I am so happy that i found acrylic pouring/fluid art a few years ago. It has helped me in so many ways and it just keeps getting better and better. This visual arts creative outlet has made me so happy. I am loving this abstract art! I hope to keep doing this for years to come! I have always been fascinated by modern and contemporary art. There is something about it that is so freeing and expressive. I love acrylic pouring because i get to experiment and really join the creative side of my brain with the scientific part! There are so many different fluid acrylic pouring techniques out there, so much more to try and have fun with. Make sure you are subscribed to my channel so that you may learn and be creative with me. I love hearing all of your comments.

Molly, I LOVE your channel and have followed you for 4 years now..don’t talk much but like everything😁
I started painting in late 2019 and I finally found a medium that not only could I use all the wonderful colors I loved from my stained glass days, but allowed me, the non painter who can’t draw AT ALL, a way to paint and love it! I finally gathered the courage to try showing my art and Covid hit shutting down the places I was going to try. In 2021, a local juried art festival called Colorscape in upstate NY that has over 100 artists every year, accepted me and as a 70 yr old newbie, so I gave it a try. Like you, I was flabbergasted that people wanted to buy my art! But even more fun was talking to all those interested in what I used and how I made everything!..The following year I went again after going through a few changes to display etc but again enjoyed it and had a good show! Last year, 2023, my daughter and I were unavoidably late getting to the second day so opened up late and at the end of the show I saw the director coming towards me and I thought..oh no..she is upset that we were late ( I never see her during the show), but instead she walked into my tent and presented me with a second place ribbon for my category and a very nice check !! I had to sit down! Absolutely blew me away! You are so right when you say you just never know who will like what you make and when..Don’t give up and most of all just enjoy the process!! Oh.. also..it’s never too late to try something new😉
wow, that's wonderful! I'm so excited for you! Thank you for sharing!!!
Molly this has really really helped me. All the art and furniture I have made over the years I’ve always thought was never good enough to sell. So I’ve always given it away. My oldest son (35) tells me all the time, “Mommy you need to start selling your stuff so you can at least ways recoup your money spent.” I was invited to do 2 shows. Literally 2 weeks apart. The first one is only one day for 4 hours but the second is for 2 days 10 hours a day. I was scared for my youngest son (12) to see me fail. My husband and son kept telling me, “You never fail if you give it your all!” The words of wisdom in this video has truly helped me! More than you actually know! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
Molly, I when I saw how long this video was, I was hesitant to watch it! But, it is well worth the hour it took to watch! I loved your explanations on how to set things up! I think you were very responsible gently reminding us about sales tax and business licenses! How exciting to see you get interviewed for local news! Your Smart Art courses are definitely on my Christmas list!
Molly, I’ve never done a show but have a huge inventory to start. My paint room looks like I’m a hoarder! This video has been SO informative and thank you for all the time to make this. I recently retired and now have the time for this. Thank you for all the valuable information..you’re the best!
Excellent information even for those of us who just love attending art shows as it gives a very clear idea how much effort goes into preparing for them.
Molly, i used to do your kinda paintings and i just got to the point i couldn't anymore. I'm old. I watch your channel because of you. Your personality is so uplifting. Even when you are a bit aggrevated, you come thru positively. Keep going on. We need you.😂❤
thank you so much
I stuck to the end and then went back to watch the beginning again. Thank you for all the time you spent to bring this to us!! I know for sure now a show will NOT be my cup of tea. Thank you again.
I found this really helpful. I’ve done many indoor shows but am thinking about adding some outdoor Farmers Markets. Also, I’d love it if you could do a video showing how you do your matted pieces. I think that’s a great idea, since it’s so sad to toss a whole piece when part of it is amazing!
What a great video and such a wealth of information! I did shows for several years 15 years ago when I was doing stained glass. I did decorative soldering and matted and framed a lot of my pieces. I wish I had thought about renting a tent and a van! That would have saved me so much time and so much work. I love the bags you make for your artwork. That's a great idea. Where do you purchase that special bubble wrap? It's such a safe way to keep pieces in your studio and a great way to transport your art. I know how much work it is to get ready for a show, pack your car, put up your tent, unload your car, hang your work, etc. It is EXHAUSTING!! How fortunate that your husband is so supportive and helps you with everything. At 83, I'm really not up to doing shows anymore. I have an Etsy shop but I didn't keep up with it and I think they closed it. I was making resin pieces at the time. I'm thinking about putting some of my paintings up on my shop but don't know what to do about shipping them. Anyway, you've brought back a lot of memories for me and it was fun listening to you and how excited you get. I think you are such an awesome person, Molly.
I have been a full time artist since 13 but have been doing shows around the country for decades. You did a really good explanation of commitment to show work. It’s not easy and lots think I’m on vacation the whole time, lol. It is lots of work but can be enjoyable too.
Molly, thank you so much for taking me along with you on your art journey. 2019 was the first time I got a smartphone that came with RUclips, all of this was brand new to me. Then one day talking on the phone to my daughter Cierra Raine, she could tell I was a bit overwhelmed. She told me about the search bar 🔍 and told me to type in Molly's Artistry and thank her later. Molly you were the very first artist & channel that I subscribed to. I have watched every single video you have posted including the ones before I subscribed. It has been so fun and inspiring watching you grow into the artist you are meant to be. The art show I go to each year is in Memphis, Tennessee, Cooper Young Festival one day only of 100's++ of different artist and different genres 3 live band stages food & drinks galore including alcohol. It's feels more like a huge block party! I have a couple videos on my channel of 2023 Cooper Young Festival. This was a great informative video Molly. May you continue to be Abundantly Blessed 🥰💜😘💕
Molly, I never would have thought of matching paintings that didn't work and using the parts that I really like. Thank you so much! I never would have thought of it
This video was a real blessing for me. Even though I don't sell art I do sell at flea markets. A lot of what you said can be beneficial to me or others.
Thank you Molly for the time you take to help people. Your a good hearted person. You have inspired me so much. Bless you !
Your paintings are beautiful !!!
Wow, Molly, this video is so appreciated. Thank you for sharing with us so many aspects of the working on the Arti Gra booth a year after year and invested the time to create this video for us. This video actually came in a time when I almost completely given up hope on selling any of my artwork at all. I've been pouring for a year and a half and haven't made any progress with the sales side of the trade, so your words kind of made me think about all you said, I really hope to succeed, it is very discouraging to make all the work, invest money and not get anything financially in return. Thank you for the pep talk and happy painting!
Molly, I just wanted to say how much I appreciate this vid. I probably have at least 120 canvases boxed up in my home and quite honestly didn't know where to begin to sell my work. I love the pouring process, not so hip on the selling process. This video was very helpful. I saved this for future reference just in case I find myself going down this path. You are a constant source of inspiration and I appreciate you to much... Thank you!
Molly, thank you so much for bringing us along for the ride! Your booth turned out amazing! My husband is equally as supportive as yours and I'm so very lucky. It warms my heart to see that for you 💚
Love the idea of matting pieces! It would be awesome to see that process as well. You're such a vibrant and warm light and I love watching you. Thanks for always being a bright spot in my day!
Excellent video for people starting out!! What was missing was the financial breakdown. Artist seem to be hesitant to put that information out there. For people starting a business I believe it is important to share the financial information for the 1st show to where you are today. This sets realistic goals when you are 1st starting. Numbers are numbers and a part of business . And are often laden with fear in the beginning. I have also seen many artist over the years down grade there art with pricing to low. It is not good for them or other artists. In the beginning your prices will be lower but not cheap. Reputation , as you get more well known is when prices go up. Over the years I have had the pleasure of watching emerging art grow into very well known artist who make a very comfortable artists living . The fluid art world is something very new to me. I have been enjoying watching all of you on RUclips .💖💖💖💖
very well summarized.. I. too have financial questions, pricing, sales ..
I loooved this video. I'm not a artist,although I'd love to be able to do so, this video was so educational, informative,and interesting. Awesome job Molly. It took a lot of work and effort put into the video,shows, etc... You are an amazing person and to have your husband's support(in more ways than one)has to be encouraging for you. Thumbs up to you husband for being there for her.😊
This is such a great video, with so much valuable information. I’ve only done 1 show so far and it was a complete flop. There were literally 50 or less people in attendance over 1.5 days. I didn’t sell anything to any of those people, but sold 4 pieces to other vendors. My goal was to learn and anything beyond that was a bonus. Knowing my art is hanging in the homes of people I do not know is such an overwhelming feeling.
Hi Molly you are truly gifted God bless you❤, love how you frame your art 😊 if you ever have time to show how you frame your arts that would be amazing🌹
Thank you so much for sharing all the aspects of the show! Your husband is a great asset for you, and handsome too!
It's a great thing to have someone who supports and helps you to achieve your dreams. It's precious when he helps you tilt the big pieces.
Looking forward to future viewings, and seeing all the videos painting all the beautiful pieces you create!
Thank you so much!
True enough.. everybody has different tastes in art. It's a personal thing. It's about getting out there. Hope to do a show real soon! Thanks for the tips Molly😁😘
Well said!
Oh and you are so right getting out there is so important because your day didn’t go as you want the contacts you make are so important and being greatful to those that love your creations comes from the heart and they do love it.
Thank you so much for this video! It's really cool to see all the behind the scenes footage and tips from your experiences at art shows.
I just loved that video. The « behind the scenes » and all processes that help an artist to follow his/her passion and reach his/her dreams always interested and moved me. So big Kudoo, you work hard and you deserve all the success you got overtime.
I wish and would really appreciate if you could bring us thru a journey of painting bunch of coasters and how you make matted pieces. I have seen the video you posted some years ago where you show how to make magnets, I learned with you how to make mines 😍.
Tks for your generosity for sharing your art with us.
Again I remember you applying for the first Artigras and being nervous about the judging panel. This is a great video Molly, full of helpful stuff and I'm so with you on the achy knees and back, I can fully sympathise! 🤨
I started watching you a while back and I started painting. I didn’t think I am good enough and I don’t have any where to paint. You are my inspiration and I Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I hope one day, I will be able to do what you do. Soon I will take your course and learn as much as I can. You are a Wonderful person. Thank you for all that you do.
thank you so much, I wish you the best!
Molly, you are such a professional- this was soooo informative!!! Thank you for taking the time to put this all together for us, your viewers! You are an inspiration 😘😊
Wow! That van load! Thats exhausting just looking at it!
Yes it was!
Molly, I appreciate you, too! Your paintings are so inspirational to me. They brought me back to life, after cancer surgery, and I started doing my own paintings. Really, I am healthy cancer-free and painting and watching you paint has been a big part of that. So thank you! I would love to see how you finish off paintings. I notice that you have wood frames around most of your paintings that you sell. Do you have someone do that or do you do that? Either way how do you get it looking so good? Then, how do you determine your pricing? I would think it would be cost of materials, time and size.. The basics but then how do you determine what you think can get the most money. Thank you for considering this and all of the many wonderful things you do for this industry! Love you!
Thank you. bless you. You are so kind to share and give the pep talk about selling our art. I always love your work and I'm so happy that you share your videos with us.
Molly, you gave us so much information in this video!! So so helpful! I'll have to watch it several more times and take notes!!
Molly, thank you for taking your time to give us so many tips and to be a part of the process ❤
This has been a wonderful video. I learned so much even though it confirmed it is not for me at 84. I would love it if you could show us how you rap the paintings with the aluminum foil rap. Thank you!
I'm so glad you shared the story of the huge blue painting! I'll remember that painting the most! I loved it! I always wondered how on earth you varnish a painting that big. I'm an introvert so art shows are totally out for me. LoL. I admire how brave you are! And congrats on the number of subscribers! You are definitely fun to watch and your class has really helped me progress further. Thanks Molly!
Thanks for all the information. It is a lot to do to participate in a show and if I ever take part in one, I will be better prepared all thanks to you. I feel so lucky to have found you onRUclips. Thank you, Molly.
Molly, thank you so much for sharing your journey and experience with shows and selling your art. This is one aspect of creating that I find incredibly uncomfortable and have stopped doing. I now only create for love and do not sell. I really enjoyed your candid and upbeat sharing of your experiences. Thank you again.
Molly you are such an inspiration and a joy to watch. 👏🏼🙏❤️
Thank you for sharing all the background work that goes into a show. Very interesting. I have watched you since the very beginning and you have come so far . It's been such a pleasure to watch you grow as an artist x
Great video! I am a water marbling artist just getting into pouring. I love doing shows. I set up an area where my customers can experience water marbling and I sell marbled items. I get so excited when I’m headed to a show and I love talking about my art! You are very inspiring! Thank you!
That is awesome!
Thank you Molly!! Your awesome! 😊💖
Your booth looked amazing this year Molly! Your art looked so colorful and beautiful, sorry that I missed it this year. This was a great behind the scenes look and awesome to see. Thanks for always sharing your art and experiences! 🙏🏼 🙌🏼🫶🏼✌🏼
Great video Molly! Always enjoy your painting and personality! Have been to many shows and appreciate all the work and talent that I see. I am most thrilled to see how much you love and enjoy what you do! Wishing you continued success and happiness!
Hi Molly, thank you for making this video, it is such a great learning tool. Your care and thoughtfulness is so appreciated. Cheers. Michelle from Australia 🌹
Absolutely fantastic video Molly , was great to have an insight into wat u have to go through for an art show , ur enthusiasm shines through , wat an amazing person u r
Great information Molly. I can’t even imagine what you go through planning these big events.
So so much information I will have to watch it again I love you guys and I am praying for you I am so glad you had a great show Thank you for putting it all together again love your paintings
You are so welcome
Molly, could you please do a short video about how you and your husband made the bags? Great idea and I want to do it for an upcoming show.
Thank you soooo much Molly. This video, the information, and you, are truly appreciated. I’m learning a lot from you and you’re so inspiring. 🤗💕
Molly, this is such a great video! It helps us all to see what you go through behind-the-scenes to get everything ready and breaks it all down for those that may want to try it out! Thanks for all the great tips and tricks and sharing your knowledge and expertise! The shows look exhausting, but rewarding!
Thank you Molly for this!! I appreciate it so much. I am watching it all now. I am searching out more Art Festivals to attend.
I just want to say that this video couldn’t have come at a better time for me. I went to an art show recently and came away thinking “What on earth made me think I could paint?” All of the artist there did either photography or realistic paintings. When I thought about my abstract art, I didn’t feel like it measured up. I love it so much, and the people I’ve shown it to seem to love it as well, but so much doubt entered my mind. You’re such a talented artist and it’s so good to hear about your experiences. You’ve made me feel so much better and that maybe I can step out a little more with my own art. Thank you so much for always being so supportive and down to earth. I love watching your videos. You and Olga were the first people I got addicted to watching and while there are a lot of other people I follow now, you are still my favorite ❤️. Love you and hope to be able to see you at one of your shows one day!
Elizabeth, thank you for sharing! we all have self doubt at times and need perspective
What a great informational video. You are an amazing person. I had no idea selling your paintings could get so involved. You must have a ton of energy. I can’t believe all the rigmarole you have to go through to sell your paintings, but whoever is able to buy them are very fortunate. Love watching all your videos and plan to give it a stab myself someday soon.❤️
Thank you so Molly for this video!!! It was very helpful & wise. Your words of wisdom and encouragement really inspire me to go to more art shows!
Thank you Molly!!! This is such a great video! So helpful and generous of you and your time. Keep doing you! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
SOO many amazing tips!! As someone who spent the majority of my life selling at countless “craft shows” with my Mom selling everything from handmade (cabbage patch style) doll babies to handmade pocketbooks, I swore I’d NEVER do shows as an adult! At 16yrs old, I remember disliking them so much bc while all my friends were in bikinis at the beach, I was dressed like Laura Ingles, sweating my bloomers off, selling baby dolls!😂 While they were filming the original Firestarter movie in our town, I actually sold one of our dolls to Drew Barrymore. Point being: as hard as shows may be, I personally have the BEST memories from every one I’ve ever done and have a whole new love for them now as a Fluid Artist! Thank you so much for sharing so many great tips Molly!! Much Love!🤗💕**Oh quick question: Do you get people that want to “make you an offer” on your pieces and if so, how do you handle that situation?
Thanks for all of the great information, Molly! So informative and the tips are so helpful! If you do any additional video on the process, I think it would be helpful to all creators that want to sell their products on how to price things out, from the magnets to the paintings! It seems to be a NASA formula 😂 that I am challenged at times in cracking the code! You are the sweetest and I enjoy watching you create! Hugs!
GM 🌅 from California. Thanks so much for this video 🎉🎉. - Evangelist/ single Mom Marvella Harbin
Molly, I love you so much. You were so informative, I learned so much. You are so awesome ❤
Thank you so much, Molly, for this video and all your inspiration, as always! Please Please Please make another video about doing art shows and your tips for the process!!! You always provide great information on here and in your online course. ❤I'm grateful that you're willing to share your experiences with us. Thank you!
Molly, what an amazing video! Full of good information and you have given me confidence to take part in shows. Thank you so much. Can i get more information on the frames you buy. 👍👍👍
Thank you so much for this video Molly! I have done a couple of shows and this is very helpful! My favorite part of this video is the last segment. Thank you for reminding us that there is a buyer for every painting and to just keep going. ❤
Thank you so much, that was certainly so valuable and so encouraging. I would love to know more of your coasters, if you can do a video of your process too... Also with you matting, can you show how you do that too!
You are so welcome! need to think about it
Molly. Your pieces are always amazing. I paint barn quilts and have never tried an art show.
Molly can you do a video on how you matt the parts of a canvas painting you like.
Thank you Molly, as always very informative. You are such an inspiration. I have been watching your videos for a while now and you are one of the reasons why I fell in love with this type of art.
Great info I don’t paint but always love watching you create. I am a wood worker and I do shows flea markets farmers markets etc. and I got a kick that you have the drawer bins for your setup stuff, I have a rolling tool box with everything to set up. Beautiful booths
Thank you for sharing this!!❤
And for the positive encouragement ❤
You are so welcome
I love that you did this video. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much Molly your so very special ❤
Molly I admire you so much. I love what you create. Thank you for sharing your experiences with us. You answered so many questions that I’d had about doing shows. You’re great!!
Thank you so much for sharing your experiences with us. You are a real inspiration to me. I have probably 100 paintings sitting in my home that I think would never sale,but you give me incentive. Great job. Artistically Me by Paulette
Beautiful job Molly I can see you framed some of your artwork looking good
Hi Molly, I have been a fan since 2019 and absolutely love your art and you for being you! You are one of my top YT teachers and I am so grateful to you for sharing your knowledge of this incredible art form. I do local pop ups and recently signed up to do one of the largest fairs in my area. I'm very excited to have this opportunity. Your video was very timely and informative. I appreciate you for taking the time to coordinate the presentation with as many tips and tricks as you've offered here. This was great! Thanks again!!!
Hi Molly, I always watch your videos and I’am amazed at how relaxed and in your element in each one of them. I just watched the Art Festival Tips & Tricks and it’s super informative. Thank you for that. I have 2 questions: 1) do Fair attendants ask you how you do your paintings, and 2) do you have business cards with your information including your social media connections, and you find helpful to be connected. If yes which it’s been the most rewarding for you. Keep doing your beautiful paintings. Happy painting!!
Molly, Thank you so much for all of the time you put into sharing all of your info and experience! And of course sharing your painting! My husband is also very supportive and helps me so much, which I appreciate so very much. I met you at Arti Gras this year and was stoked! I purchased one of your smaller pieces and Love it, of course! Thanks for all you do!❤❤
thank you so much Julie! Glad you are enjoying it!
Great info. I have found the actual structural booth itself is a huge financial investment and the set up is a big physical endeavor.
Thank you, Molly. I did shows for many years in the 80's and nineties at Christmastime selling stained glass. I did very well until it wasn't popular any longer. I loved it. You are correct about needing someone to help you. I loved the socializing. I loved meeting other artists. I just watched your tips and tricks because you are just so much fun to watch!
Thank you molly for sharing all this tips. I started doing art show’s, it’s my 4th time this year and i’m loving it. . This is really helpful. ❤❤❤ love you!!
Molly this video is wonderful! Putting this together had to be a lot of work. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. It has all the info I've been trying to get. Bless you, girl!
So great and kind of you to show your video Molly!
I LOVE this so much. Wish Australia did more of these - and the ones they do are SO snooty. Quite annoying. And don't get me started on art galleries up here - all a 'mates club'.
Cool video Molly, your booth is fantastic! Love your art, glad you did this for us. Take care.
Thank you so much for your time & help in this video,you've really out done your self. Please can you do a video about your matting.
Crikey Molly - this was amazing :) And I have to say I hadnt noticed that your subscribers had grown so much - i nearly fell off my chair when the interviewer pointed out you had gone from 3k to 900k in just five years!!! Do you really put that down to the shows?? Personally, I have loved your work/videos back from close to when you started on youtube and I will never be unsubscribed from you because you are totally freakin' awesome! I am stoked for you that you are so popular on RUclips - it must make all the hard work you do so worthwhile. :) xxx
Hi Molly, I get you and going to art shows are fun and unpredictable. Thank you for the tips.
Incredibly helpful, thanks Molly. Do you have a video of the big blue painting or it’s little ones, I love the colours and composition 🤗🤗❤️❤️
Girl, I need a nap😂, and I never nap😂 Great info!
My daughter and I just came back from the Tempe festival of the arts. It is blocks and blocks long and not one fluid artist or resin artist. My daughter does resin and we were so disappointed that there was no one there doing our kind of art work.
This was awesome. I do a few craft fairs during the winter in Yuma Az and you have given me a few ideas that will make my displays better. I thank you so much for this video and all the other advice you give❤
J
What a great video! Thanks for taking the time to do it. I have done vendor events before, & learned they aren’t for me. I love the social aspect, & have sold some of my pieces. Yet, the set up & breakdown is too much for me at this point in my life. & the heat in Florida was brutal 😂😂 maybe if I was 10-15 years younger? I will just continue to paint, sell a couple here & there, donate some to local charities for fundraiser events. Can’t stop painting, it’s my therapy!!
Hi Molly, I hear get you and going to art shows are fun and unpredictable. Thank you for the tips.
Thanks for this!!! I do a local university art festival. I have done it for three years! Getting better at some aspects of setting up, some things don't work! The jury process is a scary aspect, but satisfying when you are accepted! My biggest problem is using a wall. They moved the show into a city park. And I swear I'm in a wind tunnel!! It is difficult to keep my canvases on the wall. They want to blow off!!! My husband and I have been brainstorming on making it more stable!!! So thank you for your video!! Very helpful and has given me some good ideas!!!!
best of luck to you!
Thank you sooo much for this video! I wanted to see your setup. Thank you for all the work you do to produce quality videos!!! You are my absolute favorite artist!!!!!!
