A selfless broadminded teacher. Thank you

One of the best tutorials I've seen for mixing paint - and I've seen quite a few over the last couple of years! Very helpful and informative and explained in a manner that is simple and easy. Only thing is it's a little bit hard to see your measuring clearly with the background being white but with your explanations it didn't matter too much. Thank you Becca 😊😊

Strainer on the bottle opening. Brilliant,only a few weeks in the game and never considered that. Thanks!

Super Tutorial, das Beste! Vielen lieben Dank Becca!🧡

This is all me! I'm here for the technical stuff. I feel it's so important and no one ever goes over it. Ever. I own a spa and constantly find that everyone that has been in any field for a long time was never taught the why of everything. It's so important. Ty

You answered my questions about water and paints. I may try again this weekend. Thank you so much, Di

Thank you so much!!!!! This was really helpful! I love the way you compare the paint consistency- I’m going to start doing that!

Fantastic tutorial! Love the test!

One year ago! My Oh My! Well, Becca, my wife, and I are watching, learning and loving every minute of your instruction, THANK you sooo much! - You are an excellent artist and teacher! ~

Great ideas! Very nice to hear full tutorials. Thank you.

Merci Becca C'est tout à fait la précision que j'attendais Bravo

Dear Becca, thank you so much for such a great education!

Very helpful. Learned something new! Thanks!

Thank you so much for the clear explanation of how to start mixing paints for these projects. I'm just starting, and this has been so helpful.

Great recipe Becca! I’m the same way, I hate measuring lol. I’ve been doing it for about 18 months now and it’s all by feel and good to know I’m doing it very similar to you and getting the same consistency 🎨. Thanks for sharing!

So detailed and helpful, especially the clever trick of testing the runs on paper. Thank you!

This is a great video, the close up consistency is very much appreciated. Thank you. 🙂

You answered all my questions about how to mix paint for Dutch pour. Thank you. ❤❤

Hi Becca, I’ve watched this video three times already. Thank you for this PARTICULAR instruction. It is very very helpful.

My first time to watch you Becca and I really like that you take time to ensure we follow what you are doing. So thank you. I will watch you more often. Especially thank you for the stocking strainer. That really helps a lot.

Thank you, Becca. Your instructions are so understandable. I don’t like to measure, either. You’re a rock star!

Thank-you Becca. I am happy to say I found your channel. Your tip re paint flow consistency is very helpful and appreciated. Your at ease, natural approach reminds me of generous Olga Soby.

This is the best tutorial I've ever seen. You are so straight forward and explain it so well. Thank you!

Thank you, ma’am! That was the easiest description of how to measure your paint fluidity anywhere. Thank you so much.

I loved when you said that you like to learn the hard way, lol!!! I didn't know there was any other way, lol!!! Great video! I have learned a lot! Thank you ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

Excellent video. I just started doing acrylic pouring and your video has been the most helpful that I’ve seen. Thank you!

Fabulous tutorial. Your explanations are very clear. I’m a newbie, so I really appreciate it. Thank you.

Great teaching/showing style & yes, was very helpful! Thanks!

Thank you so much for showing how to use floetrol. This video is very useful. ❤

Thank you for the demonstration. You're awesome with instructions.

Glad I found your podcast. It is the best.

Love the No trace but No divet description of consistency ❤❤ I have done only a few Dutch Pours & some were good, some not so much 😢 but learning correct consistency. Thank you Becca !!

It was so helpful dear . Thank you very much .

I learn a lot today . Thank you.

Helpful video Becca, thank you! I haven't been getting my paint consistencies perfect (also an intuitive mixer...) - this should help a lot 😊

I just found your channel and am i ever glad i have been collecting supplies for at least six months and now i feel like i am ready to go thank you Becca for the easy to follow directions ❤❤

Brilliant! To test to see how the paint runs on the card. I never would have thought to do that.

That tip at the end where you compare both fluids side by side is a great tip! Thank you.

Thank you for demonstrating so well!

Thank You so much! This helps to to understand how to & approximately how much! I have have been searching for this a long time, I do prefer the ounces measurements! ❤

Thank you, Becca. Great tutorial.

I am new to paintpouring art and this is very easy to understand, Thank you.

Thank you so much. This will really help me. I have had a little trouble with this.🤩

this was very helpful. thanks

Excellent information; thank you. Very helpful.

Great informative tutorial ❤. Thank you for sharing 👍

Great paint mix video. Mixing seems to be the hardest part. It's like house painting..the prep is key to having a pleasant experience and the best end result.

Great info, and I love the way you demonstrated everything! I'm new, and I need all the help I can get!

Very interesting. Thanks.

Thanks for sharing your ratios. Was blown away by your split base coat (blue and white) Dutch pour.

First time seeing your work on another video and then I came here. Oh yes the paint on paper is the only one I’ve ever seen done, what a great tip. I just subscribed👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Fantastic tutorial. Thank you.

Thank you! So helpful 😊

Thank you for sharing Becca😉

Well done!!

Becca I am a beginner and just found you! I loved your video and you honesty. I subscribed! ❤❤

Great information!! Thank you for sharing. I just found your channel and I am looking forward to watching more videos. Be well 😊

LOVE the idea of using the toe of a nylon to strain the Floetrol! Thanks so much for sharing this as well as your mixing process.

Thank you for this. Very helpful.

Thank you ! Super info !

Thank you Becca!

New sub!!! Thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️!!! I have gone through so many Dutch pouring artists not understanding, how much floetrol and paint ti use for this technique!!! I have tried and failed a few times and am rather bored with flip cups. I gave a learning and cognitive issue, pretty badly and get frustrated when people don't fully explain how much to use!!! Thank you!!!

I've been doing the same thing with the stockings to strain it as I use it. It's so easy and efficient. I do the same thing on paints, too, if I happen to catch on to the bottle of paint containing "things" of various sorts within it. One time I had Artist Loft bottles of white that had little things in the paint. It took me a while to figure out where it was coming from as I kept getting these tiny little blobs all through my dried paintings. It was so annoying. Eventually I figured out it was those bottles of white it was coming from, and I put the panty hose strainer on them. It works like a charm! Great minds figure out the same sorts of things. 😉 Yes, definitely - get the floetrol in, then the paint, mix that up, and THEN start mixing in bits of water, a little at a time so you don't over do it accidentally. Fixing that is not as easy as just doing it gradually and stopping when it is correct in consitency. I've noticed that works best for me as well, and, like you, LOL, I did not start out having that realization. I sure did NOT start out putting in the products in that order back in the beginning! LOL 🤣 But doing it other ways was a fabulous teacher. Great video! 🥰

I just found you..and subscribed…thank you for your help

Thank you so much!

This is a great demonstration for mixing paints. I love that you did the super up-close view. Great job in getting those shots in! I have noticed when I let my mixed paints sit on the shelf for a few days or longer they tend to thicken a little. I usually do a new test before I just jump in and use the paints on an actual canvas from pre-mixed paints I had ready and adjust if needed. Maybe your experience is different? Love the video.

Great video! Should have watched this first!!!

Another awesome tutorial & my thanks + subscribed.😊

Esti foarte frumoasa!❤Un chip blând,o voce caldă și un suflet bun,care împărtășește cu noi talentul ei ❤🤗🥰

Gosh that was really helpful - thx!

Brilliant! Thank..

Thank u so much love ur videos xxneeded to see the proper amound of paint i can only get pouring medium here in lreland xx

Отново много, много ценен урок! Пълна информация, представена кратко и понятно!!! Голям късмет, че "случайно " днес попаднах на Вашите уроци! Не съм опитвала Холандск наливане, нямах желание. Общо съм гледала над 800 видео уроци, но Вашите уроци ме вдъхновиха да усвоя тази техника! Освен това за моя радост в Турция има Liquitex бои, а от България си купих Owatrol. Надявам се да проработи. Огромни благодарности! Следя Ви!

Good lesson and demonstration. I did mu first dutch pour today (if I can call it that) but my paint was much thicker. I'll know what to do different tomorrow.

❤ so helpful ❤

I really enjoyed that, I have been messing.

Спасибо большое за советы!!! )))😍

Your last test shows the viscosity. The gold is highly pigmented and the magenta is thicker, really viscous and a lower pigment. a very nice demo.

Thank you Becca. You are amazing. I can't wait to try your method. Can you explain how to make the base colors and the consistencies as well? thanks

Just stumbled on your channel and I’m so glad I did. I have a Cricut cutting machine and I switch between projects so sometimes I forget how to do things such as mix the paints. I remember watching Olga and other Dutch pour artists and they all seemed to have a different approach to mixing the paints. You, however, have taken away my confusion. Thanks for the simple instructions. I’m currently working on my craft room organizing and now I can’t wait to get done so I can start doing the painting again. The only thing I noticed was that sometimes, when you were showing the paints, the camera didn’t pick it up. It was maybe too high. I am definitely subscribing and will be watching.

Thank you for saying where to get Floetrol. I have been looking in wrong places. Very helpful video..

Hi Becca! I actually just sent you a message on Facebook. I've been doing fluid art for about 3 years and have tried and tried to get this technique down. Your video is the closest and most consistent that I've came! Thank you SO SO MUCH! I'm going to spread the word and let people know that this is the video to watch. It helped me so much and I am so thankful. I think that nobody else gets as close as you got to the camera with the cups so that we could really see in there and see the consistency for ourselves. Or at least that's how I feel! I do you have one question now though. I feel like my edges are too hard. They need to be more wispy, if that makes sense. Does that mean that my consistency still is not fluid enough? Will send pictures of what I'm talking about in the Facebook message. Much love from Myrtle Beach South carolina!

Thank you 🙏

Hi Im à newbie Floetrol 14.99 Wow ! I bought m'y first gallon 46.99 plus 15%tax that is what We pay here in Québec CAD, lol... completely nuts 😂 Thank you for sharing your expertise ! 🙏

I don't mean to correct you, but "Viscosity" refers to the thickness of the paint. I think the word you are looking for is that Golden paints are highly pigmented. Meaning they have a lot of the actual color pigment added to the binders. You will find Golden is the most highly pigmented and Winsor Newton and Amsterdam and just below Golden in quantity and quality of pigments. Liquitex Proffessional is right up there with them as well. The Liquitex basics are more student grade. Meaning they lose some of their color when thined so you have to be careful to not over thin them. With the viscosity the best way to explain them is heavy body paints, soft body paints, liquid body paints and the least viscous is the Alcohol Inks. If something is said to be very viscous it is very thick like the hard body paints. I'm sorry to explain all that to you on an open forum. Please forgive me. But I would hate to see you go on and never learn the difference. You did an excellent job on your presentation. Happy painting.

Good video😊

Excellent ! Do you have a video on how you mix and lay down your base coat ? Thank you !

Good video, I always have a problem when they say add water to consistency but never sure how much to add.

Thank you..😊😊😊

Wish the cup was on a dark surface. But thank you so much for this tutorial.very appreciated.

Hi Becca I am thoroughly enjoying your videos and always learn so much. I wonder if you could explain your mix that you keep in your squirt bottles ? I ask because I have yet to see recipes for large batch preparation for squirt bottles and on the other hand that you shouldn’t mix large quantities because pouring medium and Floetrol should not be left for too long before using ?

Thank you for the instructive video, my husband ordered me a density meter have you ever used one?

So I saw that Olga has the MHU dryer and tapes a bigger condenser on the end. Maybe an idea 🤷‍♀️ Thanks for the comparison.

Hi Becca, great tutorial for mixing Dutch pour paint. Do you use the same mix for your base colour? Many thanks Vicky from Suffolk, UK

Thank you so much! Please share your base color mix. Same consistency? Great tutorial!

Hi Becca, love, love your work. When including a metallic paint in your pour, do you seal with a satin or gloss varnish? And where do you sign your name? I'm thinking on the bottom or back of the frame. Please let me know what medium you use. Many thanks

Hi Becca, what is a straight poor? I just found you and I thought this video very informative. Thank you so much.

You didn't talk about what the base coat should be like. Do you have a video 🎉explaining exactly how to do the dutch pour? Thank you ❤

Hi Becca Do we have to mix silicone before pouring to create larger cells?

@beccaharkinsart The way you mix you paints is so easy to follow and understand, My question is: Is the paint mixed the same way for the base coat/flow extender etc?
