[@MinaVillegasArt]

You are so sweet, thank you 🥰 GidgetnSweetpea! I love your name lol how cute!!

[@gidgetnsweetpealacarter9797]

Mina Villegas Art Gidget and Sweetpea are my two Maltese girls. They both passed away only 9 days apart. I think Gidget passed away from a broken heart 💔 after we lost Sweetpea. Some people don’t understand how much we love our furry little friends. I’m reminded of how much I miss them every time I log in. It makes me smile from all the great memories of them. I’m sorry, I don’t know why I felt so compelled to tell you such a sad story but I’m really ok with it now. Time teaches us how to cope. I do want to tell you though that your laugh is infectious and I can tell that you’re a kind, gracious and talented woman! I’m going to go and watch a few more of your videos and hope that I can learn something from you! Have a wonderful day!😊

[@redcheekfiber]

Love the colors. A friend made me a 30" x 30" turntable. I use it to turn my paintings so I don't have to continuously walk around my table to turn my piece. I have never done a painting as large as this one of yours - must try one.

[@deborahgallo6730]

Hello again from Australia Mina. You know what this looks like? It looks like the images from the Hubble Telescope, which are beyond beautiful, images of the Universe in all its wonder. I love the fact you did this outside, not confined to a building. It certainly is a wonderful gift and I am certain Tina will be thrilled with it. I love this the most because of the violet, since a child I have loved purple. Have a grand day and hugs from down under.

[@MinaVillegasArt]

Hello Dear Deborah! I love the Hubble images, they are amazing! Thank you for the lovely compliment 🥰 I'm so glad that you like it! Sending a big hug back to you ❤

[@MinaVillegasArt]

Did you see the Auroras that the Hubble captured on Jupiter? Amazing! www.reddit.com/r/space/comments/cg5wcj/jupiters_auroras_captured_by_the_hubble_telescope/?_branch_match_id=665935021060323105

[@deborahgallo6730]

No Mina I did not, so I shall look at the link you sent me. I had no idea you could send a link on KZbin, you learn something every day. I look forward to seeing more of your work, especially if it outside the house, which is so very cool to watch...biggest hugs from Mount Tamborine Queensland Australia, Google it, it is a rainforest and very pretty, you might get some colour inspiration from looking....hugs.@@MinaVillegasArt

[@deborahgallo6730]

PS: Just had a look at Jupiter, seems like you were already there, because I see a fluid pour in three parts, you certainly get around and your hubby even took photo's.lol@@MinaVillegasArt

Big, Beautiful, and INSPIRING! It turned out beautiful! I love how you have multiple camera shots going at the same time! Gives a really great feel to your videos

[@MinaVillegasArt]

Thank you Jenny! That's my husband lol because I would say get a close up of the pour part and he got tired of changing directions midstream lol.. his solution was more cameras Haha mostly old phones but they work! It does look really neat tho, and we are refining it and streamlining it I hope lol it was a bit complicated to decipher until they were all synched 😁

[@christinezavislak2349]

👋 Mina and your darling husband of awesomeness 🙂. .My husband thinks pouring outside is brilliant idea but I love my multi coloured garage floor 😂. Oh my this is stunning. Loving the deep lake. Beautiful sentiment. Karen NZ

[@MinaVillegasArt]

Hi Karen! Thank you so much! I could pour inside, I just really like being outside lol I love the sun and wind and birds (and even the damn jackhammers lol) and I like figuring out solutions to the challenges the wind and sun present.. we are having a lot of fun experimenting! All of you have been so supportive, honestly I'm blown away .. and very inspired too! Thank you and your husband for watching, and your sweet comment 🥰 try it outside lol, it's kind of crazy at first but the wind is fun 🤭

[@patvaughn9987]

Inspiring work and great instructions, too. You are a gifted artist! Obviously you don’t live in Oklahoma where the wind would add all sorts of extra elements into the paint!

[@MinaVillegasArt]

Hi Pat! Thank you so much! We are in Southern California.. I was noticing the other day that it is very clean wind, you're right! She mostly just ruffles my paper and my hair and my paint lol but I did get upset once. There is wisteria growing here, and I watched all the buds and then they finally bloomed! It was gorgeous! Then three hours later the wind came a whoopin and blew off every last bloom.. I was very upset lol obviously not the right location for that plant!

[@WandasArtwork]

Mina if you live in the US you can order 30x40 Gallery Wrapped canvases in a quantity of 3 for a really good price and free shipping from Dick Blick online !!! They are good quality too! I know, crazy! Now some of the smaller sizes incur shipping charges, but check that out and take advantage of it. You get great prices there for the splined gallery wrapped canvases in quantities of 3 or 6. I haven't ordered for a few months, so hopefully, they are still doing it on the big ones. THIS IS GORGEOUS!!! Awesome results!! Thanks for posting....... :)

[@lauriekrauss8114]

Do you add the Liquitex Gloss Varnish to all your paints? Do you need to Polycrylic afterwards? Thank you, Mina... you are a wonderful teacher!

[@MinaVillegasArt]

Hi Laurie! Yes, I mix my paints with the Liquitex Gloss Medium & Varnish. It dries beautifully with a nice luster. I don't feel the need to add additional varnish. If I'm working on a big canvas and I want more shine I can use an Archival UV Resistant Spray Gloss, Krylon has a good one. You could use Polycrylic if you want to, but with the LGM&V, you don't need to. Personal preference 😊

[@lauriekrauss8114]

Mina Villegas Art Thank you for your guidance.

[@marionholland5120]

Hello Mina! May I ask you how do you varnish such huge paintings? This painting is gorgeous!!! 👏🏼👍🏼👌🏼😍

[@brendanlees197]

Hey there girlfriend! That was lovely to watch! You are so creative and I learnt a new word? Splooging! Hahhaa! Keep up the fantastic work! Gabe xx

[@MinaVillegasArt]

Hi Gabe! 😂 I was waiting for that lol But it was true, they just wouldn't stop oozing and spreading. Splooooging . See. Pouring medium is a good thing lol 😉

[@brendanlees197]

Hahaha! Mina, I'm trying to use the word sploooging in my daily life? Maybe splurging! hahaha! Went and bought more bird seed for my million parrots! When you coming over to paint my parrots? @@MinaVillegasArt

[@MinaVillegasArt]

@@brendanlees197 where are you? And what color do you want me to paint them? 😂😂😂 a parrot pour could be fun! What colors are they mainly?

[@brendanlees197]

💜

[@monicacamilli8181]

Hi Mina, I’m new to your channel. I especially love watching from birds eye view, it helps me to see your flow logic as you explain. Thanks for sharing. I’m wondering what you are calling your “flow extender”? Or is it just the Payne’s grey and black that you thinned more in lieu of a base pour?? Oh my...a scale.

[@MinaVillegasArt]

Hi Monica! I'm glad you are enjoying the videos! Yes, my 'flow extender' is just my thinned out Payne's. If I pour it on as a basecoat then the sun and wind start to dry the edges before even pour my cup. So I took out the possibility of it drying by pouring it around my pour to still give the paint something to glide one, and to not lose my center pour design. Scales are not scary lol you can do it 😉 I hope I answered your question

[@1973dallas]

❤️

[@crislelia]

Another fabulous one! How do you calculate the amount of paint Mina? I am asking everybody, for me seems that I have way too much or not enough.....

[@MinaVillegasArt]

That's one of the hardest parts! There is a chart that tells you how much you need, but I always make up extra paint. And I'm terrible when I'm filling my pour cup, I always want to add more if I have paint lol. It's very tricky to get it right. The best thing I can tell you is get comfortable with one size and experiment until you figure out how much you need for that size, and then use that when figuring out for other sizes. I love the little 5 ounce Dixie Cups, I use those all the time for 12x12 canvas. If you are still learning, I think it's better to have too much paint rather than not enough. I'll see if I can send you the chart 😉

[@crislelia]

Mina, thank you. I have the chart, I use the smartartmaterials calculator sometimes, Julie Cuts chart have more than double the amount of paint and other artist’s have different quantities also. So confusing 🙂

[@best4last979]

Looks great!!! You had a very good attitude while you were pouring and lifting the canvas up and down to spread the flow of those beautiful colors. How many miles did you walk while running around your pour? ;o) Love the way you got rid of that solid blue lake. :O)

[@MinaVillegasArt]

😁 thank you so much! That part of the video is so funny when its sped up 6x.. I'm so glad you enjoyed it! 🥰

[@marylouniebrugge9174]

Do you varnish this or leave it as with the gloss medium you used? How much gloss medium?

[@MinaVillegasArt]

I may put a coat or two of Golden's Gloss Archival Varnish spray on it just as insurance but I really dont think it needs it. That medium dries beautifully with a gorgeous sheen, it almost feels like plastic on top. I think I used 120 g of gloss medium per color, 60 g of paint and about 10 or 15 g of water. Once that was combined I added 200 g of Floetrol

[@janicealley5033]

As always so gorgeous But, I have to ask. Where in the world are you that is so windy?

[@MinaVillegasArt]

😁 I'm in Thousand Oaks, California.. on top of a mountain lol we get a lot of breezes 🌬
