Determined to master this technique, I've been binge watching as many pearl videos including variations of recipes. I must say as a former Michael's employee I remember how bare our paint shelves were for so long after the original lockdown and reopening. I felt so bad for so many guests waiting for restock, myself included. Glad I found this video, I'm really digging these 3 colors used and have to try this color palette. I've yet to try house paint or the addition of gac 800. I finally started getting successful pearl pours using the decoart S.E. & artist loft soft body and adding a drizzle of pouring medium. I think I'm ready to step it up and try the other recipe. My success to fail ratio sits at about 65% YAY though. However I went from NOTHING IS WORKING to I DID IT in a week. Just gotta brave it. Thank you for the experimental pours 💕❤

One your first three canvases I love how #3 doesn’t muddy. Your paints don’t mingle too much. The cells are cool. The color is cool. On painting #2 the cells are fabulous like you mentioned. And I love those cells that are grey and white. So the white didn’t completely blend with whatever color made the grey. Super cool cells. It’s really interesting that you just let them develop on their own and don’t heat the paint. Also I’m pretty pressed with the use of house paint. I bet that saves money. I’m digging your videos.

What a sacrifice you made to do these. It really takes time and money to do these experiments. Thanks for sharing. BTW when you say Behr satin enamel, do you mean the untinted one 8300 at home depot? Or a white paint that says satin enamel. I have the untinted one for bloom technique. Could I color it with artist Loft? If you don't know I guess I'll experiment. Lol Stay safe. Thank you for sharing.

@PiecesofTaraArtistry 3 жыл бұрын

Thank you for your kind words. Yes I use the Behr Premium Plus Interior Satin Enamel Paint in Ultra Pure White 7050. I think that if it’s a SATIN untinted paint it should work by adding the artist loft white BUT I’ve never done that experiment. I only have the high gloss untinted paint so I don’t think that would work. Please if you do the experiment let me know the results and I can add it in a follow up video. 👍

@@PiecesofTaraArtistry Hi Tara, Unfortunately I didn't get the result I was hoping for. It did cell up a lot more but they weren't nice clean sells. It also went really milky and ate up most of my colour more than DecoArt does. Perhaps it's just a matter of tweaking the amounts again. I used the 2 parts Enamel paint this time. Perhaps I will try 1.5 parts next try. (Its important to not that we can only get Low Sheen Enamel here in Australia but I'm told its very similar) When I try the lower amount of enamel, I will let you know the results.

And the second round, I got confused also whether or not you put white artist loft in it ☺️. Thank you

When I talk in parts I always get my kitchen scale out and measure in ounces. 1 part=1oz. Does that make sense? The only one I tried without the Artist Loft White was the Satin House Paint but then I added it in on another canvas to show the difference. I hope that all makes sense. Please let me know. I’ll try to add how I mix it in one of my upcoming videos.

Thanks Tara for sharing, great video. Having so much trouble getting DecoArt products in Australia so can't even make the recipe from Tammy Anderson. The Pittsburg Satin House Paint or Behr Satin Enamels are they both water based paints?

I understand Francine. DecoArt is hard even for us in the US to get. Yes those paints are water based. Behr Satin Enamels is a Home Depot Brand, but any Satin House Paint should work. Keep me posted on how things go!❤️🙏🏻

Tara, thank you for quick reply, have done a few paintings of my own and don't get any thing near what you guys do. Scrape them all off and feel like I am wasting a lot of paint. I have been using student paints and they are all the same (medium bodied) so don't know if that means they are transparent or opaque and that is why I am not getting any cells. I think I have become a serial youtube watcher lol. May be that's where my talents are.

Lol Francine... I feel your pain...it can be frustrating at times. Do you have a kitchen scale where you can measure out your base coat recipe. I find that makes a big difference. I do online tutoring if you are ever interested. We could troubleshoot your issues. Just shoot me an email if you are interested. ☺️❤️

@PiecesofTaraArtistry 2 жыл бұрын

Thank you so much Cindy! The cells are made using very thin skin satin enamel base paint. There is a paint reaction when pouring and stretching it and non enamel paint on top. I have many many videos where I explain the process. Check them out for lots more info! ☺️🙏🏻❤️

Excellent experiment. I subbed just for watching it. Which recipe would you say was the best balance between decent cells and colors not disappearing? Sorry, I wasn't sure. I did watch twice. Was it the 2 parts housepaint (HP) with the AL or another?

I have to say that I kept the most color with the 2 parts satin house paint with 2 parts artist loft white. The results were very close though to the Behr satin enamel paint mixed the same way. Hope that helps! Thanks for watching and subbing. 🙏🏻❤️

I’m super happy you made this tutorial! I have a question 🙋🏼‍♀️ so I have satin enamels but in the off white buff color, I saw that you used yours in gray. What would you recommend when using this colored satin enamels for mixing ratios so it dosent eat up all the colors? I also added color to it so it’s not buff colored have you tried this? Any ideas or thoughts on this? I would really appreciate it!! Thanks again for this very generous video. If my satin enamels dosent work I’m really gonna try out Behr house paint now that I have seen the results it’s really cut down my experimenting! 🤗💜

@PiecesofTaraArtistry 3 жыл бұрын

Thank you, Crystal! Soooo...my only experience is with adding color to white satin enamels and in that case I had to add in about another 1/2 part of satin enamels...otherwise when I used the colored satin enamel I used the 1/2 part but I think I would back that down to 1/4 part next time...that was specific to the smoke grey. I’m not sure how the buff color would work...I’m assuming it would be similar to the grey and would need a little less. The variable that I see might be a little tricky is adding the color to the buff white because if the density of that paint is heavy then you would probably need to add a little more of the satin enamels to make the density lighter. I hope this didn’t confuse you but that is my thoughts! ☺️ thanks for the question! Let me know your results!

I actually just got done experimenting with it and I used a 1/4 part of the Satin enamels but nothing but maybe ten cells came thru but like you said I did add some Amsterdam color mixed with FLO and water...so next time I think maybe I need more satin enamels....?

So I wanted to let you know, I watched Dwight and I saw what it was, my artist loft white must have been thick cause when I saw him pouring out the cloud/pearls mix his was a lot more thin that mine, so I added more water and a little more medium and “bam” it worked! So thank you for your insight it helped a lot and now I’m happy and ready to pour on a brand new canvas!! Yay!🤗💫

Due to COVID they had to shut down their plants for several months. I think it is still operating minimally so it is hard to get ahold of any of their paints right now. I actually really like the Behr Premium Plus from Home Depot better. It doesn’t eat the paint as much as DecoArt Satin Enamels. That’s just my opinion though. ☺️

so what makes the cells and how do you get it just on the outside of the painting like you did in one of your other videos

@PiecesofTaraArtistry 3 жыл бұрын

Hi Beverly. It is the Satin Enamel recipe that causes those pearl cells. The pearls are achieved by using that recipe which is a very thin base coat and thin paints over top. You then stretch them and because the bottom paint is so light the top paint sinks and the bottom paint floats up to create those cells. I have a video you can watch that shows the exact recipe and how I mix my paints to achieve them. You can check it out if you are interested! ☺️❤️🙏🏻

Thank you so much! The pearl cells are caused by a paint reaction. I did not add them. It happens when you put an acrylic paint without satin enamel paint over a paint with Satin enamel and stretch it very quickly to make a thin layer of paint. I have many tutorials on my KZfaq that explains the process. 🙏🏻☺️❤️

Does anyone ever explain why a Behr satin instead of matte? I have these leftover paints and some are matte. Is it that different for the reactions?

@PiecesofTaraArtistry 2 жыл бұрын

That is a very good question! So….from what I have gleaned from other artists and what I know of paint additives…the matte paint has less “varnish” additive (which makes it heavier or denser) to it so it might work but will probably produce very little pearl cells… That being said I don’t know this for sure because I have never tried it. The semi gloss and high gloss will produce a pearl like look as well… you just don’t get the puffy cloud like pearls from them like the satin enamel. For some reason the satin enamel has some sort of additive that gives it a puffy look. Because I liked the look of the puffy pearls I never tried using any other house paints. That is a very interesting experiment…I might have to try! In the meantime if you try it I’d love to see your results! My email is taralombardi1010@gmail.com. 🙏🏻☺️❤️
