WOW! Which Color had the biggest SURPRISE?! BEAUTIFUL Liquid Puddles + Negative Space

[@3dlovely]

Really beautiful. Yes, there is a lot of movement and I love it. It is becoming difficult to decide which one I like the best! They are all so beautiful. Thank you for sharing your skills, knowledge and technique. If anyone lives in the USA, I just saw Michaels has these paints and other Amsterdam paints with various sales going on -- one is buy one, get one 50% off. All sales are mostly online only. Denise ❤

[@MarkJRatcliffeArt]

Good morning, Mark Very lovely. I like the marble lines. The dark parts are from the black background, really . add different colors to your colors. I like the negative space. I really have been enjoying this series of paints. Yes, I am also on who is tilting the phone along with you. Thank you for your time and direction every time. Have a wonderful day. I'm looking forward to seeing your next piece. See you next time, Mark 😊

[@pamelar3607]

Absolutely Beautiful!! This piece made me smile when u showed the dried version. U really balance that marble perfectly. I think I see a ballerina when I look at it. 💃 I have a thought what would it do if u did the piece the exact same way but after u stretch it out completely put the marble bk on it & balance it all over again. 🤷🏼‍♀️ Great piece! I Love it !!

You know Mark. Every time when I start to mix up my colors for my next painting I am scared. What if it doesn' t work and something goes wrong. Your videos give me always piece and your words " take your time and be kind to you self" give me the right motivation to go ahead. One more time THANK YOU very much. Alena from Slovakia.

[@MarkJRatcliffeArt]

@@AlenkaHatarova thank you so much xx your comment really made me smile 😊

[@artwithalison]

This is very beautiful Mark. A great effect with the marble taking the colours around the canvas. I'm loving those pearlescent paints look. Though it does add an extra challenge, not being able to see the colours very well while you are working. You do an awesome job.

[@MarkJRatcliffeArt]

Thank you so much 😊

[@estellegoodnight6338]

Mark -- This is a fabulous piece! I love the big blocks of colors and the negative space. Makes me want to immediately go to my studio and try this.

[@MarkJRatcliffeArt]

Thank you so much Estelle - go for it 😊

[@estellegoodnight6338]

@@MarkJRatcliffeArt I did one yesterday and I am very happy with it EXCEPT as of this morning my colors are still very muted. How long does it take for the pearlescent colors to come up fully? I can't imagine if I'm doing something wrong. I used a different black paint this time.

[@OnBeingFurnando]

This is beautiful. At least on my screen, it looks like velvet. So pretty! Have a great rest of the week and weekend Mark!

Beautiful Mark! Its soooo funny bc I thot I was the only one tilting my phone as you tilt the piece! 😂😂😂 I love watching you and the patience and “mindfulness” that you have! For me it is sometimes all about getting to the finished piece (bc I am excited to see the final creation!) and not about enjoying the journey! Thank you for showing me there is alot of excitement and enjoyment in the journey as well!

[@caobita]

Another awesome piece of yours. It's so fascinating how rich the colours get when they dry. So good you kept some negative space. It gives the piece some extra depth. You're so good at driving the marble. I probably would get nervous and it wouldn't go where I want it to go. The design is absolutely awesome. In the middle I can see a mermaid. It's always a joy to watch you create your artwork 🖒💖

Hello Mark !! 👋 I'm happy to see another video with perlescent paint. Amsterdam might give you a paid promotion for popularizing their painting, or sponorised you. 🤗 I am one of those who appreciates your creation, this painting is really very beautiful. 👍💯 I'm glad to know that I'm not the only one moving my cell phone and forcing with you when you tilt your canvas for the final result. 🤩 My marble is much smaller and I think this gives more lines of color when moving it on the canvas. If ever you are interested in trying it with a smaller, 5/8 inch, steel ball. I wish you a good week and a good weekend to you!! 🌈🌈🌈

[@MarkJRatcliffeArt]

Thank you so much Caroline! Using the marbles are so much fun! Haha I know Amsterdam won’t sponsor me for using the paints, that would be lucky if they did right? Thanks always for all your kind support and encouragement

Hi Mark. First, I LOVE all of your work!! But I especially love the pearl paints. I have done a number of paintings with them. I wanted to ask you if you thought they would work as a layered flip cup, or a dirty flip cup (marble pour)? Thank you for any help you can give me. 😊

[@MarkJRatcliffeArt]

Thank you so much. If you do a flip cup make sure you drizzle some black paint between each layer (not too much though!).

[@brendataylor5928]

Beautiful Marc! I tried to do this yesterday but ended up tilting most of it off🙁 I think I had too much paint and it was too thin. I will try your ratio and see how I make out. It’s all about trial and error for sure in acrylic pouring but I am not giving 😅up! Love from NB Canada!

[@MarkJRatcliffeArt]

Thank you so much 😊 Yes absolutely trial and error 💜

[@MarkJRatcliffeArt]

[@minpuno7150]

Nice job! You are always full of surprises.. I do have a question When I try to find the pearlescent paint on line they only offer the pearl paints, would these pearl paints give the same result?

[@MarkJRatcliffeArt]

I’m not sure - do they appear white? I’ve only used the Amsterdam ones? So for example, Arteza have a “Pearl” range but are nothing like the pearlescent (color changing)

[@robynwatts47]

Im a bit confused as to what your pouring medium is please? Then how much of this do you use to mix in with the pearlescent paints? Is your black base the same mixture please? Thank you

[@MarkJRatcliffeArt]

Thanks Robyn, check out each video description where I provide all the information on brands and ratios 👍🏻

[@luciaperez1872]

Salve, mi può dire per favore la quantità di vernice e anche l'acqua o qualcos'altro ? Grazie dei perlati

Be careful with your marble if you have a cat. My marble rolled off the table and before I even had a chance to experiment with it, the cat claimed immediate ownership and I haven't seen it since. BTW, what a stellar piece of artwork!

[@MarkJRatcliffeArt]

Good tip! I don’t have a cat but hope yours is ok!

@MarkJRatcliffeArt The cat is fne! I hear her wildly playing with the marble in the wee hours of the morning, but I can never find my marble.
