I want to say thank you for sharing this .. I decided to try this out myself and am so happy at my attempt ! I would have never thought I could come close and if it weren't for you, I don't think I would have found out. This was so enjoying to do... and mine certainly isn't as perfect as yours but it did come out so pretty. Thank you ❣️❣️❣️

This is now one of my favorites💙💚💜. I don’t know if I’ll ever master the swooshes with the paint brush, but sure wish I could as it is such a striking element in your design. Also, I’m loving that you’re taking color combinations from suggestions! Thank you for sharing❣️❣️

[@lilianc5792]

What is the circle you are painting the the dots on?

[@dd1394]

Where does your art go in a persons house? Is it weather proof for placement in the garden?

[@thoughtfuldots]

On a shelf or desk or whatever area they want to brighten up! It is art that is meant to me kept indoors ❤️

[@dhanyaatre]

Do you use any medium to thin the paint. Sometimes, the paint out the bottle is not at the right consistency

[@thoughtfuldots]

What brand do you use? DecoArt Americana is always perfect for me.. except for their metallics. You can use a medium if you want but I haven’t needed to yet. If I try some other paints in the future then I might need to try a medium we will see!

[@dhanyaatre]

@@thoughtfuldots I also use DecoArt Americana. Sometime, i find the paint very lumpy and/or stringy. I have been adding water to get it back to the right consistency. But i was wondering if there is a better medium

[@thoughtfuldots]

@@dhanyaatre Hmm that is very weird! I've only experienced that if the paint was pretty old or if it was left open etc. There are all types of mediums. Just google "mediums for thinning acrylic paint". I know Liquitex makes one. That is probably what I would go with. They are a good brand!
