    I've been watching a lot of these videos nowadays and even tried my hand at this (with the cheap materials I can find), and I must say you're my favourite pour artist. I like how you are so precise, clean and careful in your work. You prepare and plan before the painting really well, and that way you have to do minimum fiddling with the paint once its on the canvas. I think that's why you get stunning results. Learning a lot, thanks!

    Just found your channel the other day and I love watching you make your beautiful art. I’m a fiber artist/yarn dyer now as well as a glass artist. I just love color!!! =} you mentioned the floetrol/ water squeeze bottle leaking in this video. I had the same issue when using some squeeze bottles for my dyes and I remembered something I used on leaking faucets and shower heads. I used the Teflon plumbers tape on the threads of the bottle and voila no more drips. I’m not certain if anyone else has given this tip, so I thought I’d mention it. Thanks for sharing your creations!!
    Take care,
    Wanda Garcia

    I have the same level problem. I'm about a mile and a half to two mi. from the epicenter of the lovely little shaker we had in Alaska last fall.
    I got a fix for 98cent bottles. Go to the hardware store plumbing section and get the white plumbers tread tape. This trick will save your do. Hair do that is. None of us pretty enough to pull off bald spots. Lol
    You gave me an idea when I was watching. I got my vid camera yesterday! (Bounce bounce bounce) so as soon as I figure out how to use it I'll try my idea out and if it doesn't suck, I'll post it.

  • @monicacamilli2743

    Gina there is something quite different about your pieces than most others. This one is extraordinarily beautiful! Other than just experience, can you give me an idea how much/little paint to remain on the canvas so it dries properly without cracking?

    • @GinaDeLuca
      @GinaDeLuca  6 лет назад

      I really can't. There are so many variables. A good thing would be to use the chart that tells you how much paint to use so you start off with the right amount.

    • @GinaDeLuca
      @GinaDeLuca  6 лет назад +1

      I'd still use paper towels, just use a new one every swipe. You could also use a piece of acetate and wipe in between swipes.

    Hey again. Can't find 100% silicone in a bottle anywhere, but I've got a box of silicone spray. I presume it makes no difference if I spray a little into a cup and take from there with a pipette a few drops and mixed to the painting. Right?
    Shall I in case not stir the silicone with the paint but just let it stay between the different paints in the cup before I turn it over to the canvas?

  • @ireneolsen4849
    @ireneolsen4849 6 лет назад +1

    Thank you ever so much for your fine and informative videos. I have been looking all over to find latex based Floetrol which I mean you have recommend to use some time before, but I can only find water based Floetrol. Will it be a different reaction to the paint using water based compared with latex based Floetrol - and if so what will the difference be?
    Thanks for your answer!

  • @paulohaver7435
    @paulohaver7435 3 года назад

    Love your stuff!!! I have a question. When I tried the swipe method, I used white to swipe over primary colors, but the cells did not show up until almost 1/2 way across the canvas with the white covering too much of the canvas. Did I use too much white? Maybe too thick? I used a flexible plastic to drag the white. The part where the cells showed thru looks good. Just too much white.

    • @GinaDeLuca

    • @lorraineknudsen3859
      @lorraineknudsen3859 5 лет назад

      that part confused me..thought there was silicone in the bottle with water and floetrol. Wasn't silicone..was coconut hair serum.. but then was it silicone in the last blue to coat?
