Here’s an easy cell explosion! The classic FLIP CUP! If you’re looking for CELLS you need this technique in your arsenal! I always get great results and huge cells with this technique!
You need acrylic paint preferably liquitex or high pigmented paint no watered down cheaper paint as those make mud, then you need the floetrol as the pouring medium.
You mix 1 part paint to roughly 4 parts floetrol (all my work gets the same mixture) once you have your colors all mixed up then you can add just a few drops of silicone oil just 2-3 drops per color cup. Then just fold the silicone oil in a few times don’t over mix it. Then you pour you colors into the cup always down the side to prevent mixing, this creates a layer, and choose colors in order of how they will mix like yellow next to orange and then red and so on.
Once you have your cup ready to go turn the canvas upside down and place it over the cup, then flip the whole thing over keeping pressure on the cup and canvas with both hands. Once flipped over make sure the cup is centered on the canvas and lift the cup up and watch the reaction unfold before your eyes! Super cool to see!! Always fun!! This works best on a round canvas to make the tilting easier but square is ok too.

Thnks for the "stocking" strainer idea!! Love that!!
I’m so glad that Fiona in Slovenia told her audience to look you up to see your marble technique. I watched your uTube channel and then looked you up on Instagram and was amazed by all your beautiful art. The colors are so bright. Your technique and your channel are so unique even though there are so many channels with people doing fluid art. I really appreciate the lack of needless chatter.

Beautiful painting, I love your colour combinations and I know it's not really relevant but I love the sound tracks you put over your videos, reminds me of old school chilled ibiza back in the day.🤭🤗🤗I'm so pleased other youtube artists are mentioning you and sending us your way 🇬🇧
Thank you I appreciate that! 🙏
Quite beautiful indeed, BR! I am not a huge fan of cells, but I have to say this turned out really beautiful 😍!
Oh, and I super love your mixing tool!!! 😂🤣😅 That's awesome!
Thank you very much! I appreciate that! 👍🙏
👍👍👍
🙏🙏👍😎
Thanks for the way you have explained why you're pouring the paint on the sides and effects. Your mixes are easy to follow. Question... What is your base paint and Your mix for that?
Seriously you have great vision with your art. 🎨👍
Thank you very much! Base is titanium white same mixture 👍
Amazing color. Amazing Cells. 💙🧡💚 new Subscriber 💜
Thank you very much I appreciate it! 🙏
Супер!👍👍👍
Thank you 🙏
Ok 3 1/2 globs of white👍
Everything is eyeballed 👍😎
Lovely, BR!!! Your explanations are spot on perfect!! I'm curious. Do you resin or coat your artwork when dry?? And, if so, what do you use to remove the silicone?? Thanks, BR!!
Thank you! It depends on the piece but most get a spray on clear gloss finish, I have a few different ways but if you pour resin think enough you don’t need to worry about the silicone oil from my experience
@@BRTurnerART Thanks, BR!! Appreciate it!!
Amazing work!!! I'm just starting out, so have lots to learn, and videos like yours really help. Would you ever consider using household paints instead of artist grade paints in your base/pillow paints? I see lots of artist do it, and wonder why that is? Price? Convenience?
It will crack when dry I’ve found I stay away from it, it can work if used right and create some different effects but I like to keep all my mixtures the same 👍
@@BRTurnerART Thanks. 😀
Gorgeous! Do you mix your base paint with floetro too ? Just wondering..
Prettiest flip cup I've seen! Is the mixing blade in the drill a normal kitchen one or were you able to get it with the drill?
Thank you 🙏 the mixing blade can be any blade really mine is from the kitchen 👍
This is absolutely stunning, great job!!! what exact colors did you use? they work so well together.
Thank you 🙏 all liquitex 👍
@@BRTurnerART What exact colors though?
Great work buuut While the puddle was on the canvas I was hoping you would spin this one, there's just something about it spreading equally to me , stretched works great but it does change the shape of the cells. Still great painting.
For sure I’ll have a better working spinner soon 👍
@@BRTurnerART hey I found one in kohl's kitchen dept with the cake decoration items, I think I paid $22, by itself it would only spin 2 or 3 times because it was plastic, so I used a precut wood round from Homedepot, it's 18 inches in diameter and 1 1/2 inches thick and I centered it and glued it with gorilla glue, and now it spins 6 to 8 times and smooth as glass , if I could I would post a picture of my 1st spin work with it and it only cost me 26 dollars total.
I love this! You're such an amazing artist! I'm curious as to what brand silicone oil you use?
Thank you! Artist loft silicone oil 👍
love it 😀 do you varnish? If yes do you use a process to remove the excess silicone? Thanks 😁
I varnish each piece, I don’t use anything that reacts with silicone 👍
Hello Mr. Turner. I enjoy watching your videos very much. I am going to try a couple of techniques. I was wondering if you would mind telling us the size of this canvas and also, do you resin or varnish your work when it is dry? Thank you so much!
Thank you! That is a 14x14in and yes all my works gets a clear gloss finish 👍
Beautiful 💕💕!! Do you recommend any specific brand of silicone oil?
Any 100% silicone oil will work I use artist loft 👍
I'm just starting and new to paint pouring but my canvas keeps warping what am I doing wrong? Do I need to put paint on before I do my pour or is it cuz my middle has so much more paint then sides lol. Ty again I'm very new and still trying to get good technique
Try spraying the back of the canvas with water it will tighten a loose canvas, if it’s pooling in the middle you need to tilt more off 👍
Great cells! Are you using Australian or American Floetrol?
American 👍
Thanks! I just realized now you had shown us the container at the end of your video! 🙃😉
How do you keep your colors from getting muddy? What adjustments do I need
Good pigment in paint like liquitex and the ratio to floetrol not being too runny 👍
I’ve heard the silicone has to be scrubbed off before u put resin or some kind of a protective shield over ur painting is that true?
Depends on the resin and how thick it’s applied
Wow did u use a base coat on ur canvas? Also I used hair serum, the Organix coconut hair serum, just a small drop & it made it way to oily, no cells... 😞 do u use treadmill silicone or hair serum??
No base coat here and I use 100% silicone oil 👍
do you ever gesso your canvas b4 applying anything?
Not usually, I do things a bit different 👍😎
What heating tool do you use? Question should be what for the heating tool is used for? Is it necessary because I don't have it only heating gun but surface is to wide and not generate fire but hot air to dray layers of paint. What can I use to replace that toll so I create more cells! Thank you from Ana Zec all across the Europe Serbia
The torch is used to help pop any bubbles, a heat gun works as well 👍😎
Wow look like when you put a bath bomb in the bath explosion of colour's
😀👍😱
Awesome! Thank you 🙏
РОССИЯ. Великолепно!!!👍👍👍💖💖💖
Thank you 🙏
Hi BR, from New Zealand. Did you add silacone and how much please?
I add 2-3 drops per cup 👍
Una gran obra de arte maestro,¿ pero me gustaría saber cómo hacerlo? en español gracias 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🎨🎨🎨🎨🎨
Thank you 🙏
очень красиво! за счет чего получаются ячейки что добавляете в краску?
What are your chosen paint colors? Thank you
Did you add cell activator?
Silicone oil 👍
I was getting ready to comment "There is something terribly wrong with your Floetrol" and then you showed the panty hose. LOL I forgot you strained it.
I was wondering, do you sell a lot of your work? I ask because you always seem to use the 'cheapie' canvases... I truly believe they are fine, but I have to say I think a gallery wrapped canvas always looks better.
Of course these lessor canvases can be put in a floating frame and look perfect.
Just wondering aloud here, basically. Thanks
Thank you! for sure just depends on the piece
А в какие цвета добавлен флюид?
Will you do a commission with my palette?
What do you have in mind?
@@BRTurnerART A fairly large canvas with colors that match my decor. I'm not a big fan of bright, saturated colors.
What's your max size you're comfortable with?
@@BRTurnerART I like muted greens and reds, brown and tan, maybe a touch of sky blue and yellow. You know what you're doing more than I do. I haven't seen a piece I don't like.
I can do any size canvas
@@BRTurnerART How do I get in touch with you?
I can’t believe how great this looks! Like wowzers!!! Those colors are just amazing together. And WHAT?! Drill mixer!? Yes!! Soooo tired of mixing paint bro!
I’m going through and reading comments...you’ve responded to all of them! How sweet! One artist just never responds to anything. So it kinda makes me not want to watch them. I’m excited to watch your grow! And I will continue to watch!
For sure !! Thank you 🙏
