hi everyone it's molly welcome back to my channel thank you for being here
i am doing tonight a full black base swiping over it with white then i'm going to pour the
rainbow colors and swipe them i'm hoping that the background gives a almost like a webbed
effect lacing all throughout so that it can give some extra dimension i've really been having fun
with this series and i hope that you are as well i'm calling it my bright line series just because
that bright rainbow swipe through there and i just feel like it's what i needed in my life
right now so i hope that you've been enjoying the series thank you so much for watching let's paint
all right hello everyone i am continuing on the bright line so i thought this time so i've done
white and black straight i've done ring pores i've done wrecked rings now i want to do
the background as a swipe and then the colors as a swipe so we'll see how that one goes so this
is my regular pouring medium oh there's a big lump of paint i saw in there i just mixed
some new paint yikes i hope that's gonna be okay
all right got that out of there and i felt like i saw something else i'll get it if i
see it so what i'm going to do i have this piece of paper and did i make it the right
should be good enough i'm going to put a bunch of white on here
spread it out and then i'm going to swipe down it and so this is my regular pouring medium
actually it's not my regular pouring medium it doesn't have gac800 in it gac800 when i do
these types of pours it actually makes the cells spread out a lot and that's why i've taken it out
oh i almost burned that paper i could smell it oh my gosh can you imagine in the headlines like
"molly's artistry, garage on fire!" all right so i really just think i'm gonna
and i'm gonna really spread this out far
because i want it to
now this white is amsterdam white and that's a brand of paint and this is australian floetrol
which is what creates those beautiful cells thank you to shelee art and gilly Kube was
using australian floetrol and doing some really pretty swipes as well.
all right
i want to make sure i get this edge let me put it down a little bit
because the edge is what's going to like start it all off
so let me put a little bit more paint there on that edge not much
or a lot
oh man okay i don't like it all right okay so now okay i'm just gonna go for it i'm gonna swipe
first and then i'm gonna run the colors up through it and again i'm just going with it because
that's what this series is about is just about experimenting and going with it i'm actually
going to put that oh i just got some of my toe i'm just going to drip the rest back on there because
australian floetrol is expensive and i can reuse that okay here we go here goes nothing just
gonna secure it a little bit on the edges oh i can already start to see it
this won't be perfect that's okay
whoa
oh that was so cool it disappeared a little bit though but that's okay
actually it disappeared a lot it's got like super fine lacing in there which tells me that i think
my black is a little bit thin so i think what i'm going to do is come in and swipe a few more times
just right over this to get the edges as well
and i think i kind of pressed down too hard i think that's what that was
see it's fading right back in again so
swipe one more time on this side
yep it's fading right on down
hmm
all right i tell you what i'm going to scrape this back in the bucket i'm going to
thicken up my black paint just a little bit and then i'm going to see if this swipes any better
okay so i have hopefully thickened that and hopefully this was my problem
if it wasn't i'm gonna have to go back to the drawing board oh there's some lumps again okay
this is all coming out of the bottom of my paint jar
oh there's another one i'm gonna have to get those out
the one thing about saving your paint is you've got to get those dried edges off and
i am impatient and sometimes i don't all right so we're going to try this again and if not
no problem i'll go back to the drawing board but i did something that was really cool in the process
that i'm gonna make a video on so everything happens for a reason there's my black paint that
i scraped off before i will use this in another painting and let's swipe with this white again
all right i am just going to use my palette knife so that i can go really light over the top
and i'm just going to start right here and let's see what happens
already i can see i thickened that up just the tiniest bit and it's already holding better
so i'm going to keep swiping
these are just you can let me know if you like this style or
these kind of longer ones where i'm just playing around i feel like i learn you learn
like i think my black could have even been just a tiny bit thicker
learning as i go because my white is already really thick but maybe that was the issue maybe my
white needed to be a little bit
that's sticking pretty well i like that okay all right getting there
took some time but getting there really just going very light over the top
and it's going to be fine detail it's not going to be like
in your face for the background but i kind of like that
and i think maybe i'll do one swipe with the heavy white up here and then come back that way again
just a little bit more interesting
when i stretch this out these cells are going to be really really cool i think
i am just going to do a little bit of swirling
that will all go off the edge i think
and do i want one more kind of swipe through there
and the last time i learned i needed to move my colors i said to keep all
the colors really tight together but i do want them to kind of spread out a little bit
and i'm making them kind of thin
so that
my palette knife will go over the entire thing
okay i'm going to swipe with white again let me wipe this off again
yeah those cells are going to open up it's going to be really cool i think
y'all my station is such a mess
i guess you're not having fun if it's not messy right
okay
oh i had a little
okay i made executive decision in the middle to come back this way i don't know why
that was not in my plan not in my plan
all right i'm gonna stretch this one out it looks like nothing right now but let's see what happens
i'm gonna add some more black some of this extra black that
i had scraped up off the table back around
okay
do
this is not at all what i was going for but i like it
just not that white part right there okay
i'm gonna add a little bit more black to this edge right here
tuck that underneath the rest of my stuff
yeah this is not at all what i was going for but
all right
go down to that edge
come on paint
all right well this one did not come out the way that i thought it was going to and it's
got to be the mixture because i just mixed new paints it's got to be the mixtures of my paints
but i mean i'm not mad at it it's really cool
all right let me show you so this is not at all what i mean it's the concept
but that black and white just didn't quite do the same
super funky and cool though and that's what i was going for i was going for kind
of lacing everywhere and you see that black that's what i said that the black would definitely
the lacing would end up showing up i just wanted it to be a little bit more predominant
but i will try again all right i'll show you how it dries okay so here it is
and this is not varnished yet this is just that gloss medium that i put in there gives it
such a beautiful shine and people ask if i still varnish over top and i do just for uv protection
look at that now i struggled a lot with this one and it's still i still don't have it
perfect but that's you know i'm learning with this series
so i do i like it i like that it's like almost fades into the black it's a very blended color
instead of like super bright standout colors and i love the interest in it this one's going to look
really good either with a high gloss varnish or a resin over top yeah so there you go i struggled
but i love the outcome all right well thank you for watching! happy painting! bye!
