Pearlescent Zig-Zag Technique + Marble STUNNING Results! Pour Paint Abstract Painting

[@JoKeet1]

Dearest Mark!!! I cannot believe it is only a year since a shy young man started posting the 1st video that I saw of your work 😮. You have come so far since those early days & I really love how you have progressed in your art & presentation ❤🎉😊. I am so happy for you!!❤❤ This is one of your best pieces (to me anyway - including your calm & informative explanation). There are also 2 pieces behind you on the wall that caught my eye that I havnt yet seen a video of (my fault there I am sure 😢). The sunburst one behind yourself & what looks like a feather on the side in the corner. Both look STUNNING!! Is there a quick link to videos of those ?? I would love to see them! 🎉 Keep up the good work, you are really one of the best out there ❤🤗👏👏👏

[@MarkJRatcliffeArt]

Thank you so so much!! Wow that’s sooo kind of you to say! I think the one behind me is this one: Sandy Shores Sunset - Composition and not giving up! - Swipe Technique - Acrylic Pouring Fluid Art kzbin.info/www/bejne/f6Cmh5V_eJaklas I’m not sure which other one you mean? The one on the right hand side as you look at the screen with the buff titanium base?

How often does your "vision" play out, in pour painting? You did it! This is so AWESOME. I have never seen a swipe as an adjunct to a Pearl pour. I LOVE it. Different level of interest. Thank you, Mark. 😊

[@MarkJRatcliffeArt]

Thank you so much! I’m playing with Pearlescent’s again to kick the year off. I started a series last year in January too. Lots more to come. In terms of vision, I really like to just see how it transforms. Sometimes it works, other times I get lost in the Moment and see where it goes.

[@carolineg.5461]

Hey Mark !! 🎉🎉🎉 I missed your creations during the holiday season. 😉 But I sincerely believe that you needed some time off. 🤔😊 And yes, I'm back too, 😄 to hear you and look at your art. It is currently 2 a.m. in Quebec. I'm surprised to see how dark the colors appear already even on the wet version.😲 When you showed the dry version, I said Wow out loud.😃 I couldn't believe it. 😳 I love the lacing around and on the sides of the canvas. I also really like when you use a marble to create beautiful designs. This piece is stunning and truly beautiful. 💯💯 I remember that Molly did several tests and she noticed that when she made puddles the outline which was thinner and which was in more direct contact with the black gave a darker color around the puddle. You have confirmed this hypothesis with this zigzag canvas. 👍 Thin fold line in contact with black and now the colors are more pigmented. 👍💯💯💯 I hope you don't mind when I mention Molly in your comments. I'm just fascinated by what you're doing that makes sense between the two channels. 🙏 Have nice day to you!! 🌈

[@MarkJRatcliffeArt]

Thank you so much Caroline! I appreciate your kind feedback (I did need the rest haha) and I appreciate all your observations. And of course I don’t mind you referencing Molly, she is a dear friend of mine 🙏☺️

Wow, what a great start into the new year, watching your video. This piece is gorgeous. I love the surprise moments with the pearlescent colours. Fun part: when you were pouring the zigzags, I thought it would be a great idea to use the marble, not knowing that you were going to do so 😃 And when you tilted the canvas, a few times I caught myself tilting my phone because I feared that you would lose all the lacings - LOL. Great job again 🖒💖
