Galaxy Flow Acrylics that Glow with Invisible Pigment

[@foxxielane2196]

Watching Evan do art is like watching a thriller movie, I am always sitting on the edge of my seat. It is always the calm before the storm and the storm comes and goes in a flash. But the end results are always beautiful.

[@StarlitHeart11]

I feel like Katelyn has the heart of an artist and Evan has the heart of a crafter. Very different styles, and it's interesting to see how much they differ in each project

[@DystopianOverture]

Katelyn by trade is a graphic designer and an artist so it makes sense.

[@DrTurtleBee]

The torch pulls out bubbles, just like with resin, which pulls out cells. Your paintings dry craggly because you leave too much paint on the canvas. The top dries faster than the paint underneath which leads to cracks and waves. If you use less paint and tilt more, you'll get smoother paintings, if that's what you want.

[@bellabreexo]

What if they pour resin on top to protect it, will that help it from cracking?

[@DrTurtleBee]

@@bellabreexo if they pour resin on top before it's fully dried, I'm not 100% sure what would happen, but I imagine not good things. Resin doesn't like water, (acrylic being partially water based) and will discolor and cloud up and do funky things. If they wait until it's fully dried then the cracks will have already formed but could be filled and smoothed out with a thick layer of resin. They already did this with their first round canvases. You'll still see the cracks, but the surface will be smooth at least.

[@bellabreexo]

So interesting! I like to know for future projects for myself! Thank you! 😀

[@ntyler71]

They also have to make sure they clean ALL that silicone off before the resin or it will leave pits.

[@rileyr5118]

I love the caring interactions like at 52:00. I’m here in equal parts for the fun crafts, the mistakes and their fixes, and seeing the honest love that Kaitlyn and Evan show each other. :)

Trusting Evan’s process is the equivalent of trusting a five year old not to fall off of the carousel. In theory it’s a safe bet but you can’t help the anxiety spike every time 😂

Take this in the best way possible. I love falling asleep to your videos! They’re all so relaxing and hey I watch every video all the way through sleeping or not which helps revenue. Keep up the great work Evan and Katelyn!

[@kianih]

"No it's this now" (22:30ish) is such a great motto for chaos evan

[@johnoconnor4941]

You gotta do a painters table. A table that has nails hammered in. Then you brush the nail heads with your brush to clean off the worst of the paint before finally cleaning your brush. Over and over with different colours. A bit time consuming but well worth it. When your ready to go you sand the table top flat and the colours show through as circles. Beautiful...

[@renees766]

Try adding the the UV glow paints last and see if they show up better. Maybe the other paints cover them up?

[@legoninja0025]

That probably could work, but you don't want them to overpower the other paints in uv light

[@VikingCellist]

I love watching the live streams after the fact, so much easier to watch around my schedule :)

[@laula-8765]

I'm always asleep and miss lives 🤣

[@CrimsonAkato]

honestly same even tho I can watch while its live cuz I have the time I prefer to save videos and streams to watch late at night so I can tire out my eyes and sleep nicely after xD

[@legoninja0025]

My parents tried to turn off my internet but I found a way around it. And they locked me out of twitch.

[@ZombieGoddessxi]

When you get to the new place you should get a long uv light and mount it to the wall above these... or make a light box for them with uv lights hidden in the frame. These would be awesome in your next stream room or as a podcast background.

[@BEElaine1008]

Yes.... I look forward to a UV art display wall!

[@piratefacejane]

I hope they do && show us cause I suggested the same on the 1st video 💜

[@Lavender_grass]

My cat watched this entire episode and was engaged the whole time! Not only human content 😂🐱👍🏻

[@tiago9977]

It's cool how there are like 3 versions of each final piece that look cool and focus on all different parts of the piece - lights on, lights on + blacklight, and light off + blacklight.

[@PeachReaver]

"Hey Katelyn! What were your thoughts after we did this awesome art work?" Me "Where's my ViBrAToR?" ???"

[@bananabot151]

Right here dear

[@kristylaforest2222]

Add the silicone to the glow paint, so it pops up, paint thats too thick cracks, heat on silicone makes more cells, watering down your paint a little is helpful when using these techniques, you guys are cute, I love your videos, keep having fun creating

[@tigerdcd]

i love the idea of an invisible painting, it looks like a blank canvas until you shine the UV and see the amazing colours

[@earshear]

Evan's looks like planet Earth from a satalite view. Love it!!! Get uv lights to mount above paintings. 😃

[@sarahmai7179]

Seeing this made me imagine what would acrylic pour look like in tiers so as it flows out it drips on another canvas below and what will the bottom tier end up looking like...or something like that 😅

[@NickiPlague]

It would be so cool if you could manage to somehow rig up some canvases above a large canvas so that when you do the pours they will drip down onto a large canvas and we could see that as well.

[@tigerdcd]

damn that amazing fish at 1:04:40 before Evan lost it's head with tilting, Katelyn was right don't touch it! space fish!

[@treinhardt8313]

using the torch after pouring brings the air bubbles to the surface so that you don't have bubbles in the paint. y'all are adorable, love your projects :)

[@simplyme417]

Also, just a thought, the red you’re looking for was the first color you applied and then layered a bunch on colors on top both times, maybe that’s why you’re not finding the red you’re looking for?

[@oyeah9912]

i’ll mlm

[@Dragonfly_751]

We are watching this one video and our kitty Lila is watching for most of the show !! I love your art !! ❤

[@edenvaughan6840]

1:03:45 Evan had secretly created a Joob pure before unleashing the feather of glory with two surrounding dragons in the corners Evan and Katelyn: everything we've done is a fish

[@Sassyglbeauty]

They should put flatter canvases around their main projects to collect the drip stuff! That could be its own art pieces

[@TeddyBear-wd1fe]

A cool combination would be to paint a layer of the glow in the dark paint and after that dries to make a second layer with the pendulum technique from one of your older videos

[@jimmerseiber]

Katelyns was freaking amazing!!!

[@tristambre632]

Katelyn, I absolutly freaking love the result of your piece of art, very inspiring.

[@KacielNolwen]

I missed the live and it's so nice to be able to watch it after!! Thank you for aking this second channel so we can watch all of your content!

[@silverhoney6969]

Here we have Evan with his fire 🔥 😂 I love how you randomly show the plushies at the very end, and of course you both are WEARING pretty much the same thing as the plushies. Peak E&K

[@marinakeene333]

I love your flow acrylics and your vids thank you!

[@random5156]

I think that the red might have been mixing in with the blue and purple which might have taken over the red. When you showed Evan's master piece at 34:10 you can kinda see red glow mixed with the other glows, but its very subtle because it looks like it was taken over by the mixture of the purple and blue glow. The red mixed with the other glows almost looks like a pinkish-purple galaxy/nebula color, why you many not have that red you guys wanted. Maybe try using more red and less of the other two glows?

[@BIGWIGGLE223]

Haha! I love how Katelyn totally does the "nod & agree" routine to evan when she's reading off the names in the chat. And I always think that they're not wearing pants when they're behind the desk doing their "crafts." Lmao!!

[@MissGrace4]

I totally want a whole series of Evan’s Magical Planets. 😍✨

[@tealbennett5851]

Personally, my style would be more like Evan's but katlyn's looks really trippy. It looks like a star bursting in space. Love them both!

[@Elise-8]

This is my therapy for tonight. I've just cried my eyes out while watching the movie I Still Believe. Y'all bring the happy vibes

[@tiago9977]

Katelyn covering the surface in black and creating a flower just completely reminds me of pancake art videos, especially with all the colours in squeezy bottles next to them - that's something they could probably try on stream/in a video sometime.

[@Lilithd3mon]

The whispering of chaos at 27:30 is hilarious

[@MachSRBlackbird]

If I could give you 10 thumbs up, I would. Not just a great video, but you two pulled off some pretty amazing effects. For a live stream....Well done.

[@Brandywine6969]

I remember when you made the pumpkins last Halloween. Not the real ones that you tried to seal, but the plastic ones that you did the pain pouring thing with. Evan first made it look like candy and I loved that, then he kept going and it still looked cool at the end too. I loved the candy stage of it before he started over too though.

[@Dextoe]

Your guys videos are so amazing. i watched this whole livestream thinking it was a video. you guys are so entertaining and informative

[@rnttreed]

I like the square the most. Now you need to make popout picture frames for them lined with uv light leds in the frame to light them up would be cool. Thanks for the stream :)

[@silg7262]

Evan activates my anxiety lol. I can only watch because of Katelyn

[@kesshami]

Katelyn honestly was just as chaotic. I loved where hers was at multiple points in the process and saw lots of little images and then she shifted it and it would look like complete different images. First was a fish, then it was a dolphin, then it was a baby dolphin and a weird praying mantis like alien guarding a baby octopus in a piece of coral then it was a weird fish mantis alien and a baby fox guarding a weird rock/coral while the fox looked surprised/curious

[@ChibiChula]

BTW, the torch is used to remove air bubbles from under the paint which gives you a smoother end result. The extra cells created by the bursting air bubbles are a bonus to some people. 😊

[@ceatonbusch]

I love Evans chaos 🤣🤣🤣 when he left and said "I didn't turn the mic off. Chaos chaos chaos" 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@Meggyp0p]

I don’t know if it’s the same chemistry or not, but I know in hair color red is the largest color molecule and that’s why it’s the hardest to remove from the hair follicle once it’s embedded. If the red pigment molecules are also relatively large compared to the other mica powders and paint, then the red is probably sinking until the layers are thinner

[@BryonyLister12]

Was a great stream! Seeing Evan with long luscious hair was worth tuning in live for 😂

[@TalaiRain]

Torching in small doses is good. it pops any air bubbles and brings silicone to the surface (it does happen naturally, but not always fast enough for you to see what you're getting.

[@tiago9977]

Katelyn's art before the tilt definitely did look kinda like a fish, part of me wishes she had kept it like that but the end result was pretty cool too. Maybe if they do this again in the future they could do some that are abstract like these, and some that are actual designs on top of an abstract background or something. It reminds me of the Ghost Fish you ride on in It Takes Two, the giant Manta Ray from Moana, and the Ghost Leviathan from Subnautica - those would be pretty cool designs for a piece of art. Maybe they could do a future art project with a glow-in-the-dark theme and/or a sort of neon theme (like the Squirrel cave drawings in It Takes Two or the Grafitti in Mars Needs Moms).

[@ChibiChula]

@59:06 when you were showing the close up I was telling you to grab the torch and pop those bubbles. 😅 Edit: Glad Evan eventually did it, though it made me a tiny bit nervous when he was poking at it, lol.

Oooooo Katelyn's looks like an Eldritch Horror/an Elder God and I love it

[@poormomlife8585]

Imo it 100% looks like earth from outer space. Love it. And the depth is super cool!!

[@_TheRoseCrow]

The tiny whispers of chaos from even off screen sent me

[@aleejoygalaxy]

You should use Dog tag necklace chains for flow acrylics! Dip the chain in paint, then lay it on a canvas letting all the chains meet in an area. Then pull on the chains and its makes SUCH a cool look! You can even use string/twine/yarn/etc if you don't want the look the chain gives. Even if you don't do flow acrylics, you can use a string in a book and make a cool design when you pull it out of a closed book.

[@aleejoygalaxy]

Oh, I also tried doing flow acrylics a while ago, but I used my fingers to do a cool mixing texture. I just tapped the canvas quickly for it.

[@jessicafarewell5429]

If you want to move the paint around you should use a blow dryer on low or cool. Heat will dry the top layer of paint before the rest and cause cracking, which might explain why your previous pours did what they did as they dried :)

[@kylasaundersmiller2286]

With a swipe I do not use silicone in the base colors. Then I use a darker color with silicone at one edge of the canvas. Lightly swipe starting at the dark edge. Amazing results. Also make sure the center of the canvas is level with edge of the canvas, otherwise the paint settles in the middle. Just put something like a pie pan underneath.

I wish I could come over and do a fluid acrylic workshop with you. I could teach you a bunch of cool stuff. For example the reason your last painting cracked is bc you left too much paint on the canvas

With the round canvas, I would have gone with a regular grayscale moon, that turns into a blood mood under black light, that would have been so cool
