Thank you so much Jane

[@joallawestervelt6918]

So beautiful. Really grateful for another tutorial on how you mix your swipe consistency. Thank you so very much! You are so creative and fantastic artist. Laying here trying to relax. When I got home from the EMG test where I was prodded, electric shocked and stuck with needles trying to figure out which nerve was causing the drop foot. When I got home, went to step up on the stoop and my foot dropped and caught on the stoop causing me to fall. Hurt my back, foot, knees, hands, wrists and bounced my chin off the hot rocks as well, snapping my head back. I Feel like I have been beat with a bat. Man I cannot catch a break. But, you know, this too I shall somehow survive. Cross your fingers. 💕🤗💕

Fabulous info, Cathleen. You’re a great teacher and artist. I love your swipe, and have recently fallen for red Bordeaux. It’s a great color, isn’t it? Take care, and I’ll see you on your next one. 🎶💞🎶

Hello Mama D

[@margaritaphobe]

Wonderful mixing tutorial, Cathleen 👏. I agree 💯 % , simple also makes me smile. So much in life is complicated, it’s magical to get lost in the simple things. I love this swipe ♥️😍♥️💐💐💐

Thank you Mell Mell

[@claudiamann7111]

Thanks so much for that wonderful tutorial. Always learn something new. Love your swipe.

[@COZCreationsArt]

Claudia thank you. I’m a swiping girl 😊

[@peggydurdin383]

I have watched for ever and the more I see the less I know! LOL! I got the color mixing down thanks to this last video...thank you! You are a great teacher and have mastered your technique! Now...1. Did you mix anything into your base color? Can I use "any" paint for a base? 2. Is your base paint the same recipe for swipe and Dutch Pour? And again, what is that? I probably missed the info somewhere...... 3. IF and when do you use a cell activator? I am going to make this happen...just need all the correct "parts/recipe" and maybe just a sprinkle of your talent! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR KZbin!

[@COZCreationsArt]

Peggy I do not use cell activators. My cells are created by the different paint densities. The base coat has the same pouring medium as my swipe colors. 50% Floetrol 50% liquitex pouring medium. You can use what ever paint you want for your base coat. I don’t do many Dutch pours. The paint consistency is usually thinner for a Dutch pour then a swipe.

[@peggydurdin383]

@@COZCreationsArt I CAN NOT THANK YOU ENOUGH! I only want to do swipes and by everything including the base paint being all the same consistency I can do that! What a great place for me to start...and grow from here. And "they" say you can't teach an old dog new tricks!

[@paulagoynes]

Thank you for the lesson in mixing and the simple but beautiful swipe. 🥰

[@COZCreationsArt]

My pleasure Paula 😊

[@lindahoagland7516]

Thanks so much for your tutorial on how you mix your paint for a swipe painting. It was so informative and I learned alot. Hopefully this lesson will reflect growth on my next attempt at a swipe. And by the way, that swipe was beautiful.

[@COZCreationsArt]

Linda thank you. Happy Painting 🖼

Jane this app is called ArtRooms.

@@COZCreationsArt thank you 🙏

[@c8Lorraine1]

What brands and colours of paint would you recommend for a beginner to fluid art ? I’d also like to know what to use as a pouring medium . I’m in Australia 🇦🇺

[@COZCreationsArt]

DecoArt Paints are cost effective and beautiful. Floetrol and paint. Many start off with just paint and water. Best to you

[@brendaallen7735]

These Minimalistic swipes are my absolute favorite! I watched the mixing but did I miss putting something else? Did you put Australian floetrol or anything else in the swipe? Thank you.

[@COZCreationsArt]

Brenda sometimes I use Aussie floetrol. But not often. You can get cells without additives. There’s a video a ways back called Mega Cells with no silicone

[@JulieMeikle]

Does liquid paint have less pigment than heavier body paint? It doesn't look like it.

[@COZCreationsArt]

Julie just the opposite

[@BrandiWineRn]

How do u get your cells? Do u use Aussie floetrol or US floetrol or silicone??? You are very talented and a great teacher but I would be grateful to know that answer . Also do you ever mix paints for the bloom technique and if so do u have a video for that? Also does the liquitex pouring medium have any poly in it like color art polypour?

[@COZCreationsArt]

Hello Brandi. No silicone. Not a fan of mixing paint and oil. I sometimes use Aussie Floetrol. The cells are created by the different paint densities. One paint sinks and the other rises to the top. There is a video a ways back that explains this. It’s called How to get mega cells

[@COZCreationsArt]

here’s the video for you. How to Get "Mega Cells" with out SILICONE Courtney Hoelscher is in the house!!!!!! So Excited! kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z4Cco6CGZrdnl9U

[@avileno50]

A question all kind of Liquitex are ok or it’s better the one with the E for effects? If you see this question I appreciate your answer a lot…

[@COZCreationsArt]

Avil I use the Liquitex Pouring Medium with the black and gray label www.jerrysartarama.com/liquitex-gloss-acrylic-pouring-mediums-1gallon-73787

[@jamiesuesartistrys212]

Can I use the orange labeled liquidtex Varnish or creative Inspirations, Catherine? Ty ❤️

[@COZCreationsArt]

Yes you can Jamie Sue

[@jamiesuesartistrys212]

@@COZCreationsArt awesome

[@priythak3]

Which brand do you use for base paint? And do mix base also same way? Thank you

[@COZCreationsArt]

I use many brands but mostly Artist Loft Soft Body. The base coat is mixed the same as other colors. Same consistency 😊

What size are those cups?

Скажите,а в какой краске активатор?

I just use glue and water one painting I tried 6 years ago is still vibrant no cracks craze nothing so I really don't use all that stuff as IV never had to with anything IV done,but if u think u do go for it I just think it's financially only helping the people who make money from it

[@COZCreationsArt]

Marie what ever works for you is the way to go. I have not had any luck with glue. All the best 🐷
