In this fluid art tutorial, I'll show you how to create stunning results with the scoop and fold technique. Using black, white, green, and blue, I'll guide you through the process of creating a beautiful abstract piece of art. Whether you're a beginner or experienced in fluid art, this tutorial is perfect for anyone looking to expand their skills and create unique and eye-catching pieces. Watch now and let's create some art together!
Colors were all mixed with 1 part paint to 2 parts American Floetrol. The Neon blue was thinned out with about 10% distilled water to match the consistency of the other colors. The Green color was created with 1/2 part decoart neon green and 1/2 part master's touch pearlized golden green. Please see list of colors below:

Every time you say 'Scoop... and Fold!' reminds me of 'Bend... and Snap!' from Legally Blonde! LOL Great colors and fun technique. Love to see innovators work!

Hi I'm fairly new to your channel I have to say love your work this piece is awesome I love the green also. When you spoke about the weather well I live in Adelaide Sth Australia and it's Summer here and Mother Nature doesn't know what she's doing. Like you it's cold one day hot the next and so damm humid Keep up the great videos look forward to the next one 😃❤️

This was very well narrated, easy to follow, informative instructions were given, and the end result was amazing🤩👍👏 Ive never heard of 'scoop and fold' before and I cant wait to try it! And if you're looking for a name for your personalized green, Id like to suggest 'Got Your Attention Green' or 'Electric Lime'😁

If your spinner isn't interested in a resolution, I suggest taking a break from one another, maybe seeing new spinners. I LOVE the 15" spinner I got from Ikea. (Now I feel like a matchmaker.)

Hello just subscribed to your channel. My sweet friend Betty from Oak by Betina sent me here .❤ This is very cool. Love the abstract look. May just have to try this technique. If i do I will plug your channel and video. Thanks for sharing and you have to talk nicely to the spinner. They get butt hurt very easily. Spinners these days!! 😂❤❤

I tried this for the first time today, using similar colors that you did for your first one. Unfortunately, my result was nowhere close. The way all the colors combined brush my, it really looked like a pile of mud. LOL I plan on trying again tomorrow with the Amsterdam Pearl colors. I’m thinking about trying this line technique and layering them all with the black in between every two or three colors, and possibly drizzle a little black over the top. What do you think?

@manolimotion 4 ай бұрын

Hi Kathy! Thanks so much! I think thats a great idea! Black sometimes is tricky cause theres times it can overtake the other colors depending on the varying densities of the paints. I would probably mix the paints on the thicker side to prevent the colors from blending too much and looking muddy (Ive made that mistake myself). Also, it would be good to test it out first in a small area to see what it does before pouring, hope that helps :-)
