- My ‘Tape Technique’ is a funny little technique which I’ve found is abit like Marmite… people either love it or hate it! 😆🙈
But I read this quote once by Alexander Calder once and it’s always stuck with me:
“Above all, Art should be fun”
… and that’s exactly what this style is 🥰🎨
#artprocess #acrylicpainting #abstractart
To give you a little background, I started painting originally for stress relief and therapy when I suddenly started having seizures 3 months before I was due to graduate from a Physiotherapy degree! My whole life turned upside down as you can imagine. But I believe ‘Everything happens for a reason’ and I couldn’t imagine my life without my art now.
In 2018 I was discovered by a Publisher, Artko Ltd, who supply framed prints of my work to shops throughout the UK. My bestselling pieces are my ‘Love Trees’.
My work is currently in various shops including John Lewis and Dunelm and links to these can be found below…

I ship my artwork Worldwide and so far have shipped my work to the USA, New Zealand, Australia, Japan, Germany, Malta, Amsterdam, Spain, Italy and Ireland.

You’re very welcome glad you like it, thank you 🥰🎨
Oh you’re gonna think I’m a real big pain. So what is the ratio of pouring medium water in paint if it’s a trade secret all understand if you don’t want to share your recipe. I started painting about five years ago and I’m not an artist at all but I enjoy painting. When I’m painting Timeflies, and before you know it been painting for hours. I stopped painting about a year ago but when I saw your creations I was inspired. I’m in awe of the way you designed your “artist she shed”. Your studio is charming, cozy, creatively efficient and well thought out.
Ohh I love that! My ‘Studio She Shed’ 🤣🥰🎨 Thank you I put a lot of thought into it as it has so many uses I need it to work for… my ‘display/viewing’ area when clients come for a viewing, my packaging area, drying area, and of course my painting area.
No it’s not a trade secret but I really don’t know a particular ratio I’m afraid 🙈 I literally work by eye. Not too runny and not too thick. Sometimes I start ‘sprinkling’ the paint and it’s too thick so I add more water or mediums and vice versa… too runny and I add more paint again. It’s more about what ‘feels’ right for me. Hope that helps 😊🎨
@@LittleDotArt , I get it. Your verbiage to explain how you dilute. The paint is exactly wording I can understand. I’m a big believer in going with your intuitive, gut instinct. Something no one ever talks about is how you clean out your bottles that you used to mix paint in. I want to be green and not wash it down my sink I’m thinking of using a little corner in my yard to rinse my brushes and bottles out, make a mosaic of paint in the dirt lol. What is your method to wash out your used paint bottles so you can reuse them
@@almacade1527I generally let them dry and just keep using them 🙈🎨
You are a breath of fresh air! After running into thousands jumping on the paint pouring art, I was
ecstatic when I came across your art! Amazing! Now THIS is ART!! You are incredibly talented!
@@1toughmama You are SO kind! Thank you 🥹🥰🎨🥹

This was so fun and fascinating to watch...thanks so much for bringing us along on an incredible process. I learned so much! Two questions - who is that beautiful beastie you were talking to and laughing with? I will have to go and see if I can find a full body view of this marvelous study buddy. And, more of an observation than question, I suppose. I absolutely love the finished product, and loved it unframed. The white frame added at the end, for me, seemed to create an artificial boundary to what seemed a snapshot of a grand forest. Just a thought. Thank you! 🙏
Thank you glad you enjoyed it and that’s the only thing with frames, sometimes it does kinda add a barrier yet it also adds a little extra too I feel.
I left it up to the client to chose and they chose the white frame. 🥰🤍
❤
🥰🎨
Merveilleux et fantastique 👍
Petite question
Avant de commencer ton tableau sais tu déjà ce que tu veux créer....ou alors c est en peignant que tu te sens inspirée ?
Merci
Bisous à chunky
Thank you 🐾 and Thank you 🥰🎨
Mostly I have a plan in my head of what I’m going to paint, but sometimes things alter as I paint depending on the feeling I get from them. ☺️
Absolutely beautiful. Light and airy. Wonderful. But I do have to ask how much paint does the fog get on him/her? Couldn’t resist. Seriously. Excellent work.
Glad you like it 🥰🎨
Супер ❤❤❤
Thank you 🥰🎨
Красиво ... Интересно ... И самое главное - неожиданно ... Сколько у тебя фантазии !!!! Ты сама это все придумываешь ?
Thank you glad you like it. Yes it’s a technique I thought of 😊🎨
Awesome colours and art 😊 what’s the Golden white paste you are using?
Thank you it’s titanium white heavy body acrylic paint 🥰🎨
Interesting 🤩 You paint with such a natural flow and your choice of colours is very nice. Thanks for sharing.
Love to see more detailed videos of your work and tutorials 😀
@@user-gv7kt6no7f Glad you like it thank you 😊🎨
How brave of you to put a nice blanket and pillows in your painting space haha
😂 It’s in my art studio so it doesn’t matter if it gets a splatter of paint on it 🥰🎨

This video came across my TH-cam feed and I am obsessed 😍. I've watched it about 20 times, and then watched all your other videos and shorts. Process question...do you let each layer dry before moving on.
I want to make my own feeble attempt at something like this.
Bless you THANK YOU 🥹🥹🥹 Glad you enjoyed them. So it really depends I’m afraid. Generally I do a few layers at once before letting them dry 🥰🎨
Hello, love the joy in your work. Can you pls tell me what type of paint you use? Are you using some type of gel medium as well? Thanks
Hi I use acrylic paints. I sometimes use mediums depending on different effects I want but for this piece it was just Acrylic paint 🥰🎨
Lovely piece. Someone in comments asked ratios and mentioned pouring medium, do you have that in your mix or is it just paint and water thanks
I always have some ‘medium’ in my paints whether it’s pouring medium or glaze etc adding water alone makes the paint too weak and brittle 🎨😬
C’est superbe !! ❤ 🤩🤩 Quelles sont vos couleurs acryliques utilisées ? ( Quels rouges et roses par ex) .....
Magenta is my favourite pink but I do mix my own colours often. I don’t use red much (even though there’s a funny red/coral colour at the beginning of the video which I was painting over)
How do you water down the paint so that you can make the drips on the canvas?
There’s various products you can use, I mainly use water and pouring medium but it really depends on the effect I’m after as to what I add if that makes sense 😊🎨
Пироги пекла - а ворота в тесте! 😁😁😁
🎨🥰
Very nice. The Golden jug container is gesso?
Thank you it’s Heavy body acrylic paint 🥰🎨
짝짝짝 짝짝짝
🎨🤣
👍🙋
😊🎨
I wonder if I could do something like this with watercolor?
You’ll have to give it a go 🥰🎨
بالتوفيق والنجاح الدائم يارب العالمين 🌹 جديده عندك يدوم التواصل
Bless you thank you 🥰🎨
What was in the white bottle you used at the end what is that called
The big white pot? That was Golden heavy body paint in titanium white 🥰🎨
Ma’am ur dog is getting into ur stuff under ur table as you paint
Haha he loves it, it was his Bone he was trying to get 🥰🦴🐾
Yep,that’s how my clothes look after a project
Haha yep 😆🎨
If any interest I have recently put some of my music out to streaming sites.
I think it could work with your videos
Debbie Erlandson
Relaxing melodies, of my own I play by ear , I think I do music like you paint..as it flows from heart
Bless you thank you for thinking of me
There arent any other copy or same as this. Because reality is not important in your work
😊🎨
