I loved watching you creating art in the style of ............ I want you to show us you at your work, Do it with love, forget the money, that will come
Since you are still active on here; question: Did you ever use a pipettes (plastic droppers) to paint Pollock style paintings to get smooth lines? Michael's Art Stores has them in stock. I plan on trying some out today. Using BEHR PREMIUM Urethane Alkyd Semi-Gloss Enamel Interior/Exterior Paint works great for Pollock style painting, without having to add any water to it to get smooth, straight lines. It dries fairly quickly too (overnight). I can understand why you gave up, based upon this video. I personally just give away my paintings to friends and family to see their faces light up! No, we will never make any money with our paintings. Everyone these days is an artist! Suggestion: Read Andy Weir's novels. Using his style of humor, with Science Fiction, with correct Space details, and "real" stories to be told about Space, would be a good direction to go into. A second movie of Weir's is in production now (Project: Hail Mary). If he can do it, then so can you!
I used the pipettes sold at Michaels, but there were a couple of issues. The ones sold at Michaels are a little to small for my taste. They don't pull in enough paint (but close!). And, because they are a little two small the amount of suction of the thicker paint that we use makes it hard to pull in enough paint. The ones sold at Michaels have these specs listed, and they are to small to use for Pollock style paintings: "0.06 fl. oz. (2 mL) pipette volume". If there are larger sizes available on Amazon I may try them instead.
I really liked your paintings and watching your process videos. Would love to see more of that. Please keep painting.
dear Coty, I hope you start painting again ;I wish you all the best for the future

No I never used pipettes. That's an interesting thought though. And thank you for sharing.
I'll be using them in the next two days and will report back if they work worth a darn! :)
