THANK YOU 🙏🏼 FINALLY someone who will post the way they mix and using what! People act like it's top secret information and if you know what they do/use you might out paint them. Like, come on, I'm BRAND NEW to this! I really appreciate you posting this 👍🏼
You're welcome Beth, I'm always happy to share 👍💙🐨
Thanks for sharing!!😁👏👏
I'm just starting out with fluid art and found this very helpful....demystifies what other artists won't share!😉👍
Glad we could help 👍🐨
Really helpful and interesting, thanku so much.
Wow big difference with the Lagoon when not mixed slowly and in small increments. Wouldn't of known that, thanks mate.

Thanks so much for taking the time and energy to put this video together Darren… it will really help me as I try my first Sheleeart Blooms!
I’ve only been Acrylic Pouring for about 4 months and, to date, have only done Dutch Pours and a couple of standard swipes (Beach Swipes)… with lots and lots of failures! 😝
I finally have all the ingredients to do a Shelee Bloom, I just have to pluck up the courage to actually give it a go!
There are hundreds of videos out there on how to mix your paints and how to execute the Shelleeart Bloom, but 99% of them are from US or Canadian artists, so they are of little help to us Aussies! 🇦🇺
And, I just wanted to say that I was gobsmacked by the difference between adding the PM slowly, versus all at once… absolutely crazy!! 😲
So, thanks again for being so thorough and, not only telling us how to, and why you do certain things… but showing us the differences!
You are an incredible teacher and I look forward to learning more from you.
One day soon, I hope to have my own channel, so I can pass on what I’ve learned from all the TH-cam artists and, give back, so to speak.
What holds me back is the fear of failure and the negative comments that go with those failures!! 😱
Love your videos. ♥️♥️🇦🇺
Thank you so much for the lovely comments, I find it's far better to show what I do and why I did it that way just so you can actually see the results. Never fear a failure, we all have them... just you never get to see them. You will have some people that just don't like your work or others that may leave some nasty comments but that's ok, it really does help us create better quality videos for others to enjoy. Feel free to join my group on Facebook ( paint pouring by venom fluid art ) it's a private group where artists can share their work without the fear of derogatory comments, we can give tips and tricks to help you on your fluid art journey & best of all its free.
Thank you so much for watching my videos and I'm glad I could help 🥰💜
Thx for sharing Venom. The problem is that untinted paint is not available in Holland, unfortunately there is no market for it. No Behr's and Taubmans or anything like that. Lacquers and stains are all liquid. An alternative is to thicken with firm gel and PVA 70/30. I have all types of Liquitex and Golden PM and it works very well and water remains my great friend.
Amazing tips and tricks that will have saved others plenty of time, supplies and money!! The difference adding the PM all at once was huge.
Thanks for another informative video 👍
Thank you alanas, glad I can help ♥️🐨
You r such a good teacher and I’m going to save your video, how ever is there another material u can mix with the Josonja to create the PM ? I can’t get them in my country even thru Amazon. Please 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 thanks very much
You are a very good teacher, you take the time to explain in great details, and demonstrate to make it very easy to follow. And when I make my attempt to do it, I have great success faster than when I follow other artists.
Thankyou for sharing your talents
Thank you so much Jill, I really appreciate your love and support 🐨❤️
Thank you so much for this video. It is right on time. You are a talented and generous artist. I am so glad I found your channel.
Blessings
Thank you so much Lillie ❤️🥰❤️🥰🚂🚂🚂🚂
Thanks so much Darren, for all the time you have put into doing the video to help us all, I’ll be off to Bunnings in the morning. Chrissy
So much good information. Thank you
I can’t wait for more of your videos on how you make your custom colors! They’re always so beautiful!
Thank you Anna, I should have some coming soon 👍🥰❤
@@venomfluidart looking forward to my subscription bell dinging! 🤩🥰
Great info!! Very descriptive 👍👍 Thank you for taking the time to post this 🤗
Thank you mama 😘 💓 💗
Absolutely love watching all your videos, the results you achieve are just fantastic, its just so sad when you mention the products you use, unfortunately in the UK we are unable to find them
Thanks for this video, Darren. I am so guilty of dumping my P.M into my paints 🤦♀️. I was surprised to see the difference, mixing it by small degrees made. Once again, thank you 🙏 for a great educational video 👏♥️
Thank you mell, it really does make a huge difference to your colours 👍🥰❤
Ahhhh the man with the voice and hands
Same and the science part of me cannot figure out why! I was SHOCKED to see the difference!
What exactly IS the difference?
Thanks for stressing the importance of mixing in your pouring medium a little at a time. I’ve watched thousands of videos, and never got it.
Such an awesome video you Smart Wombat!!! 🥰😘😘😘
Thank you desert bean 😘 💓
This is incredibly helpful for newbies & for changing bad habits for not so newbies D!❤️
Thank you so much ❣️ this was very helpful 😊
Hi there, thank you very much for your video about mixing mica interference pigments. I love how vibrant and bright your paintings are.
It was great to see the difference between adding and mixing slowly to keep the colour vibrant. I do, however, have a couple questions if that is okay...
I am wondering if you could help me please.
As yet, I haven't delved into fluid art as I come from a traditional painting background.
I have a painting idea I am really interested in exploring. You used Shelley's recommended untinted paint, which I have purchased. So this is my question, I am using the Pearl-Ex and want to make the paint colours to be as a hint of colour with lots of shimmer. Going by your demonstration adding the paint to the pigment in small batches it will keep its richness.. is that regardless of how much of the paint you add? You also said you often added double the amount of pigment...
In a long winded way,
I guess what I am really asking can the house paint be used to glaze. Phew, got there in the end. 😁 thank you so much for your time.
Great video in helping others!
Thank you luciana 🥰🥰🐨
Thanks for sharing with us. I will try your style out. Love all of your colors, pours and blow outs.
Thank you Juanita 🥰 ❤
Now that was the simplest mixing I've seen yet... Thank you very much... I also watched your cell video as well I was floored paint and water?? I'm putting this all together and try some swiping 😁 now if I can nail my swiping with a pallet knife all will be glorious 😁
Thank you so much. Excellent instructions ❤️🇨🇦
You're welcome jodi 🥰❤
Thanks Darren, I have learnt a lot watching this video. I have been confused with pouring medium and cell activator but with the one I watched on floetrol and this it’s slowly becoming a bit clearer. Bummer is I made about 10 colours today with tube and floetrol. I am gonna get some of the taubmans. I did get some nice cells today in a small area, I will get there.
Great information. 👍
Thank you Christine 🥰❤
That was really informative and I got alot out of it. Thanks Daz 💜
Thank you sandy 🥰❤🐨
I just received my first TLP today. Comet. Not mixed it yet so this is gonna come in handy!
Loved this!! Very helpful! I hope to be as talented as you someday 😊
Thank you so much Rose 🌹 🥰❤
Thank you so much Darren it really was a help. Learning a lot ❤️
Thank you for watching Denise 🥰❤

Venom, I would like to ask you something to see if you can solve it for me, I prepare my pouring medium with 2 parts untinted TR base paint, one part of paint or pigment, and I add polyurethane varnish until it reaches the consistency of liquid honey. The problem is that the next day it has thickened again so that it hardly comes off the stick, and I add varnish again until I get the consistency, and so on every day, is this normal? Thank you for your attention, I hope not to disturb..

Hi, what pouring paint will be good in New Zealand? Do you know please? Also do you use flotrol and if yes when please?
You should still be able to get the taubmans paints ( ppg) in nz . Here's a video on my pouring medium. The floetrol you only use in the cell activator ( 1part Amsterdam paint- 3parts floetrol)

Hi I am a total beginner to paint pouring although I did a bit 8 years ago I never got round to it properly. Anyways I have recently got interested again and blimey things have really progressed. I found your channel and really appreciate what you're doing and I am loving your videos. I have lots of pearl ex which would be great to use in pouring. Trouble is I'm in the UK and I don't know what paint I can use. You have mention satin emulsion for a cushion which is fine, even I can do that, but I cannot work out what paint this is. Is it a waterbased wood paint? Thanks Ellen
Thanks so much for making this so simple. I’m a newbie to this medium. Have taken Sheleart class & doing A-Z with Olga, Molly & Dunske. So much to learn. You also make it so relaxing ❤
Thank you so much cindy ♥️🐨
How do you measure units of volume on a device (scale) that measure units of weight? You are adding in increments of mls which (I think) would require knowing how much each different fluid weighs. How do you calculate how much each ml of each different fluid weighs in order to convert it into units of weigh so you can measure using a scale? I’m thinking this would be very tedious.
Nice video. 𝓣𝓗𝓐𝓝𝓚 💞 𝓨𝓞𝓤
Hi Darren!!! That was a great video!!! When you said that you like your paints extra thick with a 1 second trace, mine are even thicker!! I leave a 3 to 4 second trace or I feel like my cells get wonky. But I use Behr 8300 because I’m in Canada. Have you ever gone thicker?
And also do you use the same measurements when you mix fluid paints?
Thank you 😊😊😊😊
If your pillow is a little thin the cells will get wonky, I did a pour today with a 5 second trace and it turned out great 👍
I’m finding that as well, I love my thick paints but my pillow needs to be a bit thicker and I also stretch out my pillow on my canvas. That helps too, not sure if that’s right but it’s working for me 😊
Thank you so much for sharing!!!!!
Just checking this video again Darren as I have made a silly mistake when mixing pigments. Instead of using neutral I accidentally used a white and now the 6 colours I made are muted! 🙃 Any idea how I can make them bling or do I now have to use them as 'pastel tube paint' colours.?? So annoyed with myself as the TLPs are so expensive.
Ohhhhh nooooo fay, unfortunately you can't fix it. Any titanium white will make the colours pastel.
Thought so - ah well we all learn by our mistakes (hopefully). Thx for your quick reply Darren. I shall now mix up more pigments with the Correct Paint. 😄
Hey darren. Just to confirm as the taubman easy coat neutral on this video has been discontinued. What should I get now instead of? Is it Taubmans Neutral Semi Gloss Water Based Enamel?
Thank you ! Just gathering all the correct ingredients. I have been obsessively trying to find the right artists ingredients to follow and thank god I found you, a fellow Aussie. Wish me luck 😊😊
I use the taubmans sun proof gloss neutral mixed 50/50 with the easy coat walls low sheen neutral. Video number 252 shows the tins and how I mix it 👍🐨💖
if you added more lagoon powder to the muted one would it have brought it back?
No, once it’s muted it’s done for unfortunately.
Another question - will u mix Colour rate pigments in the same way?
Hey Darren is your measurement that you use to scoop out easy coat 80ml or 60ml measurement? You say 80mls but it looks like a 1/4 of a cup measurement? I’m trying to get exact to get cells as I keep failing ?
Definitely 80ml Victoria 👍
Great video! I will definitely take your advice on the gradual mixing of the PM.
I’m not sure I totally agree with needing an N95 mask. I noticed you tap your stir stick before you mix to get off any excess pigment. That is when you would cause most of the dust.
I never do that. I usually will immediately wipe my stick with a baby wipe making sure the stick is covered by the baby wipe.
Anyway, just thought I’d share. I do always hold the pigments well away from my face when I pour or mix.
I’m following you now and really looking forward to seeing more videos! 😀
The problem with fine pigments is you can’t see them in the air in certain light conditions. Trust me, no mater how carful you are it still gets into the air. My chest x-ray looks like a Xmas tree because I dropped a tub and still had a surgical mask on at the time. But it’s just my recommendation to use an n95 or better.
I’m glad you enjoyed the video Roberta 👍❤️🥰
thanks for this video! one question: here in Italy, where I live, I can't find the ingredients you use, I already have Josonia at home but I'd like to know the difference between this and what you use as a medium, because I have no idea what I should ask the shopkeeper
The josonja is just a varnish, ask for untinted paint that this no titanium white in it, that's what you will use as the pouring medium 😉
Hey darren
Great video! You have taught me so much, thank you!
Are you paint colours thicker than your pillow?
Yep,always thicker than my pillow
I'm amazed that you don't mix polycrylic or say, triple thick varathane for instance, into your 8300 (which I what I use)!. I've been thinking all this time I had to be buying that but your work produces lovely cells. Am I missing something here? You use nothing but your deep base and some JoSonja?
Hi Carol, I just use the taubmans untinted ( almost the same as behr 8300) and just the josonja, Amsterdam paint and water or Aussie floetrol and British paints low sheen for the pillow.
The paints I use in the pm are atelier, Matisse,,tlp, pearl ex and a few others. It's very rare I don't get cells 👍
Hi Darren, Chrissy from Townsville, I have been to Bunnings and Taubmans here in Townsville, to get Taubmans Door and Trim neutral base, but they don’t have any and they said they cannot order it in, I got Taubmans water base enamel neutral gloss interior & exterior, also got Taubmans Sun proof exterior gloss neutral. Will one of these be any good to use instead of Door and trim, thanks for your help. Chrissy
The original door and trim was discontinued a few months ago, the water based enamel works better in a semi-gloss, I'd exchange it as the gloss tends to warp cells 👍🐨
@@venomfluidart Thanks for the info Darren, I have been and changed the paint over to semi- gloss, wish me luck
Thankyou darren great work at explaining the way you mix your colours can I ask where you get your paint pots and does your measuring cup have 80 ml and 20 ml on them and can you tell me how long does the paint last in pots will it last a week ect thanks in advance
I just get them at a dollar store, there are no measurements on the tubs but I just weigh it if I need to be accurate. I used some paint today that was 3 months old and was a little thick, I just added some josh gloss varnish and a drop of water and they were fine 👍
Great video Darren. I am so guilty of dumping the PM in all at once. I don’t have any acrylic ink but could I use a little bit of transparent tube paint to brighten them up a bit. Have a great day. ❤️
Thanm you 🥰❤ You can lynne, just add small amounts at a time 👍
@@venomfluidart thanks Darren
Is their a substitute for Jo sona ?
You can use other gloss varnish brands, I just find this to dry slower than others reducing the chance if cracking
In italia non ti fanno comprare beher 8300 che prodotto Consiglii?
Grazie per video...ti chiedo un gtanfe aiuto .In Europa e' impossibile trovare o farsi spedire sia il Voat sia il Beher 8300, riesvi a suggerire un prodotto equivalente commercializzato in Europa. Ti ringrazio. Neanche Amazon li ha in listino...merci
You may be able to get valspar products in Europe 👍
@@venomfluidart grazie...cerco😊
...purtroppo non riesco ad individuare il tipo di vernice precisa. Ho cercato neutral...ma nulla. Se mai riuscissi a darmi o trovare quale quella giusta ti sarei grata...buon lavoro e divertimento per tue opere. Rossana
aussie?
Yep 🐨
