Spray paint and pouring at the same time?!?
I tried to spray paint the paint that was pouring out of my cup rather than spray after I had already poured the paint. I think the results was pretty cool.

    I want to thank you. I REALLY appreciate and enjoy your channel (meaning your work). Until I found your channel, I was unable to create the right paint viscosity to make these kinds of paints. I wasted a lot of paint and quit for a while. But your channel inspired me to try again!! YOU taught me a reliable way to test viscosity BEFORE pouring the paint on the canvas and wasting it, again!!!❤️ You also helped me improve my blowdryer techniques! This is probably the fourth time I am watching this video. Each time I watch it, I pick up another helpful piece of information! I still struggle with picking colors, but the small successes I have had in that area also can be credited to YOUR videos…you explained how to read the paint labels, how to avoid transparent paint next to transparent paint, how complimentary colors need a color between them (I use white) to keep them from mixing to brown… Seriously, I could go on and on!! The reason I think you have been able to teach me more than the other wonderful artists out there because I am left-brained, too. The other artists are extremely talented and obviously wonderful teachers, but I do not always leave their videos understanding what I came there to learn, like right-brained people do. Viva la difference! The world would be boring it we were all the same. Thank you for teaching me in my 50’s!!❤❤ Request: If you could teach me how to pick colors that will always go well together, I would watch that video 1000 times! Most people seem to be able to “just see” what colors work together. Alas, I am not one of those lucky people! I bought an advanced color wheel chart that has a cutout placed on top of the color wheel to help you find five colors that are pleasing to the eye. That has helped, but I am sure you could break it down the concepts for me in a way that I actually understand how to pick colors! Would you consider doing a video like this??

      I went out and found all the safety sheets for as many paints as I could find. Then grabbed their pigments and found the density of those pigments then guess-timated the quality of the paint to give it a density ratio. Not 100% accurate but a great guage to start from.

      I only use my hair dryers on low or no heat. Anytime you push paint around there is a change for cells. However, if you use paint that doesn't have a tendecy to cell and use mediums that aren't natural cell makers you'll seriously limit them.

      Applying gesso and letting it dry is no problem. Glue and floetrol are essentially your pouring medium although they are cheap alternatives instead of the more expensive professional pouring mediums. Mod Podge crackly definitely won't work for this. Why do you think you didn't do it right?
