Hi everyone it's molly! welcome back to my channel thank you for being here. I am doing a painting that
is similar to another video I previously did called inferno. This time I'm doing it on a square canvas
and my paints are just a little bit thicker because i really want the colors to pop
on the black background. I am using oranges, reds whites,
and a little bit of a yellow gold that i mixed together. It is a two canvas concept,
so you will see this in two parts and two videos. Make sure you are subscribed if you want to see the next one! The first one I am going to do is a blow inward like I do with the side design. The
next one will be a center puddle blow out. I am very excited
for these pieces. I hope the colors really show up bright on the canvas! Let's get started! let's paint!
all right how is everyone doing? this is another commission it is a set of two so
there will be another video with the opposite of what I'm doing now. They wanted
a painting similar to another piece i did.
I have two lines this way and blew into the center. On the next canvas they want the blowout from the center.
I think it's going to be good I was worried about my Amsterdam brand titanium white. in another video that
i did it didn't react the same way but it was my consistency it was a little bit thin
and i used it with the same brand paints for the most part and that didn't give me the
cells that i normally get so when i'm doing these paintings and i want a good cell reaction i use
amsterdam with creative inspirations and it's either a mixture of creative inspirations
like i have here creative inspirations gold and uh amsterdam azo yellow mixed together
or I do you know half orange or whatever percentage orange of creative inspirations and
orange from Amsterdam the reason I'm doing that is because I get better coverage I'm using just water
so i get better binders from the amsterdam to hold the paint together so it doesn't crack or break
but i get the reaction from mixing the amsterdam with the creative inspiration so i was a little
baffled on that one but i do want to play around as well with opaque semi-opaque semi-transparent
and transparent colors and see if there's any trends that way i know that for amsterdam opaque
colors tend to give more cells and the trans when they're layered with more transparent colors which
are lighter the reaction kind of happens like this but i want to play around with the middle
area but enough talking for now i am going to lay down my black base and then i'll get started
do
all right i'm going to set my black aside for now and i am going to start with the red next to the
black that gives a really pretty color the last time i did this i did it on i think a 16 by 20
i'll be interested to see how it works on the 20 by 20.
okay and then normally when i blow those colors will
end up meeting each other i'm gonna come in with the yellow next
i did thicken up my paints just a little bit for this one because i wanted to see if the cells
would hold any better or if they wouldn't hold oh i had a clump there i just mixed some more orange
so okay all right got this part now i've said this before but yellow and black sometimes make green
so you just want to keep that in mind when you're pouring your colors ooh this one's kind of thick
okay we'll see i probably shouldn't experiment
on the commission but
now i'm going to come in basically over the yellow with the white one more time
this side too i've been wanting to do something kind of funky
and just do a piece like this but just leave it like maybe blow one corner i don't know
these are the things that i think about in my garage
i need my studio all right coming off the side over here
okay i'm gonna blow this out
wow is that beautiful
wow gorgeous i was worried that i might get you know like a halloween type feel because i felt
that way on inferno but then it it felt like uh ended up feeling like kind of kind of like autumn
fix that little part right there
you can always just touch your finger it's just a little lump
my new apron
if y'all think i ramble now you should have heard me on my amazon my first amazon live
i was so nervous mixed media girl actually came um in the live it was so nice of her to do that i was
really appreciative she came and told me hello all right y'all that's my charleston coming out in me
stunning i got my mojo back i was so worried that i wouldn't get this beautiful lacing reaction
i'm gonna blow just a little bit
you guys know me i kind of like to drag things along a little bit but i actually really
like the hard lines of this the only one that i don't want i want that to be there we go
i think i'm done with this oh i hope they like it
and i hope it dries well because my paints are thicker and i'm gonna leave the drips exactly
as they are normally i'll go in and like try to brush my finger along them and smooth them out but
i think i i think i'm done i think i like this one the way it is
yeah i like the drips going down the side
i think that's it the only place only place that i may blow is that right there
all right let me show you i don't know why this is so visually appealing to me but it is
and i think my theory was right so there's nothing wrong with the abstract i was worried
i got it from a different company or no it's the reaction of my paints silly me
i'm the one that tells you that all the time how beautiful is this and look at that on
the sides but see that's what i'm saying i'm just gonna leave the the drips just like that
i'll tell you my favorite part is right there stunning i hope linda likes it
and i'm gonna get started on the other one
i'll show you the dried result yes yes yes this is one of the prettiest pieces
i think this one came out better than the original inferno that i did
i love the colors here
and again that this right here reminds me of a monarch butterfly
absolutely stunning and if you can see you can't see as much of the canvas
and that's because my paints were thicker it's a smoother layer there
i love it i love the way the petals come out in it i'm really really happy with it and i have already
showed it to uh miss linda and she loved it and i'm very excited yes look at those bright colors
i thought i had lost my mojo
all right so i'm going to do the other video as well the one where i do it in the center
and blow it out and then I will show you the both of them in that video thank you for watching
happy painting
bye
