    Louise, this is the first video I’ve seen where someone explains the paints. It’s so clear now. Thank you! And of course, your lazy Susan is gorgeous… they all are gorgeous and can see why you can’t keep your art in stock!

      Hi Lauren, 😘I’m so glad I took the time to share this as I haven’t taken much time getting to the basic level. The only reason why I brought it up is because I had several people in the last couple months. Tell me they were following my recipe, but their paints were returning pastel so I knew they weren’t really, so I figured I better just put out an all points broadcast to everybody explaining how the pouring medium works and what paint you have to use. So glad it’s helpful!!!♥️♥️♥️

    Louise, you have such a knack for digging into your way of building your paintings. Your voice over's are great, especially when you are knowing, when to add reference to how and why you are doing what you are doing, from what paint we should use to get the results you are getting. I love your ability to go back, and remember something you maybe thought of, to explain to us now, so we get the same or even better results 🤗☺❤ Love this one so much!!

    • @LouiseMcKayArt
      @LouiseMcKayArt  17 дней назад +1

      Thanks so much, 😘😘Jude. It was at the last minute I decided to add all the voiceovering about the paints and the mixtures in which paints to use because recently I’ve had several people tell me they’ve been following my recipe, but they’ve been getting pastel and washed out colors And I’m thinking to myself. There’s no way you’re following my recipe if you’re getting that result. So I decided I better say something and in fact, there was one person that wrote from this creation how they had the same problem and it turned out that when Home Depot sent them the paint they sent them the wrong paint. So I’m glad I said something and hopefully save other people more problems. Sometimes when you’ve done things for so long, you forget to cover the foundation, and that’s a little bit what today was. Thank you so much Jude for being here again.🖤🧡

    What a coincidence! I was just mixing paints for a pour, and they were all fading out. Getting frustrated, I was just taking a break and saw this video become available and you solved my problem immediately! I just checked my paint for the pouring medium and it is not what I ordered! The local Home Depot will not let you order or ship a base paint online… You have to go get it. Although I ordered the 6413N, they shipped me 6411, so I’ll be calling them about a refund. Just picked up the right base and will try again. Thank you so much for going back over this… The recipes have been the hardest part of getting started with all of this.

    • @LouiseMcKayArt
      @LouiseMcKayArt  8 дней назад +2

      Hi Boston butter, 😘these are definitely functional as a Lazy Susan. These are not intended to be used as cutting boards and you wouldn’t want to cut on them anyway because it’s resin and it would get ruined. That’s why I also made cutting boards have a partial decorative area with fluid art that is resined and also a wood portion that is unencumbered.

    • @LouiseMcKayArt
      @LouiseMcKayArt  19 дней назад +2

      NOOOOO, never shake it!!!!! Never shake anything, gently stir. And actually, once I have my pillow paint, decanted, I don’t ever stir it again, I use it up before I need to reconstitute. The less stirring or mixing the better. And certainly never ever ever ever ever shake. You will never get the bubble out of the pillow.
