Shelee Art BLOOM HACK!! I made one minor change and GOT THIS!

The Shelee Art Bloom Technique is a fan favorite. It took the fluid art world by storm... Many people continue to struggle with finding there look. I'm here to help you with a hack tip I've never shared!
So if you haven't mastered the bloom yet you need to do this first.... Skip your pillow paint. You don't need a pillow to bloom, you need a pillow to move. ( WATCH THIS VIDEO: • #30 Shelee Bloom Acryl... ) You just need to test your recipes using 2 colors only (because who wants to waste paint). Find one that produces cells (remember I told you this isn't a beginner video). Here is a video on how to mix your pouring medium: • #71 In-depth Pouring M... I recommend only using quality tube paints... this is your Level 1 and 2 acrylic paints like Liquitex, Master's Touch, and Amsterdam. pigments and fluid acrylics require additional products and testing!
Watch this video for cell activator alternatives: • Comparison Of 6 Cell A...
Now you have cells but struggle with the blow right? Take a rectangle canvas (you don't need to use more than 3 colors). You have a recipe that produces cells so now the focus is strictly on blowing out the cell activator. I want you to create 3-4 blobs on your canvas layering your paints the same and start blowing your puddles out (of course after adding your cell activator) Try putting your hairdryer directly on top of the bloom to see what happens... Try different angles but record yourself to see the reactions. Try blooms with and without a hair diffuser. Look at this video! You want that helicopter effect. The ultimate goal is to spread your cell activator out as much as you can over your paints without digging into the pillow. Your diffuser may be directing to much force into your paints, not allowing the full potential of your cell activator to spread. Now we also need to look at our hair dryer. I don't thin k you need anything stronger than 1500 watts. Too many watts and your paints will be blown over. I have found much success with these small travel hairdryers with low wattage.
So just maybe you are just a few tweaks away from average blooms to spectacular blooms. Try this BUT REMEMBER to record and/ or take notes.

🎉 HERE YOU GO! My latest and (best) bloom recipe, step by step tutorial: kzbin.info/www/bejne/r6ndgWaQi7KNnKc

[@jillreynolds4146]

I have been watching hundreds and hundreds of videos of pouring for the past two years. You are the MOST FUN!!! No blah blah.....truly enjoyed this video and it helped me because your instruction was clear. I will be looking you up more!!

[@estherbartinikowsky6830]

Verdade! Ele é especial!

[@bienensegen1130]

Good to know. So i dont have to watch hundred of videos. End of journey. Thx

[@dizzyunlimited7654]

Same!!! I love everything about your vids… fun, clear, concise, revealing actual tips and I love your voice. You make me want to keep watching!

[@roxanegibson0617]

Mr. Brown, I absolutely adore your work! The colors in your paintings just pop and watching your videos has been such a source of inspiration for me. You're the first artist I've come across who encourages beginners like me to just get a large canvas and keep practicing. Your advice has truly made a difference. Normally, I tend to get frustrated and take breaks when things don't go as planned, but tonight I decided to try something different. I grabbed an extra floor laminate panel and just poured and blew, poured and blew! Each bloom improved as I went along. I wanted to take a moment to say thank you for your guidance and encouragement. Warm regards, Roxane Gibson

[@GarrickBrownArtStudio]

Go Roxane Go!!! Listen practice is apart of this game. They will keep getting better... and I have a HUGE video coming out with my best troubleshooting tips. Sending you bug hugs. You got this. Remember small tweaks are key to understanding what you are changing.

[@maggiekehoe4614]

Love, love, love your channel! Clear and concise instructions. Love both of these paintings. Asthma makes my mouth blows weak but a blow dryer makes all the difference.

[@GarrickBrownArtStudio]

Awww thanks for the love! So glad for those hairdryers lol 🥰

[@carlabass1926]

"A Tale of Two Blossoms"...This is the first time I have viewed one of your demonstrations. I was very impressed, especially for a man with a sense of humor and jewels of wisdom to accompany it. I have all of my supplies purchased almost, now to find a place I can use for a studio until we move. I'm including in our home search an extra room or building I can use for a studio where I can keep all my supplies out of a huge plastic tote; and keep an easel set up all the time, too. I've always done still-😊😊lifes and landscapes. I never thought I would care about doing abstracts until I started watching all of you who have gotten a headstart that I can learn from!😊

[@GarrickBrownArtStudio]

Awwww this is so sweet. Great luck in you rnew home search. My next home must have a dedicated studio space. Abstract pouring is super therapeutic. I cannot wait to see what you will create. Thanks for the love and for watching too. Big hugs!!!

[@resinartists]

What an amazing piece of work, sir Garrick 😍😍😍💜💜💜

[@GarrickBrownArtStudio]

[@kerrivincent4440]

[@user-ul6yr7my5h]

real good paints

[@vegasmainiac7745]

I notice your paints are thicker than many other artist's and I like that. I lean toward thicker paints because I prefer the more defined colors and the way the ca holds up. If I want the watercolor effect, I can blow those in after. Your color palette is delicous!

[@GarrickBrownArtStudio]

Thanks so much. Yes I think everything artist has to find their way with thickness and what they prefer. I definitely desire those crisp lines when stretching.

[@jeanettewhite2144]

That piece is amazing xxx
