if you paint the canvas with a basecoat of white the paint will be more smooth and you wont see speckles in it but I LOVE this technique It's always a fun video with E&K lol

@BlueSnowLeopard1

you should try this with UV resin. i think that would be so interesting!

One thing that I think would improve your paint distribution is to make sure to put your paint dots onto the tape border, rather than the canvas directly. That way it's already moving when it touches your canvas, and you don't get that blobby effect at the start. Except of course when you're doing it intentionally, like the cat ears and the fish :P

Fun fact: koi fish always swim in groups of 4! Scientists label them A,B,C, and D for tracking. When attacked by a predator, A, B, and C clump together and swim away as a group; which leaves the predator with the D koi.

Maybe! But, we did some at home without a base coat and our cats turned out great. I think it might just be a low effort-high reward technique.

Ok. the fancy squeegee is actually doing a much better job of being a squeegee. It is meant to remove as much of the fluid as possible. squeegees are meant to clean glass. the spackle tools are meant spread putty so they do a much better job of spreading the paint.

I'm curious if preparing the canvas with a layer of gesso paint would improve the colors and how they spread versus how they soak in the paper

Yes... was coming here to say this! Also, the card stock worked better because of the smoother surface. Drag across texture is your enemy... Unless you are trying for that type of textured look... but it will change the drag coefficient, leaving bare spots AND pockets of paint. 😊

It took me about a minute into this video to realize I had already seen all this 😂

The koi painting was meant to be a surprise painting, and they are done kinda unique. You put the paint down in a thinner layer. It's meant to stain the paper not really paint it. Then you put of extra paint on top to do the squeegee part. Jazza did a video trying to figure it out and it looked really tricky.

If I remember correctly I’m pretty sure Jazza did a whole video on squeegee painting which was a fascinating video to learn from if you guys ever wanted to do this again in your free time!

I think you are forgetting a lesson you were given by Bob Ross. If you put a wet layer of pure white on the paper, the colors will flow easier. ;) Especially given your canvas has a texture.

This reminds me of those rainbow painters from the 90s that you would pick up all the colors and put them down on the paper.

another difference is definitely in the color choices. the reference ones have more cohesive palettes picked out than just whichever primary color bottles

The 'professional' squeegee everyone uses is sold at dollar tree. We buy them at my work to clean off our sinks and dishwashers. The blue squeegee part is a really crappy rubber/sillicone type material that breaks in a few days of using it but it does allow for a lot more forgiveness in paint spreading videos. As opposed to real expensive ones that are meant for getting all the water off of glass in one quick motion.

The dollar store has squeegees with a plastic handle but the blade is silicone.

The purple cat reminds me of Bob from animal crossing, the spots make it!

Possibly the others would work better if the canvas/paper was prepped with a layer of white paint. It would allow the paint to stick better and it would roll longer maybe?

That image on black cardstock reminded me of something NASA would publish!

The koi look like one of those reverse coloring book things

In the koi example video, the online artist had a chunk strategicly taken out of their squeegee that allowed them to follow the shape of the koi and not have all the colors spread out so wide.

They tried pottery once last year - “Cheap vs Expensive: Trying pottery wheels for the first time”

6:38 They probably film it 10 times and only show the best one.

I wonder how it would work with a cheap regular acrylic? I feel like the flow medium in the acrylic pour paint doesn’t lend itself to mark making like this? But I’m also not very well versed in flow acrylic 🤷‍♀️

How does everything they make turn out so derpy? It is adorable though.

You have ALL the POSCA PENS!!! 🙀 I do realize, however that showing us your Poscas was not the ENTIRE point of this great video. My favorite part was testing because of all the info about the paints, papers, & techniques (& squeegees). I love the art you created. I have no artistic skills whatsoever, but after watching I feel like I might have enough info to create something not hideous....? I still can't believe YOU HAVE ALL THE POSCA PENS!!! 🙀🙀 😁❤️

i love how evan took the expensive paint from katelyn like "no no honey, it's a pull-off lid not twisty..." and not even 2 minutes later he's struggling to pour from the cheap paint before realizing it's not even opened haha, such a typical adhd experience haha 😂

exactly! it's doing exactly what it's meant to do haha

Thin cheap paint and a flat edge and drag against the canvas is how they all do it. I love that you guys went with other methods to see what other kinds of looks you can go for.

Random thought, but I would try regular acrylic paint instead of the fluid-art one... technically, the paint does not need to "flow" her, because it gets dragged... and maybe more paint would stick to the surface when it is thicker? And the lines would maybe stay more "in shape"... Just a guess tho...

Love you guys

I been years since I watched y’all (3 yrs) but I am binge watching with my now fiancée. AND HE WILL LOVE IT NO MATTER WHAT lol😅

Your cat art was soooo cute. I must try now

With the koi fish, I bet you are supposed to let the orange and black sit a bit before pulling so that the paper absorbs the color

18:08 Ngl, these kinds of projects are interesting to watch (i.e. squeegee art, acrylic pours, etc), but I always hate how much paint gets wasted.

I'd love to see them try this again after a bit more research. I'd definitely recommend watching Jazza's squeegee art videos since he seems to have nailed the technique.

Just woke up to this and that's the best way honest. ❤

Those squeegee are usually modified by the artist to fit there needs and reproduce a consistent style.

The metal squiggly is specific for showers, the rubber makes it stronger, that is why the paint almost disappears. If you see on the other videos, they are using a cheap plastic one.

BEST WAY TO WAKE UP YAY

Yes, that’s a lesson I learned myself some weeks ago as well. I made my own gelli-printing plates and tried gelli-printing for the first time … well, times - painful times until I got a result which was 🤔 erm, wasn’t bad 😅 Thanks for trying and showing this kind of art and that it’s not always as easy as it looks 👍

As an artist i can tell you that having pigmented paint AND a good paper are the most important things. I would also like to point out, that not everything that is expensive is good and not everything good is expensive.

“baby, i’ll give you the whoooole bin of Posca pens”

I mean… it makes sense the fancy squeegee thins out the paint more because the point of a good squeegee is to remove the liquid on whatever it’s being used on not leave a bunch of liquid.

I do this with kids. I use Dollar Tree squeegees and cheap acrylic (cuz I’m a teacher).

The cats were adorbs 🥰

I love this kind of art, it's so weird, but so beautiful.

Hi. I started watching this video when it said no views, the video now has 335

Evan: -maybe you ruined the entire test. … that.. that’s an oxymoron. That’s the whole point of tests, to TEST out processes. Silly boyy

as someone who has used squeegees professionally for their intended purpose, it makes sense that a fancier one might absorb some amount of liquid while the cheaper one would be more likely to just push the liquid around

Love watching you two!❤

love when you guys do art related videos

The music at 8:44 takes me back to the Vehicle Assembly Building in Kerbal Space Program.

I do this all the time on canvas, it's a lot of fun. Your over thinking it. Add lines of paint and dots around and I use the cheapest squeegee the one without the handle. The RUBBER squeegee is no bueno!

Awesome wallet and KeyCase 🙌
