Thanks Johanne! I was hoping that I was making sense...🤣❤️🙏😀

@@PiecesofTaraArtistry if I understood it, ANYONE can lol

Thank you so much Kathy! It is crazy the difference in these two products in this one instance. I have found that typically they can be used interchangeably.❤️🙏😀

Lol! Yea I hear you! Little changes can make a huge difference in results. 😆 Hope you are successful! ❤️☺️🙏🏻

Your welcome Hana! Hope this is a good follow up for the class!❤️

Thanks so much Judy!❤️🙏😀

Thanks so much Joan! It was really great to meet you. Glad this was a good reminder! ❤️☺️🙏🏻

@@Gennytrot Your welcome Genny! Yes you can use it with good quality paints. When you do it as a pour over color you want to make sure the density of the paint is heavy. That’s why white or anything g with titanium works, also why lamp black or Payne’s grey works. They are all heavier…density wise than other paints. ☺️🙏🏻❤️

Hello! To answer your first question - no need to add the gloss. Just use the GAC 800. It works just fine on its own. 2. With water and paint it honestly isn’t cheaper to use just water because you have to use so much. Even adding extender like water. You are better off adding floetrol and water to your mix. Kinella Ciraco has good mix for her Dutch pour paints that is just floetrol and water. I use my pouring medium of GAC800 and floetrol mixed 50/50. That being said you can use about 40-50% water with highly pigmented paints like Amsterdam. I would not use just water with craft paints like DecoArt and equivalent. There’s not enough binder in those paints so the pigments will break up if you add too much water. I I hope this helps! ☺️🙏🏻❤️

Yup! That works just fine!

Its Zoë

Hi Zoë! I got my straw from paintpourstore.com. 🙏🏻☺️❤️

❤️

Yes you can! You just can't used Golden Color Pouring Medium Gloss in both.🙏❤️😊

I had heard the same thing and it is not true. If you open the bottles and even look at it side by side you see that the golden color pouring medium has a much more distinct gloss medium…which is totally fine. They are not and do not need to be the same. That being said…in this technique the gloss on gloss doesn’t work. One one gloss can happen in this equation. I’m not exactly sure if the science but if you check out Gina Deluca’s channel she has lots to say about the hydrophobic effect from gloss vs matte mediums. 🙏🏻☺️❤️

@@PiecesofTaraArtistrythanks for the response! I’ll have to give the color pouring medium a try now that I know it’s different. I actually made a batch of your colored Pearl base a couple of days ago and I used a mix of GAC 800 and Liquitex PM in place of the Golden Color Pouring Medium that I didn’t have. I’m going to try it today so hopefully it still works.

Yes you can!

Hi Tobey! Yes you can use gac 800 in both you just can’t use golden Color pouring medium in both! Crazy but true! 🙏🏻❤️☺️

Thanks

@TobeyFranco Your welcome! ☺️

Lol! Yea that’s a little different. 🤣 Thanks so much Karen!

Hello! This is different than a shelee bloom. In that technique it is called a pillow paint (which is very thick)... In this technique it is a base coat that is underneath the rest of your colors and it is very thin. It helps the paint on top move smoothly and it allow the reaction from the satin enamel to pop up through the other colors to get these pearly looking cells. Hope that helps!

I believe the preferred recipe is for this technique is in the description box. ❤️

Hi Laurie! So…I’m not sure where the confusion is. I feel like I am very specific in my instructions. I show you the wrong because in previous videos I share the wrong recipe and people were having trouble with it so for demonstration purposes I show you the wrong way to do it so that you understand the results of doing it incorrectly. If you had seen those videos and tried the recipe you would have see that was the case. As far as the pour over colors…I’m not sure where the confusion is on this either. This is an advanced technique and there are many components that make it successful. The two very specific components are 1. The Satin Enamel Basecoat recipe & 2. The Pour Over Colors (pour over color recipe without satin enamel). These are the basics of this technique. Without these you will not have successful pearl pours. I totally understand this is a harder technique to get. If you would like one on one instruction I do offer zoom classes as well as I will be teaching this technique at FAE in Asheville, NC May 24, 2024. You can check out www.fluidartexperience.com for details! Hope this helps! ☺️

Hi Brenda! I say parts because you can add any amounts you want. Some people like to measure up large batches. Some like to measure small. Some are in the metric system some are in the imperial system. When you work in parts it is easier to convert to whichever way you like to measure best. Here’s an example: 3 parts floetrol = 3 oz, or 3 cups, or 3 teaspoons 2 parts paint = 2 oz, or 2 cups, or 2 teaspoons You could use cups, ounces, teaspoons, milliliters to make that recipe into any amount you like. Parts is just a more general way to measure which allows you to decide how much you want to make. The key is keeping consistent with your measurements. For example only use ounces or only use cups or only use teaspoons and use the precise parts that are in the recipe. I hope this helps!

@@PiecesofTaraArtistry thank you for taking the time to answer my questions.

You’re welcome Brenda!

@PiecesofTaraArtistry I have another question. Right after you've finished a painting ,where and how do you store them to dry without it getting stuck to the surface ?
