[@deborahfranklin3329]

I love your teaching method on this video. Being a beginner, not talking 200 mph really helps.

[@CrystalCountess]

Thank you for sharing your knowledge and method, but more so, the soothing and encouraging way you teach. There’s a lot to learn from here.

[@AndreaClinton]

Trying this today on a 12x12🙏🏽🤲🏽, praying it turns out good. Thanks for sharing.

[@Jim-sh1zs]

Nice video. Straight to the point. Relaxing music. Your class shows

[@spawnofsean]

That last petal you didn't like turned out to be my favorite. Thank you for letting it live 😅. Really they are all unique and great.

So many artist pour a pillow before they add their colors. Can’t wait to try your way. Thanks

[@TracyBowman-Bowman4Art]

I would love to see how you mix paints , that’s the important part. The rest is practice

[@amyyysartistry]

I have a separate tutorial just on mixing the paints! Check my channel and you'll see it. Most of my audience/followers is on Instagram and they requested the Bloom tutorial. Some want to know how that's created, so that's why I made it. 😊 Thank you!!💕

[@jyeskinder]

Can you please share the link for this? I can’t seem to find it on your channel.

[@deborahobrien255]

Lovely painting, Amy. Thank you. A couple of questions: Where do you sign your paintings? And what medium do you use? When you seal with resin, everything is shiny. Does the resin fight the metallics so that you don't notice the sheen in the metallics? Thank you.

[@carolmoorcraft5386]

Amy this is beautiful and your described your technique very plainly and I thank you for that, Thank you for sharing your time and talent

[@manishavarde2345]

Wow, it didn’t crack her dry crazy or anything like that🎉😊

[@juliasager4628]

This is so beautiful and I love it so much that I wanted to try it. I watched your “mixing” video as well to ensure I had a good consistency between my colors and base coat. I tried to “copy” your order of colors and the method you used and mine looked NOTHING like yours but I was still quite pleased with how it turned out! I took a picture and carefully moved it to the room I have dried my other pours in. It’s been around 40 hours since I finished it and it is completely cracked! Not only that, but the saturation of color has changed entirely. I’m so disappointed and I’m not exactly sure what went wrong. I’m thinking it probably has something to do with it not being completely level while drying but this was also my first time using Flood Floetrol so I don’t know if that is a factor too? I don’t think it’s about the drying process because the consistency was pretty even in the different colors and the base white. I did another one this morning and noticed “cracks” (more like the paint separating or splitting) within 30 minutes of pouring. That’s what prompted me to check the other one and the picture I took on Tuesday. I saw in the picture that it had already started separating but I hadn’t noticed it at the time. Do you have any tips or suggestions/advice?

Hello Amy. Beautiful painting as usual. How do you prevent the paint from completely sliding off?

[@marieeckl2398]

Love it

[@amyyysartistry]

Thank you!! 💕

[@cgalbraith6844]

Great video. Addresses all the basics in an easy to understand way. What do you use as a base pain- can it be house paint and what should the consistency of the pillow paint. Thanks.

[@amyyysartistry]

Thank you!! The consistency for the base layer (paint) is the same as the colors. I just made a paint mixing video - posting today!! :)

[@cgalbraith6844]

@@amyyysartistry Terrific thanks

[@patriciarouse6711]

You did a great job in this video. My only question is what brand of white paint did you use for the base paint. Also how much floetrol per paint brand. Would like to see more from you.❤️

[@amyyysartistry]

So sweet, thank you!! I did actually post another tutorial on mixing paint - telling the ratios I use! Go check it out. I use mainly Amsterdam Titanium White for my base paint and I mix that up to 3.2:1:1 (F:P:W). And thank you for the support - I am working on a few more tutorials and videos!! 💕😊

[@geovannycorres6143]

Espectacular lo que haces , como consigues que la pintura se abra así , generando celdas

[@cathyherbisonwiget7887]

We’ll done! Can you provide me with an idea of the consistency of your base? Do you use GAC 800 to prevent crazing/cracks? Is the base thinner than the bloom paints?

[@judyferry8473]

Can you show how you mix your paints and the paint consistency up close for the Dutch Pour? Thanks

[@73kars]

Very pretty. Question: Is the blow dryer set on a cold or hot, I’ve not heard anyone say in all the videos I’ve watched.

[@amyyysartistry]

Some will tell you cool, but honestly - it doesn't matter. The one I use in this video does not have a cool setting and it works just fine. Blowing these out is more about technique - angles and knowing when to stop!! 😊💕

[@debbyd4073]

I think most ppl want measurments for mixing paint,"something" to go off of,starting point...consistency is the toughest to get because of diffrent colors/densities and so forth

[@amyyysartistry]

Hi Debby, I agree!! That's why I made the second tutorial on how I mix my paints. Check it out! I think it's a good idea to talk about the different densities vs color as well! 😃

[@debbyd4073]

Yes! Color theory & all that g♡♡d stuff lol I will go watch it! Thank you for your reply!♡ Have a great night🌙

[@rebeccaredon2573]

On this tutto, no floetrol with the paint ?? I really like your paintings 🥰🤩😘😍

[@Flashpg]

Hi there, stunning work. I'm just about to start acrylic paint pouring ( I did used to paint with oils as a lad, long time ago). I wanted to ask, do you water down your base white paint? I was told that Silk emulsion house paint is good to use just not sure if I need to add anything to it. Thanks

[@amyyysartistry]

Hey, thank you so much!! Check this paint mixing tutorial: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hJ23oZ-na7t-nLs

[@amyyysartistry]

I do mix my base paint (regardless of color) in the same way as the others!

[@donnagood9079]

How do you mix the paints? What proportions do you use? Do you mix them with water? What kind of resin do you use.

[@amyyysartistry]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/hJ23oZ-na7t-nLs

[@amyyysartistry]

I just posted my paint mixing tutorial, it also has most of my ratios! I use Art Resin. I have a tutorial for that as well, but I haven't posted to KZbin yet (it's on my Instagram).

[@sarahamernik4819]

Muy bonito!

[@amyyysartistry]

Thank you!! 💕

[@geiselleart3971]

❤❤❤

[@jacquifiggins8758]

Hello beautiful painting. For us beginners can you tell us the ratios you use. I am still getting the courage to start. Thanx

[@jackienahuel6115]

Beautiful! Could you go over what supplies you would need and what is the process for it drying and finishing with resin? I would love to start doing this And when using the hairdryer do you use heat or cool setting ?

[@amyyysartistry]

Yes!! Great questions!! I am hearing all of these questions and working on more videos (I'm new to recording so I'm slow lol). I do have an Amazon Recommendations list that has everything you need to get started. Are you asking about resin only? Or from the beginning (painting) to the end (resin)? For the hairdryer, I use cool on the larger one and the smaller one only has one setting (it's not hot or cold - very neutral).

[@amyyysartistry]

Here's the Resin supplies I recommend: a.co/bffkHKj

[@amyyysartistry]

And here's a link to the basics: a.co/9IQbCuG

[@jackienahuel6115]

@@amyyysartistry awesome thank you so much I am a complete newbie so I guess I’m asking everything lol But when you use the paints it looks like a lot of paint is thick on the canvas ( or whatever medium using) so I was wondering do you have to use resin to protect it or does it take super long to dry?

[@valeriebenson1630]

What is the ratio of liquitex and water? Thank you for touching on how you blow out the petals, where you focus the air. I’ve watched a lot of tutorials and haven’t seen that one mentioned. Also, appreciated the mention of pearl, metallic and standard helping with cell activities.

[@amyyysartistry]

I'm so glad you liked this! My ratio for Liquitex is 2 to 1 to .75 (Floetrol:Paint:Water). I'm sorry for the delay - I'm finally going to start posting more here!

[@ShriyaAnupam]

​@@amyyysartistry Such a great tutorial. Thank you so much. Really helped me a lot. Just one question, how do you measure while mixing paint, liquitex and water?

[@paulineburke2363]

I love this Amy! I am going to try it. Are all the paints including the base/pillow the same consistency? Also do you use USA or Australian Fleotrol? Thanks

[@amyyysartistry]

Yes - all the same consistency! I used US Floetrol for this painting. I only use the Australian when I do swipes. I'm posting a paint mixing video later today!! :)

[@anitagurbaxani9156]

Do you have to use white fluid as a base...can we use just regular acrylic paint

[@patriciamora2915]

How long did it take to dry and what resin do you use? Can you use a varnish instead?

[@marianreader817]

I have a query about the hairdryer. I bought it from Amazon but it only blows hot air. Is that what yours does? If so, how does the paint not dry out as you’re blowing, cos mine does! I’m in the UK so I’m wondering if my hairdryer is different. It looks the same! 🤷‍♀️ Thank you for your help. I’d love to make a bloom like yours, it’s beautiful! 💕💕

[@Rainbowsandswirls47]

Hi Marian, I'm also in uk and just bought the blue hair dryer, there is no cool setting. I think the dryer has to be moved fairly quickly and not kept on 1 area for more than 3 seconds. Some of my paints were thicker and dried too quickly before I got the shape I wanted. Up to now failed but will try again with thinner paint, videos I've seen doing Dutch pour, their paints look very fluid when the dryer is used and have more time to work the petals. 😊

[@karenrichmond5692]

I bought that hair dryer but it seems to not have a cool setting. Is it ok to use heat? Some say to use cool air I’ve noticed.

[@susiesalvage]

What do you use for your base paint? Do you mix your colors with floetrol?

[@jlo726]

I can't find any one who explains the base paint mixture. Including ratios and types of paint.???

[@amyyysartistry]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/hJ23oZ-na7t-nLs

[@amyyysartistry]

I just posted my paint mixing tutorial above. It has my ratios - which are the same for my base paint.

[@donnamoore246]

Do you have a paint mixing video?

[@karishmachauhan9846]

How much time it takes to get dry?

[@tracymyers7834]

How long does it take to dry?

[@amyyysartistry]

About 24 hours!

[@philipdaws-lazar7113]

I enjoyed your tutorial but I would have liked you to mention the consistency of the paint you mixed other than just "a fluid consistency."

[@SherisFluidArtCorner]

I just paid almost $50 for this flower blow dryer and it does not have a cool setting. Does yours… I swear mine looks exactly the same.
