You never cease to amaze me :)

Beautiful 🙏🙏 I was saying WOW at each step

I totally agree abut the negative space. Lovely as always!!!! Kudos Mel

It did come together! I really love the composition...and loved watching the process.

That painting was super creative, and beautiful! I appreciated your comments on cracking! I just had one do that, and my husband says it gives it character, and additional texture. Thanks for sharing!

Hello MellyD. I live in Georgia, US. I love your art and creativity. Thanks for sharing. Namaste

Woman, you have mad skills.

The cracks add to the character of the painting which happens to be awesome and so MelyD. Love your painting videos. You are a true artist's artist!

This is fantastic! The best artwork. I love your art.😊👍🌈

It’s soooo nice love it ❤️😇❤️💕

I've been following you since the beginning, what a ride! Love how far you've come. I would love to see you do a tree ring pour but instead of spinning it around and around, just tilt like the rings aren't there. Like stretching, returning to middle, stretching in opposite direction, return to middle again. I think you would rock it like the rockstar you are!!! Can't wait to see it!

Yes I love the cracking.. we just can’t be concerned with what the world think is perfect! I love when you use your hands to smooth the base. It’s a texture feeling smoothness like water running over a plate in the sink.

Yes!!! I love it too and I should do it more often. Especially the house paint that's just mixed with water. It's so relaxing and fun to play around in.

LOVE you style! Great negative space.

Beautiful

You continue to amaze me💕

I am so grateful for your videos. I have learned so much from you and this helped me with my own cloud pouring. i struggle with composition with cloud pours and this has given me some great direction. Thank you.

Whauw, just love it!

This is so cool. I love the negative space. Brilliant as always Darling❤

Wow, Melly, that is just so gorgeous! Got to be one of my favourites of all times! I find it difficult to work with yellow (always get lost...), which is my favourite colour, so adding it at the end as a negative space us such a great idea!!

I have always said crazing is no more than an unexpected texture! While I don't intentionally try to get crazing, I don't care if it happens. I think it just adds interest!

I never mind a little cracking .. it dies give texture and I also try to.find different ways to make it look nice with the rest of the painting depending on where the cracks are... I sometimes just fill them in with acrylic paint markers especially silver if I can get away with it lol. But it rarely happens so i don't really worry about it when it does. Congrats on a great pour as usual & thanks for sharing 😉😉😉😉😉

Very cool😎

Love seeing you work and getting new ideas!!!

Love!!!

I always enjoy your sense of adventure with paint. The clouds are so fluffy and delicate. The mix of red (more dark orange), orange, yellow are always nice to me. Bummer on the cracking but it happens. Hugs MelyD.

Sure you can put it in the world is very pretty love it

How on earth do you think of so many cool ideas ?. Beautiful!

Excellent as always. Love how the orange piece looks like it is higher because of the shadow.

Love this pce and your attitude re cracks 👍✌ I live in TO and just started pouring this past Dec. Prob 5/10 paintings crack - didnt know if it was temp or dryness or paint consistency, or quality etc. Pers dont like floetrol and now use small amt of glue mixed w water or just water to thin paints. It's a learning process for sure. I love using house paints too. Used up tester pots I had and buy Behr satin enamel white. Even use left over cans i've had and pcs turn out amazing. I'm enjoying learning about ea type of paint's properties. Love this pce and the textures of diff applications. Thanks for sharing your creations and knowledge 👍

Your so talented this is beautiful!

@@MelyDartist Another good one is , Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. When I'd finish a painting that I was thinking. Man , what am I doing. Not exactly what I was going for. My friend Mike & his wife , would say that. And it's true. That & the Bob Ross saying are two that I , always remember. Seeing some of your work & listening to you. Your amazing!! 🙂

I loved this💛😊 I also did a painting before that dride way to quick and cracked.. I put the fan on (yes in winter lol) I also did one around February when everything's frozen over and I put the fan on and covered it with a big tv box.

Just wonderful! Everyone seems to pop bubbles with a torch but you don't seem to have that problem.

I read that comment so often. I'm thinking it might be because I use more paint and a little pouring medium as opposed to a lot that I see using less paint and a ton of Floetrol. I might be wrong though because Mixed media girl doesn't torch and she uses Floetrol... to be honest, I find it weird that someone would torch acrylic paint.

Personally, I think you should get a humidifier and you can control the cracking better. They are cheap! Great job as usual. Thanks for sharing.

Lol! Oh my Goddess Meli!! I turned on your video, I went back to the stove to turn my eggs, looked back at your video and you had just poured yellow on the white! Egg! Lol! Must be a good luck day! My ex husband left a bunch of house paint here.. in neutral tones. My girlfriend paints murals with house paint.. The house paint cracked in my paintings. It's just too thick. You are always a breathe of fresh air!

I read this and looked back at the beginning of the video... it totally looks like an egg 😅 and yeah.. I'm not surprised about the house paint cracking. I used some a while ago and I can't seem to remember how I worked with it. Maybe just pouring medium... there has to be something to add to it to help it not crack with these temps

@@MelyDartist I watered mine down A LOT!! Like to the normal consistency you would use with tube paint. Also remember, house is supposed to dry fast.. it's meant to dry fast. I remember my husband painting the living room and by the time he was painting the bedroom the living room was dry. I live is California, in San Francisco bay area , and right now it's so cold, rainy and wet.. but.. the room I'm using for my art is colder than in the summer months.. my paintings dry evenly in this room weather it's cold or warm...using art paint. The few times I used house paint, I watered it down so that it moved on the canvas nicely. It still cracked and got thick on it's own. Remember.. you are using way more than just a half ounce. Try again but try on small sample canvas.. Have a nice evening!

Çok hoş ve güzel, beğendim.. 🙋🏻‍♂️🙋🏻‍♂️🙋🏻‍♂️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Love your painting and not minding the cracks at all. I’m wondering if you used GAC800 in the house paint would it prevent cracks? I think you’re a fabulous artist and thank you for your generosity in sharing your technique and vision.

So cool! I really like all the different effects and keeping part of the cells in the yellow was slick! Did the white bring out the purple in the brown or did you use a mixed dark color? Anyways, very awesome! The cloud is gorgeous! 👏🏼

Beautiful, sometimes really different

I started initially pouring with white house paint as a base coat and it very consistently cracked even using floetrol as an extender. Have also tried several different brands so if anyone figures out a formula I’d bow down in gratitude if you shared it...!!!

@MelyDartist

The best as a base for me is the Artist Loft flow acrylic with a little pouring medium and water. It's not what I used in this video but it's what I usually use and it perfect. Not expensive at all and easy to prep. Can also be used for cells if that's your thing.

Love the different textures in this painting. Did you mix anything with the house paint?

@MelyDartist

4 жыл бұрын

Only a bit of water but I'm thinking maybe if I add GAC800 or some pouring medium it could help with the cracking. Not sure though since those products were not created for wall paint... Maybe it's about time I try out Floetrol and add it to the wall paint so it doesn't dry so fast... hmmm

my question was because I had been watching some of your videos using blow dryer. a few days later I thought of the question because I thought they were beautiful.
