Watching Paint Dry - Lumiere Halo Paint Effects on Polymer Clay

I discovered an interesting effect you can create using Jacquard Lumiere Halo paints. Check out the accompanying blog post with how I got to this point - and what I did after! gaylebird.com/2017/08/26/watching-paint-dry-lumiere-halo-paint-effects-on-polymer-clay/

I'm a resin artist, but have been playing around with polymer clay recently and had to stop by just to let you know the outcome of your technique using these paints is absolutely phenomenal and has inspired me to purchase the paints and more clay! Thank you for sharing and of course, I had to subscribe and like!

Whoohoo!! I hope you have the most fun ever!

[@ABergieCreation]

[@debbeechy]

[@GayleBird]

+. Beetique It always turns out great!

[@vonniescrafts1]

Oh great had my paints yesterday love this x

[@GayleBird]

Perfect timing!

[@patriciapolomski6944]

Great tips thanks

Where can I buy those molds you used ? Absolutely stunning design!

[@bevjack1]

So, If I was doing a bird on a journal cover, I would need to bake the bird, paint it, spritz, dry and THEN glue onto the journal? I love the work you did here.

[@myszkabrudnicka2244]

What do you use to seal the paint?

[@ellib2231]

These look gorgeous! Can you bake the pieces again after you do this to heat set or will it dull the effect. Really enjoyed watching the paint fizzle. Thank you for sharing.

+Elli B I actually don't know! Try it and report back :)

[@ellib2231]

I tried a couple of hours after I left the comment. My results were nowhere near as gorgeous as yours, but I baked after and could see no colour shift or dulling, so I will experiment more to try to get results more like yours (eventually ;)

The links you provide for this paint are in a different bottle than what you use in the video. Are the paints you used from the exciter pack? Are they acrylic paints or alcohol ink?

[@Leopard1inSC]

Beautiful ... can you use this technique on fabric? 😍

[@GayleBird]

I have no idea!! Give it a try and let me know

[@deborahdavis5987]

How archival is it? Is it necessary to bake it on? Thanks for the video.

[@GayleBird]

It's an acrylic paint... I did seal these.

[@GB58able]

Thanks for the tutorial. I've never used Lumier paints, is it used on baked PC? What other types of paint can I use on Baked clay?

[@GayleBird]

+Gloria Borrero I'm pretty sure you can put anything on baked clay BUT be careful of sprays as they can turn it sticky.

[@leslieschmidt1508]

Lumiere metallic paints are the most awesome paints out there. If you buy the small bottles, be sure to shake them well before using as they tend to separate into the color and the colorless extender, then your color changes later on and is more concentrated. I tend to squeeze a small amount onto a plastic plate first, then use it or mix it. The are Hi Lite colors which are a clearish white with a hi lite color (red, violet, blue, etc.). Have fun experimenting. I spray paint a metal piece with ivory or white spray paint, then later on paint with Lumiere colors as desired. I often use a sea sponge to dab on the colors but you can dab with a brush. Have fun.

Does it need to be only the halo colors? Not the others?

[@GayleBird]

Correct. I'm not sure what will happen with the other colors, but I'd love to see what happens when you try!
