Hi from England UK!!!! I just wanted to say how AMAZING, YOU BOTH ARE!!!!! Some creator's shield their mixes and ratio's. You guys just wanted to teach us ,to do this wonderful,sometimes trying art. You seem like such humble but I have to add,VERY TALENTED PEOPLE!!!!!!! You bothered enjoy Christmas and the rest of the holidays,it's my Dream to do New Year's 🥳😮😊 in Australia so you all have a fabulous time and a few drinks for me!! I know you wouldn't ever think that ,what you teach is something that can turn you're mood from a fed up, to a REAL GAME CHANGER off a day, if you get it right 👍. Take care cos we care,love n hugs from the UK !!!!😊❤🎉
Also, it's important to know that the colors under the cell activator need to be thicker than the activator. That, I believe, is the key. I live in Colombia and we can't get any kind of floetrol without ordering and breaking the bank so I only use water with great results as you have pointed out. Thanks for sharing this process to the masses.... people are really disillusioned with Aussie floetrol being the only key to success. It's consistency and quality of the various elements.
My understanding (which could be wrong) is the pillow is the thickest, paints all consistent and thinner than the pillow, the cell activator the thinnest. I thought the cell activator you use should sink while the colours underneath rise and that creates the cells and lacing. So knowing the density of the colours is helpful 🤷🏼♀️ it is confusing with so many artists having their own methods
@@Livingstone497 what you wrote is exactly what I initially thought but since then and with all the reading and experimenting I've done, it's all the more confusing depending on what technique you're using. Certainly boggles my mind.
Hey,thank you for the explanation, I only have 1more question, is the white pillow paint acrilic or latex based, because I constantly hear house paint, were I live that is mostly latex based.
@@audreytryba2575 pillow paint is generally only used for the shelee bloom technique. The pillow paint can be any cheap house paint in white or eggshell with a satin or semi gloss finish. Latex is water based and generally used for indoor painting. Acrylic paint is chemical based and used outdoors because it is more durable and can expand and contract based on the weather. There are so many different pour paint techniques. Check all of them out and try them all😊
This is great. No one has made it this simple before. I'm just beginning to get into this type of art and I need all the help I can, the simpler the better. Thank you.
I just watched your tutorial, I am amazed with the production of cells, its difficult and very expensive to get flowtrol over here in the U.K. and I have to say its refreshing watching your tutorial and not hearing the following words quote "Dollar store, or flowtrol" unquote. In the UK our paint supplies are very expensive not like the USA so I will try your handy hint on how to get cells in flow art with just paint and water. Thanks much appreciated. Joyce
Whether it's grout baking or paints, the Easy RULE to NEVER get clumbs is add LIQUID to SOLID, not the other way around. Add small amounts of water ( or liquid) and keep stiring well so you NEVER get clumps. NOT all paints are like Pebeo. But all solids WILL clump if you add solid to a bowl of liquid. Trust me. Take your time, add the water, and it won't take long at all. Try it next time. Cheers! Love your channel watching and learning loads. You guys have alot of fun!
Thank you from the UK . I’m new to this art form and I explored it because I want to make my own tiles to put around a fireplace - I’ve practised a lot but can’t seem to create what I want snd this video today has helped me clarify the technique and the colours I need so thank you . Your voice is soothing and reassuring too , I love your accent !
Thank you so so SO much! I have been watching a squillion videos whilst trying to work out how to make a cell activator. And then! I found you! You are an amazing and wonderful person and I'm in love with your accent! Again thank you so much for such a simple and fun tutorial. Masses of flowers from a very poor HCA from the UK ❤️
Nice! I have always had great luck with US Floetrol, Amsterdam paints, and a few drops of water. The key is waiting 2-3 minutes after swiping, before doing anything else. I think a lot people move too quickly.
I'm gonna try that, waiting a bit. Cause I think I start panicking that not many cells are gonna be on it, so I hit it with heat or blow on it. Thanks for the tip!
Thanks so much for sharing ...always wondered what a cell activator was other than drops of silicon added to colors. Good to know that there are simpler and less toxic methods.
Hi Renate, silicone is more of a cell additive that goes in the colours, a cell activator works a little different as you can swipe with it or do blooms and it's not a problem to resin your piece when dry unlike when you use silicone in your colours.
Thank you so much for putting this video together. I am a beginner so I think will be a great starting point for me. Oh, I could watch your videos all day!!!
You have such an easy going style, my only question is what your colored paints are mixed with? Cells seem to elude me and I just NEED to get some kind of a return! you know what I mean? Therefore I want to follow your recipe perfectly. Then I’m going for it! Thanks for your great videos!
This was the best and easiest cell activator info video I've seen. Really appreciate you making this for us as it has been really frustrating with the ones where people are using Australian floetrol. Well done! I love the examples, very beautiful! Jenny - Vancouver Canada
I am so grateful to you for taking the time to make this video. I have been buying Australian floetrol from Fluid Art Co. for some time. When I moved to France from California it became a bit more pricey but now that it has been banned in Europe I have been fiddling about with the U.S. floetrol, Owetrol and all the additives. Now I can't even get U.S. floetrol delivered here. So, like I said - I am so grateful to you. XX
This is really stunningly beautiful! And so easy! I live in Sweden and nothing is cheap here or easy to come by. When I moved here from Brittain, where you could get everything your heart desired and you didn't even have to order it online, but could get it in a shop, I felt I was moving into a cultural desert. It still often feels like that, but solutions like yours definitely help! Thank you!!
Awesome! I just bought white and black Amsterdam paint last week! I can’t wait to try them with only water! I never get pretty cells like you all get! Im just not producing pretty paintings at all. The struggle is real.
@@venomfluidart Thank you. You guys are always so encouraging, especially for those of us who are new to this form of art. I really appreciate the videos you all take the time to do for us and also very much appreciate that you always take the time to answer questions!
That last one knocked my socks off! Thanks for sharing this with us! I chuckled when you said it was winter, oh Lordy, this was a long time ago. We just hit peak fall color time here in SW Michigan, USA. It did nothing but rain here all day yesterday, and there's a definite chill in the air! So, these colors of summer have warmed me up! Thanks, and you must be headed for spring by now! Enjoy! Great work! Unfortunately in my work space, spinning is out of the question. Ugh, I'd love to try these sometime though. Cheers!
I don’t like the clumping past. I’ve found that it’s better if you loosen the paint first stirring it. Then add a little water to loosen again and keep doing that no lumps and quicker. Thanks for the lesson. I’m Australian too. 💕
@@CheriBomzArt unfortunately, like all other things in this particular artform depends on the paint, the temp, the container it's in, etc. metal tubes can be warmed by sticking them in a cup of uncooked rice that's been warmed to just above room temp in the microwave. Plastic tubes can be warmed by substituting the rice for water. If you're only using a small amount and you have nesting containers, like those little takeout dip containers, you can put your paint amount in one cup and then place enough warm water in a second cup to (securely) float the cup. Just a few seconds is all you need
I noticed you're using ceramic tile for the demonstration. I learned very early on in my painting experience, these save wrecking canvas. And if I really like what came out I sign it and seal it with uv resin and it goes in the sell box.
If you allow me a little add to your video, I would advise you to use distilled water, not the one from the tap. Also just for paint mixing, they’ll stay good forever.
@TripleG69 its due to all the water particulates. As an example, the water here has a lot of lime. So we have to filter the water. Distilled is so that the water used is safe. However, if you don't have filtered Water and distilled is expensive, set out a glass of water for a day. The air will get rid of a lot of the yuck in it.
Very grateful for this tip. Floetrol is expensive in India and I am just starting. Got beautiful cells with just paint and water activator. Thank you so much
You are absolutely amazing sweet Wombat!! This is fantastic. So much better than any other CA video and it only took one of them. . Haha. You are a true talent and I appreciate so much your help, love, support, encouragement and friendship. You rock Mate!! 😁❤️❤️❤️❤️
You just explained so much to me! And saved me money on importing aussie floetrol to US. And i finally understand how to use a cell activator with a swipe.
Thank you for an easy-to-understand video!! I loved that last tile it was gorgeous. I just found your channel today and subscribed. I look forward to doing some binge watching of your videos.
Nice video. It is important to know the rest of paint you used along with the sale cell activator like the consistency and mix opouring medium because that balance is also important to get the results you got. Thank you so much.
Mmmm it's really not that important to be honest, you can get the same result from just decoart paint strait of the bottle . All my pouring medium,ca etc are in the other videos also 👍
I have been trying many different pours and cell activator Combinations but nothing is working. I guess I am not understanding everything. The "pillow" or "cloud" that is sometimes used...I am using primer house paint. The main colors I am using paint, water, American Floetrol, silicone, sometimes white glue, and minwax wood conditioner. I don't necessarily use all the the ingredients at the same time but those are the things I have tried but I have yet to get cells Iike yours. I do this mixing with all my paints, not just black and white for the tops. I don't think I am grasping the idea
Thank you so much, I can’t afford Australian flow troll at 50.00 usd ouch! Now we have a solution for the problem and I’m so happy, I’m glad I kept looking thanks 🙏🏻
Hi Venom! Love this video, I also used only water for CA… but I would like to know which kind of PM did you use in your differents color paints, because also its important to see the reaction on those, because CA can react different on colors that are made with some of the many pm’s that exist, (sorry if you dont understood, my native language is spanish, I’m from Viña del Mar, Chile) Hug for you ! 👏👏👏🍀🌷🖼👩🎨😊
@@venomfluidart Thank you so much, you are s great artist, I have seeing it and I love all your curiosity with all the mixture you do! Awesome! 👏😊🖼👩🎨🌷👏👏👏👏🍀😍🤩
Because people are programmed into thinking there's only one way to achieve the same results. Like doing courses that cost a fortune, special additives etc. This is just cheap, easy and gives great results for beginners. 👍💙🐨
I’m new to this technique and have a question. If water and paint work this well, what is the purpose of using the Aussie Floetrol? Are the cells different? Love your work by the way! 😊
Floetrol is a paint conditioner, it’s great for stopping brush and roller strokes in paint, it also slows the drying time down. I still use the Aussie floetrol on bigger pieces that I’m selling as it’s cheap here but does help keep the paint more fluid as it dries. Cheaper paint also doesn’t like too much water added before it breaks down.
@@venomfluidart thanks for the info! I was more interested in why use the Floetrol for cells when just water and paint does so well? Do you get better or more cells using the floetrol for your CA? I’m just curious. Thanks again!
Namasté, I'm only a year late seeing this but better now than never😏.. Your work is phenomenal and you do make it look quite easy. I'm sure you put heart, soul, sweat and precious time into your art to be able to achieve such gorgeous outcomes. More often than not, that which is too easy isn't worth it bc if it's worth it, it won't be too easy.. your time spent was well worth it and viewing your work is like witnessing magic manifest.. blessed be
Thank you so much Tara , yes there's thousands of hours research , testing, practice in getting my results, but it's definitely been a load of fun and it's great to share with others to help them get the same results 🐨♥️
Thanks for video… Yes temperature has a lot to do with it… I live on Magnetic island north Queensland… And it’s not the best place to paint but never mind I enjoy it
Loved the results using the black Amsterdam best as so dramatic. I’m watching this a year after you made it and wish I had seen it before I bought a bottle of Aussietrol which Owetrol (UK equivalent to Floetrol) produced as an equivalent to Australian Floetrol! I have a pot of Amsterdam so will give it a try. Thanks?
I'm in love with your voice lol...being from so. california, it's very calming...sorry to the Misses if there is one lol...no disrespect meant. I haven't done any pours yet, but I love them and am soaking my brain with information before getting started. I love watching videos that make the process cheaper and easier...here in the states, prices are crazy right now, ty.

I still use the Aussie floetrol on bigger pieces that I’m selling as it’s cheap here but does help keep the paint more fluid as it dries. Cheaper paint also doesn’t like too much water added before it breaks down.
@@venomfluidart thanks for the info! I was more interested in why use the Floetrol for cells when just water and paint does so well? Do you get better or more cells using the floetrol for your CA? I’m just curious. Thanks again!
A beginner from Australia 🇦🇺 appreciate this video. Thank you for the water tip. Julie

Namasté, I'm only a year late seeing this but better now than never😏.. Your work is phenomenal and you do make it look quite easy. I'm sure you put heart, soul, sweat and precious time into your art to be able to achieve such gorgeous outcomes. More often than not, that which is too easy isn't worth it bc if it's worth it, it won't be too easy.. your time spent was well worth it and viewing your work is like witnessing magic manifest.. blessed be
Thank you so much Tara , yes there's thousands of hours research , testing, practice in getting my results, but it's definitely been a load of fun and it's great to share with others to help them get the same results 🐨♥️
I am going to try this.if I get a reasonable result from my health scans tomorrow. I would love this thanks for showing how easy it maybe.
Fingers crossed Sandra 🤞 🥰🐨
Good to see fellow Aussie Artists x
Thank you suzi 🥰❤️
Awesome ❤
Thank you mary 💜🐨
Great job, I’ll definitely be trying it.
Thanks for video… Yes temperature has a lot to do with it… I live on Magnetic island north Queensland… And it’s not the best place to paint but never mind I enjoy it
Loved the results using the black Amsterdam best as so dramatic. I’m watching this a year after you made it and wish I had seen it before I bought a bottle of Aussietrol which Owetrol (UK equivalent to Floetrol) produced as an equivalent to Australian Floetrol! I have a pot of Amsterdam so will give it a try. Thanks?
The black works the best for both.
Great advice,thanks for sharing really useful for me ,😊not sure what to use
Thanks for the share Venom, merry Christmas 🎉
Merry Christmas nuna 🐨🎅♥️
I can't wait to try this co cool
I'm in love with your voice lol...being from so. california, it's very calming...sorry to the Misses if there is one lol...no disrespect meant. I haven't done any pours yet, but I love them and am soaking my brain with information before getting started. I love watching videos that make the process cheaper and easier...here in the states, prices are crazy right now, ty.
