  • Check out this video on how to blow a flower with acrylic fluid paint. Inspired by Mely D, I decided to try this painting technique on my own. I now understand how difficult it is to keep the flower centered. You also need to control your blows - ha, ha - yes, I just said "control your blows"...weird. What I mean is that sometimes you blow harder than other times, you can see where I blew too hard at times throughout the video.
    Tip: Take breaks to breathe so you don't pass out!
    The more I play with blow painting and using a hair dryer, the more I'm thinking about purchasing an air brush. I wonder if the air brush would offer more control. Let me know if you ever experimented with the air brush to blow on acrylic paint and tell me how it worked out for you.
    As always, please let me know what you think of this video! I always love to hear from you so comment below and tell me what you think OR what else you'd like to see. Maybe you have an experiment you would like me to try?!
    Keep calm and paint on!

    This is far more interesting than just throwing paint. It was a good thing to watch for those of us who want to try pouring paint. And I'm such a hard critic I've been admonished by youtube for my honesty. I dont give a crap what youtube tubesteak eaters say. I'll say whatever I want to. This was good schooling for us amateur pourers!!! I loved it!!! It was

    The flower blowing technique would make a lovely poinsettia for Christmas!

    Hi, Im still learning and find it really hard to blow a perfect flower, but realised that leaving a bit of space between petals help to give more definition. Thank you for sharing your not perfect work and your trials as it help us beginners so much !

    Although the finished painting is lovely...I have to say the most beautiful was the initial white and green blow - that

    This is an awesome technique that can be used in a million ways making art. I see flowers, feathers and birds; all right there!

    I also really liked your painting at the earlier stages. I might have stopped after the first edition of the purple color. It was more

    Just recently became addicted to binge watching flow painting videos. I have never done anything like this before, but am dying to try it. The one thing I appreciate the most about this video is that you were willing to share an experiment that didn't turn out the way you wanted it to. I probably learned more from you than many of the amazing artists I've watched who's experiments always seem to turn out perfect. I subscribed to this channel and can't wait to watch more of your videos. It was also educational to see the helpful suggestions from other artists, but sad to see some who were less than encouraging or inspiring. I sometimes think people can learn as much, if not more, from things less perfect. Thank you for sharing!

    Clear varnish makes it shine really well and pearlescent or metallic paints add extra shine to.It's great 👍 and Thank YOU for sharing to its so hard trying to get all the paints to the right consistency as not too thin and not too thick.Phew it's a lot to learn.🤗
