Color theory and being a better to draw better, keeps many of us from doing more painting, or having teachers saying if you can’t draw then you can’t be painter. Love your encouragement to keep playing and be a rockstar.thank you
Just keep creating how ever you create - that’s always the best path!
So glad you talked about a limited pallet. This is what I want to work with these days.
Oh my goodness ... you are so adorable. You had me laughing so hard with Hog and Rosie. 🤣 I know how you can remember how to pronounce Pyrrol ... think of food, pie and roll ... then squash those two words together. Thank you for sharing all you do, with us. I love all your videos.❤😊
What an adorable intro. You are so creative! Just picked up these paints, can’t wait to use them!
So glad!!
You are so unique, like you have kept in touch with your childhood creativity which I think in todays world is very hard to do. I just love watching you.
For me, an exceptional review includes words outside of my vocabulary and especially creative arm movements for interpretation of the experience. I felt right there with you! Well done!
Grady Hester!!! I didn't look to see who wrote this - I just started reading and was like "what in the world - this is an interesting comment". That's exciting that I used words outside your vocabulary!!! Woohoo! I sure love you!
Such in depth and informational review! Thank you so much I've been eyeing these paints.
Oh good! Thank you!
Beautiful review, good fluid & good matte acrylics are so hard to find.
One of the best things I learned after just watching your channel after a few weeks, is to use only the basics !
I have to admit I was the artist that always needed a full set of colors, but than never knew what to make. I started to use the basics, and put away the rest in a box. So freeing and motivation to create stuff by just having the need to MIX colors! Doozie doggy ... thank you sooooo much for teaching us that !
I think it makes such a difference using less colors - it's really a game changer and good for the wallet! I'm glad you are finding that helpful!
Wow, I don't think I ever subsribed to someone so fast, you just seem like such a nice and genuine person and your art & this video have such a calm, positive athmosphere about them, I love it!
Also I am currently thinking about getting some of these paints to try them, they seem so fun (and might just solve the issues I personally have with acrylics) and your video really helped to get an impression of how they would actually feel, so thank you for that!
Welcome!!! soooo glad to have you here! I've been doing a TON of painting with these paints and they've converted me from an oil painter to actually using acrylics - I can't believe I'm saying that! There are several paintings on my channel that I've painted using these paints and the one coming out Friday I am using these paints too.
Love, Love, Love, every single one of your videos that im watching...im hooked on your crazy ass style its adorable !!!
Thank you 😂🙌
Fun overload!!!
Thank you!
I wish I was a fly in your studio to be able to sit all day what heaven. Loved the brushes chat so cute. Big hugs Chris xxx
Thank you Chris!
Doozie doggy!!! Love it!!!!
You get that language Mary - that's one of the reasons I love you!
you all prolly dont give a shit but does anyone know a way to log back into an Instagram account?
I was stupid forgot my password. I love any assistance you can give me!
@Ephraim Javier Instablaster ;)
Love the intro your sense of humour is beautiful. You are such a lovely woman. I’ve been watching you for quite some time on TH-cam and it’s a real blessing. The way you do your videos it’s not like anybody else and I think that’s one of the reasons, I love it so much. You also have a nice restful and peaceful nature. And you talk through your processing your head really good you think it might be crazy but a lot of us can relate.
Thank you so much!
I watched this with my little ones and we all loved it! 💛
HANNAH really?!?! well, goodness gracious that is an HONOR! Thank you for sharing that with me!
Sandi I agree with you about the limited pallet, I wished I had figured that out prior to buying a million large tubes of various colors...uhg.
Thank you for another fun video. I have to admit that I am somewhat guilty of keeping too many colours on my palette... however, I think I learned to appreciate every single one for different reasons and I always make sure NOT to use ALL of them in one painting... sending warm wishes your way!
I'm so glad you enjoyed it! I think all artist's are guilty of having too many colors! It's just what we do :)!
This is so interesting, Sandi! I love a good paint review. I was gifted (and then bought a few extra) Golden heavy body acrylics earlier this year and found the varying sheen to them difficult to handle (some were more matte but others really shiny). So I bought a matte medium to hopefully make them all a bit more matte and even. I haven't had time to try it yet but you've inspired me to experiment with my Golden acrylics this weekend! Hope you have a lovely weekend and enjoy your new paints!
P.S. I really enjoy your landscape work. Such a lovely feeling of light and atmosphere.
Natasha, the acrylics I've had in the past are the heavy body or just regular acrylics and I would have thought that I'd like that consistency better but man oh man, these fluid acrylics just work sooooooo much better. I don't know why but they just do! I think with the kind of work you do that you would really like these and I highly recommend them. I wish I had said this in the video but I think they have more of the consistency of acrylic gouache. Thank you for your kind words!!!
Your videos are always so much fun! And I'm really happy you mentioned not getting the full rainbow of colors. It's fun to get all the art supplies in the world, in all the colors, but it can be very overwhelming and then it really works against you. It takes much longer to get to know the medium and to get to know the colors. This year I started painting in oil colors (and loving it), but I got the basic standard set and not any other color. After some months, I added yellow ochre and Venetian red, but that's about it. It can be very overwhelming to start with too many colors, because it takes much longer to know your mixes. Another benefit of starting out with a small palette: it's easier to scale down. I started for example in watercolors, with a limited palette. That grew over the past 7 years to a collection of 24 colors, but when I go out and sketch in the zoo, I want to take my mini watercolor box, which fits only 9 colors. It's really easy, because I know which colors make what mixes, to scale down that studio palette to a set that can handle almost any situation and adjust if I need. Because I know my colors, my mixes and even the pigments. Had I started with a big box of all the colors, I wouldn't know this. So I'm very happy you mentioned it!
Amen!!! 🙌
I love your excitement. I'm getting to know my colors right now.
AWESOME!
Wow, such an amazing and detailed explanation. Thanks for making this informative video. 👍
binging again Sandi......and I love Golden...t=
As always love love your videos 😻 I look forward to it every week for your amazing videos 🤗 Hog and Rosie are so cute I think they should become your channel mascot 🥳 thank you for very informative review on Golden fluid matte paints it really made me think to just work with limited palettes 🎨 it would make my life easier enjoy the process and get to know my supplies better you are amazing teacher 👍 thank you for sharing your knowledge and inspirations 🙏
Oh I'm so glad you liked it and that you look forward to it every week. I always feel bad when I don't get one out each week but that's usually because I'm working on a long one for you guys. Thank you so much for your kind words - I REALLY appreciate it!!!!!
I needed to hear this: I hate mixing paints but I need to learn to and do it…I’m getting the three primaries and maybe a nice burnt orange or something that’s hard to mix
Thanks so much for your demo and ALL the fun! I've been so curious about the matte fluid acrylics, as I seem to have a love/hate relationship with acrylic paint. Love all the possibilities. Happy Thanksgiving!
You're more thank welcome! I've only had a hate relationships with acrylics until now and these have changed my mind for sure.
@@sandihester My frustrations with acrylics have been 1) they just aren't fluid enough 2) there's such a crazy fast drying time. I've loved playing with the flashe paints and am embarking on an experiment using Golden wetting agent to transform my heavy body acrylics into something more fluid without compromising or watering down the pigments. Fingers crossed. I think I'm searching for the wooosh and blending surprises of watercolor (which I love so much!) in acrylics.
@@lauraking1331 If you don't get that with your wetting agent then give the fluid acrylics a try because they really are a great consistency !!!
I love how you love! 💕
I do love some good art supplies!
Love your sense of humor
Thank YOU so much!!! I know again Im way behind but still wanted to say it!!!😊
That sumi-e brush in all that acrylic paint is killing me softly! 😱💀⚰️🥀👻😇
I love your brush friends. ☺️happy early Thanksgiving, Sandi! Thankful for your channel that brings so much joy and creativity. I laugh so much with you and really look forward to your videos. It makes me particularly happy whenever I spot Cooper.
Awe, Lina , thank you! Love your name btw. Really means so much that you would take time to leave me such a kind comment. So glad to have you here and am sooo happy your are enjoying the content here!
Sandi your paintings are absolutely fantastic 😍❤️😍
Awe, really?!?! Thank you Margaret!!! I really appreciate it!
So much fun
I got a set of 10. I come from watercolor and colored pencil and know 3 colors work but I can’t help myself. My inner coloring book girl wants all the colors! But with watercolor I have learned that I can own 100 colors and it’s fine as long as I limit any single painting to 3-6 colors. Sometimes I’ll go crazy and use like 7-8 colors but rarely go more than that. My time with watercolors though I need double primaries plus burnt umber. And white because with watercolors you don’t need white but first lesson is that in acrylics you use white a lot a lot. Lol sorry anyway I got a set of I think 10 or 12 of these. And it’s in these tiny tubes. I have been working larger in acrylics than ever before but mostly I work very small so those tiny bottles work for me.
How fun! I hope you love them! Have fun playing!!!!
Really nice review! Thank you Sandi!!
So glad you enjoyed it Karen! Thank you!
This has been unbelievably helpful to me. Thank you! Latte in hand, going to sit down in my favourite chair and listen to you on @authenticobsessions podcast
Awe - I'm so glad it was helpful! AND thank you so much for listening to the podcast!!!!!
I’ve watched this a number of times, taking notes, and learn something new each time. While I can find Golden Fluid Acrylics for purchase, I’ve been unable to find the Matte version. Have checked Michaels, Amazon (both Canada and USA) and a number of independent fine art stores. No luck. Is there a secret stash of them somewhere, only available to those in the know? :)
@@janeandclementine I just found out yesterday that they have discontinued them 😭. I just found them!!!! But they have a new line of matte acrylics that just came out (So Flat) and they sent me some and I’ll be sharing them soon in a video.
@@sandihester thanks Sandi. And another new video to look forward to! Whoohoooo!!!
@@janeandclementine yes!!!
You are my favorite TH-cam channe!l I love your videos.I'm learing so much! so inspiring :) If you ever do Patreon I will be there!
Awe, SUE!!! Goodness - what a nice comment to get! Thank you so much and I'm over the moon happy that you like my channel so much! Thank you for taking time to let me know!
Thank you for the insight into how many colours you should paint with to make it easy. I am planning to buy professional akvarell/ watercolours and is thinking about which colours to choose. They are a bit more expensive than the studentgrade.
I’m glad that was helpful Susanna! Thank you for letting me know!
Golden is putting out a new acrylic called SoFlat and if you like the matte fluids you'll like SoFlat
Hey Jenny! Yes, I heard about the SoFlat and actually reached out to Golden to see if they'd send me some and they're going to so I can try them for you guys! I'll be giving a full report!
Thank you for the fun and informative video. You are a natural and a joy to watch. The limited palette is a great idea to give cohesian to a painting. Also if I put them on my Christmas list they may appear, hopefully. You were talking about the yellows and then I wasn't sure whether you suggested a cool or warm yellow? Or both? Anyways wishing you a Happy Thanksgiving from Austalia.
Thank you Gaye - I’m so glad you enjoyed it! I know - I got to talking and my brain forgot the path it was on - I hate when I do that! I’m working hard at trying to complete a sentence but it doesn’t always happen. Really either yellow will work because you can cool a warm down with white and warm a cool down with some red. Sometimes the warms have more color/strength than the cools. Hope that helps!
Love what you said about having too many colors. Guilty as charged! 😂I started w watercolors and then become obsessed w oils. Bought a ton on sale. I didn't have that many watercolors. All of the sudden my blue and red weren't making purple.... But brown. Blue and yellow? Baby poop brown lol. Color temp is soo important too! Too many dang colors! Now I'm having to decide if I want to treat myself to these guys or a flashe set for Xmas 🤔🤔🤔😍
ohhhhh, that's going to be a hard decision - I have people asking me which I like best and I honestly don't know yet - it's a tie. Maybe let consistency and price be your decider. Both great options and won't that be a fun xmas gift!!!! Thanks for watching!
I was wondering, would you say it's "GOOPY?" It looks really goopy to me. What would you say it's gooposity rating is? Goopy? Or semi-goopy! 🤔
I just went to place an order from Blick and all they have is carbon black. Boo boo. Hope they restock soon.
Bummer

Im a Golden user heavy body acrylics for years. No smell to me. Golden is considered a high quality professional paint and thats why they are more expensive. The pigments are fantastic and yummy. Acrylic always dries a bit darker...Was the demo on paper with no gesso? I find when you use acrylic on paper without Gesso the paper drinks up the paint too much..my opinion. Great video thanks for sharing!
Thanks for sharing!
You're cool, I subscribed! 😄
Thank you!
Are these the same as high flow?
I enjoyed your video, as always. I did look up the Golden Fluid Acrylic and found 16 oz. bottle on Amazon and Blick. Jerry has large bottles 32 oz and a gallon. But I couldn’t find colors. Hope that helps. I started to say I would be peering in your window watching you paint, but was afraid it sounded a bit creepy. So now I can say I’ll be a fly 🪰 on the window. Thank you for sharing and for the smiles and laughter. ~ Fran P. S. 😉 Caran d’Ache is pronounced “Karen Dosch”
Thank you! I appreciate you looking those up but those are the regular acrylics - not the matte. Someone let me know that the matte are somewhat new so they haven’t come out with larger bottles yet. Appreciate you!!! I’m glad to have you as a fly on my wall!
Sorry, I wondered about that, but just got doozie doggy excited when the larger 16 oz and 32 oz bottles popped up. I’m an ink person and know even less than a new born baby about acrylics. (I always thought the name was sort of a warning.....a cry lics 😢 🤪 😬) I just wanted to help, as you have done so much for me. Love you sweet young lady
@@franswey2 no apologies at all!!! I appreciate you looking!!! And I appreciate your involvement and constant faithfulness to me and my channel! Really appreciate you!
Thank You for your great review Sandi. Could you tell me which red in the Flashe range is the ‘mixing red’ closest to a crimson shade please.
Quinacridone Crimson or Quinacridone Magenta will work.BUT they've discontinued the matte series - ugh!!! They have the non matte line still available though.
i don't think Golden Goopy would go over so well, though.
Have you used the nova paints ? Would love your thoughts .
I haven't
Being in the uk, I cant support you by buying via Blick, but you should contact Jacksons art supplies here, as Im sure they would do the same for you . ( I love the talking paint brushes too ! :) ) xx
Happy Thanksgiving!
Thank you Eileen! Happy Thanksgiving to you!
Sandi when you do a painting, do you interchange brands or just stick to one brand on each painting?
I don’t mix brands on canvas but I do mix them in my sketchbook
@@sandihester Thank you!
ugh where can i buy these?? can't find them anywhere online!!
I just found out that they’ve discontinued them 😭😭😭. They’ve come out with a new line to replace that line and I’ll be doing a review on the new line real soon.
@@sandihester nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo... what is the new line called?
So Flat. I'm testing it now and so far I'm really loving it!
Pie roll red.
YES! I have to make mental pictures of names to remember them and this is awesome! 🥰
You can stop wondering.....i. Must. Have. Every. Color. 🤣 they're sooo pretty tho 😉
That cracked me up so bad!!!! I hear ya and I feel ya 😂😂😂
I'm just loving your videos. I feel like a stalker. Haha. These look like SO much fun! They seem to be sold out everywhere (at least the colors you suggested.) Are they not making them anymore?
You’re so funny! I’m thrilled you’re enjoying my videos and I thank you for letting me know that! They’ve just recently discontinued these painted 😭😭😭. They replaced them with a paint I’ll be reviewing soon but spoiler alert - they’re making a lot of us cough 😳. In fact, I wrote the company today about it.
@@sandihester Oh no! Are you kidding!? I know how much you loved it. That's such a bummer. Hopefully the new line is even better!
@@MichaelWurmJr Flashe paint is similar and another fave of mine so I’m good! You might would really like Flashe paint!
@@sandihester Thanks! I actually just ordered some of the soFlat last night to try. We'll see! Thank you!!
@@MichaelWurmJr that’s exciting!! I love the creaminess of these new paints but they are giving me a headache and making me cough 😳. Let me know what you think of them!
Note to Golden, we highly suggest you change the name from fluid to “Goopy” Finally, all the artists in the crowd go wild they understand exactly what you mean, and they rush out to buy everything you’ve got
