I love swirls circles and color so this is really beautiful to me. Right up my alley. Really enjoying this series. Just colorful and stunning. Love it Mark ❣️😊
This technique is so cool and looks like so much fun. I will try this for sure. I have some great ideas what I can create with the catalyst. Thank you for sharing. ❤️
Mark, there isn't one thing that I don't love about these paintings! I have never tried anything like this before, but you have definitely inspired me to give it a try. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much 😀 You’ve made my day with such a kind comment to me. Thank you and let me know how you get on. Thanks again Michelle much appreciated. Mark x
Hi Mark, Wow, it could be fireworks. I see windmills with fields of flowers blowing in the wind along with the sun starting to go down. The sun adds such beautiful colors. Thank you for sharing another wonderful piece with all the different techniques you used. Have a wonderful day
Ive used the balloon effect before. Youve inspired me to do more. Need to give 2 gifts to family members so I think this is a great technique. Thank you Mark 😊
Wow! I definitely have to try this. I love the colors! Between the colors and the embellishing with the various tools it made the diptych so unique. As always, thank you for sharing your talent and skills. Denise ❤
J'adore ! Les couleurs sont très fruitées et magnifiquement assemblées ! Je l'appellerais (et c'est venu en anglais 😉) "Sunny Tutti Frutti". Il en ressort une énergie lumineuse, vive et apaisante. Bravo !
Love these! I tried one after seeing one of your videos and it came out … not bad. I love that you don’t have to be an “artist “ to create cool paintings. Thanks Mark!❤️😊
So pretty Mark!! Love the swirling comb.❤️ I did one painting already like this, definitely going to do more. Thanks for a great idea Mark. Have a wonderful day. 😊💖
I love your creativity, I already tried this technique it's awesome, have been moving away from pouring and this is a great way to use up my paint stock. I love the way you explain what you are doing you are super at inspiring, thank you.
@@MarkJRatcliffeArt I am an Abstract / multi media artist, using a different medium, although I like doing pouring, it's not where my artistic love lies. So I am moving away from acrylic paints all together. Currently watching videos to find interesting and different ways of using up my paints. Your recent videos have been awesome.
Mark. It is definitely different as the blowing out, or swiping, or stretching out... I like it very much. This colors are ideal for summer warm composition 😉. I have to try too 👍😘. Greetings from holiday in Croatia. Alena
@@MarkJRatcliffeArt Thank you Mark 😘. Yes we are. We are on the island Krk. We have daily 31 -34 °C. The Jadran sea is warm, clear and beautiful with all colors of blue.
Mark, I absolutely love this technique with all that structure and am happy to hear that there's more to come. This double piece is on fire and looks like a "reverse" firework. Very besutiful with all the different structures. It was such fun to watch you create. Your videos never get boring 🖒💖 PS: I have to admit that after you put all the paint on the canvas, I had the desire to create an own one, put on a glove and roll a rubber ball back and forth through all that paint instead of dipping the balloon, just out of curiosity what it would look like. If I had more time I would probably go get some paint, then grab one of my leftover tiles and have fun making a mess 😉 Who knows... maybe one day
So Nice !! Try to put a small balloon push in the center of each flower. I just saw that idea as u were making the flowers. Does it take these pieces a long time to dry? I Love watching yr videos. Thanks for always making new ones it's so Inspiring. Can't wait for the next one.
You should enjoy what you’re creating
I enjoy it myself. Love this!

Super interesting. Resembles a textile. I would love to see this in Phthalo blue, turquoise and lime green. Beautiful.
Wait til you see next weeks - includes lime green and blues too
I do wish the pink showed up a bit more 💕
This is very cool 😎
Thank you Carla 🩷

Great idea! It dries really quickly 🤩
This is so fun!
I will have to try it and soon😊
No problem with cracking?
Have fun! No cracking 👍🏻
These are beautiful, very striking. Because of the thickness of the paint, would you still put a gloss spray varnish over it?
Thank you. 🤩 No I’ve decided not to varnish as the Arteza paint is also naturally glossy
It’s beautiful… I’d have left the center tape off to create a real diptych.❤
💜
Hello Mark, l’idée de travailler avec de simples 'outils' m’inspire : bravo
Combien de jours pour le séchage ? Dites-moi
Thank you - took 2 days only 👍🏻
