    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. 😁💐

  • @MinaVillegasArt
    @MinaVillegasArt 4 года назад +44

    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! ❤️

    • @GinaDeLuca
      @GinaDeLuca  4 года назад +10

      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!

    • @Elitecruisesuk
      @Elitecruisesuk 4 года назад +3

      Mina Villegas Art any particular type of varnish that you use when adding to your pouring medium please?

    • @MinaVillegasArt
      @MinaVillegasArt 4 года назад +10

      @@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.

    • @Lexielouwho
      @Lexielouwho 4 года назад +5

      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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    It’s so hard to try and see people’s consistency so now you have made it clear.😸

    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.

    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....

    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

    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!!!
