Wow… to be frank I didn’t think these Colors would make a great combination but the composition makes it all! I’m not a fan at all of red, especially when mixed with black and yellow. But with blues and greens, just stunning. That being said using the blues and greens for one piece would have been gorgeous as well. Mark what an artist you are…. 😍

Good afternoon, Mark You always surprise me when you use colors that I am not sure of. All I can say is that this is beautiful. To me, it looks like there are green trees. Like a forest with streams running through, and then the red is like lava. I also see bubbles throughout the piece. The colors in the red are just beautiful. So are the greens. I have learned colors I would not think would look good, and it always looks so amazing. I have to clean my mom's room out, and that is going to be my art room. I just have not gotten to the point that I want to clean that out yet. Thank you for sharing a straight pour with all the beautiful lines. I enjoy learning so much from watching your videos. Thank you very much, Mark, and I can't wait to see the next video. How often do you paint? Have a wonderful day, Mark 😊

That's just nut's Mark. The colours are outrageous, but gives a three dimensional feel to the piece. Brilliant planning. I know it's bloody expensive, but under resin that would sell at the blink of an eye at any London gallery. Have you ever thought of maybe putting a book together? With your fluid art friends perhaps. The books already out there are pretty dated.... just a thought 😊
