink and paint recipe.

[@GarrickBrownArtStudio]

I remember how big of a conversation this was years ago. I think it is completely a myth in my opinion. Even if paint is your pouring medium you are mixing it paints and medium that is archival. Your painting will out live and your kids. Also sealing them will add some additional protection. Will it yellow? It's possible in your whites but for me it's a risk I'm willing to take. Also if you are only using it for cell activator this is literally an ounce or two. You will be fine.

Merci beaucoup pour vos expérimentations. C’est très intéressant et instructif. Je trouve dommage qu’il y ait toujours un centre blanc. Pourquoi ne mélangez vous pas directement l’activateur dans une ou plusieurs de vos couleurs ? Savez vous la différence chimique entre le floetrol australien et le floetrol americain ?

Thank you so much for sharing your experiments with all of us. You mentioned the thickness of the cell activators, it seemed like the ones with thinner consistency provided the better results. Thoughts? Oh, yes I'm going to be experimenting. My Home Depot is 1 mile away... I originally learned the paint:water and did get excellent results. Anyway, I love your channel, your art, sense of humor, videos, ok total fan girling right now lol 🤩

[@GarrickBrownArtStudio]

Aww thanks so much for commenting. Made my day haha. Yeah the thinner consistency did perform better in this test.

[@miniscenesgb]

Seriously helpful thank you! About to try my first attempts at pouring and I so badly want cells :)

[@odilehelbongo5221]

The one with glue is surprising !! 🤭 Thank you, this vidéo is very usefull. It is very difficult and expensive to get Aussie floetrol in France. 👍😘💝

[@GarrickBrownArtStudio]

Thank you! 😊 I am trying to find more universal products to try out.

Lol the slow-mo on the liquid gold mix 😂 ❤

[@GarrickBrownArtStudio]

Ayyyeee thanks. Editing is a labor of love but comments like these make it worth it haha.

I would have to say 1 and 5 … I guess it’s just cell preference! Like art, it’s all personal preference ❤ great experiment Garrick

[@GarrickBrownArtStudio]

Thanks for watching friend!!

[@JosiWeaver-re5wt]

Further - as a UK resident really pleased with recipes 1, 2, and 6 as these products are available. American and Australian Floetrol ridiculously expensive plus cost of shipping. It sure if Elmers Glue is available but there will be UK equivalent. Great video.

[@GarrickBrownArtStudio]

I hate that for you but glad this alternative works!!

[@thebookwyrmslair6757]

I think Brits call Elmer's PVA. I saw it in some stationery stores. It's basically school Kid glue. :)

[@JosiWeaver-re5wt]

@@thebookwyrmslair6757 Thanks - yes I have been using g PVA and water for pouring medium. The white rather than clear. Better quality than school glue. Why do you Americans persist in using Brits moniker. I’m English - as opposed to Welsh or Scottish! End of whinge!

[@thebookwyrmslair6757]

@JosiWeaver-re5wt I apologize! You mentioned UK, and I didn't want to presume. ❤️

[@JosiWeaver-re5wt]

@@thebookwyrmslair6757 No apology needed -it was tongue in cheek. The two 7foot customs officers at airport in New York just gave me a look when I whinged at them for referring to the Marmite I took over for my English friend as the Brit’s equivalent to Vegemite. (Marmite came first by the way!).

3, 4 & 5 are my favorites. Great job! REALLY, awesome results & enjoyable to watch. You're personality makes it!!! 💯

[@GarrickBrownArtStudio]

Aww Thank you so much!! I appreciate you.

[@marinabrown3234]

No.3, Glue. But washing up liquid is great.

[@GarrickBrownArtStudio]

What is the brand? I would love to try it.

[@marinabrown3234]

Hi, any brand just couple of squirts, or coconut oil. 😁
