Oh this brought back wonderful memories! I am 63 and I remember very vividly doing this in kindergarten and it began my life long love of creating art!!! She used a small pan and a delicious sheet of large white paper under the pan. Then we blew through the straw. Our teacher proudly displayed our creations and I knew then art and I would be life long friends! I cannot thank you enough for this memory and I will certainly do this now!
What a beautiful memory to unlock! Thatnk you for this lovely comment, it means so much to me and made my day!
Just tried this and realized it would have been a good idea to take my glasses off first! LOL! So much fun!
😂 Oh no! LOL! Have fun!
I used to do this with preschoolers for art. Not sure why I never thought about using it in my own art. I will now.
It's so much fun! I love it!
Me too! My daughter reminded me the other day that I used to paint with bubbles. I’m so excited to be reminded!!
Use blowing bubbles instead of dish soap and your bubbles are more defined.
Interesting way of doing this! Thanks for sharing. Will have to try it.
Interesting! 🎉
You are an art genius ! Thank you for sharing your magic and bringing me so much joy! I will be trying this today!
You're too kind, thank you so much for this lovely comment, and thank you for watching! Happy creating 😊
What is even more amazing catherine is how your joy at doing this inspires me to find my joy at doing things id like to do but have somehow judged as selfish or juvenile etc. Youre sence of exploration, curiosity and delight in your craft and beingness awakens in me a lot of possibility and permission. I see that there is noone stopping me but ne. Thank you x
How absolutely beautiful! Yes, you need to give yourself permission to make time for your creativity. Its one of the most profound sources of self care. Thank you for the very kind words. Now read them again, and imagine that you are saying them to yourself! YOU are all of these things too. BTW - you might be enjoy taking my free 5-day online class. You can sign up from the link underneath this video. Blessings,
Cat
Thanks, Catherine! There's a kid I babysit who LOVES watercolor, and I've been searching high and low for new and interesting techniques.
Hope that you aren the kid your babysit love doing this together!
Who says we have to grow old? So much fun. Can't wait to do this. Thanks for sharing.
This is the most fun paper to create, and is gorgeous when used in collages. Enjoy making these!
Oh my goodness, my inner kindergartener is loving this! ❤ I can't wait to start blowing bubbles. I recently acquired some fabulous antique fabric dyes that also work on paper. I am creating several journals for the New Year, so I will incorporate these techniques on my pages. Thank you so much!
My inner kindergartener jumps for joy when doing this as well! Enjoy my friend.
So much fun, Cat! 🎉 Thank you! I especially LOVED watching the reflections of the ring light multiply and grow as you blew into the cups! My inner child was practically giddy once “we” noticed that. 😂❤🎉
Too fun, now I need to watch again to see the reflections! I love how you appreciate your inner child.
❤❤❤
WOW!!!!! Utterly beautiful, thank you so much. I have been looking for some original ideas for backgrounds xx
Wonderful! Glad you enjoyed this!
@@catrains.artist I tried...and I failed 😞 Does the mixture have to be fairly thick/dense? with paint?
I just love this method! Totally want to play with these ideas, thank you! 😊
So glad! Thank you for watching!
Thank you for sharing this technique! Gorgeous papers! You have a lovely voice and a cute giggle! :)
Awww shucks! Thanks for the kind words about both my giggle and the technique!
I’m kind of obsessed with watching the reflection of your light in the bubbles 😅
I noticed that too! 😂 Mesmerizing
I bow to your technique, your knowledge and your generosity. No one shares secrets with others. There are no small secrets. There are small people and you are very big.Good morning from Greece
Wow, thank you! That is so kind of you, I truly enjoy sharing the journey with others 💖😊
Thank you! I used to do this with preschoolers and I’m so excited to be reminded… I am the bubble queen. I literally blow bubbles every day, I blew bubbles from Mountain top so hiking, walking down city Street, and as part of my daily Meditations. I even wear a little miniature bubble blower around my neck. So this is perfect and I can’t wait to try !!!!
That is so cool that bubbles are so prevalent in your life, and now you can make art with them too! Have fun! Thank you so much for watching
Oh my gosh I am smiling from ear-to-ear. This is got to be the best demo ever. Tube water colours would probably work too😊❤️👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
What a loving thing to say Julie, THANK YOU. Yes water colors will work, although I haven't tried it yet. But seen others do it, and it was equally as beautiful.
Gorgeous! Excited to try it!
I hope you have fun! Thank you for watching!
How fantastic! I love this!
Thank you so much! 💕
Can’t wait to try this!❤
Hope you love the experience!

Wow! Just when I thought I'd seen a video about everything you can do with paper, something new bubbles up! So beautiful, so easy, and looks like so much fun. Can hardly wait to try it. Thanks for a wonderful video...

Thanks you, this is so beautiful and interesting!!!!

LOVE this...gonna try it with intuitive drawing, doodling....
That sounds like so much fun! Please feel free to share how it turns out!
What fun! I am inspired to try this.
Oh I hope you do! Enjoy the experimental process.
I love this. We did this as an art project back in the 70's as a young kid. I had no idea what the mixture was and we just set the cup in the middle of the paper and blew until the liquid was gone. Then we used a sharpie to draw a picture. We are headed on an Alaskan cruise in a few weeks and now I am excited to make my own background paper for a scrapbook. Thank you.
Oh how fabulous. Happy and safe travels!
An invitation to play ...wonderful ..Looking forward to next week when you put these wonderful papers together . Big Thank you x
Funny that you actually heard me say what I was going to do next week! Now I'm committed, and need to figure out how to demo this😉 !
This is a fabulous technique wow thanks!
You are welcome. Hope that you enjoy creating these fab papers.
Oh my gosh! You are so cool! Thanks for showing this unique way of making beautiful backgrounds, and having so much fun while creating!
You are very kind Karla. Hope that you enjoy making these as much as I did!

Wow! Your papers are so beautiful! Love this technique. Thank you for sharing.
So glad that you loved the technique. Hope that you enjoy making your own!
Catching up on your videos here - now I know how I'm going to start my SAT creativity ritual: watch Cat! I loved seeing the multiple bubble techniques and am excited to bring these into my ever growing/expanding tricks to wow the EYE from my fav collage teacher - with humble thanks and deep appreciation, Sister Cat!!🙏☮🕉💜
Awwww what a loving thing to say! I'm honored to be part of your Saturday creativity ritual. THANK YOU for the love.
Thanks for your demo. It looks like fun and a great change from my more traditional art form
Is it possible to integrate this technique into your "traditional" art form? What do you usually create?
This was very intriguing..I absolutely loved the element of surprize resulting from the array of organic shapes created with the bubble effect. Awesome!💖🔥💖🔥💖🔥💖
Thankyou so very much, I really love bubbles and paint🎨 and am inspired to create bubble 🫧 art with my grandchildren ✨👌🏽
Oh what a fabulous project to do with your grandchildren. They might love the marble and water gel bead projects too! Enjoy.
Thank you from Margarita Island .Venezuela
Thank YOU for watching!
Thanks for sharing.. This looks like it will be great fun! I have sooooo many papers now.. making them is addictive :)
Totally agree. I have a mountain of papers and I always have to force myself to stop.
I'm just fascinated by this and all your other techniques! Can't wait to try them all, and do the Collage Kickstart class! Thank you!
Yay! Thank you! I hope you have so much fun in Collage Kickstart!
@@catrains.artist Just starting today on the texture paste and stencils (a little out of order) and already having fun! Thanks so much for this class and all your great videos!
@@junqueseekervintage So glad you are having fun with the videos, no matter what order you do them in!
Absolutely amazing 🤩 ! Thank you so much for sharing these techniques - for rocks and seascapes this is a real inspiration 👏🙏
Oh yes, this technique would be gorgeous for landscape backgrounds!
I don't have liquid paint. I suppose that I could use paint from the tube ane diluted and mix with other colors so I can have more options.
I do have in liquid states some water colors like 5 shades of RED mixed with yellow i dont know how will they react with Pva glue when I use it for collaging. In my country we still don't have that variety of colors. All I have it's came from my friends that lives abroad except acrilic paint in tubes 😂. We still have the artist but no so many people that go deep in to collaging and mix media just for a fun of it.
Oooooo 😍😍 such easy techniques that I never thought of!! 😅
Right?! So many simple, beautiful techniques are available to us! Thank you so much for watching 😊
Great idea and video. Thanks lots.
So nice of you, thank you!
Thank you so much for so much inspirations ... I love this bubble technics. ❤❤❤
So glad that this technique appeals to you. So much fun to create!
This looks like soooo much fun👍❤️
Super fun, hope you try it!
Beautiful and amazing. I would love to try it.❤
Oh I hope you do, it is sooooo much fun!
Good stuff!!
Thanks so much!
I tried this the other day using a deep cookie sheet. I love your idea of using a cup, instead. And, I love the idea of transferring them with a spatula. Thanks!
So glad that you got some new ideas for creating this technique!
Thank you very much for your share. This is really enjoyable technique. 😋
So glad you enjoyed it!
Amazing it would take hours to achieve similar effects with traditional watercolor methods. I cannot wait to try this.
Thank you! I hope you enjoy!
No conocía esa técnica y me ha encantado❤❤❤❤Gracias por ser tan generosa 💋💋🍏
So glad to know that you enjoyed this one!
very good idea ! i wil test this ! thank you so much
Fabulous! Enjoy the process.
