Your scales are just incredible. Sorry about all the problems with the blooms. Great color combination. Thank you so much for sharing.
Thanks so much Claudia! I have the blooms finally figured out but i wanted to give the varnish one last try…and now im done! 😂❤️☺️🙏🏻
Thanks so much Tara for recommending that hair dryer, I love it. Perfect size. You rock lady! Beautiful pieces per usual.
💙🩵💙
Thank you my dear! It’s a great dryer right?! 🙏🏻☺️❤️
Your scales are perfect, wow! Great color palette!
Aww! Thanks Christina! I hope you are doing well! ❤️
Great teaching video, lady! Thanks for sharing!! 😘And the piece turned out beautifully with your texture!! 😍
Of course! Thanks for watching my friend! ❤️
Love the texture shells they are an amazing addition.
Thank you so much! They take some time but they are really relaxing to do! ❤️🙏🏻☺️
Holy cow! That’s really something!!!
✌️💜😊
@@deelorenzetti7766 Thanks Dee! ❤️
I think adding the black to the Payne’s Gray is really great!
Thanks Janice! ❤️
I had a problem with melty cells last summer, and I concluded that because I was near the end of my boring medium batch. I probably hadn’t fully started up as I was using it and by the time I got to the bottom, it was more of the varnish unless the Valspar I use. So number one I always mix my PM really thoroughly and when I get to the bottom, I even will add a little extra Valspar to the mixture to counteract any extra varnish that might be in there. I think bottom line it happens when there’s too much varnishedto paint ratio.
Yes that could very well have been the issue! That varnish can be trickie! Especially with valspar since it is already thin. ☺️❤️
Beautiful colors! I love the texture!
Thanks so much Debbie! ❤️☺️🙏🏻
Amazing outcome, I love it. Hope to see you in Dallas!!
Thanks Bill! I hope you can make it! 🙏🏻☺️❤️
I love the way that this piece turned out! It was a happy accident... even though it probably didn't feel that way when you were creating it😏. I love the flow and movement in your scales! It really is like a whole new look because of the flow. Very cool, Tara!😊🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞
Thank you so much my dear friend! I love happy accidents! ❤️☺️🙏🏻
Love love love your explanations
@@johannebrun3409 Thanks Johanne! That means a little to me! ❤️☺️🙏🏻
@@PiecesofTaraArtistry as long as it only means a little
@@johannebrun3409 lol!!! 😂 I meant a lot! Stupid predictive text!!! 😂😂
Your videos are so informative. This really is pretty. ❤❤❤
I’m so glad that they are helpful. I appreciate your support Carol!! Can’t wait to see you in Dallas! ☺️🙏🏻❤️
Yes, it turned out great with the dragon scales ! Gotta love it when they change their paint recipes , it screws everything up! Throw the straw tube out lol
lol! Seriously!!! I don’t know why I even keep it! I hate the way the cells look when I use it EVERY…SINGLE…TIME! 🤦🏻♀️😂❤️
Hello Tara, I really enjoyed the video. I love the colors.
Thanks girl! ❤️
Oh that stupid straw😅😅😅. Tara, I don't like to use varnish because of the melting look. Put I use a tiny bit to mix the pigments only. I do use tube colors in between a few pigments because I feel it helps keep cell shape. Gosh, I wish I could be there in your next class. If I can't, I wish you the best. You are an amazing instructor. Love you❤❤❤
@@OAKbyBetina lol! Yea that stupid straw! 😂😂😂 I can’t even use varnish in my pigments. It’s terrible! I use gac 100 though to wet them so at least I have that! Like you I use tubes in between to and that helps. I will be in Dallas next so I really hope to see you there! Otherwise maybe the next one! Much love girl! ❤️❤️❤️
This is very pretty. Have you tried the textured part in colors? I love your textured work. Thank you for all the explanations in this video. Thank you! 🤗💐
@@Kathy-Carr Thanks Kathy! Stay tuned you will see a colored texture soon. ☺️ ❤️🙏🏻
I just found your channel and started following you, and Boy am I glad I did! You do such a thorough job of explaining your processes and recipes and all the nuances. Thank you! Have you ever used Modern Masters Metallics to get pearls? I wanted to try to replicate one of your pearl/modeling paste paintings, but instead of Obsidian and black, I wanted to try Modern Masters Emerald as the base and maybe gold on top. Would Modern Masters Metallics react the same way as DecoArt Extreme Sheen Obsidian? Thank you again!!
Thank you so much Kathryn! So I’m not sure how the MM would work in the basecoat. It would probably work as your pour over colors but you would have to test that out. I have never used them as a base color and I have never used the emerald specifically. Each paint is different and even a different color within the same paint line may react totally different than other colors. You would just have to test it out to know for sure. I’m sorry I couldn’t be more help! ❤️☺️🙏🏻
It's so funny that a lot of people are having trouble at the moment. Do you think the summer and your humidity level has anything to do with the varnish melting?
Hey Jess! Sooo…this has been an ongoing problem for me for about a year and 1/2. It doesn’t matter the time of year get melty cells. I think part of it is the pouring medium I use is thin (Valspar) and varnish thins it even more so I get melts. I am starting to get to think Valspar and varnish just don’t play well together. That’s why I’m so happy to have found the dynasty because it thickens my pm. I find if I don’t use varnish even with the thin pm the cells don’t melt. I’m not exactly sure what the problem is but it’s awfully frustrating. As I know it’s frustrating for you!
@@PiecesofTaraArtistry Frustrating is an understatement. I was very scared when 2 out of two cans of dynasty were totally different the pink tone is gone and it's thinner. I'm waiting for my Home Depot to get a new batch delivered. I love the way your cells look with you new pm.
Tara you need to get an.oukiner like I have one in gold and silver if I have something I am not crazy about I can hand draw or stencil something.
Just another thing I do
Thanks Carolyn! I actually have those…I’m sure I will try them out one day!
😍
❤️
I love this! Where did you find that glass palette? Thanks🩷
Thanks so much Leesah! I got it at Michael’s! ❤️🙏🏻☺️
@@PiecesofTaraArtistry Great, thanks!
