- 9 Tips and tricks for dot mandala painting for beginners. A must watch Dot Mandala Master class.
Dot painting is an art form in which beautiful designs and mandalas are created using dotting tools and acrylic paints.
Hello everyone!
Welcome to kraftaria. My name is sarika and today I am going to tell you all about dot painting. I am not an expert. I just love making dot mandalas. And from my experience and trial and run I would like to share these tips and tricks.
I started dot painting around 4 years ago. Actually I saw @elspeth Maclean’s work on internet and saw her videos on RUclips. As I am always keen of learning new things, I tried my hands in it and I absolutely loved it. Since then there was no going back. I learned by just trying and experimenting. Actually this art is very easy to learn. You just need interest and patience and you can be good at it in no time.
So in today’s video I will cover all the doubts and questions that people ask me. If you haven’t subscribed to my channel yet please go ahead and press that button.

Thank very much Sarika for this most important topic I really need to know...especially paint consistency!! Some paints I've purchased are quite thick and even when I add the acrylic medium, its still not the right one as you showed in your video!! Is there a ratio of medium and paint that I should follow? Thank you so much for your reply❤💕🌹
@@KraftariabySarika Thank you so much!!!!. I'll definitely try this method and try to see if I could get it to the consistency of pancake batter. Probably, I'm just not doing it right! A video on this subject is highly appreciated!😊😊

Welcome
Hey such an amazing tips. Can u tell me how u seal ur work on cycle?
Thank you so much for making this video and helping us all out! I've just discovered your channel, and am so grateful for it. It's so inspiring and helpful. I'm just starting out, and can't really afford pouring medium right now. Are there any alternatives? Also, if possible, please do show us how to prepare the canvas or background? Thank you again!
Welcome.
You can dilute the paint with water if paint is too thick.
There are many videos on my channel where I have shown how to prepare the canvas.
Thanks for your useful video. I'm learning this art late in life and I love it. If only my hands would stop shaking I think I can learn. In the meantime I will continue learning at "RUclips University and everything will be OK. Thanks again and God bless you!
Thank you 🙏🏻
Thanks for the detailed explanation. I want to use Flash acrylic colours on glass, how do I seal them - in the oven or use epoxy over the painting.
It’s good to bake it.
I think I prefer my paint to be a little thinner to you. Also I just use water to thin them. Also instead of using a stencil you could just use a ruler and compass and white charcoal pencil and draw lines, although I do like the way you showed to make a simple stencil just with paper. For dotting tools I use about 10 crochet hooks of different sizes that have flat ends, plus a pencil and two bits of dowel and a lip balm stick lid for the biggest circle. I've seen people hot-glue a small coin to a stick for a big circle.
Good to know about your style. Happy dotting. Thank you 😊
Thanks a lot for this video Sarika... this was very very helpful.
I have a question please - what to use to make guidelines (or design itself). And how to erase those marks at the end?
Hope to get your reply.
Thanks again!
you can use any normal eraser. if the marks still doesn’t go you can paint on top of the lines again with the base colour with thin brush.
Please show how to make cone and which thickness of paint for cone
You can watch this video ruclips.net/video/azkpTON1T_A/видео.html
I'm loving your videos! Thank you for sharing your gifts! My question is, what is the thinnest tool that you use for the swooshes? Does the typical smallest pink tool work or is that ceramic tool I have seen you use work best? Thank you! Kiki :-)
Thank you for your kind words. I feel that thin needle tool works best for dragging the dots and making it in any shape. You can use a thin sewing needle or a pin and tape it on a toothpick. That homemade tool also works great.
Perfect! Thank you!
May I continue to pick your brain? What sealant do you use on coffee mugs? Is it still safe for the microwave or dishwasher? Do you put the sealant only on the outside so it isn't actually inside the mug?
Your all questions are answered in this video. Personally I don’t feel like washing the dot painted mugs in dish washer. They can be easily washed with hands.ruclips.net/video/dC81cOWkS8k/видео.html
Thank you for this so much, really beautiful work and answered questions I didn't even know I had, I would only ask that you add a CC track, my hearing has aged along with me and with your beautiful accent makes it hard to be sure I am understanding you completely, I really appreciate you doing this very helpful video
Thank you 😊
Flash colors are good fr dot work..., its long lasting?
Yes
Very informative video....thanks.....can u tell me how to get acrylic artistic colour thinner....as my colour become little thicker so I can't make dots properly
I have told in the video that you have to mix pouring medium in the paints to make them thin. Link is also given in the description of the video.
Can we use normal acrylic paint or i have to mix something to make it thin..?
Normal acrylic paints and mix pouring medium to make it thin. Watch this video for all basic questions ruclips.net/video/K8dybiQQ6pY/видео.html
Thank you for sharing. Is there anything needed to paint on ceramic mugs in order for the paint to not wash off?
this video might help you. ruclips.net/video/dC81cOWkS8k/видео.html
@@KraftariabySarika Thank you, from South Africa.
😊
What is the tool looking like a big marker, which you use in the beginning of part 5? (violet color)
you can use any round object for making dots.
Is it important to varnish it if we are doing on paper ??
Varnish is not necessary on paper
Can we use water colour
You can do it on paper for practice but you won’t get the finishing and texture of dot painting with watercolour.
Hey Sarika, can you please help me find your video on how to resin the painted stones?
I have not made a video on how to resin the stone.
In this video I have shown how to resin a dot painting. ruclips.net/video/mzKy3tuaF50/видео.html
What is shafting tools that you used in the video
Other than dotting tool
its a clay molding tool.
I m Madhu i want to know about board mai mandala art aur warli art banane se pahle board pr kya lagate h aur uske baad hi paint use krte h per kaise explain about board first time I would like to make this mandala art becouse i have seen printest and RUclips channel i like too much , may I know your no if you don't mind becouse i want to know about board first i have taken 2MDF boards ihave no idea about board starting first what I do in board explain and give good suggestion for me
i have explained it in this video. ruclips.net/video/D9ZxFg3h4MI/видео.html
Can you please please give the link of the FLASH PAINTS that YOU ARE USING
It’s given in the description
Is the tubes costly
Is it ok to to use acrylic emulsion instead of medium? Does the acrylic paint peel off of the mugs?
Emulsion paint should be good. If the paint is dried properly and cured in oven it doesn’t peel off.
I can’t make swooshes properly
May I use needle to drag dots,can it works or any tool which help to make swooshes?
