I discovered to use the black enamel paint by it self with little water and glue all with copper 🤗❤😍🤩💝pour last week. I used Payne grey mixed with phalo blue and cerulean and mix my orange with flouresent yellow and cadmium red and light purple mix of system 3 flouresent pink and Arteza sky blue. So vibrant 🤗 and the black enamel stood out from the rest of the paints. You are a genius!!!!! 🤗😍❤💝
Can’t help myself, watching again. You have such a gift of art! Please continue to share with us❣️😊
Stunning. Dear. 💕
😍😍😍 Papa Sancho LOOOOOOVES you!!!!
Stunning!
You are absolutely a master of your craft - I ADORE this!!! The colors are incredible and nobody can do a cloud pour like you can!! Thank you for sharing your work with us!!!! ~ Jan Trent
Absolutely amazingly ❤️😇❤️🤐
Wow!! Gorgeous!
Greetings and salutations. It is so very good to hear from you! Simple Is Best #11! Thank you! I am new. I am learning. I had a jar, each, of the white and black Satin Enamel. Ran out of the white and had to use the black. That is really cool product. I even went out and bought black wall paint! Have a made painting worthy of sharing? Not yet? The husband disagrees, but he loves me!!! As I learn, I work to control my painting and recreated the likeness of a pour. I have a few in mind that I want to be specific to me! I am still pouring on panels, thank you! As you said, you have poured hundreds of times...I completely understand!!! I began learning from your puddle pours & Liquitex. Then you took a break, so I ventured out and found a few artists whose work I enjoy learning from. I adore this wonderful community. Very best to you and yours. Thank you!!!! Blessings and Re Jouir -Darlene
Beautiful!
Less is always more. I love how this cloud came out.
so happy to see MelyD back on set! This is such a cool technique. In the states the Decoart black satin enamel is the same price as the white, about $9.00USD so I will try this! I'm also in love with the S.E color navy blue. It may create the same effect.

Yes I'm wondering about all the SE colors if they will react the same way. That would be great !! I also want to try this with the deco art extreme sheen in black (Obsidian) is the name . Those paints give amazing cell reactions also . !!! Just placed an order for every color the other day.... all the colors in the extreme are amazing !! 😉😉😉😉😉😉
It's beautiful.
It was just astonishing to watch all that black go away and then pop back up on the canvas. You make magic (and beautiful) paintings!
Great job!!
👋 MelyD. Simple is best. No. 11 the best so far. Beautiful piece. Karen NZ

Awesome!!
Everyone loves the MelyD cloud effect and some are successful, but many fail. Some just don’t want to use your tested formula. I do. I love it. This is stunning.
Omg that is gorgeous that black Omg 😱 just beautiful ❤️❤️
What a gorgeous pour great job !!!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️Lisa
Dear Mely, I know this comment is coming in late, however even though the notification was pushed, I still never got your upload. You are about the only one who gets real cells/movement, not artificial ones using silicon. Plus you wait to see what happens with the painting over time, so many do not. All your paintings are natural, how the paint reacts, but that has to do with you and how you applied each element. I look forward to seeing another one of yours, because yours are far more fascinating than many of the others. Date in Australia is December 13th 2019. Merry Christmas if you happen to see this, and a wonderful and prosperous new year. Big hugs
beautiful work!
Really Really cool Mely D. Gotta get some! 😀
As usual, you rock! 💜💜💜👍👍👍😘😘😘
Love your colours 😍
Cloud is beautiful. ---Dave...
So glad you're back......love love love your work 💕💕
It's gorgeous I love this one!🤗😍💖❤😍
Beautiful!! Love the technique! Congratulations ⭐️⭐️⭐️💕
MelyD. -I hope you will post plenty of notice if/when you do a live auction. There are only 4 artists in the world I would want to own, and you are one of them!! And you do an awesome job on your videos-frankly I love getting to watch you as you do your thing. For one thing, we get to see your face, so I really feel like I know you. Secondly, your explanations are always clear and simple to understand. And thirdly (is that a word?) your genuine enthusiasm is as infectious as your art is inspiring! I am so glad you are back in the saddle-when you are missing, I worry!! You have a lot of fans watching!

Gorgeous... I think the humidity Also barometric pressure has something to do with the paint setting up. We had a large storm that went through and I was doing a painting. The paint was so flat . Same paint I always use (liquitex basics ). But it just flattened out and had no dimensional look Not sure if that was the cause or not but during that storm period I scrapped the canvas three times and mixed new paint for each painting and it just would not keep its shape... it just flattened out... maybe that has something to do with the red painting. It’s still beautiful.. the colors are vibrant.and the black drawers your attention to the overall painting... it says WOW!!! Look at me.. love it love it love it...,
I discovered this effect a few weeks ago by accident. I had used the black satin enamel from Behr as an under coat to float my ring pour. The bubbles popped all over the piece and it took over. I was shocked how reactive it was and I recently used the matte Behr Maquis paint on the corners of a project and the same bubbling happened! It’s cool if you want the effect but, since I didn’t, iI had to start over. I used the Black satin enamel as a cloud pour instead of the white and the results were amazing! Thanks for your videos, they are a big help in my learning process!
love your "simple is best" vids. great job! it's like you weren't even away 💙💙
Celestial!
MelyD love how you make it so simple.

Yea this is phenomenal. Holy cow. So beautiful. On a side note I'm leaving a message for every artist that inspired me years ago and gave me the courage to show people my work. You were a major major influence on me and I just wanted to say thank you. It took alot of convincing but I did start a channel and just reached 20k . I'm in shock but again I could not have done that if not for artists like you. You rock girlfriend❤🤗😘
That's a great idea basically doing a sweep at the edges. It looks amazing!
Love YOUR cloud pours...they never disappoint!!!
Yet another great painting. You make it look so easy!
Fabulous! So glad you're back at it!
