OMGSH thank you so much!! This was a perfect, simple, super helpful explanation! I appreciate it so much!! This will help me so much, as I just started pouring a few weeks ago! Very valuable information, thank you!
OMG....finally a tutorial that is easy to follow and simple on paint consistency...... Thanks so much... 👍😊
I thoroughly agree. I actually understood it. Thanx Gina
I can't get over how much there is to learn. This was a terrific lesson, very much appreciated.
I have this video open and playing each time I’m mixing! Thanks so much for taking the time to make this vid! I was so sick of the warm honey, thick cream videos 🤫. Take care and stay safe!!!
I cannot tell you how much I appreciate this particular tutorial except to tell you I really appreciate this tutorial on consistencies of paints.
The BEST consistency video ever. Love that you used a color where you can really see the consistency. Also liked that you explained for each consistency which technique it can be used for! Thank you so much. I appreciate you taking the time to teach newbie’s like me.
My pleasure. Glad it was helpful!
Gina, you were one of the first artists I watched, and I have come to love this style of art....so thank you. The consistency problem is something I have struggled with too, but your video Along with Tammy Anderson's video (on mixing all colours first, adding floetrol, at ratio of 1:2, then matching all colours to the thinnest paint consistency) have added a wealth of knowledge and at the same time simplicity in solving this issue. A thousand thank yous. Hope your music is going well for you. 😁💐
Gina, this is the best instruction I’ve ever seen. Thank you so much!!
Perfectly explained! Thanks for the shout out too 😉
Well worth the rewatch I just did!
This is great! Thank for taking the time and effort to show the different consistencies and what can be obtained. Fantastic tutorial ❤️❤️❤️
Paint pouring is just as much of a science as it is an art.... It is definitely not as easy as you would think it would be, so thank you for your awesome instruction! I keep trying...I think I have only done one or two paintings that I would actually hang in my house, lol.
This has been the best video to explain what I need.
Thank you so much for this! I have been so confused on consistency, what it means and different consistencies for different techniques. It’s all here, so I made notes. Great close ups of each cup so I can see what it looks like. This morning I did the best I have done in 3 months since I began. HopeI am on a roll. 🤞
You are a brilliant teacher
A fabulous artist
A great inspirer..
And a very cool singer
Just wow
So thrilled to see this tutorial, so scientific and undetstandable
.🎉 ❤ 😊
Yay you
I constantly go back to this consistency video to refresh my brain and get back to basics-- Thank you for this not only did you describe consistency but what techniques to use with what consistency level- this has prevent a lot of mess ups for me and is my go to video for planning my next pour painting.. Thank you again Gina! And your warm honey intro had me cracking up-- I was Definitely one of the warm honey researchers too lol 😆
Thank you so much for this explanation as to what consistencies work for different techniques. This will definitely be beneficial to so many.
You are so great at teaching. Thank you for being here.
Got mine last week. The cards are so nice. I haven't started using them yet. I have a paint and sip party coming up and this will help the ladies.
Thank you Gina, I love this tutorial about paint consistency.
Great information Gina. You are the best teacher. concise and straight forward. Thank you
Great tutorial, Gina! Once again you have imparted valuable information that is so helpful. Many thanks! Be well.
Thank you thank you. I watch a lot of your videos and have learned a lot from your technique and methods. Consistency has proven to be my biggest problem.
This was so helpful Gina, Thank you! Good color choice to show the consistency....💜😊🤗😙🥰😍
Great video Gina! So helpful to be able to see the differences in consistency next to each other!
Personally I like fat paint lol I'm a 4 or a 5 girl for consistency 😂 I do add Liquitex Gloss Medium & Varnish to my paint and Floetrol though. I like the dried finish of the pouring medium, and I love the fact that I don't have to varnish it afterwards unless I want to. I find I can still get cells by stretching the paint a lot.. Interestingly, my last few bottles of Floetrol have been super thin.. so to maintain the consistency that I like I've been adding it just a little at a time instead of my normal measured amount (so that's another variable in the equation, Floetrol consistency).
Btw.. *your* happy accident led you down a path.. I LOVED that path! It was so exciting watching you, thinking about the science and formulas and consistencies (I was a mad scientist lol).. and then I finally did it myself and it was amazing... literally life changing. Thank you for opening up those doors and for sharing your art with us.. you are one of a kind Gina! ❤️
I’ve heard other people say their Floetrol was thin. I just got 2 gallons and they seem fine. I really shake the bejeezus out of it before I transfer to my smaller container. And yeah, everyone needs to find their own path and what they are most comfortable with. Sometimes I add other pouring mediums. Sometimes for no other reason than “why not?” The experiment is half the fun!
Mina Villegas Art any particular type of varnish that you use when adding to your pouring medium please?
@@Elitecruisesuk it's already mixed in there.. Liquitex Gloss Medium & Varnish. I don't add any additional varnish, just the LGM&V and paint and Floetrol.. if it's super thick paint then it's gets some water too..
When it dries it has a beautiful luster to it.. I don't usually feel like I need another coat of varnish on there.. but if I do I use Krylon UV resistant archival spray gloss.
Mina funny thing is, when Gina was talking about 4&5 I thought immediately of you and Sarah mack Lol. I was thinking in my head of each of my favorite artists when each number was demo'd. For 1-2 I thought of Mely D and Courtney Hoelscher (I might have spelled the last name wrong, sorry). Coz Creations (who I personally love and think is so under subscribed to) is right in the middle. Hell, I have so many faves, including the lovely Gina here, Lol.
Great tutorial, Gina! Thank you so much! Between you and Tammy Andersons recent video on consistently, many of us will be on a brighter path for pouring! Awesome!
This is GREAT!! The cards, too. Most interesting! Thank you.
OMG that explains everything as to why some of my art work has failed. I agree with floetrol it does wonders. I love my cards and thank you for answering questions for my problems. You're awesome.
Thank you for this, Gina! You just made it all very clear. No more confusion and frustration for me. God bless you!
Very helpful tutorial, ty so much for teaching us what you’ve learned through experimentation and science.
Yours is the first pouring channel I subscribed to when I discovered pouring about a year ago. Paint consistency was a major mystery to me and I still don't always get it right! Great tutorial and explanation, thanks for all you share. I got my Fluid Art Inspiration Cards last week and hope to pick a palette to play with tonight!
Gina, you were the very first Video I watched on Paint Pouring. You had me hooked, I spent 2 wks watching all your Videos. You are a very Talented Artist, Singer and a great Instructor. This Video is very helpful since I am always doubting myself. My second challenge is what colors to use together. Fortunately, thanks to you, I just purchased Go Make Some Art! Fluid Art Inspiration Cards, this will take care of my second challenge. I am so excited to use them. Thank you Gina for everything you have shared, not to mention all of your time. You are a true inspiration to me.
Excellent video! I appreciate your straight forward manner and your art is beautiful.
Hi Gina, thanks so much for clarifying and mostly for sharing. I'm a visual person, and a novice in fluid acrylic art. So, this video is helping me out tremendously in understanding consistencies. Un grand merci !
Great information easily understood. Thank you for doing this video. You are always direct, the best teacher.
I really appreciate this! Can't wait to try another pour tomorrow.
These are the best cards ever, they have helped me improve soooooo much on my colors. No more piles of mud on my canvas!!!!!🥰😍😘 I just pick a card and go straight to the video and go along with it. My husband wants to try one tonight so we will see how that goes. lol
That’s wonderful! ❤️
Thanks, Gina. This was really one of the most helpful videos I have watched. You covered so much from cell formation to consistancy of paint when pouring. Seeing the comparisons of showing paint viscosity at each level and explaining what viscosity for different techniques makes it easier to understand the hows and whys. I have been painting for years and have watched your videos for many months now as fluid art is new for me and exciting and very popular these days. I very rarely comment. I should and will more often as I respect and so appreciate the effort put in these videos. I will get the cards.
Thank you. I’m so glad it was helpful!
Best consistency video EVAH!!! Thank you for this!!!
Gina this video is so welcome as a guide.I am terrible for making notes and sometimes wander from what was working. I have been pouring for a little more than a year and am beginning to get effects that I like (slow learner). This video is now saved for future grey moments. Thank you so much.
Awesome! I’m new and learning. I know you posted this a year ago… just wanted you to know you are still helping others today with this video ❤️💙💜 Thank You!
Thank you! 🙏
Finally someone said it🤣 I don't know what warm honey is either.
🤣🤣
Me neither.
Sooooo HELPFUL!!! Please continue tutorials like this for beginners.
I love that idea of the box of cards I'm definitely going to have to purchase them
Thank you Gina. This was very helpful I hope. When I get back to the work table.
I appreciate your input!
I'm loving the card deck idea!!!
Thank you so much for your time, commitment and knowledge, much appreciated.
Gina, thanks for this breakdown on consistency. Great visual! “Jabba the hutt”🤣🤣🤣! You are one of the first artists that enticed me into this genre and I am still learning from you. Big thanks❤️, Pam
Thank you so much Gina, for making this video, it really helped me. Now I’ll try to do swipe according to your experience. Take care. 🤩
Thanks Gina, I learn so much with you❣️
Great tutorial Gina and I love your cards...fabulous idea 💡🥰
Ordered my cards. Yay. What a brilliant idea. Thank you for sharing your talent.
I love the way you describe and show the consistency of each paint plus you explain what type of pour you use with each consistency. I always come back to this video when I'm not sure.
Thank you so much for your tutorials.
Thank you! 🙏. Glad it is helpful!
Dear Gina, I am so glad that I found this video, I have been looking for this for a long time. You made it very clear and helped me a lot.
Thanks again. Love your art so much.
Simple and very instructive. So helpful to me as a beginner. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much. I am just starting out and this helps a whole bunch. You do beautiful work.
Great explanation ! Thank you for this video : clear, precise !👍👍💙💙💙
Very informative for a beginner like me it’s a must.
GREAT easy-to-understand video, thank you for making and sharing!
Thank you!
You are AWSOME! You are a wonderful video instructor ! The only video that explained that there were different consistency and showed me while also explaining their use! Best of the best!
Thank you! 🙏
Thank you for this❤️❤️. Really needed to understand the consistencies ❤️. Now I can get cells with silicone 💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻
This is the best explanation for consistency and techniques I have seen yet. It is brilliant and we are able to see the consistency good in your camera. Thank you for this. I have been watching videos for over a year now and have been struggling with too thin consistency. I also like the tip about a thicker base for a swipe. I had thought my base was too thin causing problems but most videos I watch have said ALL paints must be the same consistency. I am sure I will have better luck with using a thicker consistency for my swipes. I found my design would end up spreading out and thought it may have been from my base being so thin as well as my paints. Thanks again. I like that you explained what works for you is the best receive however, your explanation helps so much in this video. I appreciate it so much.
Love how helpful and informative your videos are! Thank you for this one! 🧡🤗🥰
Thank you so much for expaining the difference. I could not figure out why I was getting cells and sometimes not. This really helps.
You are the most informative artist on youtube I've found. I'm so happy I stumbled upon you!
Thank you so much for this .....I finally understand the consistency thing now...much appreciated!♥
Thank you!!! And I will also be buying the cards- they are exactly what I need 💜
Thank you for this teaching. I've wondered about consistency for different designs.
We got you cards and just love them, so many great ideas. Thanks for doing that. 👍🏻
Thank you for explaining this. What a great help this will be 👍👍
Thank you so much for this tutorial!! This is what us newbies struggle with. Much appreciated 😉
Thank you Gina! This cleared A LOT up........God Bless
Really helpful and informative tutorial....thanks so much Gina 💕
Genius!!! Seriously.. you have found something very useful for pouring artists! I have got to order some. I struggle with coming up with color combinations. These look like they could help! Thank you :)
Thanks Gina - you are a trail blazer. I watch a lot of videos but yours are the go to.
Thank you 🙏
Wonderful video! Congrats on the cards..outstanding!!
OMG...I have missed youtube tube was putting others in my feed before you. I was out of the biz for awhile, but am pouring again and needed a lesson on dutch pour basic paints. You are so terrifically wonderful at teaching...thanx.
Thank you for a very informative and clear video on paint consistency
OH snap GINA IS GOING to the next level!!!!! WooooWhooooo
Gina! qué explicación tan excelente! debería ser uno de los primeros videos a tener en cuenta antes de empezar con esto. Muchísimas gracias, me ayudaste a entender muchas cosas que nadie explica. y se evitaría tanto derroche de pinturas y lo peor , la frustración al ver que lo que uno hace no es ni parecido a lo que pretende...pero hay tanto para aprender antes!!! y tu generosidad te permite compartir estos detalles con todos. Mil gracias
Thank you, thank you, thank you!! Been watching your other videos so naturally I knew your concistancy video would be great
Gina,thank you so much for sharing your experience and knowledge. It makes so much sense.
I was afraid to go thinner than no.4 that’s why l became disheartened by pouring.
It’s so hard to try and see people’s consistency so now you have made it clear.😸
This is a great explanation and visual demonstration. I now see that a lot of my issues may be due to my paints being way too thick and my steadfast conviction that I need to stick to a recipe! Excited to mix up some more paint and experiment in a new way. Thank you so much.
Huge help, after a couple of months of pouring, I have figured out alot. This cuts to the chase, thank you. 🤩
Wonderful, wonderful information; THAT explains a lot of my beginner failures! Thank you so very much for explaining consistencies and what kind of pours to use them for.... invaluable info and a great job explaining.
Excellent video, as usual. I love your blend of art and science. It helps me understand WHY one of my pours worked or didn’t work. The almost endless combinations of pouring mediums and paint make for many happy accidents no matter how scientific we try to be-and that is a good thing isn’t it. 👏👏
I wish I could give more than one thumbs-up to this. "Warm honey?" Yeah. I even ended up making a video about that and the other things people would compare their paint consistency to. I have been appreciating your "makes a mound" method which you've been using in your regular pour videos; it's even better to have this video which compares them side by side. And, YES, newbies tend to fall into the "I must find the perfect recipe!" trap -- and often follow other people's recipes slavishly and find they don't work at all for them, because they are using different brands of paint, or different colours, or metallics, or non-metallics, or are in a different climate, or don't adjust the mix to make the different colours consistent with each other. you hit the nail on the head that what is important is the consistency, and even more, that all the paints which one is using in the same painting have the same consistency as each other. And I've also appreciated the point you're making that different techniques may call for different consistencies. Me, I don't vary my consistencies because I value the convenience of pre-mixing my paints (and storing them in squeeze bottles) more than I value the control of adjusting on a per-painting basis, but that doesn't mean it isn't worth thinking about.
Absolutely the most informative video I’ve watched. Just what I needed. Thank you.
Thanks for such a wonderful instructional video. I made up some of your thinner of floetrol & water mix.
THANK YOU! I’ve been trying to figure out paint consistency for different types of pours. This helps tremendously! Gonna try a Dutch pour right now....
Gina thanks so much. I’ve been getting so frustrated but you have made it simple to understand!
Wow. This would have been a handy video 3 years ago. The challenge is getting all of my paints the SAME consistency. Thanks for sharing your experience. Love your videos
Thank you so much. It’s taken me months of trial & error & I just found it all out in one video. New sub from Australia ❤️🇦🇺
Thanks for taking the time to educate!!!
Excellent explanation explained. Must watch video!!!! 👍
Yes! Thank you. I needed this
YES!!!! Thank you sooo much for this wonderful video. Very very helpful. You Rock!!!!! 👍🤗
Thanks so much for this good explanation and demonstration
This is so helpful!!!! Love this video Thank you so Much 😍
I was literally praying one night for a true understanding of paint consistency in paint for pour painting, and your video was the first one that came up. BLESS YOU!!!
