I appreciate your information on paint additives. No one emphasizes the importance of viscosity and texture in their tutorials like you do and you are spot on every time. I just got different mediums to try this! It is sooooo pretty!! đ¤Š
Thanks for watching! Iâm so glad you like experimenting like I do. Paint consistency is everything isnât it? Have fun đâ¤ď¸đ¨â¨
You have the cutest sea urchin family ever! Love how your skills are improving and that you are sharing the experiences with us. đđ
The Madd Tatter thanks! It's a fun learning process. I'm happy I can share.
I have to agree with the lady who said this was the most beautiful rock sheâs ever seen on a tutorial. What a treat to watch and to listen to. Iâm so glad I got some new wood pebbles from you last week, I will definitely try this. AND I had no idea Target had paint!! So excited to go there tomorrow, lol! âĽď¸đŻ Thanks for another delightful video Rachel!
Thanks Andi! I'm happy to share. Those wood pebbles are fantastic to paint, aren't they? Tag me when you finish I'd love to see what you made!
I prefer painting on flat canvases but you just made me want to start painting stones!!!
I'll be posting a bunch of stone paintings soon! Stay tuned : )
So unbelievablly beautiful. I love it. Thank you
Love it! Loving the colours đđ¤đ§Ąđ¤đ
Thanks! Sea urchin pastel colors. â¤ď¸
FANTASTIC! !!!
Cheryllynn Alston-Morton thank you! đ¤â¨đ
Very cool! You've convinced me to give it a shot. Thanks for posting this! I have 18 of the hand made modern paints from Target and I love them!!! The ladybug red is the best red I've ever used and I've been painting for over 40 years! So, yeah terrific sea urchin and nice color scheme.
Virginia Holliday yay! Please share when you're done. I'd love to see. Those Target paints are PERFECT aren't they? Thanks for watching đ¤
absolutely stunning!
Thank you â¤ď¸
Beautiful! Thanks so much for sharing this information đ
Youâre welcome đ Thanks for watching!
I love your video, thank you for sharing with us. I've been dotting for a couple of years now and I'm a bit OCD when it comes to perfection. This is a whole new technique that can help one let their hair down LOL. I'm working on a couple of sea urchins right now and now realize a more organic look can go a long way. YEAH!!!!
Hi Veronica! I love your comment! I, too, am a recovering perfectionist. I started having so much more fun when I started experimenting and stopped critiquing every dot. Itâs such a head game isnât it? Iâm glad your letting go a bit. Especially with urchins! The dots on an urchin are perfectly imperfect. đđđđ
This is absolutely awesomely beautiful. Fantastic. Amazing
I love the colors and the design and the glaze. TFS-Rebecca
Thanks Rebecca! That Martha glaze is really something.
Beautiful is the word!!!
Thanks Rita! â¤ď¸đ
Absolutely beautiful - and soooo grateful to you for introducing me to Dragonfly Glaze - I love it!
Isnât it the coolest?! Not too chunky and sparkly in the best way. Thanks for watching đ
Brilliant!!!
Thank you!
Beautiful!
Thank you so much Traci đâ¤ď¸â¤ď¸â¤ď¸â¨
Love this đ
Thank you!
Using two different glazes was a super touch and I wish we could see and feel your urchin in person! Paying such attention to the finishing touches makes a piece extra special. I can't wait to be able to order some of your flexible stencils, for stone shapes the rigid ones are so difficult. Thank you as always!
It's all about the tactile quality of this one. I even like the spiky bits. Super fun to make too. Thanks for watching Susan : )
I am making this!!! Love it!đ
Have fun!
I love this Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching Mayra! â¤ď¸
Lovely to think I have been trying for flat dots.
đ Try puffy dots! The urchin design made me want to try them and now I want to use them all the time! Flat dots are still beautiful, though.
amazing!!!
Thanks Tiffany đđ
i grabbed a tube of heavy body liquitex at the craft store to do the peach dots..... sooo much fun! loving heavy body paint!!
Yes! Spiky dots are so touchable đ Iâm glad youâre experimenting. So fun.
I love your sea Urchin, the colours are gorgeous. I have been doing Henna Art and have learnt to hold the cone closer to the tip to get more control, I don't know if this helps but it might be worth a go. Thank you so much for doing these tutorials for us they are fantastic.
Thank you for that tip! Iâve since fixed my cone problems with applicator bottles and thereâs no going back đ Iâm so glad you like the tutorials â¤ď¸
Love this project! I canât wait to try it. Thank you for sharing your talents!
Hi Suzanne! Have fun đ
I got my puffy dots kit and I am working on this project now. I am so excited! Which of your CZcams videos use these tools?
I have a bunch coming up! Stay tuned đđđ
This is the most beautiful dotted rock I have seen on CZcams to date. You really did a spectacular job. Have you ever thought about putting a resin over this? This had to take days if not weeks and I appreciate you sharing this with us.
Candeekissez omg that is so sweet of you đ Thank you. Drying time is a factor đ puffy dots take forever to dry. I don't trust resin with round objects so I may just leave it. Thanks for the comment. You made my day đ¤
WowâŁđđ
Hi Andrea! Thank you đ
Absolutely stunning your colour palettes are excellent youâre so creative and I look forward to trying out dotting in the future. Iâve been looking into what sort of kit you would suggest for somebody beginning dotting who would like A little bit of tools plus your applicator bottle do you sell a full kit? I donât want to go and buy a bunch of tools I donât need that will end up sitting in my caddy. Oh BTW itâs great to see you trying out the cone
Here's my beginner kit: thedottingcenter.com/product/dot-mandala-painting-kit-dotting-tools-and-stencils-to-get-started-dotting/ and the bottle kit is here: thedottingcenter.com/product/paint-applicator-bottles-for-3d-dots-paint-bottle-set/ These are all the basic tools so you can try them out. If you love dotting (which, I mean, of course you will...) you can invest in some silicone tools and design stencils : )
OMG that is soooo amazingly beautiful and creative!!! I absolutely love it!! Do you sell the wood base? Do you think the spikes could scratch a child? I'm wondering about my 3 1/2 yr old autistic grandson. He loves the dotted dishes I create because of the tactical stimulation, if this wouldn't scratch him I think he would love love these!! I am just blown away by your creativity!! Love your soothing voice too! Thanks for sharing!! đ
Hi Kay. Thank you! Yes I sell the wood base at The Dotting Center on Etsy. The spikes won't scratch a child. I have a 5 and 18mo and they both love to pet my urchins ; ) Your grandson will love these.
@@TheDottingCenter Oh thank you so very much!!
"More glitter, more better"
Thank you I received the applicator bottles today, how do you clean them?
With water right after you use them. If you get clogs soak them in rubbing alcohol and use a pin to dislodge the plug. Iâll have a video coming soon to show all the details đ
I love this! I have stared one but there are so many products. Canât find homemade modern acrylic paints here in NZ could I mix decoart paint with a gel to put in the cone?
You really just need a medium body acrylic paint. You can use your local brands. Add gel medium to thicken liquid acrylics or add pouring medium to thin heavy body acrylics to get the right consistency đâ¨
The Dotting Center thanks so much.
I really like this idea I would love to try this. Do I have to use the silicone tools because I can't find them anywhere I live. Can you tell me where to get the silicone tools?
You can get them in my shop here: www.thedottingcenter.com Thank you đ
Hi there
Do you sell the dotting tool set for mandala outside of etsy? Love your work and tools đ
Yes. Www.thedottingcenter.com
Can you use your bottles for the puffy dots?
Yes, the bottles make puffy dots much easier đ
Where do you get "wood pebbles?"
Hi Annie! They're back in stock here: bit.ly/3BrwmMh
Instead of using that paper "piping bag" can you get the same result from using a squirt bottle with the same size tip?
And why use that paper piping bag? Lol
Yes you can get a better result from the bottles! At this time I was testing out those mini piping bags but I couldnât get consistent results. I discovered what the bottles could do after this project.đ
Why does my paint go flat?
You're probably using fluid paint and that will always dry flat.
