[@georgeangordineer6310]

I love this one! Black background makes it!

[@ceciliajacobs5346]

Beautiful.. The black really made it POP. Love your work

[@cherigreen4471]

The black just makes it pop! Love it!

[@BeFaithful57]

I am utterly astounded!

[@fentongal]

WOW! How cool!

[@ChristinaWelch]

You’re killing me with these awesome pours! Those edges and that stairway......ugh, too freakin cool! Maybe someday you’ll get your gradient background....lol. Thank you for sharing 💕💕

[@bryinsmoot1080]

I LOVE this! I’m new to pouring. I have a few questions. You talk about your mixture being 10% Floetrol, 90% water. What’s the ratio of paint to this mixture? Approximately 1 to 1? Also, when you put your base coat down, is the white Gesso or just white paint with the mixture? Anyone who can answer these questions I will appreciate. Thank you!

[@dianamcdaniel8880]

Bryin Smoot the Floetrol & water is an individual choice. I haven't tried it myself, but I do add both Floetrol & water to my paints. I'm relatively new too(within 6mo), but you'll get the hang of it. The base coat is painted whatever color you choose and should be a bit thinner than the paint. The ratios depend upon the paints you're using, as well as what you choose for a pouring medium. Crafting paints are 1:1, and tube paints are 2:1/3:1 depending upon their pigment & how thick they are. White Gesso is used to prep a canvas that's to be reused, a surface other than canvas, etc...as a rule your canvas will come pre gessoed. I hope I was able to help you. These are things I wish someone had taken the time to share with me in the beginning. Lol. Good luck! I just opened my group capped, Peace, Love, & Pour Art, maybe I will see you there

[@kanthikurian1512]

It was fabulous. Made it look even better after the corners were painted black. You really inspire me. Thank you once again for sharing your beautiful work. .

[@peggyburnett6331]

Black - Yes

[@christyhoehn8244]

STILL MY ALL-TIME FAVE VIDEO!!’ It just never gets old!

[@Shines-On]

And the magenta, I almost forgot about that beautiful magenta! It looks like a huge flower. Thanks so much for sharing it with us.

[@kathyhoskin8350]

Wow! Good call on the change to black! I was screaming no! Then saw the end result. Love it!

[@heatherdiodati2167]

That is the most beautiful pour I’ve ever seen so far from anyone! ❤️

[@GinaDeLuca]

Thank you very much!

[@kyannalenz5012]

Wow! Just WOW! That black took it to a whole other level! Amazing!

[@tlhpeach5450]

That is a masterpiece! The black was a great addition!

[@kpupo123]

WOW it looks like a psychedelic sunflower!! I love it!

[@amp279]

When it was in the egg shape it looked like an embryo, beautiful cells & love the black, good job.

[@TheJasperlife]

From all the pours I've seen, this too is MY favourite. Thanks so much for sharing!!!

[@lynmorris9916]

Stunning....one of the best pours I have seen....it is 3 dimensional. It was the right choice to replace white with black. What a talent you are.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👌👌

[@gwalker5058]

This is my favorite. So very beautiful . Keep. up the beautiful work.

[@brendasmith529]

This s is phenomenal! Love it!♥️♥️♥️

[@sabrinaduncan2140]

This second piece is also amazing!! Almost gives the looks of a Dahlia Flower.

[@cfrandre8319]

Sabrina Duncan I’m so glad you said that. I just kept thinking it looks like a *great* view down an endoscope...which, to me, is fascinating, but I hesitate to say that to artistic people, so knowing how you see it gives me a better metaphor, thank you!!!

[@MoiTheFuss]

This is amazing. I love the black and the tendrils you added through them. Seemed to make the whole painting come alive

[@krisk6346]

Turned out striking, the black is a great balance for the busyness, you were absolutly right to leave it be.

[@GinaDeLuca]

Thank you 😊

[@barbarafazzini7147]

Absolutely beautiful!

[@heatherbarnett8421]

Wow, never seen so many cells without silicone or some other cell maker, incredible

[@KeieiH]

Woah! Totally blown away by this one!

[@lilianestuder9974]

BEAUTIFUL....😍 I've never seen so huge cells.. It looks like a colour explosion....Thank you for sharing. Regards from Switzerland🤗

[@djm7494]

My heart dropped when it was majority purple at the pour... And then the magic happened. This piece is absolutely breathtaking and well done you for having the artistic insight to add the black because it just came alive! Utterly striking and gorgeous. I would LOVE to see this on the wall or on display if you kept it or if you sold it could the owner show us??

[@martadelatorre3490]

I only have one word for your work: impressive, amazing, daring, beautiful. ..Oh, that's more than one word. ..love it,love it, love it

[@GinaDeLuca]

Thank you!

[@creativeplanetjanet]

Marta De La Torre , Agreed! Also, you should write greeting cards. 😀

[@marinabrantner753]

Fantastic! I love all the useful tips you provided for cell formation without silicone.

[@EmJGee]

Absolutely stunning and inspirational and love love this artwork. Brilliant. Looks like a massive flower......

[@barbaramiller7284]

I am not sure if I even have the words to critique this pour. Amazing, fantastic, jaw dropping, cells to die for and color that makes me want to dance the happy dance. Just glorious, and did I mention gorgeous. Now I have something to strive for. Way to go Gina.

[@jillbarron395]

I do some of this type of painting of my own, but I want to buy this one!!! Love it!!

[@TxgrlnGa]

The black is so much better! I love all these colors together! ❤️

[@GinaDeLuca]

Thank you 🙏

[@brendawashington206]

I like the executive decision to add the black😁 That was a whole lot of paint in that cup..nice pour. Turned out beautifully 😁

[@boganicalart]

Incredible! New subscriber here!!!! This will definitely be my next pour, love love love the colors 😍

[@Yup900]

Oh my God Gina this is an absolute masterpiece! It is now almost midnight here in the Netherlands but I thinks I have to give this a try now. You are such an inspiration! Elvira

[@GinaDeLuca]

Thank you very much!

[@MsAngel3208]

Wow, Wow, Wow... absolutely stunning... Love it

[@AzaleaLuna]

Wow. The black background definitely looks better. I didn't know about this technique till a couple weeks ago. It's amazing!

[@idopoliti]

This is INSANELY GOOD! To get such a defined result on a big scale canvas is almost impossible.. This is absolutely stunning

[@GinaDeLuca]

Thank you. Big canvases are a different animal, but I think I prefer them to smaller. I think there is more opportunity to control composition.

[@idopoliti]

Gina DeLuca yes, well... with smaller canvases it's way easier to cover them all and get a good result. With big scale canvases, there's just much more room for mistakes, and the colors mix too much and get muddy very easily. I was also shocked by how much purple came out of there and still, u got so many colors besides the purple .. it really is just BEAUTIFUL.

[@idopoliti]

Gina DeLuca do u have an advice as for how to not get the colors too mixed up? Once they mix too much u don't get a lot of contrast

[@jeanniebarcus8185]

I came back to see this magnificent work of Yours again! Have You read the comments about Your Work? I think You’ve earned the title Queen of Acrylic Paint whatever You choose to do with it!

[@jeanniebarcus8185]

Really! Truly Amazing!!

[@GinaDeLuca]

Thank you so much!

[@GinaDeLuca]

The response has been overwhelming and wonderful! I feel blessed.

[@usherl250]

Wow Gina, what a beautiful piece, I love your color choice...absolutely gorgeous

[@LunaMora888]

Looks like a big beautiful flower !!!!

[@suzieplum05]

Another SUPERB piece of arty lusciousness !

[@brigittemcguire2030]

Outstanding

[@smallfairytales1231]

Gorgeous. Thank you for showing how to change the background color. I’m glad you did it without silicone as well. Shout out to the Facebook group.

[@1005DG]

Unbelievable!!! This has to be my absolute favourite pour video ever. The colours and depth are stunning. I really liked it on the white :-) Thanks for the inspiration!

[@1011beep]

Gina, I have been following you along with another one who does beautiful work. I have done everything possible to make the large cells with this other woman's advice, using silicone I have come to the conclusion I am just not one of those people who will ever have those beautiful big cells that you all get. I have tried for months on end as I am not a quitter and she made it look so easy. You are both so talented I watch your videos over and over to be sure I hear every last word out of your mouths. I want so bad, to do art like you. Today I decided to try your way....although it looked way to beautiful to be that simple. I was in total shock to see the big cells I got from NOT using silicone and only Floetrol! Still not as beautiful as yours but 100times better than what I was getting before. You are so clear on what and how to use everything.....Thank you...I cant wait to do another and post it on Facebook along with all the other beauties!

[@GinaDeLuca]

Yay! I'm so happy it worked for you! ❤️

[@1Whoopsy]

Same here Beep Beep...been thinking, what the hell is wrong with me? Soon In will try it without the silicon as well. Hope your pours are getting better by now!! 👍 Lots of fun anyways!! 😊

[@lightwavz]

I officially think you should start every painting now with the statement, "I will be using this as a background..."

[@GinaDeLuca]

Yes! Great idea!

[@michaelkolarik4986]

Terri Light no

[@jodyenns3981]

Love it

[@vikivUtube]

Lovely corners. Can you tell us your recipe for your base coat? Thank you.

[@patpotter6933]

WOW!! The black made the colors just pop. Love your work!

[@nancy9704]

This looks amazing! Those cells are brilliant, and the color is so vibrant!!

[@pamcarr4003]

Wow! Absolutely beautiful! Just Flotrol and paint, no silicone? I'm so new, I have my supplies, just getting the nerve to do a "pour" (love the lingo, lol!). I'm New subscriber, just now! Thanks for your time and sharing this, Pam

[@denisehorrocks2507]

K....

[@denisehorrocks2507]

Uebn

[@alancast46]

Hey Gina, love your art and instructional videos. I'm new at this and am just wanting to ask you how do you achieve those giant cells?

[@lisawilson3360]

Look at her paint recipes in her info

[@user-hw3wg1rf1x]

My goodness this is gorgeous!!!

[@patriciagraham4771]

It is beautiful, and it is great how you were able to add the black after the pour. It set the whole thing off just right. Thank you for all your instructions on your videos too. Thank you.

[@SuperBotanica]

this is a masterpiece! the best cell painting I ever see! I am from thailand, no floetrol aviable. I must work with the white latex glue - very cheap here... after the painting is dry, I apply resin on top for the shine.

[@gabriellebradley]

Im in langkawi, malaysia. I found Floetrol at the ace hardware in Kuala Lumpur! It took me a while to get it.

[@SuperBotanica]

lucky you - no ace hardware shop in phuket. if I ask here in the shops about paint conditioner - they have no idea what I mean.....

[@auntypillow]

May be you can buy this online? My regards from the Netherlands, Europe.

[@cfrandre8319]

No floetrol for me, either. Asking friends over in Brisbane to look...so far no joy😞. Seriously wondering about tamanu oil! 😜

[@pjarnott3639]

Try Zinesser Latex Extender. I can't get Floetrol either.

[@barbkelly3524]

That was amazing....I'm so glad u didn't move it anymore, and just added the black perfect finish.👌❤️

[@nummy511]

Of all the vids I have watched Im sure this is my absolute favorite!!!!!

[@cyndaluclaire1801]

I love the black on the corners, it's just what I was thinking, it really pops now. It's beautiful...

[@kenmeyerjr57]

boy, it is amazing how these cells are looking so dimensional

[@StephanieGagos]

love it

[@ceciltan5263]

Fantastic. So beautiful cells.

[@angelah.8398]

Absolutely beautiful. I do agree black for corners will make this piece beyond beautiful. Staircase into the abyss.

[@lynettefrohning3069]

I can only see one thing wrong.... You need More videos! Lol 😂 your work is amazing! And love listening to you explain, very relaxing! This is just gorgeous!! 👍

[@GinaDeLuca]

Thank you! I'm working on it. I am varnishing a bunch of pieces at the moment, and putting them on my online store, but will be painting again very soon! I need to sell some paintings and make some room! 😂

[@lynettefrohning3069]

Gina DeLuca totally hear you, I couldn't imagine trying to find time to do videos on top of my daily life and just the time it takes to finish all the paintings like you said! 🙏🙏

[@swade5113]

Big juicy cells are right. Wow! I Love it!!!

[@michellekennedy16]

GORGEOUS!!! I am in awe of the large cells you were able to create!!!

[@Wolfxyloto]

I just recently started watching these but this one is my favorite! I kind of thought it looked a bit like a phoenix. Very beautiful, and relaxing!

[@merryclicker]

Before you toss those paint tubes, cut them open and get out the last of the paint. I've discovered that there is almost an ounce of paint that hides where you can't squeeze it out, but you can scoop it out! Love this one as much as the other one. And as I'm anti silicone, I do appreciate the cells as well. I'm going to have to go back to Floetrol, which I decided to step away from after all the clumps! My mix evidently wasn't as good as yours... but I'm learning.

[@heatherbarnett8421]

Martha D I put water in my tubes and shake clean, use it for the next time I mix that colour

[@GinaDeLuca]

I have a box of empty bottles waiting for me to do that. 😂 also, I use a piece of nylon stocking to strain my Floetrol. You can add to Floetrol bottle with rubber band or, what I do is add Floetrol to a smaller bottle with a flip cap and put stocking between cap and bottle. No more lumps!

[@elfiewilkins6639]

Heather and Gina You may want to consider buying a [ tube wringer] that gadget really squeezes out all paint.

[@alinad1030]

Best I've found for getting the last of your paint out of the tube, are those toothpaste rollers that slip on to the end of your toothpaste tube. I get them from the dollar store....LOVE your painting, gorgeous

[@camillefulton7709]

I THINK THAT'S SPECTACULAR LIKE THE BLACK.. ANOTHER TIME A PORTRAIT !

[@twrecks116]

WOW!! that is Amazing!!!

[@debbiejohnivan2719]

Outstanding! Just Outstanding !!!

[@dbstelly]

Who are the 55 people who disliked this? It’s amazing, do you sell these?

[@GinaDeLuca]

Haha. Some people just enjoy being negative. Yes I do sell my paintings! You can contact me through The Glassy Knoll on Facebook. Lots of pieces up on there.

[@aphelionravi]

God! Wow! So beautiful!!! Do you, or anyone else, know what I could use instead of Floetrol? I'm not sure I can find this in my country... Thanks for the inspiration and for the videos! Cheers!

[@littlelulu4107]

Zinsser Paint Extender is what I'm presently using...good luck

[@meggieinwv]

Try Amazon.

[@staceylee4611]

This piece is stunning! I'm brand new at pouring... I'm so nervous. But your so inspiring. Thanks for sharing your talent with us !

[@misty2850]

Gina, I adore your artistic ability! This is my other favorite gem! It’s so beautiful!😍💕

[@diannehart5072]

ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS My favorite pour that I’ve seen on a video ever! I wish I was that good.

[@GinaDeLuca]

Thank you!

[@ruthannmolyneaux478]

Where did you say I could find a chart that gives the amount of paint needed for coverage?

[@ceciliajacobs5346]

Just times the size of the canvas (12x16 =192) plus extra for sides, so you would need approx. 200ml. of paint for a 12x16 canvas. That would be approx. 7 ozs (I would use 1 cup to make sure I had enough paint)

[@SalvageRelease69]

Is there a general ratio though?

[@conniecharo9925]

Ruth Ann Molyneaux chart for canvas coverage

[@GinaDeLuca]

There is a chart under announcements in the group Go Make Some Art! On Facebook.

[@stephaniejayne5185]

Wow Gina...without a doubt these are the most magnificent big bulging natural cells, with such character. I admire your concentration and patience as you move the canvas around so carefully. This is an outstanding achievement.

[@maxmullins1807]

WOW!!!!!! Just decided to get into Acrylic Pouring, been thinking about it for awhile......TOO KOOL!!!!

[@alexislassman4138]

What kind of sorcery is THIS? Let me get this straight- this is tube paint .. 1 part paint and 1part Floetrol.. in each color including the white background and that’s it? Any alcohol? Paint consistency a little thinner then “ warm honey”? Absolutely mind blowing .. no words! 😶

[@GinaDeLuca]

1 part paint: 2 part Floetrol. No alcohol.

[@BlaizC]

Straight floetrol, right? Not the floetrol/water mixture you used to thin down that one color. Do you also add water to the mix? I use 1 part paint to 2 parts floetrol, and I have to use water to thin the LB and AL tube paints.

[@MG-yk6gh]

Hi Gina, in the description below the video you said 1paint : 2Floetral. But here you say the opposite. Which one would it be?

[@musician7677]

Alexis Lassman mom

[@victoriathornton8042]

Yes, I would love to know too. What is the actual recipe and paint brand? And how much water?

[@taniaclass4805]

I have Never Ever seen such Huge Cells!!! This is just 10% floetrol and water? WoW. Great Tutorial Thanks. No way can you paint over that :-) Please show us when dry.

[@GinaDeLuca]

1paint:2floetrol I use a mixture of water(90%) and floetrol (10%) which I add til I reach desired consistency.

[@shaunhaggerty2691]

Hi Gina, absolutely beautiful pour. Just to clarify, do you use 1 part paint to 2 parts floetrol and then thin this mixture down with the 90% 10% water floetrol mix? Or is it just the paint thinned with the water floetrol mix?

[@taniaclass4805]

Thanks Gina. My next pour I will give it a go.

[@eyesue8102]

I am confused as well- first mix the 10% floetrol with 90% water, then add 2 parts that to one part paint?

[@rockadvice]

It sounds like she initially has the paint and floetrol 1 part paint to 2 parts floetrol, and then if it needs thinning, she uses a water mixture that is 10 % floetrol to the 90% water.

[@vonellevanzant237]

Wow! That black certainly set off those beautiful colors and cell activity. ❤️❤️❤️

[@cherylbobo6286]

So beautiful, I love the colors combination and the cells.

[@angelsandfaes]

Holy patience batman. Huge respect to your patience level. I always mess mine up because I can go slow. lol Absolutely beautiful work girl. Very sexy piece

[@GinaDeLuca]

Thank you. Patience is crucial on the bigger paintings. My arm gets tired from pouring on some of them, but small movements create big effects once you stretch them out.

[@martadelatorre3490]

excuse me, but I just noticed that there are over 200 likes and 3 don't like !! just thought I'd let you know that THEY MUST BE GREEN WITH ENVY....HA HA HA. ..

[@GinaDeLuca]

All my videos have them. Haters gonna hate. 🤷‍♀️

[@elfiewilkins6639]

Marta I doubt those 3 people hate her work. Most likely they have either little, or no knowledge about the element of art, what makes a painting a success or a failure. I also know that a great number of people are not able to feel a connection to abstract art. So they only admire work that they are able to recognize in in the outer world. Not the psyche.

[@chosenheir3055]

Gina DeLuca if they are hating that means you're doing something right.

[@GinaDeLuca]

I'm fairly certain a couple subscribe. I'll upload and within a few minutes get a thumbs down. 😂

[@chosenheir3055]

Gina DeLuca forget them.

[@kimberlycoleman6942]

Absolutely amazing!! Just beautiful ♥️

[@flohubbard]

That is breathtaking. So something else to try. I have been trying 24x24. So again, thanks

[@EllaNchanted]

That is stunning!!!! The cells are amazing and the black background was definitely the right choice for this one. Great job Gina

[@judyfrank2380]

WOW. So gorgeous. Sounds sooooo easy. Gotta try it. Thank you for your videos.

[@trish1anne]

Wow! That was like watching a spectacular show. Loved everything about it.

[@Ketobbey]

Love the card you have on Amazon so I picked them up. Love for Australia! Amazing video! love the art outcome. The info and insight is awesome!

[@tippetsm]

OMG!! I have no words...gorgeous

[@melk915]

One of my favorites too!! Beautiful work!!

[@estellegoodnight6338]

This is SPECTACULAR!!! OMGoodness! I absolutely love it! Still trying to make up my mind if I like the white or black corners better. They are both beautiful.

[@judygrubbs1093]

Oh my gosh, I thought through before you added the black. I held my breath. It was worth it.❤

[@NineCirclesYT]

One of my favorite pieces of art I've ever seen. Personally loved it with the white, but it looks fantastic!

[@GinaDeLuca]

Thank you! One of the house favorites too. I’m forbidden to sell it. 😂

[@sharonholmes2250]

Far out! That is so beautiful. Love it. Thanks for sharing.

[@gmichelle2460]

Amazing color combination. I cannot stop watching this video! Spectacular artwork!!! ❤️

[@reneet4329]

This is absolutely gorgeous! I want to try this so bad! Thank you so much for sharing and for the inspiration!

[@alanjones8358]

That is freakingly stunning

[@ctdenison4285]

Stunning! the black was a great addition.

[@Cheryles7]

This is one of the most breathtaking paintings ever. I would buy it in a flash. I also loved the one prior to this in a similar vein. I am a sucker for magentas, pinks, reds, but the yellow popped out in a delightful way. I enjoyed these videos immensely. Thank you.

[@tazssfreak]

Gina, you are so inspiring!! I literally have no background of painting, the only things I know came from years of photography works but I’m literally going to Michaels tomorrow and getting some painting materials to get started with. Thanks a ton for the inspiration!! I don’t know how much you intend on making your stuff psychedelic but these paintings of yours are amazingly psychedelic and nothing else could inspire me this much. Best of luck with your work and keep making amazing art.
