Kathy you did an amazing job demonstrating on all the recipes for the pour, the pigments, the paint everything you did. Awesome job, thank you to you and Phil
Kathy....I’ve watched so many artists but nobody has explained the bloom the way you do. I’ve even taken the course but wasn’t sure I understood. Thanks to you, I now do and will try my first one today. Thank you, thank you
Thank you for taking the time to make this video! The visual of each different ingredient helped tremendously. Seeing the base white house paint, the triple-thick, etc in their containers makes it so much easier to understand and know what to purchase. One question..... what is the difference between pigment powder vs mica powder?
It's me again Kathy I just went into my craft room and I'm looking at all the pre-made paints & like what do I do with those now cuz I know they're mixed up wrong but I'm going to get it right thanks to you and Phil thank you
Thank you so very much for your detailed recipe and explanation. This was by far the best information I have found to date and I will be buying the right products and see what happens. Your are real great.Thanks
Hi beautiful Kathy, Thank You so much for this informative video. I took shots of the recipe printed on the screen. Thank You Phil, that was helpful. Katy you did a very good job with your explanation of all products. Love ya!
Thank you for your time sharing you recipes.i have been trying everything to do the bloom mixed your recipe up and it worked wonderful. .I can't always get colour Arte but your other recipe worked wonderful for me also. Again thank you so much.
Greetings from Scotland. Thanks for sharing all your knowledge. I am just starting out, and have so much to learn. I know your formulas will help me a lot, saving me time and money. Just hope I can get everything i need in Edinburgh at BQ. It’s been quite Challenging trying to get floetro in the uk. Did not Realise you could get different variations of it in Britain, America and Australia, and each country claiming they’re is the best, Lol. I Love watching your art channel and admire your wonderful work. I can't wait to start Experimenting and having fun myself.
Thank you Kathy for the details and First time watching you. The two of you are great partners. Question, when would you use Glue PM vs. Floetrol PM. Certain Techniques? Also, how do you use pigments for a Dutch pour? Would you thin them down?
Thank you so much, I’m not to sure how long ago you filmed this but I’ve only just started getting into this in this last month, I’ve tried so many times & FAILED every single time now that I’ve watched this I’m looking forward for the sun to come up so I can give it ago, well Sydney is in lockdown at the moment so I’m hoping I have most of this gear already, so I’m so so SOOOOOO thankfull you for sharing your secret recipes with us, hopefully 🙏 I I can start creating some beautiful artwork just like you
just got some treadmill oils hoping it helps with cells, been trying to use the dimethicone 100% and never seen to get anything. thank you so much for the video for the recieps
I agree with Phil, the information is confusing. I for one appreciate his jumping in and asking clarifying questions. Sometimes when we've done something a bunch of times we lose sight that our audience doesn't know everything we do and we skip steps. So I say to Phil, "Keep asking questions, they're very helpful!" 😉 I got lost almost from the beginning; the glue recipe for a PM is to mix with your colored paints, correct? And the Floetrol recipe is for your base? So this means you use two different recipes for one painting?
Thank you so much for taking the time to show us your recipes. I’m a newbie and have seen sooooo many recipes I have brain overload. I need to concentrate on beginners as I think I skipped that step lol
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. Just love you two. Do tell....what would the 80/40/30 combo on colored paints be - if using cheaper paints such as deco art, applebarrel, etc?? Can't afford the big name stuff yet - or see paying that until I feel my paintings are decent. Would you just not add the distilled water? This looks like a zero trace to me. Even thinner than the Glue-All PM you just showed. I feel my paints need to be thinner, so I'm anxious to try your recipe. Thanks guys!!! You rock!! So fun too watch. Love, love, love!
Hi Kathleen, your explanations were extremely clear, however, perhaps I missed something though: If you are mixing your pigments with the vivid enamel & rustoleum, and then use this same mix for your tube paints, what exactly is the Glueall & Water PM used for? Thank you.
@@PaintPouringbyKathleenMiller Wow! I've been watching your videos for the last 2 hours! You must have felt my vibes! LOL! I cannot believe Tiffany has a daughter. I thought she could be her daughters age! Your girls are beautiful and so very sweet too! Thanks for your response!😍💐🐇💗💕
Were/are you a teacher? Your instructions are so clear and concise. I haven’t been able to get a good bloom yet, and your recipe may have just solved my problem!! I’ll have to let you know - I usually paint Wednesday or Friday then one weekend day. You guys are great, Phil’s questions are often what is going thru head! You work well as a team. I use a (used) glove, inside out to cover my leftover paints, when I don’t have a cover for that container Gloves then get a double-triple life.
why would you use the rust-oleum, vivid enamel with the paint instead of glue or Floetrol. I'm just trying to learn. I understand the floetrol helps with cells and make the paint flow better, but I just don't know why people use rust-oleum and vivid enamel with the paint. Thank you so much for this I'm taking notes:) Christy from Va
I might have missed it but did you say anything about mixing paints with the different pouring mediums? Like some with glue and some with flotrol? I was just wondering how they played together in a painting.
Good day okay so the first recipe is for your Drizzle? (OMG your Drizzles are so amazing,) Second is for like dirty and flip cup, third the activator for swipes. Fourth for Blooms and pigments. (sorry super new to paint all together, mostly done dirty pours, do not have pigments of any kind as of yet) (just saw link for the drizzle recipe)
Hey Paws yes watch the drizzle recipe and I have a link for ColourArte pigments you can save 20% off of your entire order so please use the link in my videos to save some money🥰
I just love and learn so much from you. In making the cell activator if I choose to use the Golden heavy body is it still 1 tsp. per ounce of American Floetrol?
Thank you so much for this video. I just have one question. You said the Glue all mixture is just a pouring medium but not a basecoat. What would you use for the basecoat if you are using the Glue All mix for a PM?
Yes im wondering the same thing. My guess is that if you are wanting your paint to flow like on a pour or if you plan to tilt etc that you would want it thinner. Otherwise maybe just regular house paint? Also, with the glue and water mixture, my assumption is that you wont get any cells. Is the glue recipe one you would add a drop or two of silicone to in order to get the cell effect?
Is the second option for the pigments 3 oz. and 2 oz. or 3 oz. and 1 oz? The description read 3 oz. of Vivid Enamel and 2 oz. of the Polyacrylic. During the video, I thought Kathy said 1 oz. of the Polyacrylic. Thank you for sharing your amazing creations!
Does it have to be Amsterdam black paint or can I use any other type of paint with the floetrol for the blooms or the cells I mean love your work everything is so beautiful
Kathleen...Your pours are always fabulous!!!! I have 2 questions... you use elmers glue? i had seen somewhere that you would have to be concerned that the glue would yellow over time? and also I have heard you say several different color names of the Colourarte Mango something etc....colors and when i go to their site none of those colors are on there? also do you find that buying the pigments versus bottle/tube paints is any different in cost?
Thanks for doing this so exact! In Sweden it´s hard to find Floetrol. Do you think the measures are the same with ex Liquirwx or Pebeo pouring mediums?
Hi Kathy! I love your creations! And thank you do much for all of your instruction and helpful tips! Do you have a transcript of your recipes that you could email?
I have been trying to find the white color place paint to use in some of your recipes Walmart claims they no longer sell the paint that says white. It is now called bright white/light base. Is this the same paint and can I use this paint for the bloom along with the polyurethane matt if I am using the satin paint. Also if I use the semi gloss. bright white ,do I need to use the polyurethane that is also semi gloss
Kathy, I’ve watched this before, which is awesome by the way, however., this time I heard you mention Burgundy, I can’t find one that is beautiful. Where do you get yours? Thanks soooo much!
Crystal my base is color place from Walmart and I add golden fluid acrylic for color pl subscribe to my TH-cam channel Paint Pouring by Kathleen Miller if you haven’t already I would love to have you join our family if you have more questions just ask🥰
Vivid Enamel is not available in Canada and the cost of shipping from the US is twice the cost of the product with the exchange rate, 15% taxes plus whatever duties there might be. Is there another enamel that might work in the house paint line or say DecorArt Satin Enamel? Thanks for sharing that beautiful drizzle, swipe, wreck, spin technique!
Hi. Can your recipe be used with all types of pigments. And I have just bought Colourarte and was told to buy the vivid polypour . Will that be ok as i didnt get the Vivid enamel?
Thanks so much for replying. I also see you add pigments to paints sometimes. How do you do this as I have some pigments that are more Shiny than colour so I just want to add them to my paint but I don't want to have the grainy texture. What would the recipe be for this? :)
Sherry you can use the ca in other creations also colourate is pigments and you can mix paint and Pigment with the vivid enamel please watch video 410 for my recipes
So I understand the 80 4030 we go for like that fours in and flip cups I’m assuming dirty pores and what not I’m a little confused on the glue and water pouring medium what do you use those for them I getting it right you use those just for swiping
@@PaintPouringbyKathleenMiller I just read over what I had written here and I hate it when this iPad says what it wants. So do you have video numbers for me to see you using the glue and water pouring medium on projects?
I really enjoy your videos. You both make a cute couple. I just have one question. I found Color Place Interior Paint Ready to use - Satin at Walmart, but the name said Classic on it. Will that paint work for the bloom painting?
well mesg too quickly~ LOL....sorry for all the questions.. appreciate your information. I continued watching and your mixing polyurethane with your pigments... so is your canvas then sealed automatically? then using the Josana varnish to thin? why that instead of water?
Hey Kathy no you have to seal your canvas with high gloss varnish or resin them I always use the Jo Sonja to thin my paints and the water for my pigments not to much just a little to get the consistency you are looking for🥰
I know that glue is acidic, but is the reason one used Glue-All instead of School Glue because the former is more PH neutral, so more archival ,quality?
@@PaintPouringbyKathleenMiller not like yours correct? I just ordered the right stuff. Will try Bear base 3 with the polyurethane until it comes😭😭😭. Thanks Kathy
Do you have a scale that measures quantities as well as weight? Most scales measure weight eg grams or ounces, but you seem to be measuring volumes in mls instead of weight. I’m a bit confused! 🤪🇦🇺✌️👍
Thank you so much for the tutorial. For me it was super informative. I have seen so many different recipes. But I do need to ask do you mix your arteza pigment the same way you mix your primary element pigments? Again thank you in advance for your response. You're a sweet lady. And I love Phil... what an adorable couple you are!
@@PaintPouringbyKathleenMiller I must have seen you using arteza pigments in another style of pouring. I have my arteza pigment I just have no idea how to mix them. Could you enlighten me as to how you mix yours? I would be forever grateful
@@carrollduran4346 Kira ACrylics has a channel on youtube and she has several videos showing how she works with Arteza Mica powders. Watch video #69, 70, and 72. I believe she has more videos with Arteza Mica Powder. She is a young girl, and she is good!
@@PaintPouringbyKathleenMiller I have just gotten into pour painting since the pandemic. Watching it is more zen than DOING it, though! I watched another artist, Gail Burstyn, do schmears, applying the cell activator with a cake knife. Fun. She used a ratio of 1 part Amsterdam black oxide or titanium white to 4 parts Floetrol. It worked for me. You use 1 part paint to 2 parts Floetrol, right? I have everything in place except the puppy pool, because I can' t wait to try your stained glass. My daughter, a sculptor, produced 2 turntables for me! I am a laboratory scientist by profession ( retired), and therefore pretty anal. I got big and small cells with Gail's method. I can't wait to try yours! Wish me luck!
Sorry to bother you again... But this video for another Option you say 3oz. Deep base paint to 1part poly. To be clear 1 part is 1 oz.? I love you videos and aspire to do something close 😍
Where does the poly Kralik come in? I noticed that you use the vivid enamel in both concoctions, but I didn’t see where you use the poly acrylic. I’m a little confused (no, I’m a lot confused!!) Will you please help me? I watch so many videos that my eyes are now crossed and I decided to pick one artist to follow and I’m following you. I appreciate so much that you’re giving us The correct recipes, but I don’t understand where the poly acrylic comes in. I didn’t see it in your demonstration. It could be because since they were such big cans you couldn’t use the big cans so you had to put stuff in small cups so they’re for the Cubs didn’t have the same labelling as the cans. I hope I’m not confusing you!! Please please please help to UNconfuse me
I use the vivid enamel and the rustoleum triple thick for my drizzle recipe and blooms i really don;t use the polyacrylic that much lately but I will get back to you with that question.
Paint Pouring by Kathleen Miller Thank you! I look forward to that answer. I appreciate you getting back to me so quickly. You always answer my questions, and I find that so refreshing. I love how artists will help other artists. I’m a textile artist “by trade“, but I fell in love with acrylic painting. Or I should say I phone in love with the “pouring and “… I just wish I had more successes. I think I’m using too small of a canvas as well. I know the blue technique using the small canvas and the spend table or cake table but as far as actual paint pouring and moving paint around on the canvas, I’m having a lot of trouble. Who am I kidding? I’m having troubleWith all of it!

Can I use the cell activator in other pours but in doin a bloom I have to use the colourart paints when using the vivdenal misture
Sherry you can use the ca in other creations also colourate is pigments and you can mix paint and Pigment with the vivid enamel please watch video 410 for my recipes
So I understand the 80 4030 we go for like that fours in and flip cups I’m assuming dirty pores and what not I’m a little confused on the glue and water pouring medium what do you use those for them I getting it right you use those just for swiping
Sometime for Dutch pours and swipes.
@@PaintPouringbyKathleenMiller I just read over what I had written here and I hate it when this iPad says what it wants. So do you have video numbers for me to see you using the glue and water pouring medium on projects?
Enjoyed video but what’s is the minwax used for?
Margaret you can add a few drops to the ca if you need more cells.
Great information. So much to learn
Thank you Mary🥰
Thank you for such an excellent teaching video! Carylou fr NC🙂
My pleasure.
Hey Kathleen. Does the Canadian floetrol work the same as the American??
Hey Chelsea I use Australian Floetrol 🥰
@@PaintPouringbyKathleenMiller ok, does it work the same as Canadian floetrol? I'm in Canada, is why I ask
Hi Kathy! Do you thin down your house paint base?
No I don't. It is straight house paint only.
Can you replace the vivid enamel with anything else if you can’t get it?
I don't.
Does it absolutely have to be distilled water for floetrol pour?
No.
@@PaintPouringbyKathleenMiller Thank you so much for answering. I didn't really expect you to see the question. Love your channel & work!!!😃♥️
The was nice. You guys be safe and well.
Thank you Pam you also stay safe and healthy 🥰
I really enjoy your videos. You both make a cute couple. I just have one question. I found Color Place Interior Paint Ready to use - Satin at Walmart, but the name said Classic on it. Will that paint work for the bloom painting?
Rent event I only use colorplace interior ready to use white satin so I don’t know 🥰
Thank you, Kathy!
You are very welcome Patricia.
Kathi how do I thicken up the cell activator if it’s running like water off my stick or is running off my stick like water OK
Christie what kind of paint are you using🥰
@@PaintPouringbyKathleenMiller Amsterdam lamp black
@@christiewoods7565 your consistency is off you never thicken the ca and it should be thinner then the other paints 🥰
@@PaintPouringbyKathleenMiller thank you, it’s definitely thinner lol
well mesg too quickly~ LOL....sorry for all the questions.. appreciate your information. I continued watching and your mixing polyurethane with your pigments... so is your canvas then sealed automatically? then using the Josana varnish to thin? why that instead of water?
Hey Kathy no you have to seal your canvas with high gloss varnish or resin them I always use the Jo Sonja to thin my paints and the water for my pigments not to much just a little to get the consistency you are looking for🥰
Great reminder video!! 👏👏
Thank you Kreative Rainbow.
@@PaintPouringbyKathleenMiller You are quite welcome! 💙💜
I know that glue is acidic, but is the reason one used Glue-All instead of School Glue because the former is more PH neutral, so more archival ,quality?
Karen, I have never tried school glue.
can I use colourarte PolyPour instead of enamel and varnish??
You can, but it will turn out like my creations.
@@PaintPouringbyKathleenMiller not like yours correct? I just ordered the right stuff. Will try Bear base 3 with the polyurethane until it comes😭😭😭. Thanks Kathy
@@MzShoe it will not 🥰
Is the cell activator recipe the same for the Australian floetrol?
Yes Melanie 🥰
Do you have a scale that measures quantities as well as weight?
Most scales measure weight eg grams or ounces, but you seem to be measuring volumes in mls instead of weight.
I’m a bit confused!
🤪🇦🇺✌️👍
Susan my scale measures grams,oz,ml,ct,kg,tl,fl:oz,lb:oz you can use what ever you want I use ml.
@@PaintPouringbyKathleenMiller Thank you, that answers my question too!
Thank you so much for the tutorial. For me it was super informative. I have seen so many different recipes. But I do need to ask do you mix your arteza pigment the same way you mix your primary element pigments? Again thank you in advance for your response. You're a sweet lady. And I love Phil... what an adorable couple you are!
Thank you Carroll I only use ColourArte pigments 🥰
@@PaintPouringbyKathleenMiller I must have seen you using arteza pigments in another style of pouring. I have my arteza pigment I just have no idea how to mix them. Could you enlighten me as to how you mix yours? I would be forever grateful
@@carrollduran4346 Kira ACrylics has a channel on youtube and she has several videos showing how she works with Arteza Mica powders. Watch video #69, 70, and 72. I believe she has more videos with Arteza Mica Powder. She is a young girl, and she is good!
@@lilianshelton4290 thank you so much for the information! I will definitely look her up this week. Your input was greatly appreciated!
what is your mix for doing a swipe?
I use the recipe in this video: th-cam.com/video/t_NhVS1VipI/w-d-xo.html
What do you use as a cell activator?
View th-cam.com/video/ROoc5JWLv7U/w-d-xo.html to get a detailed explanation.
Great video! Thank you so much!
You are welcome Jodie🥰
What's the difference between Australian and American floetrol?
This video will show the difference: th-cam.com/video/PrJ5M_RaaKU/w-d-xo.html
Thank you for sharing💚💙💛🤗
You are very welcome Colleen 🥰
What is the reason for using distilled water ?
No reason that’s just what I use Sammy🥰
The distilled water won't mold if it is left to sit. Tape water and bottled water will eventually start smelling like old socks.
Is there any silicone in your cell activator?
No
@@PaintPouringbyKathleenMiller Thank you. Congratulations on selling out your black magic.
Can you use other powder pigments instead of color art...thanks i have pearl ex...thanks
Yes Mary you can Colourarte is also powder pigments.
@@PaintPouringbyKathleenMiller thanks
What is the ratio of paint to AUSSIE Floetrol?
Here is my updated Recipe video: th-cam.com/video/ROoc5JWLv7U/w-d-xo.html
You should put a marble in each bottle to help mix up your paint
Hey Cathy I find it makes to many bubbles.
Great video!
Thank you Janet.
@@PaintPouringbyKathleenMiller I have just gotten into pour painting since the pandemic. Watching it is more zen than DOING it, though! I watched another artist, Gail Burstyn, do schmears, applying the cell activator with a cake knife. Fun. She used a ratio of 1 part Amsterdam black oxide or titanium white to 4 parts Floetrol. It worked for me. You use 1 part paint to 2 parts Floetrol, right? I have everything in place except the puppy pool, because I can' t wait to try your stained glass. My daughter, a sculptor, produced 2 turntables for me! I am a laboratory scientist by profession ( retired), and therefore pretty anal. I got big and small cells with Gail's method. I can't wait to try yours! Wish me luck!
@@janetboyle3432 let me know how it goes 🥰
Sorry to bother you again... But this video for another Option you say 3oz. Deep base paint to 1part poly. To be clear 1 part is 1 oz.? I love you videos and aspire to do something close 😍
You are correct
Where does the poly Kralik come in? I noticed that you use the vivid enamel in both concoctions, but I didn’t see where you use the poly acrylic. I’m a little confused (no, I’m a lot confused!!) Will you please help me? I watch so many videos that my eyes are now crossed and I decided to pick one artist to follow and I’m following you. I appreciate so much that you’re giving us The correct recipes, but I don’t understand where the poly acrylic comes in. I didn’t see it in your demonstration. It could be because since they were such big cans you couldn’t use the big cans so you had to put stuff in small cups so they’re for the Cubs didn’t have the same labelling as the cans. I hope I’m not confusing you!! Please please please help to UNconfuse me
I use the vivid enamel and the rustoleum triple thick for my drizzle recipe and blooms i really don;t use the polyacrylic that much lately but I will get back to you with that question.
Paint Pouring by Kathleen Miller Thank you! I look forward to that answer. I appreciate you getting back to me so quickly. You always answer my questions, and I find that so refreshing. I love how artists will help other artists. I’m a textile artist “by trade“, but I fell in love with acrylic painting. Or I should say I phone in love with the “pouring and “… I just wish I had more successes. I think I’m using too small of a canvas as well. I know the blue technique using the small canvas and the spend table or cake table but as far as actual paint pouring and moving paint around on the canvas, I’m having a lot of trouble. Who am I kidding? I’m having troubleWith all of it!
