It would be really cool if you got a fake plant with big leaves and painted all the leaves on the plant, it could also be decore for your art room! Ps. Love your vids! Hope your doing well! ❤❤❤😊
I paint leaves all the time and highly suggest pressing them to dry for at least a week if they dont get dried before painting they tend to curl and crack (I speed up the prosses by pressing them between printer paper and ironing them on a low heat) also helps if you dont dry them first to press them in a picture frame to keep them flat as they slowly dry over time
2:49 Marissa! Tell me, PLEASE, why have I never thought to do this!?!? This is an amazing idea! Everytime I pull out my acrylic paints, I don't enjoy the process because I'm having to look through them to see what the color is. I've seen this before but I don't know why I didn't think to do it to my own paints! 😂
You should paint on rocks/pebbles or seashells! I’m also curious to see how the leaves look now as sometimes the moisture will seep through and go mouldy LOL anyways amazing video Marissa pastel 💙
Hi Bellamena I love you and your videos❤ you are so amazing and talented, this is an amazing idea when you get bored tysm for the idea if I get bored I will try this 😊❤❤❤❤
2:13 Hi! So basically Gesso is a mixture of glue and chalk, so not at all the same as acrylic paint. It’s made of glue so it sticks better to the surface AND to the paint, creating a strong bond between the two. On the other hand, acrylic paint is basically a colored plastic, and plastic peels off eventually when fully dry - exactly what happened later when you cleaned your paint palette - I hope this makes sense
If you store your paint bottles upside-down it keeps them from developing "clots" or "skins" on the top because no air can get in. Also you can see what color they are through the bottom of the bottle! You're welcome ☺️
The difference between gesso and acrylic white paint is that gesso leaves the thing you are painting with a ruffer surface, so the paint will stick better and you will not need so many coats, if the thing you are painting is absorbing the paint... Because the thing you paint that absorbs paint, will absorb the white paint, but gesso kind of make a barrier between the item and the next layer of paint🥰
I feel like that first little leaf fish should be called Joon 😂 he can have the other baby fish as his son, maybe we can make a whole family of fishes! The leaf fishes! 🍃🐟
You should’ve cut a circle into one of the leaves and painted a caterpillar on it as if he ate a chunk out of the leave like the book “the hungry caterpillar “ that’d be dope
You and Mariah are so suspicious of Gesso 😂 It really depends on what your using it on too. It's not a miracle worker though. Some things just don't want paint on them lol
@@bellamena omg hi I am 11 and looooooooooooooove watching you soooooooooo much and am a HUGE fan and love ur vids can u tell Moriah that Norah said hi pls

A round of applause for marissa finally buying gesso 👏🏻 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻the leaves turned out cute btw
😆😆I knew we'd get there eventually!! All it took was a Michael's gift card 😂😂
I'd love to see an update of how these age with the moisture trapped in there. Super curious of how they'll look

I love the internet specifically because you can just find out so much from random people. Thank you
Honestly... I'm assuming they'll crumble 😂😂

Fun! I think your favorite leaf is from a lilac bush, and the "thick" one was from a rhododendron =) The rest, no idea, lol
Brilliant video, as always, and I can't decide which lead I like more! 😍
Thanks Zoe!!
Me and my dirty mind on the last leaf... still cute tho!

That fish looks so cool 😍 and a little creepy 😂
Hahahah accurate
Your videos are amazing!
Thanks!!
Leaves of three let them be. Yes that helps a lot!
Oxyclean really help clean acrylic paint off palettes

My favorite leaf is the rainbow
I feel like that first little leaf fish should be called Joon 😂 he can have the other baby fish as his son, maybe we can make a whole family of fishes! The leaf fishes! 🍃🐟
You accidently did the nonbinary colors for the first leaf 💛🤍💜🖤 love it lol 🖤
1:55 😂😂😂😂😂
Are you gonna dip the leaves in resin so they can be better preserved?
I dont own resin hahaaha so probably not! We'll see how they age.. I'm assuming they'll crumble 😂
@Bellamena if you ever do get into resin wear gloves. Don't do like I did the first time 🤣
Okay this is the oddest video you’ve made 😂😂 glad you didn’t grab anything poisonous.
Gesso has like a chalk dust in it to help the paint stick to it - I believe
Plaster and chalk mixed but yes ☺️

good job Bellamena
Thanks!!
Pirates booty? I've never heard of that.

Thanks!!

I learned about you from Moriah. Also congratulations on the baby
Rainbow looks um.... questionable 👀
I just want to crush the daddy clown fish in my hands.. I feel like that would be incredibly satisfying! But alas modern art is not to be touched 🙁
Ahhh I also want to crush the clown fish!! But I also dont wanna ruinnnn it😂
The first one looked like a whisteria "tree"
😄
Gesso is different from acrylic pan because it has plaster in it
