New Pearl Recipe w/ 20-21 Artist Loft paint | I’m on “Cloud 9” with these results!

[@dwightpours1261]

Hey Sara! Thanks for the shout out! Looking forward to watching and seeing your smiling face!!

[@debbiemartschinke5316]

A true Sara Taylor Classic,,, the paintings that bought me into the world of Pearl Effect/Sara Taylor Art,,,, and yes it’s been a trial and error experience,, nearly giving up. However I always came back to try,, and I am happy with what I am achieving. Living in Australia Artist Loft is not readily available,,,,,, A big thankyou to you Sara,, your inspirational videos kept me striving to keep going,, 🧡🧡🧡🧡

[@todd8634]

Hi Debbie, I'm in Tasmania Australia, did you work out a good recepie from what we can get in Aus ?

[@bjmin6635]

Sara, thank you! You are so inspiring, while I was recovering from a car accident concussion I watched many of your videos and loved them very much! Sending you love 💕 ❤

[@SaraTaylor]

I’m so sorry about your accident, I hope you’re healing well and I’m glad art has helped your healing process.🙏

[@peterboon7660]

Fantastic and beautiful results. Finally someone who clearly and crispy explains the details of acrylic techniques.

[@lynnem.barry-mcmullen5278]

Mystery solved! Thank you Sara and Michelle for letting us all know this information. I really thought it was ME! I had noticed they changed the name of the paint on the black and while Artist Loft however, found the other colors still had the Flo Acrylic label. I should have just asked instead of torturing myself! This is a HUGE help! Thank you both for verifying this for all the suffering we've been through! Your paintings are and have been such an inspiration for me and I'm so grateful you and Michelle have shared your findings of the hundred s of experiments with us! Although I've only begun to become introduced to acrylic fluid art, I was tending to shy away after things weren't turning out so well after they changed the Artist Loft. I could tell the difference immediately and had thought I actually bought the wrong paint and then realized I hadn't! It was very confusing as I had just practically mastered the pearl effect and was so very disappointed I almost threw in the towel. I'm so glad I didn't and will try this instead! Thanks so very much to both yourself and Michelle! YEAH!!!

[@dreamcatcher3861]

I can't wait for this video, if you're loving the effects....my goodness they're going to blow us away! X

[@debbielanford9]

Thank you Sara for sharing so freely with everyone. Your art is just bursting with love!

[@SaraTaylor]

UPDATE!!!! 🎉 I have experimented more with golden gloss color pouring medium. I do not recommend it for this recipe. Please do stick with GAC 800. There’s also another chalk paint called Dixie Bell. That is absolutely incredible for this technique!

[@vintagejunktofunk4616]

I was a brand ambassador with Dixie belle! I have sooo much paint!. What do you recommend I use with Dixie belle chalk paint?! Thank you!! ❤

[@dreamcatcher3861]

Oh my goodness Sara, wow! You have definitely nailed the issues. These pearls are perfect. Even hearing you talk, it was an audible relief, you’ve found you again. I think this beautiful painting should be called, Mantra, because it’s you. 🙏🏻🌻🌻🌻

[@SaraTaylor]

Thank you! It was really nice to get back to a painting like this. They seem to kind of drift away a little bit and I think it was ultimately the paint. I’m excited to see where this goes! 🙏✨

[@annedoran5469]

Such great words of wisdom: "When you're ready to give up, you have a breakthrough". That has certainly been my experience.😆

[@SaraTaylor]

Absolutely! I’m so glad that spoke to you. It’s definitely how things work for me. Sometimes I actually get excited when I’m hitting a wall because I know somethings going to happen.

[@dawnyoung4077]

Gorgeous

[@meeses3]

1st LOVE the paiting. In my own weird way, I see many muppet creatures that have been formed by the pearls - how wonderful! AND ... thank you, thank you so much for working with Michelle and coming up with a new recipe.

[@clairediaz1518]

Outstanding job Sara and thank you for sharing your info and journey with art. It’s absolutely stunning

[@dcaloger]

I can’t find the translucent base paint recipe. Can you help?? 💕

[@dcaloger]

I can’t find the translucent base recipe. Can you help please. Sara you and Michelle are my idols!!

[@lindahoagland7516]

Thank you and Michelle for doing the work and the experimenting for finding a solution for the problems with the artists loft. It affects several different methods of painting. And the painting is beautiful! I love it. Love the flow, love the colors, love the feeling it evokes. Good job.

[@sharondavis3561]

I am so glad you said that Sara, not to give up because the other day I was just about too give up I got sooo frustrated and then low and behold I got pearls! Thanks again Sara!!

[@lisapoulin1853]

Thank you tons. Love your work and how gracious you are about your fellow artists.

[@robinbrennan4561]

I love the idea of using a dropper to add color and a specula to move and accent the painting. So beautiful!

You apologized to me for using floetrol 🤣🤣🤣 you're the sweetest. I'm gonna continue watching now X

[@luluspittles5424]

You are a darling and so talented. I relate to to your generosity and commend you for your dedication. Yet, I suspect many other artists are a little intimidated by you. You are a force of nature!

Hi MelyD!!

[@dilrup65]

That you sure are. I am in total awe of your work thus will see you in Seattle for all your sessions. So looking forward to seeing you and your work firsthand.

[@debizyskowski511]

Love the teaching videos! Thank you! It makes so much sense for those of us that started recently! The first few paintings I did were with the old flow paint. I couldn't figure out what I was doing differently. I did notice that it had a different name but didn't put that together!! I have always loved Science, Art and especially Color Theory so this "hobby"feeds my soul!!!🧡

[@SaraTaylor]

This is wonderful Debi! 🙏✨

[@christinamargulski9680]

Waiting with anticipation. 🤩 I just woke up and checked premier time. Your work is absolutely amazing. Thank you for time. 🙏🏽

[@idyllicacrylicsjulieb4328]

Love the new soft body white for cloud mix☺☺☺

[@biner59]

💕…Elyse’s technique with wall paint and milk paint was my introduction to this technique a few years ago. Someone else who I think was a bit of a pioneer in this art form was Paul Startart with his paint bomb technique that blossomed into the “Dutch pour”. Nice that you are recognizing some of the pioneers💕💕👍

[@justkerry173]

The Dutch Pour, I think, is credited to Rinske Douna.

[@ChristinaWelch]

@@justkerry173 it's all been done before, artists just give it a different name. They are all beautiful no matter what

[@SaraTaylor]

Yes, Funny that you said that, I actually mentioned Paul below in my notes because he is amazing!

[@joeadams9040]

Keep in mind that Rinske uses Amsterdam paints and water almost exclusively with no other mediums. Amsterdam seems to have an ingredient (I'm guessing a petroleum product) in it's paints that creates cells all on its own. Floetrol which was developed to eliminate brush marks when painting wood trim has a similar ingredient and produces cells when added to acrylics. In my experience Amsterdam's cells are more lacy and when used with an activator like minwax wood conditioner, floetrol and perhaps polyurethane are the basis for swiping to achieve a sheelee type effect. Other acrylic paints don't seem to work quite as well. Of course this has little to do with the cloud effects Sara is discussing ( and a master at I think)

[@justkerry173]

@@joeadams9040 I was just referring to the term Dutch Pour, Rinske being Dutch an' all. You're right about Sara, she never fails to produce stunning pieces of art.

[@SM-ri5kn]

Thank you so much for this! I made my first attempts at pearl paintings in April of this year using a 2020 bottle of the Artist’s Loft paint. I ended up so frustrated at my results that I stopped painting all summer because I felt like I was just wasting canvases. I have done a few ring pours and Dutch pours since my kids went back to school and am starting to regain my confidence, so I think with this video in mind I will attempt a pearl painting again!

[@SaraTaylor]

Awesome! This is wonderful.🙏

Sara, Thank you so much for all the hard work you've put into testing products to find the best results and sharing the details with us. I am new to Fluid Art, and I'm so thrilled that I've found you early on in my new journey of color. I've only started painting about 10 months ago after having Vivid dreams of being an artist. My first month in, I sold almost 20 pieces, and have had numerous commission work. Now that I've started fluid art ( 6 pieces done this week) and all have turned out amazing. I am now ready to start using Australian Floetrol and Gac 800. I'm going to try some of your recipes. You are truly an inspiration and a gift to all of us. Thank you again for everything that you do. I greatly appreciate you. Have an amazing day! Stay safe!

[@SaraTaylor]

This is awesome! You will love these techniques ❤

Thank you so much Sara it’s so nice you sharing such important info with us👍🏾

You are a breath of air. Thank you very much. I live in Central France and getting ingredients has been tough. I experiment, I fail, I spend more than I can afford for shipping and get so excited when the mail comes. I was pretty close to giving up today. But you made me pull my socks up, put my apron on and go again.

Sara you are such an inspiration, you don’t know how helpful you are to newbies like myself. I’ve just this week had a go with the cloud pour. Didn’t work well. I had the clouding but no cells. I’m going to give your recipe a go, but here in the UK products are sometimes different. Thank goodness for Amazon…..😂👩‍🎨🎨

Thank you for being such an inspiring artist.I used folk art milk paint for years with great results and wondered why there was no more on the shelves last year.I called PLAID the manufacturer of folk art milk paints and they said they had discontinued the product due to poor sales. So thanks for continuing to give us all alternatives.

Thank you Sara. We all have been waiting for a recipe for the 20-21 artist loft paint. Thank god they are going back to the 2019 mix.

[@ginotanabe4598]

Hi Sarah, First of all, HUGE fan of yours. Everytime I look at a pour I'm like, OH I LOVE THAT... it's you. :) I don't know if you were going to look at a year old post. But wanted to let you know that I tried out pearl pour and added Apple Barrel to the Artist Loft Soft Body Paint along with Floetrol, water, and Behr. When I did that, I think that the 2022 Soft Body is different than the 2020 and 2021 that you referenced. When I started to tilt my canvas, the pearls came up so fast that by the time I was halfway done, they started to overlap and it became sort of marbled effect. It's kinda pretty, but not what I was going for. LOL. I was going to try and use it without the Apple Barrel and see what it looked like. Then I found that Sarah Mack has a new recipe without the Apple Barrel, so will try that tomorrow. Thank you again for what you do and your inspiration both in your art as well you!

[@SaraTaylor]

I completely understand, her recipe is very simple, Howe to get the effect that I love I do prefer adding GAC, Liquitex pm and a bit of apple barrel. Of the effect is to much you can scale back a bit on the satin enamel. It’s interesting how the same recipes work differently in different climates and for different artists. I hope you keep experimenting until you find what works for you.🙏❤️🙏❤️

[@dianebrotherton9070]

Thank you for sharing the pearl secret. I really enjoy watching you add the secondary colors and detail.
