Hi guys! Thank you so much for being here 🥰
I was in experimental mode today, adding different ingredients to see what effects it would achieve.
A triple video for you today, videos 1 and 3 are on an 8'' square canvas and video 2 is a 12 x 16'' canvas.
Base for video #2:
150ml Acrylic Paint (I used Eraldo de Paulo, but any will do)
450ml Australian Floetrol (thinner than American, so this needs to be taken in consideration)
75ml Polymer Gloss Medium and Varnish (I used Holcroft)
75ml Matte Varnish (I used Jo Sonja, I mistakenly said Atelier in the video)
Splashes of water to reach the consistency shown in the video (thin absolutely no trace, resembles milk).
Base for videos #1 and #3:
300ml Acrylic Paint (as above)
500ml Australian Floetrol
75ml Polymer Gloss Medium and Varnish
75ml Matte Varnish
Splashes of water until it reaches a thin consistency, similar to milk.
Colours in video #1:
Jo Sonja Rose Pink
#Colourart #Prizmpour in Pink Diamond wit a blob of Deep Violet by Liquitex added.
I mixed my colours with Australian Floetrol and water (didn't measure) until it reached the consistency shown in the video. I used the same consistency for my colours in all 3 videos.
CA/Swipe Colour: Liquitex Gouache in Fluorescent Opera Pink mixed with Australian Floetrol. I never measure ratios, I mix until it leaves a slight trace when drizzled from around and inch above the surface.
Video #2:
Atelier Blue Black
Jo Sonja Rose Pink
Pebeo Iridescent Green Blue
Colours mixed as in video 1.
Video #3:
Atelier Blue Black (Indigo)
Pebeo Iridescent Green Blue
Holcroft Daintree
Colours mixed as in video 1.
CA/Swipe Colour: Atelier Blue Black, mixed with Australian Floetrol. I never measure ratios, I mix until it leaves a slight trace when drizzled from around and inch above the surface.
Outcome:
They all dried as appeared when wet, surprisingly enough! I had expected the Dutch pour to go a tad crazy, I did think my base was too thin for it though as didn't much care for the huge amount of pearls. I will try again with my thicker mix and maybe not use the blue black and go for purple or ultramarine to brighten it up as the base does tend to ''eat'' the colours similar to Satin Enamel.
My hairdryer was bought from Kogan and the brand is Estelle, I used cool setting, low fan www.kogan.com/...
Although todays pour isn't my usual swipe, my style has changed and evolved dramatically since I took the Sheleeart E-Course and I can't recommend it enough!

My lazy susan is glass and 20'' which was purchased from Coles supermarket, they can also be sourced from variety/dollar stores. The heavier the spinner, the easier it will spin, I'd also suggest you get the largest one you can so you can easily use it for larger substrates too.
My metal spatulas are artist pallet knives, they can be purchased from fluid-art.co/ or independent art stores.

Spectacular and beautiful!❤❤❤
Thank you Shelia! 😀 ❤️
Thank you for sharing!
Thank you Beth 😊💙
beautiful
Thank you Angeline 😊 💙
Sooo beautiful all three of them. Ana soo frustrating as I live in Bahrain where none of these things are available. I can order floetrol but it costs three times the price of the gallon to ship it here from US and Australia. Making it just too expensive I’ve been trying other products but disappointing when I can’t get these results. Love watching you work. ❤️
Thank you Lynn 😊💜 Sorry to hear that, sometimes we just take stuff for granted when it's on our doorstep!
Evening Niki D, hope you & yours are well & happy, now I’m sitting back & watching beautiful paintings. Colors are amazing . Kindly, Holyn
Hi Holyn! All good thank you, hope you and your family are well too 😀
Love your video. 👍
Thank you Christina 😊💙
@@NikiDArt I am going to try this soon.
This was a great experiment Niki! I have viewers from Australia asking me all the time about Australian products they can use and I just don’t know. I can’t wait to direct them to this video! Great job! They are all beautiful but my vote is for the Dutch Pour 😉. ❤️👏🙌
Thank you so much Tara! 😀 💙
Love them all 💗
Thank you Carolyn 😀💜

Amazing pearls. Was going to vote for the Dutch pour until I watched the third expirement, now it's a tie.. Lovely. Thank you, Niki!
Thank you Maria 😀💙
Thank you for sharing, beautiful painting 👍😍
Thank you! 😀 💙
Great experimenting! My favorite would probably be the Dutch Pour although I’m such a green person 😊the last one is gorgeous too! ✨
Thank you Donna 😊💙
All 3 are spectacular!
Thank you so much Theresa 😀💙
I really love your work. Everything you touch is golden and gorgeous. I also enjoy your music. I am looking forward to more paintings from you.❤️🙋🏻♀️
Thank you very much Lisa 😀💙
I loved the three paintings but the Dutch pour is my favourite. You make everything look stunning. I bought the Eraldo white paint so I will try it.
Oh thank you so very much Margaret 😀 💙 I found it slightly transparent with it thinned down so much, which is fine on a white canvas but I poured over a previously dried one and you can see it on the edges through the white.
Love the paintings especially the Dutch pour!😍
Thank you Mira 😀💙
Brilliant work Niki 👏 absolutely lovely, especially the first one it reminded me of a sea horse. Thanks mate 👍.
Thank you! 😀 💙
Beautiful colors and designs. I was wondering what you kept picking out of paint. Thank you for sharing. Elaine
Thank you! 😀 💙 I've forgotten now, it may have been dog hairs or dried paint that sometimes gets into it lol!
Beautiful creations... Thank you kindly for sharing the beauty you create.
Thank you Wanda 🙂💙
Awesomely beautiful!!!!!
Thank you! 😀 💙
Thank you, Niki. I so enjoyed this whole experience watching your paintings and the musical accompaniment....Bliss. All paintings are beautiful...my favourite is the third one...so beautiful in itself, and tranquil beauty too :-) xx
Thank you so much Jan 😀 💙
I have months of experiments doing this without enamel. Some okay, most bad. I have a couple of those large bottles of white I don’t use. Now I have to try again.
I loved these three. I hope I get something like them. Thank you. ❤️
Thank you Karen! 😀 💙 I bought it in one of Riots many sales to use to practise with. One thing I found it goes quite transparent when thinned down, so this just shows its not highly pigmented as I've not seen that happen with white before
@@NikiDArt, I have PTSD that was only diagnosed 18 months ago. I was treated for the wrong thing for 35 years and it was such a relief to know. I had always been an artist since I was 11 years old. I painted flowers, insects and the ocean because it has always been my love. The new Dr treating me found out I gave my easel’s and everything I owned away 8 years earlier. My homework was to start painting but in abstract.
That was like a new language to me, I had 2 weeks of meltdowns before I knew how I would do it. Then it took me 4 days to mix my paints instead of 20 minutes. I knew nothing about fluid art then. I found a huge Riot Art sale so I bought almost every colour they had. Now I only use it to teach people how to paint and they have fun with it. I can only teach 4 at once and that makes me sick but I don’t charge. They only get invited if they say they are not creative and I prove they are. I want to do this with all of the elderly that live around me. If the Pandemic ever ends or is controlled. They need to see and talk to people. We don’t have a lot but I don’t mind supplying them. Riot Art paint and Kmart canvases make it doable.
Somewhere in a big white bucket with a lid, inside a packing box in my garage. Are many new tubes of Matisse paints. I will never find them again because I will not go in there. Next door have 2 wild giant Pythons in their backyard. They like to lay there eggs here for me, then Winter in my garage. I have never been in my garage. 👀
Oh my goodness, I went from smiling at your generosity at teaching, to being horrified at your neighbour's snakes! Can they be reported to council, it's not right you can't feel safe in your own garage
Thank-you Niki. As always your approach is very inspiring. Loved the outcome of your experiment and generosity of information.
Thank you so much Deborah 😀💙
I loved the video of these beautiful creations. They really make a nice set. Thank you.
Thank you Lissanne 😀💙
I just started doing the pearl pours and I'm hooked. This video is Great! I love how you used the hair dryer and got amazing results. Very inspiring! I'm going to have to give that a go. You are a master with a pallet knife! I kept replaying how you did that swish in the second video...incredible! I'm so excited to try all the things you showed on this video. Of course I'll have to watch it a few🙄 more times. Thanks! I can't wait to see what you do on your next video.😊💜💙💚💛💜
Thank you very much Tera! 😀 💙
Gorgeous pieces my friend. Your Dutch pour is stunning. And the first video looks like a pink bat! Lol 🤣. My crazy imagination! We must be on the same wavelength worlds apart. I just found a no satin enamels way to pearls!! Lol 😂
Thank you lovely! 😀 💙 Ooh how about that proper twilight zone stuff 😁
Cool results. Great experimenting. Good compositions too, right amount of negative space. For me in the US it's probably easier to get some Satin Enamel than your ingredients...💙Nathalie
Thank you very much Nathalie 😀💙 It used to be sold here in Aus, but nobody stocks it any longer
absolutely love your work and want to give this a try, but where on earth do you get polymer gloss medium and varnish from?
Thank you 😀💙 The details of the brand is in the description box, this is an old video so I'm only guessing but I think the brand was Derivan? Bought from art stores. It will be listed in full though
I love your paintings...super cool. What hair blower do you use?
Thank you! 😀❤️ I use an Estelle, it has a cool air button
I'm confused, you use 75ml polymer gloss medium with how much varnish? Thank you.
75ml polymer medium and gloss varnish and 75ml of matte varnish. I listed the recipe in the description box 🙂
love this all were beautiful. Question... did you use regular cell medium to achieve the pearls?
Thank you 😊♥️ I explain in the video what I use and it's written in full in the description box, with the recipe listing exactly what's used
@@NikiDArt I understand however Im new to everything and I guess ill just research each one to see. sorry I asked a question and needed clarification.
are u useing pour med in your white acrylic color when u put it down for your art ??
This video is a year old so I honestly can't remember details, however, they're all in the description box of the video
are u useing any pour med in your paints?? "very "very "pretty!!
Thank you, I explain at the beginning of the video exactly what I mixed my paints with, it's also listed in the description box 🙂
Gorgeous! Where can I purchase Australian floetrol in the UK?
Thank you! 😃💖 You can buy it (along with TLP pigmrnts, palette knives and the brilliant stir sticks) from www.fluid-art.co choose the 🇬🇧 at the top and the £ at the bottom of the site to get UK stock and correct currency
@@NikiDArt Thank you so much 🥰🙏💕
pour med in the white tail of the art ?? how are u getting those big ceels in the tail of the art ??
This was a quite a while ago so I can't remember, all the details are in the description box as well as at the start of the video
What does make those pearls? Is it the Floetrol? I tried everything to get those pearls with silicone oil, but I don;t get them. Also pouring medium, no pearls or cells. I hope you can help me. Thank you!
Hi, it's usually satin enamel that creates them. If you head to the description box you will find my recipe listed in there 🙂
@@NikiDArt Thank you so much!
thanks as a queenslander i need an aussie to follow what is your swipe? thanks
Hi, everything I used I show at the beginning of the video and also listed in the description box of the video 😀
@@NikiDArt so hoo do sorry I’m sure I checked maybe just couldn’t see it not loading maybe
What's the background music on video #3?
All the music is from Epidemic Sounds, it's written in the description box under the video 🙂
They are all amazing❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much 😊 💙
