We are so pleased to feature Toronto based artist Mike Hammer!
Mike is such an inspiring artist. His work is so unique and so colorful that we had to feature him in our artist series :)
In this video, Mike shares the process behind his "blobs" and who influenced his work. Mike has great insight into his own work as well as the work of the artist in general. We found it fascinating just to sit down and chat about color and paint and the enjoyment Mike gets from the blob process.
Mike has some great advice and a wonderful perspective. We hope you enjoy sharing a moment with him and the beauty of the blob!
Enjoy :)

Absolutely gorgeous 😍 I've loved your work Mike for years. Your so talented. I to say lord will my art ever be....
As an aspiring artist myself,I have the same relation to the paint and all it entails when when I'm working with it.
I so enjoyed viewing this wonderful video! Such amazing talent, thanks for sharing with us!
So inspiring!! Love your energy and the obvious source it comes from!!!
"Oh So Groovy".... Love Love Love your energy!!!!! Keep Blobbing my artist friend, you speak for all of the ones like us......
That fan like one you have is stunning, wish I knew how to make it. Thank you for your time explaining how and why you do the blobs
I like your passion for the work you feel compelled to create ~ CHEERS!
I love Mike's work❤️
Love your art. It really speaks to me!
GREAT interview! I could live in one of those colorful blob paintings and be content for the rest of my life
Very cool! Glad I found you through Deby! So original and fun. Best of luck on your journey 👏👏💥🌷
Que maravilla de taller cuántas pinturas
Omg, Mike! I'm like looking at a male version of myself... Only you are the future me where I'd like to be... In my own studio, same vision... Kind of freaked me out! Blob painting was something I dreamt about but never saw one until KZread. That freaked me out too! After experiencing a horrific couple of years of trauma, loss and despair, I found light with fluid acrylic art. Thanks for igniting the fire to live with passion. Love and light, man 😉

I LOVE THISSSSS!!
It would be interesting to watch him apply resin to one of his pieces.
I love your blob paintings. I first saw Deby Cole's blob painting and had to watch your video. The heavy gel medium the she uses I can't find anywhere, was wondering what you use. Your art is so beautiful. Thanks for your help.

I am starting out in abstract art. I’m going ok but I agree with you in many ways of trying to be original. Since I started about one year ago I have managed to sell 9 paintings and have been commissioned to do some for a beach shop here in Palm Coast Florida on Flagler Beach. I was wondering if there are any pointers that you could give to me about how to get my work out there to the public for people to enjoy. I’m also doing a gallery show here in Palm Coast at the Flagler Art League next month. If you would like to see some of my work please let me know. I would really like an honest opinion from such a skilled artist. Awesome Artwork By The Way!!!

What is your ratio of paint to resin?

Not sure if Mike monitors this video as it's on the ArtResin page, but you might want to reach out to him on his social media or thru his website ( mikehammer.ca ). I'm not sure that he adds resin to his paint .. I have a feeling he simply clear coats his paintings in ArtResin, but definitely worth asking him.
how does he get his paint to dry without cracking etc?
