CRAZY how this dried! "Blackout" Translucent Pearl Basecoat | Fluid Art

Fluid art inspirational video! I painted the canvas, black, using a translucent basecoat. It was really interesting to see how it dried and the black came through on the final piece. I'm working a lot lately figuring out some new color palette diving into some large person paintings, it's going to be so fun! I also have the Lake retreat coming up and there's still some seats available at Fluid Art Experience!

This is so delicate Sara, I love the pearls, they’re like veining in marble, so beautiful. It must be difficult visualising the dried piece using the transparent layer, almost like painting in negative with a dark canvas. It’s so clever Sara, I love these paintings. 🙏🏻✨

[@RaindropArtbyNikkiRainey]

Oh wow! Another beauty! And a great surprise with the dried version! Love it! ❤️

[@SaraTaylor]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@claudiamann7111]

I was so surprised with the dried result. Did not expect that much of a change. It turned out beautifully. Thank you so much for sharing.

Sara, it's beautiful! Such a gorgeous example of the translucent Pearl basecoat. I haven't tried it yet but I'm just getting ready to mix up the paints to do it. I hope it turns out as nice as yours 💜

[@dominusstyx]

Hi, what’s translucent pearl base coat? Is it something you buy ready to use or you make it yourself? And if you make it, what are you using? Thank you.

[@llisamccabe1664]

@@dominusstyx the transparent pearl base is a base that will cause pearls on your top coated paints but when that transparent base dries, it dries clear so that you see the color of the canvas underneath it. In this case Sarah’s canvas was black. None of the paint she put on were black but when the transparent base dried you could see the black canvas that was there originally. To my knowledge you can’t buy the basecoat, but Sara explains how to make it in one of her other videos. I believe she highlighted it in her story underneath this video.

[@dominusstyx]

@@llisamccabe1664 Thank you so much.🥰🥰

[@lisePaquette-ue1to]

It turned out to be absolutely stunning ❤

[@daya820]

I love all your videos, I am so glad you are sharing them more often again. I like this new color combination. This piece turned out very beautiful.

[@SaraTaylor]

Thank you so much!

[@brendastarr4466]

Gorgeous!!

[@pinkmyhair]

Wow! Beautiful! Sort of tranquil, until it dried with the vibrancy in the contrast with the black! I like the color palette too!

[@SaraTaylor]

Thank you! I’m glad you liked it.

[@goddessrocks12]

How did that happen? And how did you know it would happen???!!! I’m stunned!!!

[@SaraTaylor]

So the layer that I put first was a translucent layer, that dries clear and reveals the black canvas beneath it.

[@acrylgieten]

I like you're style go whith the flow, and I love the translucent basecoat I used it also some times. greats from Holland

[@SaraTaylor]

Awesome, thank you!

[@rebeccabarnes3324]

The dried result was rather jarring, yet so beautiful Sara !

[@sabrinalettuce6927]

Oh my goodness, what a stunning piece 🤩. Incredible how it dried and love the purple embellishment. Very stylish 💜

[@SaraTaylor]

Thank you so much!

[@julierigby2813]

Wow Sara when I first saw it developing I thought beautiful ur inspired by the season of spring .. I couldn't be more surprised when I saw the dried result .. such a shape shifter! Keep up the fabulous work x

[@SaraTaylor]

Totally! I agree… shape shifter.

[@crazyladycreations]

Beautiful, I'm so glad the base showed through!

[@SaraTaylor]

Me too!

[@karenmanson1782]

Stunning Sarah.Certainly dried vibrant 🙏

[@elishakidd9753]

That was really beautiful.

[@alexandriamonk2345]

As time goes on, I think I am starting to see what you see after a while and I'm so excited by it! I didn't really know where you'd start embellishments (especially with the purple, great choice!), but after a few of them I would think about a line that needed extending. You eventually went to those spots! Of course, you saw areas I didn't. I love that you throw in a video every once in a while with no voiceovers. I really strive to connect with your thoughts and "zone" in them! Gorgeous piece, sara! I feel like this is something beautiful we'd find in the depths of our oceans!

[@SaraTaylor]

That is so cool!!

[@CnBArtStudio]

So beautiful Sara.

[@Raven-nx8ex]

Oh wow Sara! That's pretty dramatic and electric. The technique is most interesting when it dries. I look forward to your new paintings exploring this technique. You've chosen such a pretty grouping of colors which are very striking against the black background. Really like pineapple crush, flourscent purple!

[@SaraTaylor]

Thank you 🙏

[@02pomai4]

Absolutely gorgeous! The color pallet and composition work great with this technique. Mahalo Sara fir your creativity ❤

[@SaraTaylor]

Mahalo! We missed our trip to Maui this year, hopefully we’ll make it back to the islands soon.🤙

Oh Sarah. This is magical!! Thanks so much!

Thanks so much 😊

[@laimagriciene6502]

Thanks You 🙏💖🌞💐

[@alicerowan4688]

That is the craziest thing I’ve ever seen! It’s like a totally different painting after it dried. Was the translucent base simply floetrol? In all honesty, I wasn’t sure if I cared for the piece but the dried result is fantastic. The lacing really stands out, the contrast is beautiful as well as the movement and overall - I just love this. I can’t wait for more, Sara.❤️

[@SaraTaylor]

Glad you liked the end result! Sometimes that it’s hard to picture it with the translucent basecoat, what it will look like in the end. The next day it’s always a surprise!

[@bostonbutterfly4473]

Wow, love the colors! Another beautiful creation Sara. Funny bc I was actually going to test a black base tonight myself. Not quite like this but was going to see how Deco Arts Obsidian worked w the pearl technique. 🖤

[@SaraTaylor]

Oh cool, I can’t wait to hear how it turns out!

Hi Sara, I’m so enjoying trying to do Pearl pours like you do them. But, some help please: what kind of tiny brush do you use to touch up/embellish your dry paintings? My tiniest brush doesn’t hold its point so I get flat flabby lines, thanks. 😃

[@SaraTaylor]

Of course, I use a liner brush! They come in lots of different densities, but the long brush really helps with control.

[@carolinewaterstone2624]

@@SaraTaylor v many thanks indeed fir your kind reply. I did two Pearl pours yesterday that I’m fairly pleased with, but will work on one of them with the brush you suggest to outline some of the pearls! 🤞😃

as usual another video is there a color for translucent or just the way you mixed it
