@@MarkJRatcliffeArt Yes Silver !!! 👍👍👍 I wonder how silver would look with purples on black base !!?? In my mind it looks amazing, but we all know how that can go at times !! 😊😊
OMG it's soooo interest these colors together. The green appear beautifuly. 💚 Really a divin piece. 💫 Thank you to share with us Mark !! I wish you a beautiful day !!🌈
Haha Nina, we are alike, I don’t like varnishing at all haha and the UK defo doesn’t have the nice weather to do it. Even today when it was warm and still we had so much pollen and dust floating around
It's really very beautiful Mark! I love the colors that you chose the green is beautiful! I of course am a fan of reds yellows and oranges together and a little splash of turquoise! Don't know why that color palette just speaks to me! Thank you for sharing your work with us!
Oh my goodness!!!!!!!! I absolutely love love it.... What a beautiful picture. Amazing art work. You do your happy dance for sure 👍 😉. I enjoy sooo much watching your amazing work. Thanks soo much for sharing your great talent 👏 🙌 ❤
Great Mark, I think it would be also good to leave the black base out of the middle ring and make the middle orange red and yellow somehow and the other colours round the edge of the middle ring, maybe red gold yellow orange like a sun,and a black base like you have now...just a idear..❤
Absolutely gorgeous. I have just come across this video as my Internet connection has been playing up. I love the perfect effect with the circle. I must try this xxxxxx
Well worth a happy dance. I would like to see a flame effect probably orange, red, gold (pearl white maybe) and of course on a black background using the two hoops method❤ Thanks for showing your mindfulness method. I love your calm.
Stunning piece Mark. I would love to see this with maybe silver around the the inner ring and hot pink and purples on the outer which would hopefully pop through like the green has with this piece. Great work,
Sehr schön das Mandala ich habe 4 Jahre Mandala selber hergestellt und ausgemalt mit Farbstiften es war eine beruhigende und dankbare Arbeit seit 7 Jahren mache ich das Acryl giessen es ist interessant und gibt viele Möglichkeiten 🙏❤️🙋🏼♀️🇨🇭
It is very beautiful. Thank you for sharing your beautiful artwork. I think I would use a black background with gold, silver, red, copper or bronze, or both.
Woooow Mark, this piece has an awesome depth and I absolutely love how it seems to be glowing from behind with that beautiful green. The details are marvellous. This piecs reminds me a bit of my own eyes with the brown area of the iris around the pupils and the green around it. But your piece of art - with those precious metallic colours - is much more shiny than my eyes are - LOL Great job! 💖🖒
That's so pretty. Have you thought of doing the middle ring as a blowout and then doing your swipes with the ring still in place. That could be interesting 😀
Really enjoyed you make this starburst and you made it with green, also my favorite color. How about using all metallics next time, green metallic, bronze metallic, silver metallic, red metallic, gold metallic and any other metallic you have on a black background and on a white background.
Looks like I'm stopping by the craft store on the way hone for some embroidery rings! I really love this! It should be hung horizontally under a window in an entryway! The green is gorgeous but I am so curious what this would like if you swapped the green for reds
Yay! That’s what I say say when I see one of yours pop up! This is stunning and you did a good job of making it symmetrical in the creative zone which you so easily get into. Wishing you a fab evening. ML ❤
ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS! I LOVE IT!! These swipes are fantastic! I love watching you create them! Hope all is well! Ty 4 sharing! I wonder what it would look like on a long skinny canvas, black base, using the smallest ring with like a criss crossing pattern of rainbow colored swipes around the rings (different colors around each ring in sequence of the rainbow). I hope that makes sense. lol. It does in my crazy little head. haha! Sending lots of love as always, my friend! xo
Mark, this is so awesome 👏. I love your swipes. The green is so amazing. What about a red center with some yellows and fiery colors swiping outward like the sun???? Love your work. Lee from Rome, Ga. USA
Happy dance. I love it. The circle is interesting in that turning it creates a bit of detail. Green is also one of my favourite colours. This particular green reminds me of appliances and telephones of my childhood. You're probably way too young to remember that, though. Yeesh, what were they thinking? Lol But as a colour I love it. The symmetry of the circle adds to the piece positively. Of course, I would have to maybe plunk a mandala in the middle. I've been making those since childhood and was taught when a brown man came to our art classes in gr 5. I'm sorry. I called him a brown man, but I can not remember his ethnic background. It was pertinent to the lesson historically, so it was likely a man from India. We were so very lucky to have had art classes right up into high school! Although art history was also part of the curriculum as we got older. No, I didn't go to public school, I went to a Catholic Montesorri type school. We were very progressive for the time and were very controversial. Anyway, bc I will never do swipes (maybe lol), I'm going to keep my eye out for your work, and if I can afford it, I'm in! I'm not so much worried about your prices, more the shipping. Isn't it wild right now! I do have a piece from Rinskes nature series, and it looks great in my living room. Like I've said, thank you for sharing your gift. 🩷✌️🩷
Thank you so much! You’re very kind and yes I agree shipping is horrendous and unfortunately does put lots of people off. But it’s all good as I appreciate all of your support 🤩🤩🤩
Omg this really came together so well!! Great idea to retain the inner ring as well as to give it that gentle spin to add to the depth of the center. Love it! Have you done a piece with blues yet?
@@MarkJRatcliffeArt Thank you for your reply Mark. I would love you to stay with your favourite colour Green,but would love to see just All Greens including Sage for my benefit , I have a sage green kitchen minus a painting for me to attempt from you.. I’ve done a blue swipe today from your Chanel and I love it, I bought the owatrol too. Thank you so much for helping me start these beautiful creations I have only one from today at the moment and love it. Thank you .
Love this!! You do a really great job w these!!! Gotta try the tp. Are you using 2ply and what brand are u using? All tp and paper towels are made different.
Not a silly question. Mine did too, but within the hoop with the screw is another hoop which pops out when you loosen the screw. Thats the one I then use and I dispose of the outer hoop with the screw.
Thank you for your reply Mark, I did wonder if that was the case! I have ordered a couple of hoops as your video has inspired me. I only started pouring about a month ago so this is a bit ambitious for me but I’ll see how it goes 😅 Love your background music, the gentle meditation stuff, it’s so relaxing. Some artists use annoying music which spoils it for me 😂
I use a torch (never used a heat gun). I think they both do the same job but a heat gun is used more with resin to get bubbles out and torches are used more in acrylic painting pours
Hey! I’ve just added Polish to the video - hope that helps? I’ve also added polish to my latest five and I’ll work my way through my catalogue and will always add polish
That’s lovely Mark! Would love to see something like this with silver instead? Silver is a pretty color too but not much used. Thanks Mark!
Thank you so much Gemma. Yeah I agree. Silver is beautiful. Let me see what I can come up with 🤍

Yes! Thank you! 🥳
You mastered the circle, yeah ! ⭕️👍

I love how the gold in the center creates an illusion that the black is raised. Love the green!
Thank you 😊 💚
I love these colors and leaving the inner hoop is an excellent suggestion. I must try one soon. Thank you so much.

This has turned out really well.
Thank you Lorraine 💜

Hi Mark .Great painting as always. This one reminds me of a sun burst .How about a fiery Red ❤
Great suggestion! Thanks Carol ❤️

Thanks 👍 More happy dance 🕺 soon x
Awesome! Have u ever done some blowing after u do a swipe? Guess I could look thru all yr videos to see.
Ohh it’s something maybe I should do? I’ve combined Dutch pour and swipe - but not blown the paint after swiping….
Hmm now that’s a great idea!!
It would be interesting to see colours previously used, say the blues, but on a white background.
Thank you for the color ideas Janine 🔵
Love this Mark, great idea to leave the ring in place. Varnishing is my least favourite job too. 🥴🥴
Thanks Linda! Appreciate your support always ❤️
