I am in awe of most of your videos, but this one “takes the cake.” Hard to realize the time it took you to do all this research and documentation. I’m impressed and I thank you!
Wow, thank you Carol. I hope it helps everyone.
Agreed!! The time it took to do all of this research blows my mind! This.... this video right here!!! Should rename this video, "cells for dummies" 😂🤣😂🤣
TOTALLY AGREE " Acrylic Pouring for Dummies" All the THE ANSWERS IN ONE video.. I AM REALLY IMPRESSED. U R SO FREAKING AMAZING! WOW!!
I agree!! I appreciate you sharing your tips and tricks! 😊
I second that comment. Thank You David!
Oh my gosh! You are amazing. I cannot believe you have done all this work and shared it for free!!!!! Thank you!!!!
You are so welcome Sherryl. Thanks for watching.
I can not wrap my head about how you do it… You always blow my mind!!! You are amazing!!!
Thank you so much Catrine. It's my math brain. Just wants to think differently about how pouring works.
This explains why you haven't shown up in my RUclips suggestions -- you've been busy!
THANK YOU FOR ALL THE HELP YOU'VE PROVIDED!💜
Happy to help my friend!
Thanks David, science matters. It really make sense. Nobody has done so much research like you. Very helpful.
I appreciate that!
OMG!!!! Brilliant!!!
You have spent so much time developing this chart!
Thank you for sharing!👍
My pleasure!
That’s a very helpful way of explaining why density makes a difference in acrylic pouring! I can’t wait to look through your chart!
Thank you so much! That chart has some technical issues I am working through so you might have to refresh to get the headers and search to work. Just FYI.
This the cake all right 😯
I'm so thankful for putting this in one place and for all your videos.
I'm blown away because your profession has nothing to do with acryl pouring.
Thank you man!!!
Most of the artist won't share their knowledge, there's always some detail missing for us amateurs
Thank you so much 😀
I really appreciate the science you bring into your videos but this one is above and beyond in terms of information! That is some amazing chart detail! Well done and thx! ❤😊
Wow, thank you Wendy.
I wish I could upvote this twice. It's amazing.
Aw thanks Rebekah. I appreciate it.
Wow David. The amount of work and effort you go to to get the information for all of us so that we can become better artists.
Thankyou so very much for all your time.
👍😍💓🥰
I appreciate that. Thanks Flora.
Thank you for the down-to-earth explanation as well as the chart. This is such an important tool!
You're very welcome Val.
Thank you again for your research and your sharing with us the information in such an easy to use form. Your teaching in your videos is so easy to follow and so logical and practical. This new tool is outstanding !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow, thank you my friend. Glad to help.
Oh WOW! Color me happy . I love these instructions from David. Going to try something today. I love this paint pouring art and the beautiful colors. Now a new tool to help me. Thanks David for your dedication to teaching us. 😁
Good luck Anne. Let me know how it goes.
I haven't started with paint pours. I am on a small budget, so am learning all I can before starting so I can get the best materials I can afford without a lot of waste. Everything I learn watching your videos gets me that much closer to being ready to start. Thank you so much!
You can do it!
Just saw this video, David. I am so grateful for your time-consuming work on this project! Thank you SO much!
My pleasure Diane. Glad to help.
Your content is invaluable to paint pouring artists like me! Thank you for taking the time to make such content!
💜
My pleasure to help Loius.
Absolute best lesson on weights, densities, oils etc, anywhere on the net!!!!! I will be sharing this video w so many people in groups so they can learn the easy way w an excellent visual like this Ive learned more from you than anyone on the net..... I also love your work
Wow, thank you Lisa!
This is tremendous and must have taken you so much time. We all benefit from the work you do for acryllic artists.
Thank you for sharing ❣️
Thank you so much!
Great great great! Your the best teacher yet for me! I’ve learned so much. Thank you😊
Glad to hlep Tammie.
I know I have told you before but you are going to hear it again 😃😃😃
You have really helped me on my pouring journey! Your videos are spot on for me. Appreciate you! Have a beautiful day!
You have a beautiful day as well Carrie. Always glad to help my friends.
Thank you for assembling all this information for us. I appreciate all the time and effort you put into helping all of us with fluid painting.
My pleasure as always Jensen.
Holy Left Brain, Batman! You were right, my mind is blown and I am SO thankful for this tool! It will take out SO MUCH guesswork and wasted product! Thanks so much!!
You're very welcome!
I really appreciate you and your efforts. Your videos are very informative.
It's just amazing how you went in did all these calculations and put this information out there for free. You easily could have charged money for a PDF of all of this and yet you did it for free. You are a gift to humanity.
It's a pleasure my friend.
What an incredibly beneficial tool. This is amazing! Thank you so much for creating this and making it available to anyone.
You're very welcome!
That's an amazing tool, David!!! Thanks!!
You're welcome Lucy.
Really makes me wonder how I do so well without ever agonizing over all of these details.
Sometimes you just have the gift my friend. That is not me for sure but I like the details.
Bravo!👏👏👏 that was amazing! And so much work on you're part. You are incredibly generous to create and share this easy to follow info! Thank you!
Thank you! 😊
You always explain things so well. Appreciate you
You are so welcome Lori.
Wow! That is a tremendous amount of work!!! Very impressive. Tons of information compiled. Absolutely amazing 👏 😍 Much much appreciated. You are an exceptionally wonderful person
Thank you so much!
Wow. This is an amazing tool!!! What a brilliant and useful idea! Thank you ❤❤❤❤
Thanks Anasta.
You are awesome David, I have learned so much from you. As always thank you for sharing.
You are very welcome Jan. Always glad to help my friends.
Very interesting. I'm glad you can do the calculations. Beyond me. 😁 Thank you David.☮️💖🎶
You are so welcome. I kind of geek out on that stuff.
You deserve so much more attention! Thank you for the kick ass video.
Thanks Natacha. Glad it was helpful.
David you are amazing!!! Thank you so much for the information. Love from Australia 🇦🇺
My pleasure Sure. Thanks for watching.
BRILLIANT! Thank you for sharing all your very thorough research!
Glad it was helpful Lauren.
Boom! Finally I have my ah ha moment. I can’t thank you enough.
Love those moments 💡. Glad to help Diana.
OMG YOU ARE AN ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE PERSON!!!!!!! I have literally been attempting to figure out paint density to no avail for over a year!!!!! And here you are, an absolute legend, with a frickin chart to save my life!!! THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!
Oh wow. Glad to help out a friend Heather. I’m sure I’ll be making tweaks to it as people use it more and I had new paint but for right now I’ve tested a bunch and it’s pretty accurate.
@@LeftBrainedArtist I don’t know how it all works on the spreadsheet on your site. But is it possible to print it at all. I want to start cataloging the paints I have and their characteristics even if I can get online at the moment of cataloging.
@@DruidianKA11 I haven't made that option available to make it harder for people to copy and put up their own page with the data. I might reconsider that later but for now there is no download option.
@@LeftBrainedArtist I completely understand. No worries I was just hoping to save myself some time. But not an issue at all!! I am so so pleased with what you’ve allowed us access to and how thorough you are in everything you do! You’re awesome!! Thank you.
So agree
Wow! What a great experiment with the visual effect of seeing it through the glass!! 👏👏 That made so much sense now that I could "see" it happening!
You are so knowledgeable, have great critical thinking skills, and you are so kind to share your knowledge and experiences with us!
Thank you!
Thanks so much Trina. Glad to help my friends.
You are awesome. Your demonstration explained so much. Thank you for this great tool. The search ability is very helpful. I have struggled trying to understand why I get cells sometimes and other times not at all. I appreciate all the work you do to give this out freely to help others❤️
Always a pleasure.
You are amazing!!! Thank you so much for making this process so much easier and so much more fun!
You are so welcome Katherine.
I love your videos They are super helpful
TYVM!
Another awesome video of information. Thanks for putting all the work into the chart.
My pleasure! I did coerce my 17 year old to help me do some data entry at a nominal fee. 8)
Wow...thanks for putting so much effort into creating this incredible tool. You are awesome!
My pleasure Carrie. Glad to help.
Wow! Very informative. My head hurts now. In a good way. This explains so much about why some of my paintings went so wrong.
Fantastic to hear Beckey. I love when something gets my brain churning like that.
Thank you Thank you Thank you. This had to be a huge undertaking. I really appreciate everything you do 💞
It really is my pleasure Carla. I had to do it for me and it didn't make sense to hide it away.
Thanks for your dedication to this medium!
More like curiosity I can't contain but I am glad it is helpful to others.
Thanks for this. I don't like using silicone but love cool cells. The chart is so nerdy, I LOVE IT 💕💕
You’re welcome Tracy. The cells are different without silicone but I think they are equally as beautiful.
Just the video I’ve been looking for as I begin my pouring journey. Density chart bookmarked. Thank you!!
Glad it was helpful!
What I like the best about your beginning videos is when you make a mistake you show us how to correct them.
I appreciate that! Thanks for watching. I'll make sure I keep including those in my videos.
Yep👍
Thank you for this video & the paint density tool. This is hugely helpful to a total beginner.
You are so welcome!
Thank you so much for doing this!! You've been busy!! I was looking for specific paint's density and there it was on your chart. You do so much for artists, for that I appreciate you so much! Looking forward to using this chart again.
You are so welcome Joey. Glad to help.
Thanks for giving us a resource of helpful info.
It's my pleasure Patricia.
Excellent demo and chart! Thank you!
Glad it helped!
Forgot to say I enjoyed watching you do the experiment. Like a little lava lamp. I was hoping you would shake it.☮️💖🎶
I did shake it the first time I did it. It was so murky you couldn't see the interactions though. Putting some dish soap in and then shaking also made some crazy stuff happen.
Kudos to you for being so generous with your knowledge and paint pouring experiences! Thanks!
Thanks Barbara. Glad to help.
I learn something new from your channel every week!!! I check out your website often too. There is always something I need to figure out and you most often have the answer. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. I understand now why sometimes my paintings go a little crazy. 🤪 I will definitely use your chart. 👍
Awesome! Thank you Sandy. So glad it is so helpful.
Awesome! Thank you so much for sharing all your thoroghly work! Very much appreciated :)
Glad to help.
Genuis tool! Very much appreciated!
Glad it helped Mark.
There's no words to express how brilliant your research and information are. I made my first pour yesterday, after studying a lot of your videos and my main issue points (aside from a hair drier that wasn't strong enough) were all to do with paint density, and my white that sank to the bottom, like one of your other videos. I will most definitely be using your chart for every future painting I do, because it's stuff like that which really gives you the cutting edge of the mechanics behind every composition. Looking very much forward to the demo video of the chart, and seeing how to alter paint density to achieve more control! 🔬♥
Thanks Nona. Paint has a mind of it's own but there are a few things we can do to help nudge it in the direction we want.
Thanks so much for making your reference page for us! That's valuable info and is much appreciated.
Glad it was helpful!
David, you are absolutely incredible! Thank you very much for your very helpfull clues and suggestions to improve our/my pours. I appreciate it very much!
Wow, thank you Rosy.
Nice one,thanks for all the hard work!!!
My pleasure!
You are too cute. I get such a kick out of you. You "make" me use science instead of my usual right-brained wing-y-ness which wastes a ton of paint. Thank you for breaking down everything for us unscientific types ;-).
My pleasure. Glad to help my friends.
Wauw David this video is awesome!!! You will help a lot of beginning artists with this one! I can’t imagine how many hours it took you to complete that tool 😱 I am speechless ❤️👍💯
Thanks Anais. I am glad to help.
Thank you. Getting back into flip cup pours and watched that video and then this one. Very informative. Thank you!
You are so welcome!
Thank you dear David, I'm just starting out, your videos are so informative, much appreciation.
Best of luck!
Thank you so much for this. Such a crucial info for successful pours. I really appreciate the work you have put in and are giving us this info for free.
Thank you so much Beverley. Doesn't make sense to put something like this behind a paywall.
Allways good explain❤
Thank you again
Amazing, thank you so much. Great teacher.
Glad to help Leara.
This is an awesome and help video. Your always so helpful with pour painting. 😍🤩🤩😍
Thanks for continuing to watch Amy.
This is fabulous! Thank you!

Absolutely helpful tutorial video. Many thanks for sharing your experiences 👍🏻⭐️🙂
My pleasure. Glad to help.
Amazing job, really I’m in awe!
Thanks so much Emmanuelle
Thank you for all you do.
You are so welcome Julie. Glad to help.
Great tutorial, thanks
Glad you liked it Marj.
Awesome video! Thanks so much for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
You are so amazing I thank you from the bottom of my heart David this is one of the issues..Thank you ‼️‼️‼️‼️
Glad to help Carolyn. This is really important to understand for pouring.
Thank you so much for explaining this so well!!
It took me a while to really grasp it so I thought others might be having the same problem.
Thank you very much for doing this. It will help me immensely! It's the one thing I spend a ton of time trying to figure out. ,💜
Glad it helped Laura.
Wow just wow! Thank you!
So glad it was helpful Robin.
I love the way you teach! You’re helping this right-brain gal develop analytical and critical-thinking skills that improve my pieces without excessive numbers and rules. In other words, I can have a ton of fun and get reliable results most of the time without feeling pinched by too much structure. You help me keep the fluid in fluid art.Thank you. 💜
So glad to help Sue. Thanks for watching.
Me too in being right-brained gal; not so scientifically blessed (understatement!). I love how I can learn how science of mixing right type paints will, for instance, create cells even w/o silicone.
My problem is that I ficus & it all makes sense...until the end. When I try to put it in my own words for notes, or recall what ya' said -- it's all "jumbly" in my head. I hate that!
What I got (now) to recall upon trying is just:
"Heavy paints go down & light paints go up...then magic happens & cells show up!"
Sonehow, I think I missed sonething!?!
@@SnarkasticSunny If you do heavy paints on the bottom you need to do a flip cup so the heavy paints end up on top.
@@SnarkasticSunny Lol, I agree! It's like it starts to make sense, then it doesn't, then it does. 🤣🤣
I think it's just one of those things that some of us have watch several times, then try it, then watch it again! Lol
Happy Pouring!
Thank you so much for the time and effort put into this.!!!
My pleasure Bonnie.
Fascinating information! Thank you so much!
Glad it was helpful Geoff.
Finally I get it - thanks so much
Awesome to hear Stephanie.
Bravo, real good job 👍🏼👍🏼that's what I was looking for.
Thank u.
Glad I could help
Wow you really are one of the best thank you 🙏 so much
You’re welcome Josh. Thanks so much for watching.
Félicitation pour ce travail qui a du vous prendre beaucoup de temps. Bravo et merci 🙏
Merci beaucoup.
Thank you for this video and for the Acrylic Paint Density chart. You did so much work! I was surprised that even the Dutch brands that I use are in the chart. And looking at the densities answered a question that I had. I now understand why colors sometimes disappear in my paintings. It's because of the light density of my base paint (Talens Art Creation Ivory Black). A very useful video, thank you!
Glad to help. Just keep in mind that density controls movement of paint BUT cells have the added issue where the quality of the paint, the sheen, and the fillers that the brand uses can increase or decrease cells. That it why amsterdam paint cell way better than other brands. Those other factors AND the density.
I'd give anything to see your art
One day I'll have a store but for now any of my videos or blog posts show my art.
Wonderful! Thank you!
Glad to help Lisa. Thanks for watching.
Interesting and helpful info. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful Joie.
That's Amazing!!!! 🤯 Good on you man.
I knew something like this would be done eventually but wow im impressed, you should be very proud of this. An incredible tool I'm definitely going to be using!!
Mahalo 🤙
Thanks so much.
OMG thank you!!!! Light bulb moment!!! 😁😁😁
You’re welcome. Love 💡 🌩 moments.
@@LeftBrainedArtist kinda like those happy accidents we wish we could recreate 🤣😂
Very interesting. 🎶💞🎶
Thanks Jan. The science behind pouring is fascinating.
Wow this had to take alot of time, thank you
No problem! This is how I learn so why not bring everyone else along?
This video is very helpful to ppl like myself as found out the hard way black & white are heavy & know now yellow has can be & will use this chart! Ty.
Glad to help Paula. Have a good weekend.
This is awesome info!!! Thank you so much for that very useful tool!!
You are so welcome!
Very helpful! Thank u so much 😊
You're welcome Halyey 😊
??? Question???
Have you ever done a video on making fractal/dendrite art? I only discovered this form of painting yesterday and I'm enthralled by it!
+++++++++++++++++++
I love all your instructional videos and have learned so much from you- thank you for taking the time and effort to help- you're appreciated more than you know! 😊😁👍✌🤟
Not yet! I need to do some soon though.
What is dendrite art? I never heard of that B4?
