ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS COLOURS AND COMPOSITION ACRYLIC MAGIC~ BALLOON KISS AND BLOW TECHNIQUE

hello and welcome it's still cube and i'm here on the sunshine coast in queensland australia coming to you with another pour so uh probably just a different composition again today so thank you so much for joining me thank you and there's probably so many more interesting things on tv at the moment um you choose to watch art on a youtube channel so that's wonderful and i thank you very much for that thank you thank you i've got some lovely delicious colors here and i'm going to try and incorporate quite a few of them but hopefully not too many can you believe it or not i want to keep it kind of minimalistic but you know we'll see how that one goes because it never goes well for me trying to keep things minimalistic so this was white paint mixed with metallic gold to just take it very pale gray with a you know because it's metallic not metallic gold metallic silver and because it's metallic metallic it's got this you know luster in it so it kind of makes it yeah not quite white very pale pale pale gray with the silver in there so without further ado i'm going to coat my canvas with this oh here we go on the roll so you can everybody coats their canvas differently you can use your fingers which is absolutely fine you can use a spatula you can use a sponge you know this isn't i know people say to me or you used a base coat it's just a coat it's part of my the composition part of the the whole overall look that i wanted because my canvases when i buy them they're pre guess owed so this one is a canvas and it's pre-treated single thickness camera [Music] acid-free where does it triple coated triple coated with universal primer so that's what my canvases come like so i don't actually have to put anything on to seal them this is just what i put on the um my base coat is just going to be part yeah part of the whole pro my process part of what i want to come out of this so i'm not going to worry too much about my edges because i can do those as i go along i can do those with my fingers so here we go here we go so i hope you've all been keeping well i hope you've all been keeping sane so um but if you're watching um art on youtube then you're definitely on the same side because it's far less stressful than anything else in the news so uh thank you thank you for being with us righty righty oh let me try and get that a little bit it doesn't have to be perfect because the paint does self level there we go so a different composition i'm trying to work on so i've got some greens a couple of greens so this is the green deep it's a real dark green i know you think yuck but i'm only using a little bit actually that is a bit runny i might have to add some more paint which you can do if you find so this is a global paint and if you find your paint is just too runny and you know that it's going to be for the particular technique that you're doing then you know don't push on with it stop and add some you know whether it's too thick or too thin add some more paint which i've just done or you can add some more pouring medium if it's too thick so that has thickened it up yeah just nice actually just nice so let's see if i can get this to work how i want it to work so it's kind of like a wishbone i suppose let's give this a go a wishbone that's a dog bone isn't it okay get me funny bones mixed up so hopefully it will start to make sense when the other colors go on yeah it's not a crash hot color but obviously some people do like it so this is the green light it's like a real bright green it is poured and poured with rain here today so not a great day i must admit definitely not a great day but give me an excuse to spend all this time in my art room today so i don't feel bad about that this is a metallic silver so a bit of this is going in too and there is the gecko um i can't see him at the moment he's hidden somewhere in here because lots of people have told me or asked me you know let's see this gecko that i have to come in here with a camera at night mostly because the geckos actually come out of hiding at night is when i see them so they obviously stay well hidden during the day rightio i'm gonna really throw some um out there now this is it isn't my berry delicious this one was just the magenta with phthalo blue so it is a deep berry color but if you wanted it to go the real cherry berry delicious then you would add a bit of black to it only a spot then it goes a real black cherry look you're thinking what the heck is she doing today she's gone right off crazy but bear with me it was an idea in my head and it may not come out so i just try it this was the warm red well i think i've got well and truly enough paint in there no probably would work better if you could put your paints into a squirty bottle um yeah putting your paints into a squirty bottle may work really well i am going to this is just the amsterdam white and floetrol so i am going to squirt i pre-mix it put it in the bottle so i can use it squirt it out so i'm going to put a bit of that in there the white we've got all sorts of colors i could use here but i'm going to have a little bit of frustration just a little bit today um rightio do i or don't i yes i might just use see what blowing some of this areas out look like so just a few little blows so much cool lacing coming up on the close-up photographs i'll show you that right i do want to i've got some i've just got um amsterdam black where is it this one lamp black just speaks with flotrol only just find the swipes other colors do work i mean other paints do work but not as well as the um flow trough just trying to find whether i use a stick i might use the stick let me see if that works just to bring a few nice wispy bits out i might need to use a card that seems to be going okay at present time wow so you kind of get my drift with this particular composition i wanted it yeah just something you know same but different same but different so it's just dipping dipping you well this is just a lollipop stick dipping it in and um swiping it then i'm the bit on the back i'll use turnover but then wipe it off because if you just keep dipping it in that's when you'll get mud mud mud mud and more mud but i'll bring you in close because this it just gives the most amazing amazing bringing all the colors up in the um swipe gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous i don't think i've used the greens for a while so they're not my favorite color for whatever reason of yeah i used to have to wear green bottle green to school wasn't my favorite back then one more ten drill one more um aussie swipe aussie flow troll so and it's swiping so hence an aussie swipe and an aussie slide is with the card so so i am going to of course it wouldn't be a julie pour if it wasn't with a balloon oh i obviously do do lots of other work with balloons but um you know that i love balloons as my tool of creation so have fun with your balloons let's see maybe two wet ooh look at that lookie lookie you could absolutely be pressing those onto another canvas but today i'm not wow wow wow if you find the colors are falling in either walk away and leave it for 20 25 minutes even longer or wipe your balloon off come back and push back into that same balloon kiss and re-kiss i'm just going to put use that big balloon there i'm not going to use any more of the big the light well the lara balloon remember you hold it in the belly button that is gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous and then i'll get my smaller balloon there we go oh yeah she's just a little bit smaller what have i got dripping on my feet oh my goodness there's a lip god just tipped a whole thing you paint over and it's i wondered why my feet felt cold i've got green feet can i lift them up i can't even lift them up over the table oh my gosh okay i'm just gonna carry on the show must go on i've got green feet and all okay i get my smaller balloon and just push that in the center of those bigger balloon kisses and it just gives the most stunning stunning effect then i just give a few more kisses here and there just a tiny few obviously you can go overboard and i usually do but you know what the effect is gorgeous so you can either leave it at that you wait for it to dry off a little bit more if you're having trouble with your balloon kisses if they're falling in but you know that's just gorgeous that is really lovely happy happy gin okay beautiful and i've got my real little balloon that i could push again but i think that that's just perfect that is perfect so what do you think of that composition people i think it's pretty cool i like it and i better get i better turn the camera off bring my camera down to show you this and wipe my green feet up so i will do that green paint on the floor i knocked that green deep over on the floor green feet wasn't good was it anyway look at this little beauty look at some of the detail in this solid solid sorry about the glare it is glaring back at you but oh this is just gorgeous look at those cells in these swipes isn't that pretty look at this and that one is just divine it looks very very very attractive in that particular composition sitting sort of you know in the center of the canvas in a way i suppose so i hope you like this one today um colors are a little bit you know putting some greens in there um something a little bit different and of course you know different strokes for different folks whatever you like your art room your rules your way and don't forget that so until tomorrow guys wishing you all well i'll go wash my green feet and i'll see you tomorrow take care take care you
