Thank you 😊
This is so gorgeous, Mark! I definitely see the angel fish shapes. What a fantastic job you've done! Your swipes are incredible. What pouring medium did you use for the coloured paints please? I will look forward to your happy dance in your next video as I know it will deserve it already! 😃💜🐨🙋♀️🦘🤗👍
Thanks so much! All my paints (except the swipe paint) is mixed with Owatrol/Floetrol 1:3 paint to pouring medium with a dash of water
Mark, I don't like it.....I LOVE IT! Amazing color choices...lots of good decisions... good restraint to not overwork. 👍
Thanks so much! Yay!! 🐠🐠🐠
È stupendo ❤❤❤
Thank you so much 😊
❤piękne zorze.
Thanks so much 🤩
I am amazed! This is stunningly beautiful! ❤
What is australian floetrol? Some other floetrol?
Thank you 😊 Australian Floetrol has a different chemical formula and therefore create the lacing you see when mixed with paint and is used widely to create cells and lacing.
As a tropical fish keeper love the inspiration and love this painting!!
I was wondering would a mono romantic style pink painting do well with the puddle and marble technique with white as the base coat?
That would be cool! Possibly?! Thank you 🙏
Yes great idea and thank you for your kind words
Lovely as always! You really should be a psychologist!
😊😊🐠 thank you 😊
This is gorgeous. Do you share your ratio of floetrol to paint to create cells? 💜💜💜
Of course - all details are in the description of each video
❤❤❤❤❤
💜😊
great video.. what do you varnish with
Thank you. Spray varnish - gloss by W&N
What is the difference between American and Australian Floetrol?
American Floetrol is thicker, has a whitish color, and is made of latex paint. It is also known that Aussie floetrol creates much more cells by itself than the US option (US floetrol almost created no cells without silicone additives) see more info about this on acrylicpaintingschool.com/
Btw is it allowed to mix colors of different brands or will it not blend right?
Yes I’ve mixed different brands - just bear in the mind the opacity when layering 👍🏻
@@MarkJRatcliffeArt Ok thanks i didn't know
Why Australian flow troll?
To create the lacing
Could not see how fish could appear the you did it
Thank you 😊 🐠
