[@manolimotion]

Thanks so much Annelise!

[@ryanmathisen9776]

This is a different technique an it’s cool,I’m gonna try this one. Hope to see more like this.

[@manolimotion]

Thanks so much Ryan! Yes, I'll have more videos on this technique in the very near future. Please et me know if you have any questions. I think youll get the best results with this technique by layering your paints from least most dense, that is if you dont want any cells or lacing. :-)

[@kathyz8203]

The colors are awesome! Cant wait to try!

[@manolimotion]

Thanks so much Kathy! You got this! :-)

[@kathyz8203]

@@manolimotion I’m wondering how it would work with the Amsterdam pearl paints & black🤔

[@manolimotion]

I think it would turnout awesome actually! As long as the black is more dense so it doesn’t cover the other colors :-)

[@kathyz8203]

@@manolimotion So make the black a little thinner? I definitely want to try this and I’ll let you know!

[@manolimotion]

@kathyz8203 I would say either try mixing the black a little thinner but more importantly, try using a black that has a higher density such as liquitex mars black. I’d also try experiment first on a small area of a canvas to make sure the black doesn’t take over the other colors. Hope that helps :-)

[@markfranklin8831]

Beautiful job

[@manolimotion]

Thanks so much Mark!

[@lisadumas6422]

Wow that is pretty awesome. Such vibrant colors which I'm used to seeing you use. And that trawl. At first when I was watching Lance I said where did he get that big pallet knife.🤔🤣 LOL I'm loving it the technique the outcome and just throwing paint around. 🤩🤩🥳🥳👍🤜🤛✌️✌️🙋‍♀️

[@manolimotion]

Thank you so much Lisa! This one was my first scoop and fold video. Thankfully I'm getting positive feedback :-)

[@deelorenzetti7766]

This looks amazing! I want to try this! So funny you don’t know what a pansy is❣️. Hilarious! You’re so fun to watch! ✌️💜😊

[@manolimotion]

Haha! Thanks so much! :-) well, I definitely know what it is now after this video, lol

[@cathynsanders2345]

Hi Manoli, I just started painting as well. I have watched a lot of leftbrainartist on KZbin as well as Molly on KZbin.. I've learned a lot from them.. just thought I would share that w you.. I have a long ways to go myself.. but you are doing great... I'm determined to get something out of it.. lol

[@manolimotion]

Thanks so much Cathy! Yes, they are great artists and very talented. Ive learned a lot myself by gathering information from other artists here and there.

[@daisymay4183]

The layer and flip turned out so colorful and the red lacing spectacular 😊 just found your channel 😊

[@manolimotion]

Thanks so much Daisy! :-)

[@bethricecurtis4310]

That was pretty cool. Heading to the workbench to give this a try. P.S. you're not a pansy! And yes, it's a flower.

[@manolimotion]

Thanks so much Beth! You got this, its a fun technique! Well, lets just say if I were to be a flower, it would be a pansy :-)

[@NateBrightArt]

Super cool Manoli! Looks like fun and the end result is fantastic! *here's me laughing at you not knowing what a pansy is except you LOL*

[@manolimotion]

Haha! Thanks so much Nate. Definitely a fun technique. And yes....after this video, I had to look it up, lol! :-)

[@RebekahSue]

This painting is MAGICAL. Did anyone else hear "pansy purple" and think of the Mighty Morphin Flower Arrangers? (REALLY wish I bought the shirt when I saw it.)

[@manolimotion]

HAHA! Thanks so much! I used to watch the power rangers but that didnt cross my mind, thats hilarious!

[@RebekahSue]

Wish I could take credit,@@manolimotionbut I saw it on a T-shirt years and years ago.

[@hawkpaul8735]

Yes, that looked like a right mess as you were doing it, but the end result was amazing. I can't wait to try it for myself.

[@manolimotion]

Thanks so much Paul! I'm excited for you to try it! :-)

[@lisadumas6422]

I was curious to what size of canvas you use if you don't mind sharing. T i a

[@manolimotion]

This one was an 18 x 18 inch canvas.

[@Mandrolisai]

Finde deine Bilder sehr schön aber die Musik nervt. Sorry für die Kritik. Ich schau sie deshalb lautlos aber dann höre ich deine Erklärungen nicht

[@mcampain5751]

Amen to the ADHD I’m right there with you!

[@manolimotion]

Its so terrible on some days :-/

[@mcampain5751]

Pansy are flowers lol

[@manolimotion]

Haha! I learned that very fast after posting this video :-)

[@deborahhiggins8991]
