The haters that say their 8 year old can do it is the ones that dont understand art and what it takes.. let them be haters.. they are the ones that dont follow their passion so they put others down.. pray for them 🙏🏼
No eight year-old is ever going to do what you’ve done in this composition. I can understand constructive criticism, but not insults. Today was my first day watching you and I enjoyed every moment the cursing because that’s real your composition is fantastic and so beautiful! Thank you so much for posting and sharing.
I've been doing this for a couple of years now and try and follow the directions as close as I can. I've gotten some decent results, but never anything close to this. I believe that all paint thin differently, set up differently. If I would have been messing around like he was, my paint would be already setting up. The set results I got was when they said 7-8 drops silicone I put about 20. I don't believe they are telling us every little detail.
It's giving Lisa Frank goes on safari energy. Like I see a giraffe's neck close up, bending down to drink from the watering hole amongst the zebras. Very fun to watch! And well done! Lovely piece
Haha! I love the comparison to Lisa Frank on a safari! That's definitely a unique way to describe it. I'm glad you enjoyed the video and found it fun to watch. Thanks for your comment!
Hi Manoli, you’re Greek so I’m I , thank you for sharing I love this painting it’s gorgeous I’ve done a few swipes and anyone says it’s easy well it’s not paint does what paint is going to do so keep creating have fun be blessed!
I absolutely LOVE this, the colors are perfect. Im all about the bright neon colors! For someone who says he is nervous on camera, you have a very nice calm voice.....curse words and all! I am so new to this and ive have watched many videos, with many different artist...you my friend are my favorite! keep up the good work and ignore the negative comments.
Wow! thanks so much! Yes, I tend to get nervous on camera but I'm getting more comfortable with more practice but comments like yours are what give me confidence so thank you! :-)
This was different from any other. Absolutely loved the black and white base coat and wish more of it remained. Beautiful colors and looking forward to seeing more!
Wow! I've done over 300 pours and I've seen more but this is my favorite ever! Your colors and style and ocdism is exactly like mine. We should do a virtual session.
Hi! This turned out to be really fun! I was just sad that so many of your meticulous stripes poured off!😢 But, I was thinking, what if you prepared another canvas and basecoat and as you stretched it off, you added the poured off parts to that canvas and used it for another swipe and stretch? Highlight that cool stripe again! Enjoy!
Take it my dear friend from a 71 year-old artist that art is very subjective to the person looking at it believe me not everybody thinks that looks like child’s play I don’t…… Keep your chin up and keep going. You never know what might happen to you in future!
I must admit, i got bored and obviously knew i didnt know a thing about what you were doing or trying to achieve. Having watched until your final result, i find this absolutely incredible and get now why you did what you did. Thank you for sharing your talent❤
I didn't read any negative comments. All I can see, is the fascinating use of colours without control, to reach an amazing result! This is WOW! Thank you very much for your Art! 👏👏👏
This really caught my eye. I've noticed in my life of creating, people always think it's easy until they do the work themselves. As an artist, there is color, composition, execution and finishing. Can it be copied, techniques, yes. But never the same result. Paint pouring is like chaos theory in motion.
Cells in particular can be really difficult the paint and consistency is so important . I've only had one good one and I've been trying on and off for about a year now . This piece is fantastic
Love it. I'm curious about the long, tedious black n white ring base coat. How would the finished product be different had it just been white or black? There's a couple corners that show the zebra look but was all that necessary when 90% is gone? Thanks.
It was completely unnecessary. Originally I wanted more black and white lines in the painting but I did not layer the colors accordingly to do so. Therefore, it did not turn out as I intended. :-)
Nice! First video of yours i happened upon this morning. I will be watching several more. Wanted to say I love the realness while painting, i didn't mind the cursing at all. I do it all the time 🙂. Thanks for sharing.
I loved how the initial fingerprint looking would begin moving. The weight of the paints colors one after another …so exciting! I couldn’t wait to see what was coming next! YEA TO YOU ❤😊
Clearly there were a lot of haters, and I see those comments have vanished (which is good) but what I popped into the comments to say was, as someone who'd love to do this sort of art, I like your humility with being nervous and what you aren't comfortable with. A lot of artists who talk through their videos give it too much "omg hype!" (in my opinion, great artists, just not my kinds of videos, even though I love the paintings...)... but you had a really nice energy, and created a BEAUTIFULLY vivid piece! I love the vibrancy.
You mentioned the music, and it was energizing in preparation for a new day as the sun was coming up, bring the day toi life, being joined by the birds and butterflies. As for the painting, I love it. This is the first demonstration I've seen by you. FORGET the naysayers!
Beautiful painting! I found the music distracting while listening to the instruction-perhaps a lower volume so those with hearing difficulties can understand better.
This is the first painting of yours I’ve watched. Love it! The only suggestion I have is please show us the finished/dry canvas. It would be nice to see if/how your paints move before they dry.
Thanks so much Lisa! This video is from almost a year ago. And since than and after the numerous feedback I’ve received about that, I’ve started showing the dried results at the end of each video. This painting in particular dried beautifully and I ended up varnishing it with resin. ❤️
Thanks,...! Been painting all my Life, but new to fluid art,... I'm Hooked,...Amazing outcomes, and after all the prep work etc. You have a complete painting. Really like your work....All the Best...!
Finally an artist that talks like me. Feel like I'm in church most of the time! Beautiful . Ive done about 30 paintings since November but I'm going to try this ! haha jk
Hi. I love your painting. And to your statement NO a child can’t do this. Lol. I never give advice, I learn from these videos. I learned a lot from you. The work you put into the black and white stripes was amazing. When you started to tilt, I wanted to tell you. Wait! Pour puddle paint around the main parts before you tilt. This would have prevented the black and white stripes from “ rolling over itself” and losing all of your hard work. Please try again and see if it works better.
Thanks so much for the feedback! :-) And you are correct, my intention was to have more black and white stripes in the painting. I used more paint for this painting than I should have and most of the black and white spread off. But definitely gonna give it another shot.
A lot of work practice trial and errors and study and $$$ goes into paint pouring... the prep work before the pour... I love your vibrant colors... I hope your channel takes off keep making vids...😊 your piece came out amazing
This is gorgeous! I had to stop using the scrapers for swipes because I kept accidentally dragging my knuckles through my paintings so I finally bought several different styles and sizes of pallet knives.
Oh my gosh! You are great! And i love the normal banter(cursing). Blow off rhe negative comments. You do good work. Its not easy. I get more bloopers than keepers. Lol
When this popped up in the videos on the side, I just had to watch. Those colours and the composition are magnificent. It certainly does take a lot of learning and experimenting to get to be this good! People who don't do this type of art have no idea what goes into it. Sure, some people do just chuck some paint on a canvas and it turns out without any composition, and I think it is those which gives us a bad name - to some. But far more people value what we do. I just had a peep and yours are all so amazing, you can be very proud of yourself. I have subscribed as I look forward to watching more. Best wishes, Alison Hood, from Western Australia 💕💖💕
Hi Alison from Western Australia! Thank you so much for your kind words! Yes, theres definitely way more than people know that goes into this art. You also do beautiful workm just subscribed to your channel! :-)
Your work is amazing! I too, love the chemistry involved and the surprising results. Thanks for sharing. I really liked the last small lighter application of the white cell activator.
This is my first time watching you live and hey I got a problem with the f word myself LOL and what I really love about you is you share everything the size of your canvas your colors and what brands they are and you're consistencies, I don't think there's anything you left out that like myself would be curious about or wanting to know. And I love how you talk through the whole process. A lot of artists will share so much but not in the detail that you have I appreciate that and I think your pieces turn out gorgeous. So first away I don't have a problem with it. And thanks for all the tips. And I'll be watching you more. So thanks for sharing all that you do. Be safe and well, God bless.
Ok, ive been painting for a few years, and I've watched a metric asston of painting videos. This is, quite possibly, the coolest one I have ever seen! 💜
This turned out absolutely gorgeous! I like the black and white stripes that remained from the pillow i think you called it. I ever like the black and white bubble aeea in middle ish area but your changes turbed out beautifully too. Ive never worked in this medium myself, though im quite drawn to it having seen several of your videos and a few ither people's. I am an Artist, too, Polymer Clay, PMC - Precious Metal Clay, beading, wire work, soldering and knitting so i absolutely know no 8 year old can do this or not in the way the troll meant to hurt your feelings. I know the practice and prep that goes in to anything done so beautifully. Im very sorry that anyone would bother to troll, you don't deserve that. Im very sensitive but i hope youre able to shrug those things off. Thank you for sharing your Work, your Process and your thoughts.
I have to agree with Tammy! No eight year old is going to be able to do what you are doing! Im learning... i paint with acrylics all the time, but POURS are a totally different ball game. Dont be nervous. You are doing great! I am really enjoying your videos and i feel like you are showing and teaching some really nice techniques! 😊❤
I love your work, it’s absolutely beautiful. It is a very accessible art form, but like you say… the prep and knowledge of how the paint and mediums interact takes much practice. I think you’re one of the best fluid artists on this channel… ignore the naysayers😉💕
Give yourself some Grace, you do phenomenal work! Honestly. It's hard to listen when you're just experiencing and having some fun. We are ALL HUMAN. ART is ART and is meant to bring JOY, & figure out what works and what doesn't. I hope you brought yourself smiles like you did for me tonight. The plethora of colors brought me happiness, the swipes, and the I've not ever seen the white & varied colors of Floetrol together. 👏 Job well done.💪
I will seek out other videos of yours so I can become one of your supportive fans. While i don't believe in monetary support, I can still offer up honesty and what works while you teach us what you are doing. Being an artist is vulnerable because you have to put yourself out there into the World. It can be nerve racking as everyone has an opinion and at times people can be cruel. I truly wish you the best and enjoy the heck out of the mediums you currently are using. I know for myself being an Artist made me feel confident and i enjoyed the challenge yet self fulfilled. When i had to stop three years ago due to health issues, it has made me very sad. Now, I am watching other's videos and learning a new hobby of pouring paint, flip cups, blooms, fluid art, etc. It's interesting to watch. I'm so drawn to color combos and color palettes, swipes. What will you be showing us in your next video?
Thanks so much! :-) It truly is a fascinating and therapeutic form of art. It makes me very happy that you understand the vulnerability of putting ourselves out there because people can be such assholes, lol! All the techniques take practice and trial and error but its important to remember to have fun and keep in mind why you were originally drawn to this art form. Its great you're able to learn a new hobby after dealing with health issues. I work in healthcare and understand the set backs that come from health issues. Dont be sad :-) It's great you found something that you're drawn to! I just posted my last video on 06/15/24. Let me know what you think. :-)
@@manolimotionDid you get my message on your last swipe painting? I haven't heard back from you. I've been waiting for your email address so i could give you some personal information. If your not interested it's fine, just let me know. It's on okay, really.
I love the painting. I have tried the pour painting. And I absolutely love doing this. I do the smaller ones but I'm going to try a bigger canvas. I understand why you enjoy doing these painting . I love the bright colors. Have a nice day.
I can’t even leave a comment asking a question for a creator on RUclips without somebody being a D!c% these days. Don’t worry about peoples stupid comments if they are going to watch your channel and they’ve got something to say about it then they’ve got nothing else to do anyway. I’m watching your channel because I think this is so cool and I love your process and I love how you talk through it. There have been some other artists whove said people would complain and say you talk too much or you do this or you do that - so they need to hop off and go to another channel then. I’ve been doing this for three years and I still suck. 😅 It’s addictive and it’s fun but it’s very hard and it’s exhausting and expensive so if they have an eight-year-old who can do this then they’ve spent lots and lots of money and their kids a genius. 😂
Thanks so much! I really appreciate that. Yea, I like to talk through my videos and kinda just say whatever is on my mind, lol! Its definitely addictive! :-)
Once again, I have to tell you I love your color palette - these are all my colors. This turned out beautifully. I especially loved the black and white stripes as your base -- great idea. I was hoping you would leave that beautiful black and white circle in the middle and work around it so that would draw your eyes right to the center -- maybe next time. I hope you don't mind if I make a suggestion: you might want to think about painting your edges first so that's one less thing for you to do at the end.😊
Thanks so much Estelle! And thanks for the great advice! It was challenging trying to Keep any black and white lines. I even attempted it after but I get too carried away with the swipes, lol
Try to ignore those negative remarks - however that is probably hard to do. You are naturally talented in this fluid art form. You have a unique ease with the camera. You come across as a genuine communicator who people want to listen to. You are gonna go far in this - your love for the Art shines through! All the best, ⭐️
Well I have to coment again on the very end result , love all them peacock cells it is really eye-catching, and I think it turned out great . Plus once again I love how you go into detail on everything. Thanks for sharing.
i love this painting. so glad i happened across your channel. cant wait to see what else you have done...and as for smart asses with eight year old artistic geniuses, well tell them to get there eight year olds up and at it or shut up with their negative nancy crap.
Thnaks so much! :-) Yea, several fluid artists including myself get comments like that. I'm like "sure, have your 8-year old do it. They can also figure out how to properly prep the canvas, find the right consistencies, densities, and figure out how to mix their paints depending on which technique they are doing".
I think he should have done something to create cells on the two white spots, so the red and orange would have shown through. But the way it turned out was absolutely beautiful regardless. I really enjoy watching him. Seems like someone I’d hangout with irl
I'm sorry people have to be so negative. If you look at art hanging in the MET there are some paintings I would look at and think "I'm missing something, this seems like just paint splatter" however, there is a process. The artists energy is in the piece. I also realize that since art looks deceptively simple... I've struggled with some art styles before that look simple but aren't. Finally, if your 8 year old can do it then awesome! You have a little artist on your hands! Let them do it! You should be thanking the artist that inspired you to get your 8 year old to make art.
Thanks so much! :-) Yes, its definitely a much more complicated process than shown on video. And by all means, if an 8-year old can do it, that would be amazing!
😂bahaaa! 8 year old. Dam trolls anyway. Love the time you took with this. Not rushing is so key to your cell production as you say. Also love the tiny swipe you made to no avail. That’s me every time! I love me some bright happy colors, well done!
Gorgeous love love your artwork and your personality. I think that’s what makes the whole artwork. Amazing when people have a great personality. Thank you for sharing a wonderful day.
It's awesome and it looks like you had fun and it's great that you let us watch.I don't have any place to paint but if I did I would love to try it myself.It's great that you actually talk to us about what your doing and people can always turn off and not watch it you swear occasionally but not purposely and I try hard not to but I sometimes forget.🤗 Love it and the colours are great and I quite liked the black and white.🤗
That is so beautiful. Years ago when paint pouring came out I was negative on it because I thought it was a waste of paint and thought there was nothing to it. But I saw a painting I wanted to pour and did my research on how to do paint pouring and yes there is a lot to it not just putting paint down on a canvas. I got scared and bought everything but never tried it because of all the steps and science behind it ..
Thanks so much Denise! Yes...its way more complicated than people think and what is shown on videos. But try it out, nothing to be scared of at all, just remember to have fun with it :-)
Omg! That is gorgeous! I love this one so so much! The colors are popping hot & those cells are so awesome!! Love, love , love your work. I paint as well & I appreciate the hard work you put in on a painting & believe me it's not as easy as it looks when you are going after a certain look or technique! Or in my case a really bad perfectionist that is good at some times going to far & messing it up sometimes! & yes a small cuss word might be heard sliding out from my lips too!! 😮You are so fun to watch & listen to!! Your Awesome!! Paint on 🎨🖌️ ❤️😊👍
Thank you soooo much for the support! I'm thrilled that you love the painting and can relate to the struggles of being a perfectionist, lol. And hey, a little cuss word slipping out just adds a touch of authenticity, right? Keep watching and painting on! You're awesome too!
The haters that say their 8 year old can do it is the ones that dont understand art and what it takes.. let them be haters.. they are the ones that dont follow their passion so they put others down.. pray for them 🙏🏼
Thanks so much! Yea, I never understood why people take the time to post those kinds of deconstructive comments.
No eight year-old is ever going to do what you’ve done in this composition. I can understand constructive criticism, but not insults. Today was my first day watching you and I enjoyed every moment the cursing because that’s real your composition is fantastic and so beautiful! Thank you so much for posting and sharing.
Tammy, thanks so much! I really appreciate that! Honestly, I have a hard time not being real, lol!
Oh my it is beautiful love it love it
Or 58 year old. They make it look easy....or there is something they are holding back.
I've been doing this for a couple of years now and try and follow the directions as close as I can. I've gotten some decent results, but never anything close to this. I believe that all paint thin differently, set up differently. If I would have been messing around like he was, my paint would be already setting up. The set results I got was when they said 7-8 drops silicone I put about 20. I don't believe they are telling us every little detail.
Maybe a Very gifted eight year old, but not the average 8 year olds of nowadays LOL. They can't tie their shoes or cook a microwave burrito l o l
Don't listen to the haters, my friend and don't ever doubt you're a talented artist!
Thanks so much Michael! Yea, I try to zone them out, lol
This looks like a rainbow safari and I absolutely love it.
Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. 😊
It's giving Lisa Frank goes on safari energy. Like I see a giraffe's neck close up, bending down to drink from the watering hole amongst the zebras. Very fun to watch! And well done! Lovely piece
Haha! I love the comparison to Lisa Frank on a safari! That's definitely a unique way to describe it. I'm glad you enjoyed the video and found it fun to watch. Thanks for your comment!
Looked like a bunch of snails crossing a zebras backside in the beginning, but after being stretched, looked vibrant! Beautiful colors.
Thanks so much! Ahhhh, yes! I see that now as well! :-)
Not a criticism, just an observation. Do love the finished work!
Hi Manoli, you’re Greek so I’m I , thank you for sharing I love this painting it’s gorgeous I’ve done a few swipes and anyone says it’s easy well it’s not paint does what paint is going to do so keep creating have fun be blessed!
Efharisto Maria! Love meeting fellow Greeks. Yes...Ultimately the paints are gonna do what they want but thats one of the things I love about it.
Eye candy makes great florescent color pigments
Ahhhh yes, I have yet to work with those but I definitely plan to at some point.
@manolimotion what paint brand do you use please?
I absolutely LOVE this, the colors are perfect. Im all about the bright neon colors! For someone who says he is nervous on camera, you have a very nice calm voice.....curse words and all! I am so new to this and ive have watched many videos, with many different artist...you my friend are my favorite! keep up the good work and ignore the negative comments.
Wow! thanks so much! Yes, I tend to get nervous on camera but I'm getting more comfortable with more practice but comments like yours are what give me confidence so thank you! :-)
Wow gorgeous colors and beautiful cells amazing job ❤ thank you for sharing
Ignore the ignorant, your work is absolutely beautiful!
Thanks so much Gillian! ☺️
This was different from any other. Absolutely loved the black and white base coat and wish more of it remained. Beautiful colors and looking forward to seeing more!
Thanks so much! I think I'm gonna attempt to get more of the background to show in my next video :-)
THIS IS MY ALL TIME FAVORITE THAT IVE EVER SEEN, AND IVE SEEN HUNDREDS. I LOVE THE BLACK AND WHITE LINES, SUCH A COMBINATION.
Thank you so much Connie! I appreciate that! :-)
It would have to be an extremely gifted 8 year old and the chemistry involved NAAAAAAA!
LOL! Right!?
Oh my goodness! Never mind> I see now the beautiful effect of the black and white base.
Wow! I've done over 300 pours and I've seen more but this is my favorite ever! Your colors and style and ocdism is exactly like mine. We should do a virtual session.
Thanks so much Kristine! I really appreciate that! :-) Yes.... I would love too!
I love this technique combo with the bullseye and the swipe. I'll be trying this. Ignore negative comments...dont let anyone steal your joy!
Thanks so much Karen! Of course there will always be negative comments, lol! Definitely not stealing my joy though! :-)
The end result turned out really cool, like looking through a microscope and discovering hidden details, something organic and alive.
Thanks so much! :-)
Hi! This turned out to be really fun! I was just sad that so many of your meticulous stripes poured off!😢 But, I was thinking, what if you prepared another canvas and basecoat and as you stretched it off, you added the poured off parts to that canvas and used it for another swipe and stretch? Highlight that cool stripe again! Enjoy!
Take it my dear friend from a 71 year-old artist that art is very subjective to the person looking at it believe me not everybody thinks that looks like child’s play I don’t…… Keep your chin up and keep going. You never know what might happen to you in future!
Awww thanks so much Tricia! That’s very wise and great advice! I’m definitely gonna keep going! ❤️
So enjoyed watching you create ... I'd call it 'Zebra Chases the Rainbow'.
Haha, I love that! I definitely see a zebra in the painting as well.
I must admit, i got bored and obviously knew i didnt know a thing about what you were doing or trying to achieve.
Having watched until your final result, i find this absolutely incredible and get now why you did what you did.
Thank you for sharing your talent❤
Thanks so much! :-)
Love your Fluid art first time watching you..wont be the last 🙂
Thanks so much for the support Sharon! ☺️
I didn't read any negative comments. All I can see, is the fascinating use of colours without control, to reach an amazing result! This is WOW! Thank you very much for your Art! 👏👏👏

Can it be copied, techniques, yes. But never the same result. Paint pouring is like chaos theory in motion.
Thanks so much! And so true! Yes, fluid art can be chaotic to say the least, lol
Cells in particular can be really difficult the paint and consistency is so important . I've only had one good one and I've been trying on and off for about a year now . This piece is fantastic
Love it. I'm curious about the long, tedious black n white ring base coat. How would the finished product be different had it just been white or black? There's a couple corners that show the zebra look but was all that necessary when 90% is gone? Thanks.

Nice!
First video of yours i happened upon this morning.
I will be watching several more.
Wanted to say I love the realness while painting, i didn't mind the cursing at all. I do it all the time 🙂.
Thanks for sharing.
Haha! Thanks so much! Yea, the cursing actually helps me get through it! I struggle with having a filter but I love being transparent.
I loved how the initial fingerprint looking would begin moving. The weight of the paints colors one after another …so exciting! I couldn’t wait to see what was coming next! YEA TO YOU ❤😊
Thanks so much! I appreciate that. I also was excited to see what was coming next. You honestly never know until the end.
Clearly there were a lot of haters, and I see those comments have vanished (which is good) but what I popped into the comments to say was, as someone who'd love to do this sort of art, I like your humility with being nervous and what you aren't comfortable with. A lot of artists who talk through their videos give it too much "omg hype!" (in my opinion, great artists, just not my kinds of videos, even though I love the paintings...)... but you had a really nice energy, and created a BEAUTIFULLY vivid piece! I love the vibrancy.
Thank you so much! I really appreciate that! :-) I definitely love verbalizing my thought process throughout my videos.
This is magnificent. I had no idea how the black and white pillow would turn out. It worked beautifully. Thank you for sharing.
Haha, thanks so much! Neither did I 😃
You mentioned the music, and it was energizing in preparation for a new day as the sun was coming up, bring the day toi life, being joined by the birds and butterflies. As for the painting, I love it. This is the first demonstration I've seen by you. FORGET the naysayers!
Thanks so much Carla! I appreciate that. :-)
Beautiful painting! I found the music distracting while listening to the instruction-perhaps a lower volume so those with hearing difficulties can understand better.
This is the first painting of yours I’ve watched. Love it!
The only suggestion I have is please show us the finished/dry canvas. It would be nice to see if/how your paints move before they dry.
Thanks so much Lisa! This video is from almost a year ago. And since than and after the numerous feedback I’ve received about that, I’ve started showing the dried results at the end of each video. This painting in particular dried beautifully and I ended up varnishing it with resin. ❤️
Manoli you are the best! you will be famous one of these days!!
Haha! Well than you John! :-)
Screw the negative comments! This is absolutely one of my FAVORITE paint pours EVER!!! Love it❤️
Thank you so much! That means the world to me! :-)
Lovely piece, with gorgeous cells and lacing 🤩
Thank you Sabrina! :-)
I wasn't so crazy about it before you spread it, but the outcome is pure perfection! I am all about the color, too, and your work is amazing!
Thank you so much! Yes, with this technique, the beauty comes out after spreading
Thanks,...! Been painting all my Life, but new to fluid art,... I'm Hooked,...Amazing outcomes, and after all the prep work etc. You have a complete painting. Really like your work....All the Best...!
Thank you so much Ron! I really appreciate that! :-)
Finally an artist that talks like me. Feel like I'm in church most of the time! Beautiful . Ive done about 30 paintings since November but I'm going to try this ! haha jk
Thanks so much! I really appreciate that. Yes, give it a shot, you got this. Just remember to take your time with it and have fun! :-)
Hi. I love your painting. And to your statement NO a child can’t do this. Lol. I never give advice, I learn from these videos. I learned a lot from you.

You hit the nail on the head!!! Best advice for sure! I'm curious did you take his advice and if so how did it turn out????
Not just yet but I plan to do so 😊
I love the colors !! 😍😍
Loved it, I love colors and these are beautiful
Thanks so much 😊
Vibrant and beautiful! Very nice. As for the use of profanity, I say fuk yeah. Be authentic with your self expression in every way. 🙏
LMAO! Thanks Jack! Yes, I love being transparent.
A lot of work practice trial and errors and study and $$$ goes into paint pouring... the prep work before the pour... I love your vibrant colors... I hope your channel takes off keep making vids...😊 your piece came out amazing
Thanks so much! I really appreciate that! :-)
This is gorgeous! I had to stop using the scrapers for swipes because I kept accidentally dragging my knuckles through my paintings so I finally bought several different styles and sizes of pallet knives.
Sharp… these colors are stunning❗️
Thank you so much! You can almost never go wrong with rainbow colors!
Oh my gosh! You are great! And i love the normal banter(cursing).
Blow off rhe negative comments. You do good work. Its not easy. I get more bloopers than keepers. Lol
Thanks so much! :-) I love being transparent in my videos :-) And believe me...I still get plenty of bloopers, lol
Thanks for being real. Love the painting, love the cursing. :)
Thanks so much! :-) The foul language is part of my creative process, lol!
I'm always look at your work beautiful.
Thanks so much, I really appreciate the support! ❤️
This is great! I love it ! I don’t think the comment was any 8-year old could do it, but that no 8-year old could do it, a compliment. 😊
Thank you so much!

Hi Alison from Western Australia! Thank you so much for your kind words! Yes, theres definitely way more than people know that goes into this art. You also do beautiful workm just subscribed to your channel! :-)
@@manolimotion Awwwww, thank you so very much. that is very kind of you to say and thank you for subscribing too.💖🥰💖
Your work is amazing! I too, love the chemistry involved and the surprising results. Thanks for sharing. I really liked the last small lighter application of the white cell activator.
Thnaks so much buddy! Yea, you can almost never go wrong with white cell activator! :-)
This is my first time watching you live and hey I got a problem with the f word myself LOL and what I really love about you is you share everything the size of your canvas your colors and what brands they are and you're consistencies, I don't think there's anything you left out that like myself would be curious about or wanting to know. And I love how you talk through the whole process. A lot of artists will share so much but not in the detail that you have I appreciate that and I think your pieces turn out gorgeous. So first away I don't have a problem with it. And thanks for all the tips. And I'll be watching you more. So thanks for sharing all that you do. Be safe and well, God bless.
Thank you so much Lisa! Yes, I have a lot of thoughts during my videos and love to share, lol :-)
Great. I prefer the composition that ends up on the table.
These colors scream ME!!! Well done. ❤️
Thank you so much Mackie! ☺️
Very impressive Sir 🤙
It came out so beautiful 😍 I love the bold punch of colors! No 8yr old can do this. ❤
Thanks so much! :-)
Absolutely stunning ❤❤❤
Ok, ive been painting for a few years, and I've watched a metric asston of painting videos. This is, quite possibly, the coolest one I have ever seen! 💜
Thank you so much! :-)
Wow!!! So incredibly beautiful 😍
This turned out absolutely gorgeous! I like the black and white stripes that remained from the pillow i think you called it. I ever like the black and white bubble aeea in middle ish area but your changes turbed out beautifully too. Ive never worked in this medium myself, though im quite drawn to it having seen several of your videos and a few ither people's. I am an Artist, too, Polymer Clay, PMC - Precious Metal Clay, beading, wire work, soldering and knitting so i absolutely know no 8 year old can do this or not in the way the troll meant to hurt your feelings. I know the practice and prep that goes in to anything done so beautifully. Im very sorry that anyone would bother to troll, you don't deserve that. Im very sensitive but i hope youre able to shrug those things off. Thank you for sharing your Work, your Process and your thoughts.
Thanks so much! I really appreciate that! :-) Yea, I honestly shrug those things off. Gonna take a lot more than that to hurt my feelings. lol
Wowzers she’s so vibrant! This makes me happy 😊
Thank you Carla! Yes...she's definitely vibrant! lol
Thank you so much, just trying to get back to painting after an injury and illness. This really has me enthused
Thanks so much Donna and so happy this enthused you! I hope you have a speedy recovery. :-)
Enjoyed your video very much. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks so much Kathleen! ☺️
I wish more of the black and white was left. Would've made it more psychedelic. Love the vibrant colors.
I have to agree with Tammy! No eight year old is going to be able to do what you are doing! Im learning... i paint with acrylics all the time, but POURS are a totally different ball game. Dont be nervous. You are doing great! I am really enjoying your videos and i feel like you are showing and teaching some really nice techniques! 😊❤
Thank you so much Tonya! Much appreciated! Comments like this really help me to feel more confident! :-)
I love it. I wish I could afford to do that.
That's cool. I didn't see it comming till you tilted it. Then it came together.
It is beautiful. Reminds me of reptiles, zebra stripes and rainbows. I'd love one of these on my wall at home x
Thanks so much! Same actually, I think of an African safari when looking at this painting.
You have created an inspiring piece of work. Congratulations. I am going to try it.😊
Thanks so much Teresa and I'm so flattered this inspired you! :-) Take your time with it and have fun! :-)
NICE WORK OF ART. THANK YOU FOR SHARING.
Thank you so much! :-)
I love your work, it’s absolutely beautiful. It is a very accessible art form, but like you say… the prep and knowledge of how the paint and mediums interact takes much practice. I think you’re one of the best fluid artists on this channel… ignore the naysayers😉💕
Anne, thanks so much, I really appreciate that! Yes, definitely a lot prep and knowledge goes into this art.
Give yourself some Grace, you do phenomenal work! Honestly.
It's hard to listen when you're just experiencing and having some fun. We are ALL HUMAN. ART is ART and is meant to bring JOY, & figure out what works and what doesn't.
I hope you brought yourself smiles like you did for me tonight. The plethora of colors brought me happiness, the swipes, and the I've not ever seen the white & varied colors of Floetrol together.
👏 Job well done.💪
Thank you so much! I really appreciate that! :-) Your comment brought me joy and its comments like these that keep me going!
I will seek out other videos of yours so I can become one of your supportive fans. While i don't believe in monetary support, I can still offer up honesty and what works while you teach us what you are doing. Being an artist is vulnerable because you have to put yourself out there into the World. It can be nerve racking as everyone has an opinion and at times people can be cruel.
I truly wish you the best and enjoy the heck out of the mediums you currently are using.
I know for myself being an Artist made me feel confident and i enjoyed the challenge yet self fulfilled. When i had to stop three years ago due to health issues, it has made me very sad. Now, I am watching other's videos and learning a new hobby of pouring paint, flip cups, blooms, fluid art, etc. It's interesting to watch. I'm so drawn to color combos and color palettes, swipes.
What will you be showing us in your next video?
Thanks so much! :-) It truly is a fascinating and therapeutic form of art. It makes me very happy that you understand the vulnerability of putting ourselves out there because people can be such assholes, lol! All the techniques take practice and trial and error but its important to remember to have fun and keep in mind why you were originally drawn to this art form. Its great you're able to learn a new hobby after dealing with health issues. I work in healthcare and understand the set backs that come from health issues. Dont be sad :-) It's great you found something that you're drawn to! I just posted my last video on 06/15/24. Let me know what you think. :-)
@@manolimotionDid you get my message on your last swipe painting? I haven't heard back from you. I've been waiting for your email address so i could give you some personal information. If your not interested it's fine, just let me know. It's on okay, really.
You did it again..another georgous painting…..I love your style
I f****** love your transparency and your swears because I'm a sailor and I ( sometimes ) talk like one. F*** Yeah!!
Haha! Its so hard not to swear and I have a hard time not being transparent. Its a stress reliever for me, lol!
❤ Amazing ❤️... Great job. Thanks
Thank you so much Alexandra! :-)
Gorgeous, love the vibrant colors and the black and white. ❤
Thanks so much! :-) Vibrant colors are definitely what I go for, lol
I love the painting. I have tried the pour painting. And I absolutely love doing this. I do the smaller ones but I'm going to try a bigger canvas. I understand why you enjoy doing these painting . I love the bright colors.
Have a nice day.
Thanks so much Jill! Yes.....I definitely love doing this! Its challenging but fun! :-)
Love your painting and the music is perfect
Thanks so much! :-)
I can’t even leave a comment asking a question for a creator on RUclips without somebody being a D!c% these days. Don’t worry about peoples stupid comments if they are going to watch your channel and they’ve got something to say about it then they’ve got nothing else to do anyway. I’m watching your channel because I think this is so cool and I love your process and I love how you talk through it. There have been some other artists whove said people would complain and say you talk too much or you do this or you do that - so they need to hop off and go to another channel then. I’ve been doing this for three years and I still suck. 😅 It’s addictive and it’s fun but it’s very hard and it’s exhausting and expensive so if they have an eight-year-old who can do this then they’ve spent lots and lots of money and their kids a genius. 😂
Thanks so much! I really appreciate that. Yea, I like to talk through my videos and kinda just say whatever is on my mind, lol! Its definitely addictive! :-)
Hoy fue mi primera vez viendo su arte. Me gusta su ingenio para lograr arte muy diferente.
¡Muchas gracias Ivonne! ¡Realmente aprecio eso!
Wow this video was awsome love your designs
Thanks so much Tracy! :-)
Once again, I have to tell you I love your color palette - these are all my colors. This turned out beautifully. I especially loved the black and white stripes as your base -- great idea. I was hoping you would leave that beautiful black and white circle in the middle and work around it so that would draw your eyes right to the center -- maybe next time. I hope you don't mind if I make a suggestion: you might want to think about painting your edges first so that's one less thing for you to do at the end.😊
Thanks so much Estelle! And thanks for the great advice! It was challenging trying to
Keep any black and white lines. I even attempted it after but I get too carried away with the swipes, lol
Das ist ein MEGA schönes Bild geworden 😍! BRILLANT. Die Farbkombination 🎨 ist PERFEKT ! Ich bin echt begeistert 👏. Liebe Grüße aus Deutschland 🇩🇪
Thank you so much! :-)
Try to ignore those negative remarks - however that is probably hard to do. You are naturally talented in this fluid art form. You have a unique ease with the camera. You come across as a genuine communicator who people want to listen to.
You are gonna go far in this - your love for the Art shines through!
All the best,
⭐️
Thank you so much! That means a lot to me! :-)
🌻You Had Me At ...'More To Come'...🌻Much Love🌻
Thank you Kelli! ☺️❤️
Totally in love with the colours you've used. OMG!!!❤
Thanks so much Janelle! :-)
I like this and will subscribe. I like the music too.
Thanks so much for your support Karen! :-)
Well I have to coment again on the very end result , love all them peacock cells it is really eye-catching, and I think it turned out great . Plus once again I love how you go into detail on everything. Thanks for sharing.
1st time ever watching you, never seen how these is done before. Wow, amazing, the colors pop! I look forward to more. Thank you
Thank you so much Jessie! More coming soon :-)
i love this painting. so glad i happened across your channel. cant wait to see what else you have done...and as for smart asses with eight year old artistic geniuses, well tell them to get there eight year olds up and at it or shut up with their negative nancy crap.
Thnaks so much! :-) Yea, several fluid artists including myself get comments like that. I'm like "sure, have your 8-year old do it. They can also figure out how to properly prep the canvas, find the right consistencies, densities, and figure out how to mix their paints depending on which technique they are doing".
I think he should have done something to create cells on the two white spots, so the red and orange would have shown through. But the way it turned out was absolutely beautiful regardless. I really enjoy watching him. Seems like someone I’d hangout with irl
I'm sorry people have to be so negative. If you look at art hanging in the MET there are some paintings I would look at and think "I'm missing something, this seems like just paint splatter" however, there is a process. The artists energy is in the piece. I also realize that since art looks deceptively simple... I've struggled with some art styles before that look simple but aren't.
Finally, if your 8 year old can do it then awesome! You have a little artist on your hands! Let them do it! You should be thanking the artist that inspired you to get your 8 year old to make art.
Thanks so much! :-) Yes, its definitely a much more complicated process than shown on video. And by all means, if an 8-year old can do it, that would be amazing!
So beautiful I was saying the red kept disappearing but you did fantastic.
Thnaks so much! Yea, its hard to get that fluorescent red color to pop.
😂bahaaa! 8 year old. Dam trolls anyway. Love the time you took with this. Not rushing is so key to your cell production as you say. Also love the tiny swipe you made to no avail. That’s me every time! I love me some bright happy colors, well done!
Thank you so much Shelli! :-) Yes, it always helps to take your time with these paintings, its part of the therapeutic process for me
Gorgeous love love your artwork and your personality. I think that’s what makes the whole artwork. Amazing when people have a great personality. Thank you for sharing a wonderful day.
Thank you so much Dawn! That means a lot to me! :-)
Love this piece ❤
It's awesome and it looks like you had fun and it's great that you let us watch.I don't have any place to paint but if I did I would love to try it myself.It's great that you actually talk to us about what your doing and people can always turn off and not watch it you swear occasionally but not purposely and I try hard not to but I sometimes forget.🤗 Love it and the colours are great and I quite liked the black and white.🤗
Thanks so much Valerie! I appreciate that! Yes, it can be difficult not to swear sometimes.
That is so beautiful. Years ago when paint pouring came out I was negative on it because I thought it was a waste of paint and thought there was nothing to it. But I saw a painting I wanted to pour and did my research on how to do paint pouring and yes there is a lot to it not just putting paint down on a canvas. I got scared and bought everything but never tried it because of all the steps and science behind it ..
Thanks so much Denise! Yes...its way more complicated than people think and what is shown on videos. But try it out, nothing to be scared of at all, just remember to have fun with it :-)
Omg! That is gorgeous! I love this one so so much! The colors are popping hot & those cells are so awesome!! Love, love , love your work. I paint as well & I appreciate the hard work you put in on a painting & believe me it's not as easy as it looks when you are going after a certain look or technique! Or in my case a really bad perfectionist that is good at some times going to far & messing it up sometimes! & yes a small cuss word might be heard sliding out from my lips too!! 😮You are so fun to watch & listen to!! Your Awesome!! Paint on 🎨🖌️ ❤️😊👍
Thank you soooo much for the support! I'm thrilled that you love the painting and can relate to the struggles of being a perfectionist, lol. And hey, a little cuss word slipping out just adds a touch of authenticity, right? Keep watching and painting on! You're awesome too!
Wow I really love watching you do this painting 😊
Thanks so much Diane! :-)
