"Hydro Dipping" is MIND BLOWING!!

[@kaan1361]

Hey jazza, there is a traditional Turkish method of exclusive painting called "Ebru Art" quite similar to this but more exquisite in which you basically paint on water and dip whatever you want to bear the design. I think you might like that as well. Love your art and you've given me so much inspiration over the years. Wish you and your family the best, cheers!

I always thought I would never be good at art but what I've realized is that a ton of your projects are the result of you jumping head first into something new and unknown and it turns out amazing. Thanks for inspiring me to give new things a try instead of assuming I won't be good at it

[@itsmikehayden]

Jazza, I mean this with love: Thank you for showing how supremely difficult it is to do this and instead of pursuing my own efforts to dip stuff. Instead of trying it myself, after learning from your "successes," that I should just pay an artisan of the craft the money they ask because if you can't get a product better than what I would assume I can as a non-artist, that this is a true craft of skill and deserves the money demanded. Often in the art communities it's hard to value the services involved. Some are short changing themselves and others are exhibit a bit too much hubris for even Zeus to condone. This was eye opening that a professional artist produced results (again, no offense intended) worse than I thought I could do (I was an idiot and thought it exactly as easy as you evidently did before your experiments!) before watching the results. It looks so dead easy and simple, but good lord is it much, much more than that. Thank you, Jazza, for doing this on camera. Loved the video. Haven't finished it yet, but can see how it's going.

[@malcolmgruber8165]

Jazza REALLY needs to make sure he's clearing any left over paint before pulling it back up.

[@karl_alan]

That was my thought. Every time I have seen people do this, they always move their arms around to break up and clear the surface before pulling the item out, so they don't get those weird strands and blotchy double-dipped areas.

[@stygerdatona]

Yes

[@orangsucc]

He did clear it SOME of the time, but he did it with the thing he was dipping, thus ruining it...

[@David.C.Velasquez]

Even I know he's doing it wrong, and I'm nobody... smh. You have to push the unused paint to the side with a piece of cardboard before pulling the object back out.

[@Aaeuoas]

Yeah! I feel like most of the time when I see people trying this stuff they don’t do that and it ruins their dips too often imo :c

[@angelsinthewindow]

The gold on the frame actually doesn't look half bad. It looks like a old rustic sort of feel which is a aesthetic I myself actually do enjoy. Almost like something you would find in a abandoned home where there is a certain type of beauty.

[@D0S81]

Jazza, instead of watching TikToks to try and learn, i think it would be cool to see you get someone who does for a living, what you're trying to do in our videos. Or it would even be cool to see you go visit the different workshops of the people who do the things you wanna learn, and they teach you by letting you try and do the thing in their workshop, and then at the end, you come back and do a big piece at the end using everything you've learned, and then give it to the person you visited in that video. I just think it would be cool to see you going to see other artists to learn to do the things they do, as well as your usual stuff.

[@marcelraion3583]

[@holvingar4375]

A little tip, when doing surfaces such as plastic it is a good idea to scratch up the surface of the material so the paint adheres properly. Loved the video btw!

[@winterprism9227]

Also, in the videos he watched, they don't spray the paint all over the place. They sort of just spray in the center. And I think he'd benefit from shaking the remaining paint away, before bringing what he dipped, out of the water.

[@holvingar4375]

[@zurgishsweet4895]

Before watching Jazza go through with this "hydro dipping" process, I have had always known this technique as "marbleization" -- which has traditionally been applied to paper for bookbinding purposes. But watching Jazza dip entire shoes for this effect is mind-blowing. Good call!

I hope you applied some varnish or protective coat over these things! They will scrape right off if you don’t protect them with some clear coating after! For the “fails” or mistakes (ie: Garath’s gifts 😂) why not add a little spray paint after? Not fully spray paint, but lightly spray over it from a distance to add more color or fill in certain areas that were missed in the dip process? Like the missing spots where you hands were holding the item or the backs of the shoes? Fill in those areas with spray paint of similar colors straight out of the can? Just some ideas! I’m certainly no expert. 💖🤘🏻😎

[@XanBos]

Most definitely don’t mix different types of paints! 😝 The other thing was that you were spraying too far up from the water, and getting more speckles than those nice random lines. I the the sneakers were the best, though I would have masked off the soles too.(couldn’t tell if you had) The lines on the sneakers were really cool, as well as the color choices!

[@jennw6809]

He didn't mask the soles :(

[@HMFan2010]

This technique derives from the art of paper marbling. They sometimes use "combs:" lengths of wood with projecting wires spaced at even intervals like 1" that they draw through the floating pigment in different directions to create very fine featherlike details.

[@missseaweed2462]

I did something like this in class in elementary school, except I think we likely used droppers or another kind of applicator instead of spraypainting the surface of the water. One would understandably not trust a room of 12-year olds with cans of spraypaint. We dipped cardbook covers for each of us to take home, and I still have mine! Sometimes I take a look at it and think it's quite charming, with the boldly badly done flowers and its uniquely childlike color choices, lol.

[@tiffanysandmeier4753]

That is cool. My daughter was 11 or 12 when she took several cans of spray paint to school for an art project. That was for 6th grade which is middle school here. This was around a year and a half ago.

[@vjpearce]

I did that too, back when I was about 7 or 8. I think it was with marbling inks though in small trays of water. Still got mine somewhere.

[@francescathomas3502]

Yep. Marble arts have been around for several centuries. Oil paints on the surface of water, swirl them around and then lay down paper on top to get a design!!!

[@1525kat]

Many of us have done this for years using plain water with powdered borax added (sold in US as 20MuleTeam Borax, a washing aid). Then we use oil based paint/enamels/nail polish to make design on top. This works really nicely on paper - white bags become 'expensive' gits bags, plain pastel paper and envelopes become stationary sets, etc. Also works beautifully on silk like material to make scarves. Some folks use shaving cream as base for the paint - too messy and too expensive.

[@MrSnigleN]

they key is to shake the items under water to avoind getting a 2nd layer when bringing them back up! but still awesome results :)
