    Acrylic Pour Cells Experiment - what creates the best cells? Floetrol produces cells on its own, so what is the difference in cells when mixed with silicone vs no silicone?
    Let me know if you want me to do the same experiment with dish soap and alcohol! This tutorial will be beneficial for Acrylic Pouring Beginners.
    I hope you enjoyed the process and looking forward to hearing from you :)

    It is a matter of preference. I, personally don't use silicone very often, because I like the challenge of creating cells, using the right mixture of paint with Floetrol. DecoArt pouring medium also produces cells, so I often combine Floetrol with decoart p.m. As my pouring medium.

    I prefer the larger cells; amazing result from 1 silicone drop in 1 colour. I'm learning so much from you, Olga. Impatiently awaiting delivery of torch so I can start my first pour. I've watched loads of vids; everyone has different opinion & method of mixing, pouring medium recipe, paint application etc. Some tilt almost vertical all around without centering paint between. Some say use hairdryer instead of torch...it's all so confusing, I decided to follow your way because of all other works & vids, yours are most honest & informative. I'm sure many other would-be pourers feel the same.

    • @OlgaSoby
      @OlgaSoby  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you so much Helen! You're right there many approaches and ways of doing pouring techniques and mixing. I'm happy to hear you find my approach usefull. Just one thing - I don't think hairdrier and torch are interchangeable. Blow drier works great for moving and blowing the paint, while torch is great for popping air bubbles and can also help with cells.

    Hi @Smart Art Materials & Techniques Olga.
    You looked like you were playing the maracas at the start, very funny! I really liked the first pour today, it looked so satisfying as you spread it through the funnel, and the cell formation was quite rich, but the second pouring?!? Wow, just one single drop of silicone and you get that much reaction, I wonder what would happen with the same amount added to three or even four colors? Have you tried this as an experiment? I guess a black base paint would give a good effect but with brighter, more vibrant colors.
    Keep up the great work, and I'll be looking for your next video.

    I have been watching this channel a while now, and last Friday i did my first pour. Immediately followed by 2 more, and am currently prepping 2 more 18x24 canvases for todays pours. As fun as it is to watch it is twice was fun to do. Totally addicted and love the videos. I am currently using decoart pouring medium (it was cheap on sale) and random 2 oz acrylic paints i had laying around. I have been mixing by eye for viscosity rather than by weight as all the paints i have are different. Super fun thanks for the videos.

      @@OlgaSoby My first two pours were flip cup pours. the first was on a dry white canvas with what ended up to be way too much black mixed with a neon green a blue and white. the colors had silicone, but the black took over most of the colors. the second i put way too much silicone in the green and blue, but it came out cool. the third i poured black on the center of the canvas and in the corners. next i mixed metallic gold with 3 drops of silicone and then orange and black with no silicone. this time i did a slow pour starting in the center working my way out. It came out so good I can't wait to do more. Next I will do another pour like my third attempt, but then i want to try maybe the "kiss pour" or a "swipe". Id love to share pictures of them for feedback if there is a forum or an email. Either way thanks for the videos i have been binge watching you and another youtuber for tips and techniques all weekend.

Although I would like to see a series, using one drop, two drops, three drops, none. ...in the white and a dominate color, as well, a complimentary color scheme, such as blue, green and orange.

      @@OlgaSoby we use a pre mixed medium from a discounter. It was for trying. My son is 7 years old but now we know he really likes it so we are looking for better materials.

      @@maxpro5467 hi Jolanda, so to be honest with you, I don't think Floetrol is a good option if you are working with your son. It's not good for skin contact, and overall definitely not designed to be used by kids. I think a non-toxic glue and non-toxic paints would be a much better and safe option. Please do your research first and read the MSDS of any product you are planning to use.

    I do like them both, but that being said, the silicone one I prefer because of the larger more structured cells. I have found in my pourings that just Floetrol gives tiny, unstructured cells that seem to go very wobbly and undefined, if that makes any sense lol .. thank you for your comparison ... they are both beautiful .. much luv

I think I use floetrol in almost, almost everything I do. Do you have a recommendation for a pouring medium that is not as costly as liquitex, that does just as good ?

    I like bits of both oil-vs-none...I wonder what would happen if a dab of oil was dropped directly onto the canvas? that way maybe both effects can be achieved?

    • @OlgaSoby

      If you drop silicone on top, it creates a so-called chameleon cells effect - th-cam.com/video/oCP_pYEHNIg/w-d-xo.html
