#36 Beginners Tutorial Tips & Tricks for Blooms Technique | Acrylic Pour Painting | Fluid Abstract

[@ThePaintedDreamer]

NOTE: If you can’t find these brands or are in a different country the components you want are an untinted base house paint (base c or d, base 3 or 4 whichever is lowest, deep base or ultra deep base or neutral base) plus a water based polyurethane gloss varnish to make up your Pouring Medium. If you want to try a more traditional pouring medium base because you can’t get certain components, TOTALLY go for it and give it a try 😃 it’s YOUR Art after all! 💜 Also, if you aren’t able to obtain either the US or Australian floetrols, try other options for cell activator like Amsterdam paint & water mixed thin or even silicone , this is your art, have fun with it!! 🤗💜

[@apoztr]

Is there a List of components here, and I’m just not seeing it?

[@apoztr]

Oops, sorry. Ignore my first question, I found the list. I wasn’t looking in the right place.

[@ThePaintedDreamer]

@@apoztr I saw your other comment too that you found it. I used to test a lot on this channel and have tried a variety of different untinted bases and varnishes, check the playlists and my mixing videos also. Also, my latest videos will have what I’m currently using and love in case you are interested but bottom line, they all work, it’s really what works for you, your budget and your art 🤗 have fun!

[@elizabethbillups7079]

Hi Jodie...YOU are an amazing instructor...I doubt many out there, can compare!! I've been in the art field for over 40 years (as a painter), and thoroughly enjoy watching AND listening to all that you share and create!! AND what you create...gorgeous!! And once again, those following this method of "painting" are truly blessed to have you in their corner!!! Take care!!! Betty

[@marlyndataylor2925]

So glad Karen from Waterfall Acrylics pointed your videos out. You are a well paced, patient teacher who points out little things to watch for. Your explanations in print are great too. I so appreciate all your skills packaged together to make great teaching videos. THANKS BUNCHES!

[@ThePaintedDreamer]

I think I am forever grateful to Karen (I just love her and her videos!) .. Thanks so much Marlynda! I just try to pass on my knowledge in the easiest possible way, I’m so glad it’s helpful and easy to understand ☺️💜

[@SherryStanhope]

100% She's an Awesome teacher, her & Tammy Anderson are the best at teaching! Thank you both❣️

[@MariaWalker-qo3vi]

@marlyndataylor2925 that was such a well said comment. My sentiments exactly, but I’m not as well articulated! 😂❤️

This is by far the best explanation of fluid painting I have ever watched. Thank you so much for sharing your talent and information ! You are amazing. 😍

[@ThePaintedDreamer]

I’m so glad it helped Adrienne, thank you! 🤗

[@rupaliembry]

Honestly I learned more from this video than taking the course you mentioned cuz you explain WHY things are done the way they are. Now I’ll be able to tweak some of the things I’ve been doing to get better results. Thank you!

[@gertanckaert3023]

thank you for explaining what u want the products to do, exactly

[@ThePaintedDreamer]

You’re welcome Gert 🤗🌺

[@squirrelturdz6868]

As a forty plus carpenter, trying to ease my way into woodworking,as my body wears, your videos have motivated me to try this out. Most of my life I have shied away from art, only because I couldn’t draw a decent stick person 😆, not because I don’t love art. So just know that your videos have inspired me to try something new, so thank you very much, your efforts are appreciated! 🌎✌️👽❤️

[@ThePaintedDreamer]

You’re very welcome and I’m so glad, seriously give this a go! I gravitated to fluid art because I’m like you and I just make a stick person look sad 😂 but seriously it’s really a lot of fun and relaxing. 🥰🌺

[@maureenost]

Thanks so much!! I actually have and briefly looked at the course a few months ago but I was brand new to acrylic pouring and didn’t understand that a lot of this is science. I’ve watched your video a few times and am sitting here mixing paints the way this technique calls for. You are such a patient teacher. And btw an excellent tilter! We are so hard on ourselves.

[@ThePaintedDreamer]

You’re very welcome, Maureen, thank YOU!! I’m glad this video has helped you with the blooms! Let me know if you have any questions and have fun!!! 😃😃💜💜

[@ThePaintedDreamer]

Thank you so much Annette, I really appreciate that 🥰

[@kariokiinoc]

This has been the best tutorial I have seen yet for newbies to this art form, it has really helped me so much. I am brand new to this art and have been watching a ton of tutorials and have become very overwhelmed. I was ready to give up because everyone is using different products so I was starting to spend a lot of money trying to get the same products. Your video really eased my mind that I don’t necessarily have to go out and buy the same products but to be aware of the consistency of what you’re mixing up and to be aware there will be some trial and error with using different products. I love the look of cells and lacing but so far I haven’t had any success in creating them, I even used silicone oil too but no cells appeared so I have no idea what I did wrong. I am going to try the CA that you’re teaching here and I hope I have as good as results as you did. Your work is beautiful!!! This newbie thanks you for making this video,, I subscribed to your channel so I will definitely be watching more of your videos.

Great video, thank you. I am trying for some time to obtain cells, so I hope that this tutorial will help me grow in my art.

Thank you for passing along your techniques for the Sheleeart bloom. It's true that some of the items are quite difficult to find depending upon where you live, but you came up with some great ideas to make things work with whatever you find. 😉 Thank you for creating these videos. I for one am excited to try a few of your ideas and see what happens. 😊 ☺️ You are a great instructor and I'm happy I found your videos.

[@ThePaintedDreamer]

I’m so glad this has helped! I also did experiments not too long ago with just US floetrol and paint to see how it would hold up for all the components and was pleasantly surprised. If you haven’t checked out videos 188, 190, 192 & 194, give them a go especially the last one, it may help 🤗

I’ve been watching your videos a couple of years now but I’ve never gotten around to telling you your so good! I’ve been playing around with your technique and it’s really fun, but harder than it looks! I love your designs and patterns. How do you know when to stop spinning? My “good stuff” always flies off the canvas!

[@userMarinainCol]

Beautiful. I loved how you didn't leave a big blob of white CA in the center, and how it sunk so it was colored. I loved both of them. Thank you so much

[@debbyprovost9114]

Great video, I understand it better! One question what is the ratio of floetrol and white for cell activator please. Ty

[@ThePaintedDreamer]

I’m glad it helped Debby 🤗. The ratio if you are using Australian floetrol is 4:1 (4 parts floetrol, 1 part paint). If using US floetrol see video 16 the mixing video as there are a few other components to go with it. I have tested the US floetrol at a higher ratio and it works pretty well, when it wants to it can be finicky but that’s video 91. Have fun! 💜

[@creativeroadsartbyjulialee9973]

I took the course and it was so basic .. I think it was a waste of money. I felt that I learned all of this from other videos and the technique as revolved to a whole new level

[@ThePaintedDreamer]

I’m sorry you felt that it was a waste Julia 😕. I do agree that the original course was a bit lacking as I had some questions after I took it myself but the fb group is well worth it with a lot of good people & information in there to help you along your journey. They are revamping the course and anyone that took the original course will have access to the new one so maybe that’ll help a little. The technique has definitely evolved significantly and so many artists are taking it into different directions. 🤗💜

Practice, getting to know the paints and components you are working with as well as understanding the concept all go hand in hand and you’ll be creating your own amazing art but I always say remember to have fun with it as I know firsthand how discouraging it can be when you don’t see results you may want at first!

Oh yay!! I’m so glad it worked for you 😃 you’re very welcome! 💜💜

[@luluspittles5424]

Yeesh! Thank you for this. Had to go back to basics today and having re-poured and scraped over and over I thought it best to check out your earlier blooms. Now I know, my colored paints are too thick and my CA is also. BTW, I too suck at tilting - am just a bag of nerves every time! Good job though - it ain't easy at all.

[@ThePaintedDreamer]

You’re so welcome Lulu I’m so glad it has helped! You do want your paints to flow nicely off the stick and not be gloopy and flop off. There’s a wide range it can be with that so it doesn’t need to be exact but too thick paint can give you issues as well as super thin. I hope that made sense 💜💜

[@anthonyfitzgerald3340]

[@ThePaintedDreamer]

You’re very welcome Jan! I absolutely understand the struggle, practicing definitely helps even just laying down colors with CA no pillow onto freezer paper just to practice blowing. You could also try a blower of some sort, ie hairdryer, worlds smallest blower, airbrush if you get too frustrated from mouth blowing. Just some more ideas ☺️💜

[@missdaynalee6293]

Hi! Curious if I am having crazing in my dry results...do I need to buy GAC 800 or what might else it be? Your a wonderful teacher...thank u so much.

[@ThePaintedDreamer]

You’re welcome Dayna 🤗 crazing or cracking is caused by a few things: paints are too thick, any drafts around your piece or drying too fast from temps/humidity or too much paint left on the canvas. You can try adding some GAC 800 to thin your paints if that’s the issue otherwise some trial and error may need to occur if it’s any of the others. You can also try covering your piece while it dries to slow the drying process down (top layer drying faster than lower layers causing splitting). 💜

Jodie, I didn't go for a torch to get rid of bubbles . A Bic grill lighter worked just fine. I am having an absolute ball with this new art, thanks to you. Bill Eldridge

[@ThePaintedDreamer]

Just be careful, house paint scorches easier than acrylics and the varnish is flammable and can be toxic when heated! I’m so glad you are having a ball with this, that totally warms my heart Bill! 🤗💜

Beatriz Benal Thanks so much for the inspiration. I'm so happy I found you.! In your episode #74 you showed a sheet of freezer paper with different results of various house paints you tested. Please excuse my ingnorance but I don't understand which paints had the better results, the clear or the white.? I find a lot of joy discovering this art form. Thanks again for the inspiration and for sharing your knowledge. Blessings

[@ThePaintedDreamer]

Hi Beatriz 😃👋🏻 welcome to my channel and I’m so glad you found me! Yes that freezer paper with the different samples of the untinted base paint dried is really just to show how it is on its own. They all work well as a PM base but some like it clearer than others so I was just showing the difference. It doesn’t really make them any better or worse. It’s really how your colors dry with those bases though as those samples can be deceiving, some bases may have a whiteish cast to it but when mixed with the color or pigment dry absolutely beautiful so I don’t always rely on just those samples I just like to show what they look like as some are interested in that too 🤗💜 I hope this makes sense.
