Priming the canvas with one of the spray paints sounds like a good solution to the white spot problem. So glad you are wearing a respirator mask. Can never be too careful.

Thank you for teaching us as you learn. That's really cool and so rare. Too many people are just about the money. I love that you show us how to do it for ourselves and give us tips to help us progress. You're awesome. 💙

Hello! I REALLY like your paintings!!!! Way to go!!! Congrats!!!! I learned to hydro dip from tumblers. This method is also used to apply "scenes" to stickers by floating the pictures on the water's surface. I That "blob" could be from too much paint on the surface. As soon as you pull your canvas, you can blot off the "blob" with a paper towel. I do that on tumblers. Yes, at an angle eliminates trapping air bubbles. Same with tumblers. I suspect you will soon learn how to float a picture on the water's surface!!! You can always go deeper, like in a bucket! And then you can twist the canvas to also create swirls! Some use a stick to move the paints around, or to attach the paint to the container's sides. Metallics dry faster than the regular colors. Being outside will cause paints to dry faster. AND there are also glow in the dark sprays!!! OH My!!! Sweet, they are!!!! If you are advised to clean with mineral spirits, lacquer thinner, or acetone, like when we spray paint the tumblers, then you are not using a water based product - methinks!!!! Thank you for this video! Really pretty art!!! Blessings and Re Jouir -Darlene

They turned out cool. Love the 2nd one. Cant wait to see what happens when you spray a coat of spray paint on there before you dip 😁❤💚💙👍

I suggest you use a colored gesso for the priming rather than spraying the canvas with the oil-based enamel. (Multiple reasons) I would also wait at least a week or more before sealing with clear topcoat. (Again, multiple reasons) Enjoyed the vid. Thanks and have fun.

Just for future knowledge, if paint is soap and water cleanup, it is not oil. Oil takes chemical for cleanup.

So looking forward to seeing many more of this hydro dipping! More colors, layered designs, wood, rocks, my goodness the list goes on and on! Great experiments!

I’d like to try that but put a vinyl design on it first, then dip and remove the vinyl. I wonder if the design would show. Thanks for the video!

I love those colors together its so pretty 😍 always keep me intrigued with all the different things you do! Absolutely love your channel!!! 💜

Ohhhh i wonder if the metallic sprays paints would work well also ?? That would be cool

Cool! Same principal as fingernail polish marbling!

Purple is my favorite color 💜💜💜 I'm diggin it too!

I love that you're trying out the hydro dipping technique I was wondering when you were going to do this. The second painting turned out so very beautiful

Awesome! I had a feeling that the angle the canvas entered the water might make a difference. These are very cool!

Love this, I used to do my nails all the time. You've definitely inspired me to give it a go 😍 Thank you.

They came out very nice. I hope you and your family are having a good weekend. xxx 💖💖💖

Very cool! I'm from the nail polish world and this technique is sort of what we do when we water marble our nails! Some polish floats and some sink. There are tons of videos about watermarbling nails. I got into fluid art because I got tired of working on tiny canvases, you make beautiful artwork ♥️

Love the purple. Second painting was awesome! Thanks for sharing!

This is so cool! Thanks for sharing new and exciting things for us to try. 👍🏼

I really love this on canvas you done great job can’t wait to see more ! Lisa

❤️I love the last one the most too🥰👍 this is too cool! 💕🤗 Thanks Marcy😄❤️

LOVE this idea!!

Love it! I'm curious, if you dyed the water a funky coulor or put glitter in the water would they have different effects?

Might be interesting with a black canvas and maybe neon colors?

They both turned out great !

The first one was beautiful. But I'm like you my pick. Is the second one. Have no spotting at all. It's so beautiful. Thank you for sharing. You have a wonderful evening.

Sweet! I'm not sure what the room temperature is but from what I remember, warmer water helps. Excited to see what comes next!

Awesome video!!! Would love to try this!!!! Are you using just regular water?

If you’re not sure if it’s oil based; maybe try using one that states it’s oil based. I believe this method is called Intaglio. Where oil based paint is poured or sprayed onto water then transferred to canvas. Which is what you did, but maybe it’s not oil based and possibly why you have blank spots. I am no art major or know much at all, but I have heard of this method. Love all your painting though. Your acrylic pours got me into trying it myself. Keep up all the amazing content.

I did paper marbling in Gatlinburg. The white spots were from bubbles.

Neat idea..love the second one..nice work..tyfs♡

Great job👍❤

This is great! Thank you! Do you think this would work with watercolor or mixed media paper??

I love this!!! I tried it once, with nail polish but it didnt work out so well. Haha

That was fun. Thanks

I love that! I've been dipping cups and s&p shakers with Marabu paints. The cups sell pretty good. You did a overly job on the canvases.

Love this. Can you dip Christmas ornaments the same way?

Make sure your water is warm, not hot, and never cold. Cold water starts to dry the paint before you dip. Spray very quickly, then dip. For swirl effect, immediately lightly swirl with stir stick then dip. Or, tap sides of container for a ripple effect. For best effects, hydro dipping must be done very quickly.

What do they look like dried? Since it’s spray paint, do you still need to seal them?

The second one looked like you were using the paint like a heat gun or blow dryer. They both look pretty cool. If you felt like you want to fix the holes, you can spray a little paint into a little container or even on the work surface and dab it on the places you need the colour.

Hi there from the UK, I have just subscribed and wanted to say hello and thank you for your wonderful videos.

Watch how you spray the paint and before dipping, make sure there are no thin or empty spots of paint on the water. I believe that might have something to do with those missing spots of paint. If it's too think when you're dipping you might actually be pulling those thin spots of paint apart.

2nd one gorgeous!

Interesting. I like the idea about using paint on the canvas before dipping. Maybe do more than one color though so if there are spots far to the left and to the right they will be different colors? That's what I would do anyway. *laughs* I would do three colors - one on each end and one in the middle. - Heidi

Would the temperature of the water make any difference?

This is really cool!

Wow pretty cool 🥰 i like them 😊

Interesting to see how you develop this . So far I don't like it but I'm sure you know more than I do.

I wonder what would happen if you painted the canvas beforehand, let it dry, then dipped it....then, even if you did get some breaks in there, you wouldn’t have just some empty white spots....would painting the canvas make the spray not stick?

Hey that looks fun.

I wonder if the gloss paint is causing the white spots possibly? Just A thought.

How long will it last on the canvas?

I’d love to see more images other than cells under a microscope. This is great tutorial and I’m going out a first coat manually in 6 canvasses and see what variety I can create

Lovely 😍

Wow your all video are glorious ❤️🙏🏽👌 Thanks for sharing my stay in touch ♥️

I'd love to see blue/pink/purple/white

I know you are trying to put it in at an angle but in order to get rid of the bubbles (if you do want to get rid of them) you have to put it all the way in at the tilted angle you started with. I hope that makes sense.

Oil based. Thats why it floats. Water-based paints would just dissolve.

Thanks number one cool number 2 awesome love it. I think your not using enough paint 😙😁👍💋

Nevermind on the previous tip. You got it figured out.

Do they get air bubbles in the water during spraying?

Are these acrylic paints or oil paints

The first one looks like a cosmic fried egg. Maybe I'm just hungry.

In order for it to work it has to be oil based if it was water based it would just mix with the water not float on top.

Interesting.

Just a theory but I was thinking, after spraying your design in the water.... lightly spray white all over the design. This would act as the background color and help fight against the white spots of the canvas.....in theory anyway.

AND = have you ever tried it with nail polish?

💛💚 💙💜LOVE💜💙💚💛

maybe lightly spray white over all the paints to fill any holes?

I 'think' spray paint is oil.

Hydro dip a hydroflask.

Number one ; you're not using enough water. For a 10 inch canvas you should be using about 14 inches of water. Number two ; you're not using enough paint. Spray each color for about 5 to 10 seconds. Let the paint settle in the middle for a couple seconds.After you have completely submerged your product then swipe away the leftover paint on top of the water and then pull your product out. Remove it quickly. Number three; Do a base coat on your canvas first. You can choose either one of the colors you're working with, A coordinating color or simply black. Tip; To tell if a paint is oil based or water-based look at the container under "clean up". If it's soap and water clean up then it's water-based paint. If it is a solvent clean up ,like paint thinner ,mineral spirits ,denatured alcohol then it is an oil based paint. Good Luck!

Put some glitter on the paint.

I’m think about doing this idk I use to do it on shoes follow me @miillyloopz_ let me know ?
