all right hello everyone! so i am going to do another swipe and scoop with the leftover colors.
still the leftover colors from when olga was here. but i'm gonna use a white base and then i have
all my rainbow colors. here not really rainbow but close enough. now i've done two of these thus far
in kind of rainbow type colors and in the first one kind of look like a turkey. the colors were a
little bit more subdued i didn't use enough color. and in the second one my purple was a little too dark,
and it kind of took over a part of the painting. so this time i'm just gonna kind of
go crazy with the swipes across the canvas and, i don't know, just see how this one goes. the colors
are a little bit brighter so i'm thinking that it's gonna work out well. i am swiping
with black across the white and then i haven't decided if i want to swipe with white
or black across the colors. i'm not sure yet but i'm gonna get started. oh and i'm using these.
probably gonna start with these two to swipe. and then i'm gonna use this. this is actually from LoLiVefe
it's to scrape paint off the silicone mats, but i actually use it to scoop up the paint. so
okay let me get going here this is my first painting of the day i normally do like
three or four paintings on the weekend and this and i didn't use enough white last time too
and it took me a while to get going and of course i decided that like
the most intricate painting was gonna be my first painting
all right
i mixed up a whole bunch of paints behind me to keep painting today i have some ideas in my head
my ideas normally come to me believe it or not like late at night or super early in the morning
so i just jot them down either in my phone or if i'm by my notepad okay all right so just stretch
that out just a little bit okay all right so i'm gonna get going and i don't think i'm gonna layer
these in any particular order and i think i'm gonna do a couple of different groups of them
so i'm gonna start here oh i didn't swipe my black
the biggest part of what i wanted to do here so i'm just gonna pour some
this is my paints are mixed pouring me i just jumped right into this like
everybody knows who i am um so my paints are mixed with mostly creative inspirations
as far as the bases go with about 70% floetrol 30% gloss medium varnish
and so the colors.. it's pouring medium for the colors and then this is one part Amsterdam
oxide black and about three to four parts of Australian floetrol. so i'm just gonna swipe
right across there
oh just the black and white by itself is really really pretty
and i'm going to do one more swipe and i'm just getting trying to get most of it off of the
spatula there you want to have a good enough layer but not so much
that it's all black oh i dripped i shouldn't have
done that right over i dripped but i'm going to cross down through it anyway
you want to go nice and slow
there we go i think maybe just a couple more
this really just gives like an interesting background to it it's not
you know these aren't gonna hold up they're gonna end up almost looking like spider webs
and i have some fun ideas
for i don't know when you'll see this video but i have some fun ideas for
the pearl cells or pearl paints by amsterdam as well
so i've already done a ring pour and you've seen that one
but i have a lot of other ideas so this is coming into like a gray color here which is totally fine
because these colors are really going to get mixed up together that's why i had my little
my drip catcher here trying to get a little bit neater
okay i think that's enough because i'm gonna scoop and all of that is gonna change anyway
i don't know if i want to do black or white i'm still deciding it's probably never a good
thing when i'm still deciding as i'm painting okay so now i'm going to go with my purple
my magenta
this is a rose mater it's extremely pretty my orange
yellow
blue
okay i think i'm going to start over here kind of in the gray
and i'm going to start with the magenta
yellow
orange i mean you can choose to do whatever colors you want that is what is amazing about this
i think i'm gonna do those two next to each other
but there are so many i feel like every time i paint i have an idea for another painting or if i
go on instagram and see someone else that's doing something really cool i'm like hmm could that work
for this technique okay am i missing a color
what am i missing two four six two four six
two four six nope good okay i'm going to do one more i think along this way and i've
started with turquoise as i start i think i'm going to start with purple in this one
purple oh the purple next to the orange
clemson colors because i'm originally from south carolina
i might be daring and swipe this with white i don't know
oh i'd already done orange charcoal it's
i see the symmetrical part of me wants to put another one right there but i'm not i'm not gonna
do it so two four five i'm missing this blue okay all right i got all those out of the way
do i want to swipe with white i'm going to swipe one with black and see how it goes
okay here we go okay
i think i'm going to swipe with white i think i like
that gave a little bit of interest there but
it kind of grayed out again i think i'm gonna swipe with white
i already have it mixed up this makes it so much easier when you're doing multiple paintings in a
day to have them free mixed and then i just put them back in my little uh tcp cups and
they're good to go okay i'm going to swipe
i like the white swipe much better
much brighter and more colorful
yes
okay and yes almost four years later i still get excited and i'm not apologizing for it
okay i'm gonna swipe straight down through here
i'm going the opposite direction that i normally go and this is actually much harder
wow that was so much harder to do that backwards okay so now i've got that out of the way
i'm going to use my smaller spatula and swipe some of these
i'm going to swipe them back this direction
these are not going to matter
because they're going to get stretched out
i mean they matter
i kind of don't want to scoop this one i get to this point if you've watched my other videos
on this i get to this point every time where i'm like this would be really cool
if i just stretched it out but i'm gonna scoop it all right here we go
do it
okay i really love this corner i may just
okay
i love that too
look at that okay maybe i'll just
i did it i did it okay all right let's see you really don't know
talk about not knowing what's gonna happen these you really don't know
what's gonna happen but i kind of like that sometimes i'm so
focused on getting a specific look that sometimes it's fun to just have chaos and randomness take
over all right so i'm gonna stretch this out and i do have enough paint this time which is great
and i'm gonna stretch to this corner first
then back over to this corner
this is very very cool i need a napkin
i like it
i am so i'm very concerned that this part's going to go off
we'll see and then my white when i swiped over i might try to stretch this out a little bit
this way because there is color underneath right here and i want to i don't want it
to kind of look muddy so i might stretch that part out but let me turn these around for now
turn one more time okay so i'm actually going to take the paint back
and stretch it down this way first
and then i will stretch this color out as it goes and then hopefully i won't lose all of that
there we go
are you kidding me
it's what one of my friends kids says it's like the cutest thing ever
that is super duper cool
all right i i'm not i'm not touching it i'm not fiddling
i'll take you in and show you what it looks like wet and then i'll show you what it looks like dry
i'm like very i i'm excited about this one i love this one the white mixture
which is creative inspirations as i kind of swiped through it i feel like some of those cells started
to pop up that weren't there before that is likely due to having my paints a little too thin a little
too much water in there but i actually like it i do not mind that at all so i'm going to show you
love the orange and the purple together fades into the rose mater
look at that strip right there
so for me this has just enough negative space
but also just enough pops of color
but you can let me know what you think and i'll show you what it looks like dry
okay i am really liking this piece so there was a reaction that happened in the center here and
it was with the white base i used i used creative inspirations and that is a lot more cell reactive
and i think it had a little bit more water in it it was a little bit thinner than the colors
so i ended up almost getting like a pearl cell reaction in the middle but i'm actually not mad at
it at all so it popped up like through the lacing so it almost looks 3d like the lacing is behind it
and then it's only in the center and it's got these bright pops of color on the outside
so i honestly really like it
my little swiping scoop all right you can let me know what you think
thank you for watching! happy painting! bye!
