Beautiful piece and very nicely executed!

[@lorettaj.madera3341]

I enjoyed this video and can't wait to try this technique. Thanks for sharing your art! Beautiful!

[@HopskotchBunny]

Very interesting technique and I love the outcome. I am seeing more professional artists using the plastic wrap to create textures and designs in their art and cannot wait to try it. Thanks for sharing your video with us. 🎨

[@LindaCelestian]

Thanks for watching and commenting. I have used it again in another painting you can see on my Instagram feed at Linda Celestian. I have video but I haven't edited it yet. I need to get on that.

[@TravelerPaints]

Really cool,looks like this technique is a great tool.

[@LindaCelestian]

Yes it is. You can see how I use it in another painting here kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y3aoknVrfZ57etU. And here is a video showing different mixtures and how they look when dry kzbin.info/www/bejne/qmrSoauemMaYnbs Thanks for watching!

[@beckyhedges4481]

absolutely gorgeous!

[@LindaCelestian]

It's recommended to use medium because the paint companies say that if the polymer particles are too far apart, which watering them down does that eventually it will flake off. This is not true when it's done on paper where it soaks in. I paint on gessoed canvas so I follow the recommendation of the paint company:)

[@baddonkey75]

+Linda Celestian do you have to prep the canvas and if so what with

[@LindaCelestian]

+Crunchbang 75 The canvas is primed with gesso and then acrylic paint which a toned grey.

[@ericahafen2708]

this is an amazing piece

[@empressofherteatable]

Erica Hafen aaaaaahahaha! you need to get out more!

[@LindaCelestian]

Julee, I add airbrush medium to fluid acrylics and a little water. The paint and medium are Golden brand. Thanks for watching!

[@Random-hj6rm]

what it make a difference if u use pouring medium?

[@LindaCelestian]

Pouring medium is a bit thicker, Airbrush medium is thinner and flows better because it's meant to be put through an airbrush and not clog.

[@terranceramsey586]

this is a great painting.

[@traceyhilder3426]

Fabulous I love this effect I’m new to your channel & thanks for sharing your gift

[@LindaCelestian]

Thank you so much!

[@hippydippy]

Cool! I've been wanting to try a similar technique using bubble wrap.

[@LindaCelestian]

Bubble wrap is a really fun thing to use. I just used it in an ink painting that will be part of a new video I'm working on. Thanks so much for watching!

[@trp90210]

what colors did you use

[@samradja5275]

Brilliant !!!

[@LindaCelestian]

Thank you so much!

[@kathleenstrode455]

Outstanding...love the concept of pouring will have to try some day soon..the color seem extra vibrant..

[@gracerx]

What is the golden bottle in the top right at about minute 1:34? I see you squeeze that into your pour cups a couple of times. Thanks!

[@LindaCelestian]

Steve m.g I'm using airbrush medium and a little water to thin my paints. If you add too much water it can be unstable as in it will crack in 10 years or so the paint company says it will. Airbrush medium is milky but dries mostly clear.

[@gracerx]

That's what I thought. I've been using that as well. Thanks for the heads up!

[@gracerx]

Another question, which gesso are you using?

[@dorothysfriend]

Thank you, very clever AND brilliant.

[@klausder6636]

Very Good Linda Nice

[@LindaCelestian]

Thank you!

[@urvashisy9295]

Thank you, Linda it is awesome, but how to stop the paint running together? when i pour on a new color it blends in and disappears!

[@LindaCelestian]

I know this video doesn't explain this but I let each layer dry before pouring another layer. I'm working in acrylic paint so I put a fan on the painting and leave it over night. If you watch closely you'll see what each layer looks like wet and how it looks different when it's dry. In my newer video series Abstract Acrylic Painting Tools and Techniques I explain everything I'm doing.

[@urvashisy9295]

@@LindaCelestian thanks Linda, that makes absolute sense! I appreciate your response.

[@Random-hj6rm]

thats so awsome! what colors are you using?

[@jillwilhelm1]

How long to you leave the Saran Wrap on the wet paint before removing it?

[@cjr313]

Linda's reply to someone else's question. : was letting the pours dry for 24 hours before doing another pour. With the saran wrap it might take even longer. As you can see in the video some paint peeled off when I pulled the saran wrap off. If you don't want this to happen leave the saran wrap on longer. Dry air would be perfect for this technique. I deal with the opposite so I use heat and fans to try to hurry up the drying.

[@nattyw495]

Interesting..process enjoyed video liked the colors..did you have to leave the saran wrap on paint long??.🎨✍

[@LindaCelestian]

Thank you! I usually leave the saran wrap on until the paint is totally dry. You can see in that video the paint wasn't totally dry and it lifted a lot of the paint off at 3:07 but still looked cool. You can watch this video to learn about the technique kzbin.info/www/bejne/qmrSoauemMaYnbs and here kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y3aoknVrfZ57etU to see me use it in another painting. Thanks for watching.

[@annasteele9464]

How do you blend your paint? Regards from Iceland

[@LindaCelestian]

I blend my paint in a cup, just by giving it a stir with a palette knife.

[@miguelsuarez8010]

Beatiful textures. What is the music being played?

[@LindaCelestian]

Thanks. Sorry I don't know where I got the music. I made this video a long time ago and I used non copyright music that I could find on the internet.

[@КуликоваИрина-т6н]

How many time you wait before up the plastic?

[@LindaCelestian]

I let it dry over night, longer if it's very thick. I want it to be completely dry before I remove the plastic, that gives the best result. Thanks for watching!

[@rudolf69]

Hi Linda, I have a question (or two). Do your let a pour dry before you apply the next pour? Also, for how long do you leave the cling wrap on? Does your work take one hour, or one day or longer? I love your work. I am in a small town close to Las Vegas ,NV U.S. in the Mojave desert. and the air gets really dry here. 5% humidity. Would that make a difference?

[@LindaCelestian]

+Rudi K Hi Rudy, I was letting the pours dry for 24 hours before doing another pour. With the saran wrap it might take even longer.

Thanks Linda. I appreciate you taking the time for an answer. Love your work.

[@AngelasMixedMediaArtist]

Beautiful interesting art thx.

[@widadsyed9865]

you added water ?? it just cool

[@LindaCelestian]

Airbrush Medium

[@kaneez107]

Absolutely love this painting! Is it possible to mix the paint with water if the canvas is not gesso'd?

[@LindaCelestian]

Yes I believe so.

[@elfiewilkins6639]

This may be too late to get to you and help you. Problem with raw (un gessoed) canvas is that color will stain it, then you no longer have the freedom of selection. Stains will stay. Helen Frankenstein was doing it on raw canvas.

[@Random-hj6rm]

theres like 2 types of texture or is it me? r u using the same kind of mediums for all the colors?

[@creativeaimee]

Hi again, ma'am! How many days did you do this painting? Also, may i know the coloRs that you used? I'll try to make one for my grandparents house. Thank you once again ma'am!

[@LindaCelestian]

Hello, I think I worked on this over a few days. The video doesn't show how many times I let the layer dry completely that takes a day at least. The colors are Golden Fluid Acrylic, Phthalo Blue(Green Shade) and possibly Primary Cyan, then I mix one with white for the light color and one with a little bit of black for the dark color. I use Airbrush medium to thin the pain even more. Good luck and have fun!

[@joeycasino7944]

Love that painting do more.

[@LindaCelestian]

Thank you for the kind words about my video!

[@gracerx]

First: Super cool! Second: I can't quite tell, but are all the pours drying (curing?) fairly transparent or translucent? Thanks!

[@LindaCelestian]

Steve m.g If I use a lot of airbrush medium , water and very little paint then the layer will be transparent. I vary the amount of paint in the pours to play with translucency. Thanks for the positive feedback!

[@fournierveronique6466]

J'adore!

[@rondagarner7752]

I meant for the comment to go here and it went on the heart video. but this video was awesome. Smilz

[@sunsetpalms1923]

How long do you leave the plastic wrap on?

[@LindaCelestian]

I leave it on overnight or until the paint is dry. Ion one step I didn't which pulled paint up but that looked cool too.

[@LindaCelestian]

I leave it until the paint is dry and it peels off fine. If the paint is not all the way dry it pulls it up which actually happened in one area. It just made a different kind of pattern.

[@cecilianaranjo8858]

Hola, me agrada esta técnica, gracias!

[@kazimkazim8197]

I've been searching for this sunce last 5 days and now that i've done it I just found it

[@chuscaace6321]

Amazing

[@LindaCelestian]

Thank you!

[@gracerx]

You must have the industrial size bottle of Airbrush Medium. It would be nice to get it in one of those big pump bottles.

[@vickyrafael1]

Just fantastic ! As I understood you very well you did this job on a gessoed canvas, but did you also use any medium with your watery acrylic paint Linda? Thanks

[@LindaCelestian]

Vicky rafael Hi Vicky, I use airbrush medium, fluid acrylics and water. It's important to not use too much water. The medium is a milky white that aids in making this look like ice.

[@vickyrafael1]

Linda Celestian This work of you really is that very awesome ... wow what an effect you've got this way

[@LindaCelestian]

Vicky rafael Yes I use a gessoed canvas with airbrush medium. Thanks for watching!

[@FloralHeart]

Hi Linda, this is a very artistic pouring... and your table is especially covered to catch the spills. May I ask what kind of material do you use to cover the table ? Thanks

[@LindaCelestian]

Hi, Sorry I just saw this. I use paint tarps that have an absorbent side and a plastic side so they hold the liquid. I buy them at a hardware store or paint store.

[@KaileyB616]

I was using airbrush medium until I found another product from golden called GAC 800, you should definitely look into it it's made just for these kind of paintings

[@LindaCelestian]

+Kailey Bender Thanks I'll take a look at it and give it a try. Thanks for watching and commenting.

[@chelfyn]

+Kailey Bender GAC800 is very similar to the Liquitex Pouring Medium that is often used in these youtube videos. I think it would really help if they labelled it as such, instead of "GAC800: Reduces Crazing". It's excellent stuff though, and a great consistency for pouring. It also requires very little paint - a 9:1 mix with Golden Acrylic gives a rich solid colour.

[@KaileyB616]

yeah exactly Chelfyn Baxter ! I had never even heard of it before... I was in like a specialty art supplies store looking through all the mediums and i happened to see this on the bottom shelf.... before this i had been using airbrush medium. they really should label it differently

[@elfiewilkins6639]

Chelfyn Linda, paint's consistency seem quite watery, and GAC 800 is thicker than water, also it dries with a yellow tinge. Most likely a Flow Aid additive or a Airbrush medium may work better for her method. Just a thought.

[@fredericdumont6576]

it is airbrush medium

[@elfiewilkins6639]

Hi Linda Just passing on some information. I saw a tutorial by Nancy Reyner. She was a spoke woman for Golden and she now wrote 3 books on acrylic. Her work consist mostly of washes. Nancy saw a video where the woman told the viewer never put more than 50 % water in the acrylic paint. She said she wanted to straighten out that misconception. You can put even 1:1 paint and water if you wish to produce a watercolor look. If you put less, then the colors will be a bit stronger. Even less water then the color are even stronger etc. She also mentioned that method works well if the paint is of high quality. She then puts a varnish over her finish work. In this video did you layer the paint wet on wet? It looks like the white mingled with the underneath color. Or the video was simply speed up. I admire your creativity/

[@LindaCelestian]

Thank you! I will look up her work and books. I sometimes use more than one color in a pour for a wet into wet technique then I let it dry before doing the next pour. Thanks for watching!
