You don’t ramble & we all have our own “key words” that is our ‘tell’, but that’s our ‘thing’. You have been sooooo helpful to this newbie! I thank you! God bless the mouth of babes and You!
Hi Kanella I really enjoy your paintings in teaching us. Saying so all the time is fine, when someone says you know you know you know all the time that is very annoying. So just keep saying what you’re saying because we all love you very much.
Very very helpful video …many thanks….varnishing has always been very stressful process for me…many a ruined painting. Will try your technique. Thank you
I have a bunch of varnish brands I am about to test out and also a sondiko torch which I have never used & am not familiar with torches yet & have asked a few fb paint pour groups if it is safe to torch bubbles from any brand of varnish and they said it''s not!?!?! I'm GLAD you demonstrated torching this brand of varnish to prove that you CAN do it safely! THANK YOU!
I just want to say that I own numerous pieces of your beautiful work and all have luscious flawless finishes. thank you so much for your attention to detail and SO much for sharing.
I have to tell you, what a life saver you are to me. I love watching your creations, have become my therapy from a life changing affect, doing this inspire me, you inspire me. I love ALL YOUR VIDEOS, beginning to end, helps me feel not so alone. Thank you for your guidance on all you do and say.
I love the fact that you don’t muck about with the backs of your paintings... I really like the messy backs as they feel a little more handmade to me. Thanks again for your awesome videos!
I’m a nail polish enthusiast. Experience with nail polish has taught me that rolling a bottle will mix without adding air bubbles that shaking does. Maybe it would work with the varnish.
What about resin on larger canvas? Won’t it puddle in the middle? Would you add something to the back then for strength. Loved both, but wow, that green one was amazing with the sparkle!
I’m sooooo glad I found your video, because it saved my paintings this week! I was initially using a foam brush, but then I decided to try the “tray method” with the tape around the canvas and tilting the varnish around and pouring it off the corner and for bigger canvases it gave me these little cracks!! After I watched your video and applied the varnish exactly how you did it, my next painting turned out perfectly!! Maybe the “tray method” works good for resin (I’ll watch your video for that), but I will never stray away from the “foam brush when varnishing” path again! Thank you!! 🥰
Thanks so much for showing this to us. I learned alot! Answered alot of questions I had about finishing our paintings! You always take time to explain so that even us newbies can understand! Thanks again! Really appreciate all you do for us!
Thank you for the great tutorial, varnish has been a struggle. Do you have a video on the second piece shown? I'm interested in the colors used and technique on the bloom, I am sheley member.
Thank you! Really useful information. The canvasses at the end? They’re all stunning, but the metallic green one, oh my goodness! I actually gasped! Honestly!! It is sooooooo beautiful, truly! By the way, we all have our own little foibles, and your Canadian accent is cute. Never apologise Kinella, it’s what makes you unique. Many thanks to you for this video. 🙏🙏😊
Thanks Kanella! I’ve had some issues with varnishing and I’ve watched quite a few videos to improve on this but I have to say watching yours is what finally makes it click for me! You explain things so clearly and in detail and I just love watching you create! 😁
Hi Kanella… I know your in the process of moving but I had a question if you have time. The painting canvas that sweet Lucas handed to you was GORGEOUS!!!! You said it was using Sheeleart (??) … I wondered if you have a video of that beauty and do you recommend the SheleArt coarse would I learn how to do that canvas??. Kanella I love Dutch pours and I know your videos by heart.. I know video #63 is awesome I refer it to everyone asking about mixing paints. Anyway, I hope your family and you have many great new adventures and memories in your new home. Thank you for all you do for us. God Bless 😍😍
Unfortunately I don’t know if there’s a video. I can’t really remember what I did over two years ago lol. Sorry. As for the Shelee class - it’s entirely up to you. But there are soooooo many artists on TH-cam now who share that information for free. I have a video with the entire bloom recipe as well. Video 131.
Thank you for sharing. This is a help. I have done this before, but the reminder is so helpful. You say "so," quite a bit, but it doesn't take away from your presentation. You are a wonderful artist. You share and teach, this is a blessing. We are grateful. Blessings to you and yours. Huggles always 👩🎨💖🇺🇸🍀🌻🌞
Thank you!!! Sooo many different varnishes, so any and all information is so welcomed, especially to us newbies!! I, too, say "so" alot, lol!! Anywho!!! 😂
Yeah, I started going back to your older videos as well. I was just turned onto this art form around May or June of last year. I fell in love with it and have been trying my hand at it since then. The varnish is the way I go until I can afford the resin, so I love any information I can get. Love watching you, love all the beautiful paintings you put out, and am grateful for your suggestions, techniques, and your humor. Love the pups and have watched Juno's channel as well. I appreciate you and always love watching!! Thank you for responding!! Also, since I started using your mixture ratios, my paintings are coming out better!! Thanks again!!
SO, I hadn't really noticed until Lucas pointed it out SO of course the OCD in me had to go back and listen again! UGH! SO, I think I may have missed a few but I counted 69 times! LOL!!! Too funny! SO who cares if you say SO, as long as you're doing what ya love and teaching us along the way?! SO yeah, we all have our little quirks. SO Thanks for the info, as always. :)
What's the difference between liquitex Gloss varnish and liquitex Gloss medium and varnish also which would you recommend being the better one for sealing paintings
Thank you for the video. I applied same varnish for the first time today and I had big cracks on it. Second layer saved it a bit but you can still see them. I have seen people having similar issues, but couldn’t find an answer why it cracks and how to prevent it. Do you know why it might happen?
I've had some issues with little bubbles in my varnish. They're something that really, only I see, and you can only really notice it if you hold the painting in an awkward angle to the light...but I always worry a client will frame their painting right across from a lamp or something, haha. I wonder if I should switch to a regular brush instead of a foam brush? It just seems to happen no matter what I do with the foam brush.
Wow Lucas kept count of have many times you said soooooo lol. I love it. Thanks for the information on how to varnish a painting and what brand you use. Very helpful!
Kanella....the one you showed at around 15:00 is so stunning. What colours did you use for that one and do you have the video? How long do you wait to varnish after a piece is done.
as soon as the piece is fully dry to the touch I resin or varnish. As for what colours... i wish i knew... cause I sooo want to do it again but I have no clue LOL
Hi! First timer here and enjoyed this very helpful video! One question, how long once you have completed varnishing can you store it, hang it or sell it? Thanks again for a great video😊
Thanks for the informative video. I have a question- Should I follow the same process for liquitex matte varnish? Should I put an isolation coat before? If yes, for both the questions what should be the wait dry time after painting to isolation coat and to varnishing? Please advise.
For the torch- can you just use a long lighter or some other heat source (hair dryer on low???) or would that not work on the bubbles? I know nothing about art but I wanted to try something out! This was helpful!
Thanks sooo much, I used spray varnish and it was a disaster, smells terrible, has to be done outside. I used Matt spray varnish and it changed the black on the canvas, destroyed the piece ..so glad to have you to teach us. Thanks for
#130 that painting is amazing it is beautiful the colors in there I want to make one so bad and I don't know what I'm doing wrong I wish I could figure it not sure if I put too much paint on the canvas
I’m a fairly new follower and noticed your newer videos you used resin. Do you now only resin? Does the size of the canvas determine if you varnish or resin? Do you recommend beginners varnish or resin? Pros and cons to each?
Yes I only use resin now. Haven’t used varnish in years. It’s a preference. Beginners can definitely do resin as well. I have a resin tutorial below th-cam.com/video/dEVdfuBeKt0/w-d-xo.html
How do you decide which to resin and which to varnish? Still new and want to try varnish on some, but was originally planning on resining all of my paintings. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks
When I made this video years ago I was varnishing most of my paintings, however a short while after i started to resin. I will never go back to varnish. I prefer resin. In my opinion it makes the piece look more professional and it also makes the colours pop more in the canvas. Again, this is my opinion and preference though. 😊
@@KanellaCiracoArt thanks for telling me that. Since I started, I was resining everything and wondered if there were some I should be varnishing. I love the look of resin for the same reasons you just stated but I was questioning myself. Thanks for your response.
I absolutely love that you said the back of a canvas tells a story! I did a custom order for a close friend when they dried enough to show him in person he wanted them right away while i was like I FORGOT TO TAPE THE BACK OF THIS AND IT'S GROSS. He did bat an eye, and said the same about no one else will see it. .... QUESTION Do you use any type of covers like plastic bins to keep dust from settling into the varnish? Covering resin pendants was a breeze as they were tiny, I'm not sure how to cover the random sizes of canvases and i swear no matter how much a sweep and dust it's neverending. ANY ADVICE WOULD BE HIGHLY APPRECIATED! great video!
Hi Kanella I just started pouring and enjoying it very much just varnished my first two pieces and my varnish dried like cracked glass HELP! Why would it do that? I've learned so much from you thank you for sharing your incredible talent!
I am very confsed, not sure if I should use varnish or resin. I saw another video where you used resin. Can you please claify, I am new to paint pouring. Also I have been using a spray for my acrylic paintings, should I use the varnish.
Thanks Kanella. Really informative video. How long should one wait to varnish before the paint cures. Great to have a talented artist as yourself in our Canada.
Do you ever need to wash the foam brush after varnishing, or all you do is wrap it in the plastic wrap and it stays that way all the time? I guess what I am asking is, does the varnish wash off with water? Thanks 😊
You know how different people have different views...well I've heard that I ought to wait 24-72 hours before I seal a painting & some say wait 1-2 wks! I am not looking to sell anything...just learning to do this dutch pour & also share some w/ others. I tried one today but it didn't work. Was I supposed to spray canvas w/ water first? Was I supposed to put white paint around the paints in the center? What temp. & speed should I use? I have a regular blow dryer w/ the flat attachment. I would appreciate your help! Thank you!
I don’t wait. As soon as it’s dry I resin (or varnish) my paintings. No need to spray the canvas. No you don’t need to put white around the paints. I use my hair dryer on low and it only blows hot air.
This was perfect and answered my questions. I love that your direct about your preferences. If it works for you in the outcome is what you want why I try a dozen other products? I’m new at this and I love it already so thanks for all of your excellent instruction
👍 Is it water based? It seems it can be used for several works... not too much is needed. Or not? How much did you used approximately for this work? Thank you
Which is better and why? Varnish or resin? If resin gives the colors, vibrancy, why use varnish? Just starting pour painting, so I am a newbie, trying to learn 🙂
Newbie here, I noticed you used varnish on one and resin on the other, is it because of the base material? What is the difference? Really enjoying your videos...thank you
Would you ever suggest using your gloved hands to rub the Liquitex varnish onto a canvas instead of a brush? I have seen artists do that with resin, so I wondered if the same would work????
I don’t think that would work but you could try it if you want. I personally wouldn’t risk ruining a painting to try it. My brush works just fine for me.
I love your art and have just recently started this myself. I am so inspired by your work and the results and i have tried a few time to do your art but fail miserably I have recently retired and gone back To art which i used to do around 35 years ago Continue and i watch all your videos learning new tricks. Thank you
Thank you Kanella! Great video, and you just cracked me up with your "so's"!! lololol You're "so" real!!
You don’t ramble & we all have our own “key words” that is our ‘tell’, but that’s our ‘thing’. You have been sooooo helpful to this newbie! I thank you! God bless the mouth of babes and You!
The small painting with resin on it reminds me of a beautiful Opal. I do love your videos.

You answered the questions I already had in mind to ask--clearly and concisely. Thank you--I learn such a lot from your videos.
Excellent video! I wanted to use Liquitex Gloss Varnish, so thx for a little tutorial on what works for you. Beautiful. ❤🙌
So very helpful! Do you have a video of the painting you varished? I would love to try it!

Thank you for sharing about how to apply the varnish our paintings and sharing your knowledge with us.
I love your art. Great instruction video. Thanks.
Thank you so much Kanella for all your tips..
Hi Lucas 💞💞💞
I wish i would have seen this before I started vanishing my pieces. Now I know better and will do better.
Hi Kanella, thanks for the tutorial. How do you clean the brush once you finish? Thanks!
Hot water.
I’m a nail polish enthusiast. Experience with nail polish has taught me that rolling a bottle will mix without adding air bubbles that shaking does. Maybe it would work with the varnish.
That was great. I learnt a lot about vanishing the board & finishing off.Thank you so much Kanella.
What about resin on larger canvas? Won’t it puddle in the middle? Would you add something to the back then for strength. Loved both, but wow, that green one was amazing with the sparkle!

Thanks. This is an old video actually. I no longer varnish any of my paintings. They all get resin top coats. 😊
Thank you! That was very helpful. I love watching you work. Beautiful!
A great video! Your little fellow Lucas is a super helper! You should be proud of him!!

You always make me laugh...😊...."soooo"....thank you for the tutorial!!

Do you frame your canvases? With glass or without glass? Love your signature on back.
No. I do not frame them
Amazing!!! Thank you! On the last one…. What colors did you use that shine like that? The yellow and green….metallic? Absolutely breathtaking!

👍 Is it water based? It seems it can be used for several works... not too much is needed. Or not? How much did you used approximately for this work? Thank you
OK if you don’t use silicone how do you get your great cells? Thank for sharing so much, love watching your videos.
Sonja Marie Ekrann Hammer floetrol creates the cells.
Kanella Ciraco Art Great! I will try without silicone! Thanks for your reply / truly appreciated.
Which is better and why? Varnish or resin? If resin gives the colors, vibrancy, why use varnish?
Just starting pour painting, so I am a newbie, trying to learn 🙂
Best ever tutorial!! Tysm!!!
Will white background acrylic pour paintings yellow overtime with this liquitex waterbased varnish
Soooooooooo helpful! Thank you for sharing and love your videos x
Thank you so much! A great video. I will give it a try now.
Newbie here, I noticed you used varnish on one and resin on the other, is it because of the base material?
What is the difference? Really enjoying your videos...thank you
EM M I used to use varnish on canvases and resin is for wood pieces.
But now I use resin on everything lol.
Just my preference
@@KanellaCiracoArt what kind of resin do you do you now use?
Could you please tell us about your torch that you use? Would like to get one, but unsure what to buy. Thank you!
Any culinary torch of amazon will do.
@@KanellaCiracoArt Thank you so much! Love your videos.
Would you ever suggest using your gloved hands to rub the Liquitex varnish onto a canvas instead of a brush? I have seen artists do that with resin, so I wondered if the same would work????
I don’t think that would work but you could try it if you want.
I personally wouldn’t risk ruining a painting to try it. My brush works just fine for me.
I love your art and have just recently started this myself. I am so inspired by your work and the results and i have tried a few time to do your art but fail miserably
I have recently retired and gone back To art which i used to do around 35 years ago
Continue and i watch all your videos learning new tricks. Thank you
