    Also love the sound of your true "works of art" in the background. Wished for more product information, (softening brush? and "open time?) not to mention the red blood cosmo recipe. Inspired by your fearless technique ... will go to your blog to know what I don't know. Go Mama DaVinci !!!

I have a round table similar in diameter and I was looking to do marbling on it but I was looking for this same type of marbling. all the other videos that I have seen so far were tans and browns and though they are gorgeous, they were not what I wanted. But this is! Thank you!

    @jenjen7594 9 лет назад

    Thanks for this. I am going to re-do a cultured marble bathroom vanity and was looking for a more subtle finish than the dark highly contrasted finish techniques that are out there. This will be perfect! Do you know if I can incorporate some of the latex paint (in the color of the bathroom) into the veins? Would latex work alongside the acrylic? I would like to try the Envirotex lite coating.

    This is the best marbling art work I have seen on youtube. You really know what you are doing. I am excited to try this on my table and countertops. My question is...when you say use acrylic and polyurethane and acrylic, so it doesn't yellow, what is that exact step. Did you mix them and then brush it on or did you do them separately? Also what kind of acrylic and polyurethane did you use?

    Hi I have been watching your video over and over again . That is so cleverand beautiful!!! also searching for something else that would work for my kitchen project i am planning to do. I have a question about base coats and top coats. First as a base you did use a Xim primer and than again kiltz? And for ty he top coat you said to put polyurethane with acril. You mix them or put one after another.

    Where does one find a softening brush as you use? I have tried at my local arts and craft stores, but my town I so small we don't have a Hobby Lobby or Michael's. None of the places I have tried even knew about such a brush.
