thank you so much Hassan 🙏
Wow love that ❤ thanks
Glad you like it thank you so much ☺️
This is really pretty. I like the colors.
Thank you so much 😊
Mark from a distance it does resemble a sea horse, but when you gave us that close up as your were moving the camera down it reminded of me of fresh sea water flowing threw lava after it had cooled some, bringing life back to a land that was burnt. The gold being the last bit of hot lava, this is marvelous no matter what anyone sees it as. I guess that is how art is. I want to thankyou for reminding me art is to be fun, relaxing and a tool to help us unwind. You are quite a artist and should be very proud of this creation. Thank you so much for taking the time to share your time and talent with us.
Carol - thank you so much for such a thoughtful and lovely comment. Your feedback really means a lot and I love your interpretation of this piece. Thank you 😊
Beautiful colours and the whole art peace looks like 3D ❤

Thank you 😊
I sort of see a seahorse; however, what I really see is a beautiful painting with outstanding colors. The creation has a lot of rhythm and I really like it. Take good care. Denise ❤
Thank you Denise. Hope you’re well? Thanks always for your kind support and encouragement x
Just wonderful. I am new to this and started watching your video out of curiosity. The first line did not attract me at all but I thought I'll stick around to see the rest. Stunning. I really appreciate that your video is void of senseless comments unlike others. Together with the soothing music in the background, it allows the audience to concentrate on your art and talent. My heartfelt admiration sir.
Wow! Edward, thank you so much for your kind comment. I’m glad you stuck around to see the process. I’m I’m happy to hear you like my approach when creating. Thank you again 😊
Fantástico. Estou aprendendo e já me sinto uma Artista Plástica. 🎨 SUCESSO em sua vida 🙏
Thank you so much Rosi - that’s really kind of you and I really appreciate your kind words of support and encouragement 😊
Heck ya looks like a seahorse 💜🙏
Thank you Tanya 🙏😊
Le tue creazioni sono sbalorditive fantastiche .
Thank you 🙏
I like this piece as well Mark. And yes the gold makes it pop a bit. I don't see a seahorse but I see other things.
I love that the whole thing didn't cell. I am not fond of cells and this is a perfect of cells/non cells.
Thank you for sharing, you're an inspiration for sure. I will be back.
Thank you so much for your kind words of encouragement and support- I’m so happy you found me and I hope you enjoy what you see 💜😊
Beautiful artwork Mark😍❤️
Thank you so much - appreciate your kind feedback 🙏😊
Hello I am so sorry if this sounds weirds but you wrote such a nice and wonderful comment on here and I like your comment. I can tell you're a very positive person. If it's okay with you I'd love to be friends
Ja so sehe ich es auch wie ein „Seepferdchen „ sehr schön geworden danke fürs zeigen 👍👏🙋🏼♀️🇨🇭🙏❤️
Thank you so much Marlise - appreciate your kind words of support 😊💜
Don't know why your channel was recommended but I'm glad they did. That piece was absolutely beautiful. Will sub and watch more.
Well…. I’m so glad they did and our paths have crossed. Thank you for your kind feedback and welcome. Hope you enjoy what you see 🙏😊
To me it looks like you are under the sea looking through a crack and seeing the ocean from inside through crack. Mesmerizing.
Thank you! I totally understand that 🙏🤩
Oh my god… the struggle is real!!! I have a very finite amount of workspace as well, and I’m very limited in how large a canvas I can work on. 30in is my maximum width. I have no room to tilt either. But, you do such a good job illustrating that, while difficult, working with larger canvases in smaller spaces might be difficult, but not impossible. Beautifully done. 🐻
Ahhh thank you so much Bear. You’re always so kind and I really appreciate your feedback and support 💙🙏😊
I love it. I want to do something like this, but I fear it won't turn out. I love how you keep challenging yourself. I am starting to do this.
Thank you Holly. Always great to push yourself as you get to learn how far you can actually go. Thanks as always for your support 😊
It’s beautiful. Looking closely and I see so many creatures trying to escape the blue pour. It’s very interesting.
Thank you 😊
Glad I subscribed as your work is incredible!! Beautiful outcome!! Have you thought about getting the world's smallest blower and attachments from Tracie Reed? That tool to me is so wonderful for dutch pours to help bring out so much more detail. Thank you for sharing!!
Thank you so much Leah! So kind of you to provide such kind feedback. Welcome and hope you enjoy what you see. Not sure if that blower is available here in the UK but will check it out 🙏😊
Mark with your close up, I saw so many faces! It look like a bunch of characters having an interesting conversation! I suppose everybody will see different things. Such a beautiful creation
Wow thanks so much 💜💜
Absolutely fascinating. What do you use to blow the paints?
A hairdryer 👍🏻
Stunningly beautiful, I'm just about to dip my toe into the world of acrylic pouring so am a little nervous on mixing ratios but this is a great inspiration. I bought a bunch of Amsterdam acrylic paints so I take it they are a good brand if you are using them 👍
Thanks so much Paul. Yes Amsterdam are great paints and have a great binder so can be watered down without breaking up. Aim for initially one part paint to 0.75 part water and then you can always add a bit more water if you’re doing a more fluid technique like Dutch Pour. Have fun and I hope you enjoy it. Huge warning though…. It gets very addictive haha
@@MarkJRatcliffeArt Thank you for that advice, I also bought some Amsterdam acrylic pouring medium, add that to the paint and water too?
@@Flashpg so pouring medium is a liquid you add to your paint to allow it to flow and become more fluid. People use a range of medium and also make their own. I did do a video on how you can make your own when starting out to help get a feel for techniques. People have various ratios but if you use pouring medium I’d start with 1 part paint to 3 parts pouring medium (some people go to 4 parts). Water can be added to make it very fluid (but don’t over water as you’ll break the binders in your paint and it will break up and split).
@@MarkJRatcliffeArt Great thank you, I’ll watch more of your videos as I’m sure I will learn a lot. Thanks again
Well done sea house smile
Thank you 😊
Wow que brillo
Thank you 🙏
Hey Mark, it really looks very much like a sea horse, but I also see all types of faces everywhere. The colours look "cool and fresh", but are not cold because you used some gold. It's like fresh running water in the sun. The details are stunning. I even saw a small black heart. It's a very beautiful piece and I can imagine that such a big canvas is quite a challenge. Good job 🖒💖
Thank you Michaela! I always enjoy your interpretation so thank you for sharing x
@@MarkJRatcliffeArt it's a pleasure
Yes. 🎉
Thank you
Mark, I really like this piece. It seemed like the black base was swallowing up the colors as you blew them out. I have had that problem before so I switched my black to Amsterdam Oxide Black from Artist'sLoft ready flow black. I adore the colors you chose, the blues and gold are gorgeous together. Beautiful painting.
Thank you so much for your lovely comments and encouragement 😊🙏😊
Shining river in the dark it is enough great
Thank you 😊
@@MarkJRatcliffeArt thanks for your kindness and the high spirit you have
Hi Mark. Love that piece you just created. So beautiful. Do you list the colors you use on your videos and also which mediums you use? Thanks so much. I’ll continue to watch. Nikki from USA
Hey Nikki - thank you so much. Really appreciate your kind feedback. I usually list all Color’s and details in the description box that goes with that video 👍🏻
Lovely piece Mark...I love the flow😁 my work space is limited too. What I find hard is my table height. I think I will have to ask Santa for a higher one😅😘
Thank you so much and Yes defo hear you about the work space. Hope
You get one from Santa 🎅
I’m new to painting. What type of canvas and paint do you use? Love the colors!
I use triple primed deep edge canvases and use acrylic paints that are watered down to make them fluid in consistency
I Mark,,Im so happy with my seahorse,thanks again,may I ask when do I vernish?should I wait like 3 months,many thanks.💫
Thank you. I’d wait at least a few weeks 👍🏻
Hi, 2:07 Mark,congratulations,this is lovely,does one need to varnish it,thank you so much.
Thank you 🤩 Yes I varnish it with a gloss spray varnish
Love it! Do one in greens!!! Loch Ness? 😊
Thank you- ohhhh yes 💚💚💚
Looks fantastic Mark. Do another with the same colours, but with a white background to be hung as a pair. Subscribed, liked, and looking forward to more great art.
Thanks so much Frank, really appreciate your feedback and support 👍🏻
@@MarkJRatcliffeArt Cheers Mark.
