HOW TO - Minamalist Monochromatic Cloud Pour - And the Don’ts (they’re first)
Wow guys!! I’m so excited!! My friend and talented artist, Lori Cleary sent me to Sarah Taylor’s channel. I binge watched her and saw the collaboration with Dwight Myers (Dwight Pour). Both are talented and I can tell they are super cool!!
Here’s a link to their respective channels:

I’m mesmerized by the cloud pour and cloud mix lately!! The cells.....ooh la la!!
This video shows the dont’s first, then the right way to do it!! I don’t mind making mistakes, it helps me learn and grow as an artist. And I don’t mind making mistakes so you don’t have to!!
Consistency is absolutely KEY here!! Super thin!! Like not even a bit of a trace. On the first one, there was way too much base paint, the colors had a slight trace so they sunk and disappeared completely. And it looks like some just didn’t work well at all.
The base paint (cloud mix) has to match the colors consistency. Testing them on a card would be the best bet.
In the end, I used modern masters in Venetian blue with Goldens Prussian blue hue and anthricrinome blue.
Sarah mentions in on of her videos that modern masters metallics cell. Thanks Sarah

    If you put too much base on it’s ok to tip the extra back into your cup, rather than waste it. It looks as though the blue is thinner than the white in the first part as it clearly sinks.The cells look very pearl like - great effort! It has a lot of depth. Simple is good.

    Thanks sherry!! I use 1:1 ratios of artist loft flow white and Decoart satin enamels generally 3oz each. Mix that up really well. Then I add 6oz of Floetrol and just a small squirt of GAC800, maybe 1 tsp. Then gradually add water to thin so it doesn’t leave a trace. I hope this helps. I’m really bad at using ml or grams. This is easier for me. ❤️❤️❤️

  • @peterhoareartist
    @peterhoareartist2 жыл бұрын

    Michelle, loved this video, thank you so much for its clarity and usefulness. What do mean by ‘trace’? Is it to do with consistency of the paint, meaning that the paint in a cup is thin enough when drips from a stick mix instantly on hitting the paint in the cup, and don’t form a ‘hump’ on the surface even for a second or two? Such a difficult process, this determination of consistency. I believe the comparative method of putting drops of each colour and base paint on a piece of paper and then tilting to check relative speeds/distances which they run is as good a check as any so far I have tried. Thank you!
