Any one know what "Put the water on the DNA way" means?

[@jaycortez50]

spitting it out and putting your DNA on it. Talk about making it personal! 😜🤑

[@rebeccamd7903]

LoL I think the real question is, why didn’t he use his air brush gun instead of a can of spray paint 🤔

[@missinichols771]

❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@jaycortez50]

@rebeccamd7903 my guess is because of the paint type, especially with the acid wash look, air brush paint doesn't dry like spray paint.

[@appleoneill5135]

Spitting just like Pob!

[@Richiedei50]

Absolutely brilliant. Thank you so much. I think you opening the garage door, sorry craft room, and realizing it was dark was typical of many artists and crafters who completely lose track of time.🥰

Fantastic! Thanks for sharing, I bet those boards were a HIT!

[@zickiezickie]

Sounds great. Could you post them and how you made them? Thanks.

[@seeburgm100a]

For a smoother finish on canvas you can get Gesso at the craft store and paint the canvas with it.. then when dry sand it smooth. Do it a few times to get a really smooth surface. Most painters/artists need a little texture from canvas as it gives bite or tooth for the paints to stick as brushed on.

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

Awesome tip!

[@tendr247]

I make my own gesso

Nice.. I'm new to this so I'll try it out.. thank you 🙏🏼

I dont get to watch as many of your videos as I used to..Life.. but love every single one that you have done. I love and appreciate how you explain your techniques and have fun while teaching.

[@daimyo2k]

That's pretty cool. I was doing this stuff almost 40 years ago with an airbrush when I was studying Commercial Arts (now called "Graphic Design"). What's old is new again.

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

Yeah but most don't physically draw anymore, most just do digital with the "undo" button, lol

I'll never give up on the pencils, colored pencils, markers, paint, airbrush, etc. So much more gratifying doing it the "primal" way. Lol.

[@youthecat]

A tip for orienting / hanging the piece with the water droplets: Since light ordinarily comes from above us, mount the piece with the "shadowed" side down and the highlight side up. Alternatively, do whacha want. 😁 Excellent work... and fun!

[@artildawn]

Inverting it would make it look dimpled instead of bubbled. Still a valid effect.

[@youthecat]

@@artildawn : And I'm such a pure visual type that, unless I actually SEE it done, I don't know for sure how it'll look. lol But I totally get what you're saying.

How interesting! Since I live near the beach and was already planning to experiment with some techniques for painting indoor and outdoor things, this is perfect timing!

[@BelaGood]

Love both the technique AND the way you taught it. Yes, we should take our art seriously and strive to be good at what we do, but humor really helps make things approachable. Thanks for the tips! ❤

[@angelhamm7278]

I agree !

[@tanman8634]

I discovered a similar effect when you do a base coat, and while it's still wet, immediately follow with a different color primer and it creates an amazing crackle effect and will dry that way without any clear needed! The primer floats on top of the wet paint!

[@deborahhenderson149]

Sounds great. I accidently created that snakeskin effect on my sons bedroom furniture after I painted it black, I think I varnished it before it was cured and hence the lovely pattern emerged much to my delight.

[@RevRedmondFarrier]

I saw the second one years ago and always meant to try it, but never got around to it. This was a good reminder for me to try it as well as adding another trick to my mental toolbox with that first one.

[@chandrasekhargrenze9211]

THANK YOU for sharing this technique! It's awesome, want to tell my pupils at school to try it out (not without safety precautions that is...)

[@cherishthemessypainter]

This was entertaining and very informative! Great idea with the water, I did this once when I accidently left a spray painted canvas out in the rain and loved seeing the drops and sprayed them blue it was cool!

I can't remember how I hooked up to your site .... this is the first video of yours that I watched ... but I guarantee it is not the last. I have been into paint, since I created a technique, back in the early 70's (at least I think I created it ... never seeing anyone else do it before) ... using burning plastic, on dash components for my custom van. I moved into air brushing t-shirts, painting car bodies, then painting with brushes on canvas, and now integrating brush and air brush on canvas ... while still painting on other materials ... have seen water droplet effects before but not how it was accomplished ... thanks, Very Cool.

[@danielmahler8428]

Fun video. Cool technique. I attempted this. My effort came out looking like the "acid washed" version. I was going for the bolder shadowed droplet look. I spray painted a 1/8 in thick rectangle of plywood gloss white and let it dry. Then sprayed water droplets on the panel. I sprayed gloss black at one angle and a green at a different angle. (not sure how to convey this) My water drops were weak at the edges. I'm assuming what I am missing is surface tension. What is the trick to make the water droplets more pronounced and stand up from the panel surface more?

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

I like the salon sprayer I have because it can atomiz the water very well and I can vary up the drop sizes. You may just need to spray more water and some will combine to make nicer bigger drops. Also play around with the amount of paint your spray, try more and try less, but a very low sharp angle.

[@user-tc4ds8tg3x]

What do you use to seal it afterwards? Love the video!

Well, just when you think you've seen it all, along comes one those videos of a guy mixing good humor with unique art and a bit of science. I did airbrushing for several years in a tourist town, then got into fractal burning wood, now I'm thinking about epoxy and the like. And now you show me something new. Very cool. Might combine a few different things. See if I can come up with something original. Or is the saying "nothing new under the sun" a real thing? Guess it doesn't matter if it's original to you, right? Enjoyed your video and picked up a bit of inspiration from it. Well done.

Dude, that was amazing. Could you also have tilted the canvas after applying the water to get the larger droplets to run for a similar effect with droplets and runs? I have searched and searched for a class where I can learn to airbrush. My problem is with the airbrush clogging up. If I thin the paint too much, the results are terrible, but if I don't thin the paint the brush clogs. I need instruction as to how to adjust the brush and paint for varying conditions. Any suggestions where I can get such instructions?
