ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL LIGHT COLORS. I LOVE THIS, FROM GEORGIA ❤❤❤😊😊😊

On behalf of all the newbies out there, Thank you! I tried to figure this out for over a year. Not just the mixing, but the medium. I was so confused I ended up using a mixture of everything and that was disaster. I upped the quality of paint, cut out everything but the floetrol and a little H2O and now I’m doing better, not great, but better.

Mixing paints always looked so intimidating. This was such a simple but thorough explanation. Thank you!

I love how to explain everything in easy understanding you made it simple

Thank you so much for talking about consistency of paints and demonstrating the difference between brands. This is been a problem that I’ve had in the past and now I understand why the brand of paint is just as important as what you mix with it. I didn’t get it for a while. You are really a thorough teacher .

I love the very carful directions…it helps to understand….thank you

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!! I was looking for this explanation!!!❤️❤️❤️🙏

Thank you Marcy ❣️ Your direction is clear and easy to follow 😊

This is perfect timing! I finally bought Floetrol to use on tumblers. Thanks for sharing.

Great demonstration. Love the painting.

I loved the color combination with this pour! I think this is my favorite video on paint mixing so far!

Marcy trying to make paint mixing extra easy great video Marcy well done hope this help others 😊 this is a very pretty 💜 ty for sharing

Thanks for sharing this! I was going to ask you what your feelings were on pre-mixing your paints and you answered it here! I use 8 oz condiment bottles to store my prepared paints and so far, I love it. I mean... stirring paint is relaxing, maybe... but when I have a little bit of time to create, I don’t want to spend it mixing my paint.... I want to spend it POURING my paint. Thanks for being so willing to share your time, your talents and your experience. Blessings on you!

Thank you

LOVE LOVE LOVE THE FLOOD FLOETROL

I love the way you explain things. I learned so much from you on mixing paint. I'm going to work with you one day. Lol ❤

Beautiful effect and excellent guide

Great explanation. Love the colors.

Thanks

Thanks for your awesome art and teaching techniques . 😃👍👍❤❤

This is a great tutorial on mixing paint. It has been so confusing but this is very understandable. The lines on the cups were very helpful. Thank you for doing this

I love that pink

Great course Thank you

Ty I'm learning and you really helped me thank you for the 📹

You are AWESOME!

Thank you, thank you, thank you, I am so glad I found your informative tutorial, I have been intimidated by the mixing what with what, I hear about glue and Minwax, but thank you for doing this, I really appreciate the work you guys put into your craft.

Thank you so much, I have collected a lot of stuff to start and I haven’t done one canvas as yet. You have helped me so much

Thank you!

Thank you for such a great explanation of mixing paints! I just did my first paint pour a few days ago but I used pre-mixed paints. I have Floetrol and lots of other pretty colors but I have just been a little intimidated to try mixing my own. Your explanation is really helpful so I'm going to try mixing my own now and see if I can get it right :-)

Love the Arteza paints but never used the Neon's! They were awesome! xx

Thanks for the info!

I think your the best...thank you

Very helpful thank you

👍👍 James

Thanks so much!

Than you for sharing your recipe.

THANKS❣️

Great

Thanks for the video. I had to switch to glue all for a bit. Couldn't get any flotrol. The glue messed me up. This video helped...Thanks😁👍

Thankyou

Great guide for mixing paint! 👏👏 I much prefer the approximate approach! ❤ I need to try to sign up again for the free class. I think I used the wrong password!! 🙀

Hi so I can't get flood floetrol in the UK so we have owatrol and is thinner in consistency so I have pebeo or arteza paints so what would the ratio be for using condiment bottles please?

Thank you! I've found that I have to mix my paint thinner to avoid cracking. Maybe because I'm in a very dry climate. ?

Thanks for the easy explanation. When you mix in bottles to store, do you mix right in the bottle or in a cup then pour into the bottle? I want to prepare them and let them sit. Thank you!

You have a great speaking voice!

I've not used floetrol before, I'm wanting to add to the pouring medium, what is the ratio between the two

For the back of your canvas, do you tape it off, or do you paint the back if paint gets on the back? This is a question I have been stumbling over during my pours. Thanks for sharing this and your response when you have the time.

I always tape my canvases. It really pays off to have a nice clean look on the back. Also, it helps when drips accumulate such as paint, varnish, or resin because when you remove the tape, you also remove all of that junky stuff.

Do you have a video on how you go from paint in store bottle to how you mix to having in squeeze bottles?

Just watched this. I've tried different mediums, some not too successful. I'll have to get floetrol. Also, I've visited your site on the internet and would like to know if you post to Australia. I love the pre mixed colours you have. At the moment I'm on a strict budget as we just spent over 8 grand in vet bills but hopefully soon things will ease a bit

This is SUPER helpfull!! Is thier anything you can add if you have made your mix to thin and you have no idea what paint you used when you mixed it up so you really can't just add more paint?

Not sure... you could always add another color and create your own (I did that once and liked the color so much but couldn't repeat it 😢)

What type of bottles do you save your mixed paint in?

Beautiful flip cup with such beautiful colours! Most of the artists that I am subscribed to are from the USA and as I'm from Australia, I was wondering if there is a difference in consistency between American and Australian Floetrol or if it's pretty much the same? 🤷‍♀️ It's only been in the last 8mths that I learned there was a difference at all. Thanks for not getting too much into the maths, as maths has always hurt my head 😄 Loved seeing the Masse guys special for you today! Stay well and happy Marcy. 😃💜🐨🥰🤗🙋‍♀️

Hi Marcy! Thank you for this video and your free class. I learned a lot from you and I’m hoping to eventually take your other classes. I have a quick question for you or anyone else that can answer it. Can I use pouring medium instead of water? Thanks in advance for answering my question! Side note: I got your shipment of the paintings I purchased and they were more beautiful than when I saw them on screen. You’re an amazing artist! Thank you for sharing your techniques and skills!

hello there MMG did you ever use PRIMAL FLOW paint?

I have a second question (sorry). Pink followed by green. I thought I wasn't supposed to do that because they would cause brown, but that didn't happen. What did I miss?

Hi! One thing I think I’m having trouble with is I can get paints to flow off the stick that look about the same consistency but when you watch it in the cup it can either create a little mound or completely disappear right back into the cup. I’m definitely having trouble getting my paintings to come out right and I’m wondering if this could be a factor as to which of those two you more want , even though they both look the same coming off the stick. Might anyone shed some light with their experience please?!

I'm not sure how to answer that unfortunately. I've never really paid attention to that. What trouble are you having with your pours that you think it might be a consistency issue? Maybe I can help with that :) In other news... "yeah there was a cornflake girl...." lol

@ArtisticallyRandom

3 жыл бұрын

For me, I like the consistency to be a blop/mound that goes flat before I count to 2 (aprox 1 second) much longer than that and it's too think and prone to crazing. If it doesn't mound ta all it is prone to getting muddy... hope that helps as well...

Wouldn't poking a hole in the cup also help "release" the paint?

Why would you leave the painted canvas sitting on the paper as it settles why not lift it up on cups or pins?
