Layered hidden colors, scoop and drags and the importance of stretching

The right amount of pillow paint gives you the right amount of stretchability. In this quick but effective painting I try to point out how important stretching is but also tell you that finding that sweet spot is almost impossible. I got lucky with this one

and now, to the art:
If you need an overview to my ingredients and the whole technique, you might want to watch this:
• A complete tutorial of...
My POURING MEDIUM
Behr Dynasty deep base semi-gloss and minwax polycrylic (roughly 2:1) from Home depot
And thinning to the right consistency with JoSonja gloss varnish (Dick blick, jerrys artsarama or Fluidart.co)
Paints mixed with my PM:
This little piggy pigment - ball gown, lakeside
Golden HB - Quin. Nickel azo gol, Nickel azo yellow
Amsterdam - prussian blue
TLP - aspargus
fluid-art.co/ for TLP and SUP, Silicone mats, Palette knives etc.
The magic juice/Cell activator is mixed with australian floetrol. (1:1)
paints added:
amsterdam- titanium white, oxide black
The wall paint I use for my PILLOW PAINT is Glidden essentials 'white' in eggshell
----------------------------------------------------------------------
THE SPINNER I'm using is my own design and creation. Every single work step is done by my hands and my table saw (operated by me)
I sell these on my homepage and if you want to up your game and create on big canvases, you seriously should check it out!
DISCLAIMER: It's a tool for serious artists, I always recommend getting a small , cheaper spinner to try if spinning is your thing first. After you've tried other versions, I promise you'll appreciate this guy over all of them if you work with big heavy canvasses and you spin all the time, like me.
For medium and smaller Canvasses, check out my new tiny and mighty Bäby spinner!

[@caroleok978]

I love what you are doing here . . . and such a cool color result I was expecting to be so much darker . . . Fabulous!

[@WinterStromArt]

Thank you so much! Yes, that’s my intention behind it. By layering the white underneath you get these almost backlit effects

Echt nicht? Soweit ich weiß, kann man TLP in ganz Europa bekommen. Versuchs mal, falls du magst, bei fluidart.co

I have just completed Shelee's course 2.0. You got a special mention as someone who took the bloom technique and made it your own. This lovely painting of yours demonstrates your talent.

[@WinterStromArt]

Are you serious?! Wow! How kind of her I need to check it out. Thank you for letting me know

[@karl-friedrichjagau9974]

[@melodywilson5255]

On my goodness! Do you see the fish right after the spin? This is so gorgeous! I need to get the nickel azo yellow! Is it also by Golden?

[@WinterStromArt]

Yes, both azos are by golden. I use heavy body but you can find it in all other consistencies as well

[@LotusChandraArts]

Wow thats gorgeous! Do you always use boom get in hide and reveal technique?

[@WinterStromArt]

Thank you. I don’t use it every time

[@GR-gx2kg]

I have no words to thank you for your teaching, you are my hero in this art! I am in Australia, would I have any chance to have a lesson with you? For this technique, are the paints thicker or the same consistency as for a normal swipe or a bloom? Thank you and I love u

[@greerswearingen4433]

Hi do you use the house paint as the pillow base because it lifts up the best? Compared to any acrylic art paint . TIA!

[@WinterStromArt]

It’s the perfect vehicle for my other paints. It’s thick enough to hold them and stretchy enough to tilt and spin and expand my composition. There might be other ways that I haven’t explored yet

[@MrMakeweapons]

Hey You Jessica, I want to join your patreon on the $25 level, but I wanted to ask whether you would post your post cards overseas? ( to the Land Down Under). Could you please let me know. Cheers, Cath 💕💕

Yes I will do that! Thank you so much for considering ❤️
