thank you so much :)
This experiment was awesome. I do prefer the second one over the first one. Both are pretty but I do love the look of the second one the best. Always looking forward to your experiments! Great job! Thank you for sharing.
Great to see you again love these I can’t pick I love both ❤️👍 Australia xx
Thank you for talking to us about the results of different mixes. I love both paintings for entirely different reasons. They both, as you said, have very well defined lines, the colors are so different in each so that makes them totally different. The cloudy one is very pretty, obviously your mix worked but the green one is a very lovely color. 🙏🏼💗🍀
Glad you back...my eyeballs are excited. Thanks.
Hi MelyD, I love the second painting, nice palette and good depth. I actually like how the clouds held a defined shape because they got that lovely shading throughout them. Thank you for the link to deco art! And it's great to have you back creating, makes me smile everytime! 🧡💜🧡
Definitely love the second one more. I do like the green one but the last one for me is the best!
i Love both. If I were to choose, I would pick the first one. I like the colors and the ring pour. Thanks, Elaine
So beautiful☁! Go Mely D!
Yes the second one but both great so nice watching you demo again.
Looks great to be, especially the second one. Very good tutorial.
I'm so excited for your new recipe!!! Thank you for all your experimenting. I especially love the second one 💓💓🍀🍀
I really like green, so I definitely like these! And I'm glad you're baaaack on KZread! 🎉
Second one for me! Happy you are back and love your experiments ! 💙☁️💚
Love the purple! I love everything I've ever seen you do, trying to learn from your experience!
Thank you so much for this experiment. I prefer the second over the first although I like the first a lot. I prefer the defined clouds.
Always appreciate learning your process!
Hmmm... It's hard to choose 🤔 I like both of them 🎉🎉I think it's good to see the difference so you could choose what look you are trying to achieve. Thank you 👍👍
I love that second one!
Love the green!
Thank you for experiencing and sharing your art and science as well. It makes it cheaper for newbies like myself.
Love it so different and love the colors
Second one for me!... It's pretty awesome 💕
Great to see your experiments, always! I love the 2nd painting, especially with resin! Congrats, M! ♥️🤗
Mely, they are both pretty but I like the second one best. Great job!

Hey Mel, loved both the results, esp after varnished. Using the old records is genius!! They look awesome. I'm watching you today bc I want to try my first (proper) attempt at a cloud pour and needed to be reminded of what I'm supposed to be doing lol. Got the satin enamel so let's hope it works out a treat. Love ya vids! Cheers from Australia 🤩
This is gorgeous.. please keep it
I really like the second one you poured, the defined colors and the nice shapes.
The 2nd one is my favorite. So glad u r back and in “experiment” mode. 👍🏻
I think I like the green one!
I love both paintings but I really love the multi colored one with the purple color in it. Your talent is unmatched Meli! I absolutely love watching your videos and the experiments you come up with. Soooo Awesome of you to do and sharing the results with all of us! 🎨✌👏

so sweet thank you G.E.!!
My eyeballs are quite happy !! Second one is definitely more appealing to me, but that green one ain’t to shady either 😘
I like the green one!
I love the purple one
Thanks for sharing your experiments. I love the fingerlings in the second one but the finer lines in the green are gorgeous
Hi Mely, I'm a fellow artist from Lasalle, Quebec. I watch and like your videos.
Absolutely love the second one thanks for teaching me how to make a cloud pour
Welcome back! I like the blue one.
I like the more pastel one. I'm just not a fan of green. And thanks for your experimenting. I learn so much when you do.
Thank you for experimenting!!! I love the second one too!!! But, then again all of your pieces are always amazing!!! 🙂
2nd one definitely 👍. Thank you for doing these experiments! For me, since I'm not producing fluid art commercially, I wouldn't use this but it helps to know what works. The newest version of artist loft soft body white is working similar to the old version that everyone loved without adding any satin enamel or behr base c. When I want a profusion of pearls I add a teaspoon to a tablespoon of decoart satin enamel. Thank you again!
Oh that's a tuf choice, they are both beautiful, but if u had to choose, I would say the green one, but the clouds on the other is quite interesting as well 🙂
I am so happy you are back! I keep experimenting as well, I enjoy being a nerd and finding new recipes. I really like the purple one but it is my favorite color.💜

Well, I am a green and blue person so the first one strikes me best but both are great.
I prefer the blue one. But they are both beautiful 😍
Hey MelyD, thank you for the demonstration. I am grateful you showing this option instead of using floetrol especially since it is not really avail in Canada and it is awfully expensive. Thanks again, I appreciate your tutorial and experiment 🥰
Awesome
Love them both but the second one is probably my favorite 🤩 Great job!
Thanks for sharing 👍👍
If the first one had more paint in each section, I would pick the first bone 😎❣️
glad to see you back! love seeing your experiments. i liked both but i also prefer the purple one
I love them both but the purple one wins for me! That one has more of a cloud effect that appeals to me!♥
Excellent experiment, muchly prefer the second although after resin I could see some of both the prussian blue and indian yelllow
I love both of them but I think I prefer slightly the second one with the purple. I like the normal cloud reaction, not so much the “thingamajigs” that are so big. 😊 But they are both pretty and look awesome resined. Thank you for sharing your experiments! It’s nice to start my day off with more of your eyeball candy. ❣️
I like them both but prefer the second The art you do is exceptionally good MelyD I always learn so much from you 🙏🙏🙏❤️

I definitely prefer #2 and I kind of like the defined effect but not for all cloud pours. I know you are going to play around and perfect this new idea using all Deco Art and maybe it’s just a matter of watering down the ready pour? Congrats on the new gig. Hey! I wanted to tell you about one of their products that I just tried today. I just used their Triple Thick as a top-coat on a little box I painted and it was soooo shiny even with only one coat! It made the colors pop and the metallics sparkle and didn’t even leave one brush stroke after laying it on pretty thick. It doesn’t say that it’s UV resistant so might not work on the paintings tho. You may have already used it before so I apologize if you have. Thanks for doing what you do! The OG of the cloud pour! 💥 ✌️

You're not the first to say this for the tripple thick. I think I have some and it's about time I try it :) thanks Kelly
So hard to choose between them, but that green is beautiful 😍.
I love them both, they are gorgeous! ❤❤
Definitely #2 was better Thanks for pushing yourself for us 🤗🤗
I agree with a lot of the others, the second one looks better, but the first is nice as well. Thank you for doing these experiments for us cloud lovers! There have so many experiments done lately because of the new Artist loft flow paint. Wonder why they couldn't just leave it be as it was. Looking forward to seeing more, I love cloud pours so much! Can one have too many cloud pour paintings on their walls? Also thank you for your efforts in getting Deco art products available to us Canadians!!

They probably changed the recipe without doing their homework. It really sucks cause its not just good for cloud pours. I used to use SO much artist loft white. It was in all my paintings basically accept Golden Fluid. I'm glad you like my experiments and thanks for watching :)
They're both awesome, but I'm inclined to the second one, I like that pallete more. 😄
I'm so happy you are back. I just love watching you work. I like the first one, but the second is my favorite! FYI -- I'm in the states and I stopped using Artist Loft with my satin enamel because it wasn't reacting. I tried Apple Barrel Snow White 1:1 with DASE and I like the results I am getting.

Hi Deborah, yeah Artist Loft changed their recipe unfortunately and ruined everything! LOL but apparently they are going to switch it back. Yeah, I heard apple barrel works well and Liquitex basics too.

Oh, so that’s what happened. Good information. Thank you for mentioning this.
I too liked both, but the second one ,in my opinon, was better.
The second one
Nice experiment. I like the purple a bit better. But it is st Patrick’s day so the green is great too. I’m wondering if more pouring medium would make a difference. I’ve never used their pouring medium so I’m just curious if it reacts differently with more. I guess that’s another experiment eh??
I definitely prefer the second one as well, the one with the purple in it. But I have to say I do not have the success with cloud pours that you do. I have tried every recipe possible, different paints, different ratios, but my clouds never look good like yours. Lol. Oh well, I’ll just keep experimenting. Great video! Thanks for sharing!

Less is more my friend. Go back to basics, sometimes its really the best way :) thicker paint too! That's my biggest issue. I make my paints so thin sometimes I ruin everything.
Hey MelyD, Your cloud mix is legendary here on YT. It’s copied a lot, most give you mad props. My fav is the purple one because I love the cloud effects! ☁️ Thanks for showing your experiments & Congrats again on the DecoArt affiliation! 😉👍

Thanks for telling me Stephanie, so good to read. I'm outta the loop most often and have no clue what people are saying lol and yes DecoArt realized that their biggest selling product is the satin enamels and it's not used to paint cabinets :) I'm happy to be collaborating with them, they have so many cool products.
Wow. Really liked your result and cloud technique! I especially bought the satin enamel for this, but I don't know what to mix it with. I only have Amsterdam white, or house paint, will one of them do okay?
Really hard to choose. Both have artistic merits. Love both color combos. I'd say a tie😊💕👍
I think that I preferred the second one, however, for experimental purposes I would like to see the first mix used with all ready pour paints making only the cloud mix the variable.

I don't understand your question Paulette
Bonjour et merci de vos conseils et surtout de vos précisions pour le enable ceramic qui va permettre les grosses cellules. Pour les autres couleurs faut-il le préparer avec du silicone -comme auparavant ?? Doit-on chauffer la toile pour que les cellules ressortent ??? Merci pour vos conseils
So happy you're back!I have a question, if you want to pour on vynel, I have a lot. How do you deal with the lower area of the LP, which is a different height? Its the area that has the label and is a bit lower. It looks like the hole revealed itself or do you need to cover the hole? I would love to make some clocks and I have too many questions,sorry but I need some advice. Love ❤️ the second one but I like the first also and again so happy to see you and your videos! Your nails look beautiful 😍

The lower part of the vinyl that you're talking about barely shows afterwards. Personally I like it! I wish I could see it more cause you see it's paint on a vinyl. The resin levels itself. Basically if you're lucky you see a little ring. I cover the hole with painter's tape and remove it when I'm done my pour cause I want the hole. Hope this helps and omg yes! I love my nails too 😁
Beautiful MelyD, my favourite is the blue and purple one. I actually poured on cds 💿 today and shot a video, yet robe edited. Is the discount code available to Australia? 🥰🇦🇺
❤️❤️❤️
You don’t prep the record or glass if you pour on them? I haven’t started this journey yet, but I will soon though I don’t really have a good setup in my house. So we’ll have to see. I was curious about how your paint holds up on surfaces. I’m very interested to watch more of your videos.
Congratulations on the affiliation Melissa 🥰 loved these pieces, where do you get your vinyl from, prices for vinyl over here have gone through the roof 😞 Thanks for taking the time to create this video and for caressing my eyeballs once again 🥰💜🖤🤍
Do you only use Deco white. Do other colors work?❤
Pretty .. did you torch? Would that bring up more cloud effects?

I don't torch acrylic paint, it would create dots not clouds ;)
I really really like the 1st painting. Both are beautiful, but the 1st one looked like a hens/chick plant
The second one.
2nd one is special 💙🇺🇦💛
I’m a purple girl all the way
I like the Marilyn shirt….my name!
Definitely the second.. It's definitely a different type of cloud but I quite like it and it didn't take over the entire painting... Just my opinion... but you know what those are like?🤣🤣
What is the cloud mix recipe you were using before this experiment?
