So glad you shared this. It is true that the difficulties of going to a big canvas are unique and the only way to know is to do it. This is what scares me about going big - that what I can create on a smaller scale won’t translate larger. Nothing is a fail - all of it is a learning curve! ❤❤❤ can’t wait to see the final piece next week.
That's the hardest part of painting a huge canvas - All the preparation and thought and time to finally get there, then it fails. We feel as we failed, but we must keep going! I can't wait to see the next video. Thank you for sharing this with us I think we all learn and grow from these times and it also helps us understand even our biggest mentors fail as well! Looking forward :)
I completely agree with what you said Angelia 😁 Sara is definitely someone I look up to SO much and it was nice to see that even she has some that don't go as she would like. Great comment! ❤😁🥰
Hello Sara, I am so glad you shared this as well. I feel like there are a lot of viewers of this technique (acrylic pouring) that are under the impression that if an artists is skilled enough to share their videos, that they get the perfect out come every time. I have been pouring for about 6 years and I know that this is simply not true. So I commend you on your bravery in sharing this. That being said, I started on large canvasses as a beginner and rarely do anything smaller than 16x16. Especially without a blow dryer. I've never mastered the art of laying down paint and then tilting it to my satisfaction. In my opinion it's one of the hardest techniques there is. So I envy your talent. One thing I might suggest or that I noticed is that perhaps you might want to go a little thicker with your paints. I say this because I almost always do Dutch pours and they always require a really thin paint. Anytime Ive tried to tilt rather than blow, the mess it makes reminds me every time, that I need a thicker paint for more control. Your colors were stunning and I could see where you were going. I just think that because of the thinness, it just got away from you. Too hard to control. What do you think happened? Thank you for allowing me to see your creations. So inspiring. Dedra. 😉
I paint large paintings mostly and what I learned with these is two things: limit the amount of paint you put on canvass and make your paints a thicker consistency 😊
Happy new year to you! You are THE most inspirational fluid artist. Thank you for sharing this video. I totally felt for you as you tilted and things got worse. But I adore this color palette and can’t wait to see the successful painting video. So much to learn from you!
Thank you for saying this! What a fabulous compliment. My wheels were turning for a few weeks after this and then it dawned on me! I think ultimately, this was rushed, and I was not in the right headspace.😁❤️
Thanks so much for showing us this. The only wasted paints are the ones that stay in the tube/bottle/can! This size is so daunting. You’re brave my friend! Looking forward to the next one
Thanks for sharing this one Sara! This is being brave and fearless as an artist and helps us understand the tests and steps to reach a successful outcome! Love all you teach and share with us! Can't wait to see the successful outcome of this! Happy New Year, sweet lady!
I admire your work so much, and to see you not get one how you want it made me feel better, i dont know the answer with such a big canvas, but me personally i just stand and look at mine and say oh dear what went wrong, i dont do big ones, im talking about small ones, and for a while in my trying to learn i threw away canvases as i did not know you could scrap them off, i cant wait to see how you go with that monster, and Happy New Year.
Thank you so much for sharing it even if you thought it wasn't what you wanted. I listen very closely to the things you say to try to learn as much as I can in hopes to paint like you one day. I definitely got some good little tid bits in you talking about what you felt didn't work. I LOVED what you did on the smaller one and can not wait to see what you did with that Huge canvas 😁🥰
This was my hope, I’m so glad you got something from it! I’ve had other canvases work out, but this one I really wanted to share just for this reason.💕
Happy new year Sara, wishing you nothing but success, peace, light and joy for the coming year. 🙏🏻✨ Can’t wait to see the large finished piece Sara. Love and light sweet lady. ❤✨🌻🌻🌻
I can't really express how much I appreciate this video, your knowledge, and yes, your failure. I've been thinking about a pearl pour as a background for a huge tree of life sculpture I created. I've been putting it off because, honestly, I didn't know how to be able to begin on a large canvas. I should clarify, a large canvas for me😊... yours is humongous😁! The effects you were getting on the smaller canvas were stupendous and very interesting! I definitely will be doing many test pieces with your recipe and techniques. I think it would be a perfect match for my intention. I'm just so grateful for your work and knowledge because it saves me so much money, time, and grief. I'll have plenty of the later just getting my test pieces to come out, looking even half of what I see in my mind. I also want to thank you for helping me on my journey of pearl pours because when I use your knowledge, I always come out with something good... even if it doesn't look like anything that I intended 😋. All your videos are a gift to me. I've learned so much from you. I wish I could support you more. But I do shop your Amazon link. I hope this year brings you many blessings and so much joy! I can't believe how big your girl is getting! What a joy right there, watching her grow into a young lady... and your twins, too! And, what an awesome mom and example you are for them! I can't wait to see how you worked out your massive painting... it's very exciting! 😊✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️
Looking back and catching up on comments, I don’t know how I missed this one! I really hope to meet you someday, Tera,I would love to teach you in person! I feel like you understand me on so many levels, thank you for your beautiful comments, encouragement, and grace.💕
Thanks for sharing, Sara! We are all learning right along with you! This canvas is HUGE!! I have a 48x60 that I want to tackle, but I will be doing lots of small ones for practice first! :) Great video!
I have a huge canvas like this and yes, total disaster..scraped and it’s been waiting for its next idea now for a year..lol but you learn from it and remember it’s just paint. Not an ER. Thanks for sharing!❤
Happy new year, ful of joy and creativity! Thank you for sharing this, it was a great lesson! What I learned is that there needs to be support on the back to make the canvas completely flat and not curve in the center from the weight of the paint.
Oh that's a BIIIIG canvas, so sorry the first attempt failed, but your so right, it's an important learning process. Can't wait to see the big ones in the next video. 😊 Thank you so much for sharing, both the testpices and the fail. 🤗
Well, I must be learning a lot because I have scrapped my one canvas 6 times! It never seems to turn out to be what I see in my head. Thank you for showing us your humanity, lol. And thank you for your positive attitude.
Thank you for showing this...don't often see our Sara fail at anything. My heart sank for you and then I thought I should tell you that after 2 years I am still struggling with moving up to anything bigger than a 20x20 substrate. My love to you.
I think I speak for most of us when I say it’s extremely helpful seeing mistakes and “supposed” fails. I’m learning so much from you. Can’t thank you enough! 🩵🤎💛
Hi Sarah, it’s so good you sharing this video. It re-enforces that it’s not only ourselves who can go through this. If someone of your standard can have a canvas that doesn’t go the way you visualised, then there’s hope for us. Happy New Year to you & your family. 🎉
Going big is so much different!! I only work on large canvas and have a ton leftover base paint. The tilting is very different than with small paintings and I end up tilting only a few directions vs all 4. Good luck with this Sara.
I have been really nervous about going big because I know the ratios and consistency needs to be altered! This was helpful and I'm glad you explained it the way you did, it makes perfect sense! The small canvas was gorgeous and I can't wait to see the success! Happy new year, Sara!
Sara I love seeing your fail. I hate that it happened but it truly does give encouragement! I have so many buckets of scrapped paint. It’s nice to know someone like you that always makes such beautiful art pieces can have a fail.
Thanks for sharing the difficulties you experienced with this large canvas. I have never attempted a pearl pour on anything larger than a 18×24 so this is helpful for someone like myself. Maybe if you try something like winterstromart does when she does a concentrated section closer together and then stretch it out, maybe that would help get less mixed up colors and still be able to achieve negative space. I don't know, just a thought 🙂
I did a large format painting on a wood platform that my dad built for me a few years ago. I found it very difficult to manage. The paint didnt go as far as i needed it to so all of the definition was over stretched and wonky. I had wished at the time that i had mixed more paint a bit thicker and poured smaller sections...maybe...it was a lot of paint and ive never tried to do it over. I just let it dry. Thanks for sharing your experience. Id love to see how the good one turned out. Maybe I'll try again.
Thank you Sara for sharing this. I've only known one other UA-cam artist that actually scraped a canvas on camera and explained why. These scenarios are very helpful. I look forward to seeing the successful outcome. It is so frustrating when you take the time to not only mix but calculate how much paint per color... It can be exhausting especially when you aren't sure if it's going to work. Happy New Year. 🥰
I love that test canvas, the end result is beautiful! I can do ok with smaller canvases, but when I've tried to go a bit bigger (not as big as that one!) I always have issues with the paint moving while let to dry and typically having a blurry mess somewhere near the center the next day. I always tell myself to make sure I tilt as much paint as possible out of the canvas but I'm still trying to get something as nice as what I can get with a smaller canvas. I've thought of trying with my paints just a bit thicker, that'll likely give me less pearls but I'd like to see how it looks like and if it helps with the paint moving less. Thank you for sharing also when it doesn't go as planned, it helps me feeling a bit less frustrated when it happens and I'm sure we can all learn too. 💜
I totally understand! Pooling is an issue with fluid art often times. One thing I can suggest is to spray the top and bottom of the canvas in advance with water to make sure that it is nice and tight.
Ugh I’ve had those “fails” where the paints all streak together and there’s just no saving it. Good call on scraping. We all scrape, right?? Can’t wait to see the success!! 😘
You can see where it's about to go wrong right when all the paint starts to run and pool toward the center. Knowing how thin paint loves to mix, my thought is to add and stretch colors one at a time where you want them. I know though that this may wreck some beautiful pearls. Bringing in the memory of how you add and subtract color and details, it seems logical that you'd just scale that part up. Anxious to see how you end up achieving your vision.
These experiences allow us to learn from, so thank you for sharing your comments and suggestions. It takes honesty, courage and humility to show this video! Few are the artists that do it. I feel for you because of the time spent envisioning your piece, the preparation it took and the wasted material, ending up with a fail. But fortunately, and thanks to your perseverance and confidence, the second attempt was a success and I look forward to seeing it. Btw, the song is beautiful! Do you know its name and who sings it?
Absolutely not! Fluid art comes with so much experimentation and failure. As years go by, I take these as lessons. I remember being so heartbroken the first time I scraped a large canvas. This was just like well didn’t work out… Let’s try again!
I really loved that one part of magenta and white on top.. The end result wasn't too bad, but if you're going for something different, then you have to do what you have to do.. : )
In retrospect, I maybe would not have scraped the paint off… I think I had id done it again I would go in with some oil to see what I could make of it.
Thank you Sara for sharing the video. Each time we fail it’s a lesson and we learn. The first painting was so beautiful and I’m sure you’ll will succeed next time. You r so gifted and creative, I’m sure that u will come up with a perfect solution May `I write to u in the mail regarding a privet lesson? We r 10 hours a part, I’m on the other side of the globe. I still won’t very much to take a lesson or more with u but I’d like to ask some questions before we make an appointment. Happy New `year and best of luck with your next painting. Can’t wait 💖🍷💖🎊💖🎉🙏🤞
Thank you so much for your kind words! Would you like to send me an email and we can figure out a time that would work for a lesson? My email address is info@stmodernart.com I look forward to hearing from and working with you.🙏
@annegoodwinstudioOh my… this has happened to me before… did a painting in the wrong mindset and didn’t truly think everything through enough. I found I used too many colours, so when I tipped- longer to reach destination -they ended up mixing for too long.Total mess 😂 I just simplified my colours and repositioned my head and gave myself more time. Love to know how yours went second time around…. I was sooo annoyed, then frustrated and cross with myself…. I just had to let go before it messed with my next painting. X
Thank you so much for saying this, it really got me thinking. The day I did this painting I was not in the right mindset either. I think it drastically influences the outcome if we are not “feeling it”. Thank you for your insight and kind words.
That’s a good thought, with these types of paintings. The paint Hass to be extremely thin. I think ultimately it was more of a volume and tilting issue. Stay tuned for next Friday’s video I worked it out!😁
Sinä sait minut innostumaan pouring taiteeseen. Siitä video pouring taidetta Warkaus. Parhaat maalaukset revontulet 1 ja 2.in english :northern lights. Minulle tuttua yrittää uudelleen kuten sinun iso maalaus. Vaikka on maalannut kymmeniä vuosia, uuden tekniikan kokeilu kiinnostaa. Suomessa pouring tietous lisääntyy. Thank you and all pouring Fans. Olli
This was the worst video for me to watch! I haven’t painted for two years due to health issues and also a run of frustration with my work involving much scraping of paint. I was going to start again this week and your video popped up and I thought ok I’ll have a quick watch…. Grr not a good idea lol😂
It was not bad on the big screen. it was not necessary to remove the paint. A little white light and everything shined. we are waiting for the continuation.
I appreciate that, it was a bit of a hard decision, but I decided I would rather use that huge canvas for something that worked out better. Thanks for your words.
Sara, I really love that you decided to post this. Mistakes, I think, are the best way to learn. Thank you! Sandy
Glad it was helpful!

I really appreciate your feedback! He hesitated before sharing, but I thought it might be a good learning lesson for using thin paint.
You either get a win or you learn something. Thank you for sharing this journey with your viewers ❤

Happy new year! Thank you so much, I’m excited to share more about this process.🎊
Solo i grandi artisti possono permettersi di mostrare i loro errori.
Sei sempre la numero uno.
I appreciate that, thank you!
Awww Sara Ty for showing it! I can’t wait to see your victory piece! 🤍🤍
Oh that's a BIIIIG canvas, so sorry the first attempt failed, but your so right, it's an important learning process. Can't wait to see the big ones in the next video. 😊 Thank you so much for sharing, both the testpices and the fail. 🤗
I’m glad you think so, more to be revealed!🙏💕
Thank you for this video. This is how we learn

You are so welcome!
Thanks for sharing the tough stuff as well as the good. Appreciate the knowledge transfer and respect your bravery!
I appreciate that!
I think I speak for most of us when I say it’s extremely helpful seeing mistakes and “supposed” fails. I’m learning so much from you. Can’t thank you enough! 🩵🤎💛
That makes me so happy, I’m glad it was worth posting this!❤️❤️
Thanks for sharing this video. I tried a large one as well and had to scrape it. I'm looking forward to seeing your successful one.
I’m excited to share next Friday the solution, at least for this particular composition and concept. Thank you for your kind words!
Hi Sarah, it’s so good you sharing this video. It re-enforces that it’s not only ourselves who can go through this. If someone of your standard can have a canvas that doesn’t go the way you visualised, then there’s hope for us. Happy New Year to you & your family. 🎉
Truly inspirational for me.....Thanks for sharing! I'll stay the course rather than pack it in. Much luv!
That’s awesome!
Going big is so much different!! I only work on large canvas and have a ton leftover base paint. The tilting is very different than with small paintings and I end up tilting only a few directions vs all 4. Good luck with this Sara.
Thank you so much, Cheryl!
Thank you for sharing this video. ❤ can't wait to see the next one 😊

Thanks for sharing the difficulties you experienced with this large canvas. I have never attempted a pearl pour on anything larger than a 18×24 so this is helpful for someone like myself. Maybe if you try something like winterstromart does when she does a concentrated section closer together and then stretch it out, maybe that would help get less mixed up colors and still be able to achieve negative space. I don't know, just a thought 🙂
I did a large format painting on a wood platform that my dad built for me a few years ago. I found it very difficult to manage. The paint didnt go as far as i needed it to so all of the definition was over stretched and wonky. I had wished at the time that i had mixed more paint a bit thicker and poured smaller sections...maybe...it was a lot of paint and ive never tried to do it over. I just let it dry. Thanks for sharing your experience. Id love to see how the good one turned out. Maybe I'll try again.
I’m glad this gave you some encouragement, did you see the one that I did after?
You are great besides that! Looking forward to see the next one!❤thanks for sharing with us
Thank you! 🤗
Thank you Sara for sharing this. I've only known one other UA-cam artist that actually scraped a canvas on camera and explained why. These scenarios are very helpful.

Yeah, this was just one of those days nothing went right! Looking back, I realize I just was not in the right state of mind.
This is very helpful. Canvas over board might work better?
Yes, definitely i

Maybe paint mixed so much because it was too thin?
That’s a good thought, with these types of paintings. The paint Hass to be extremely thin. I think ultimately it was more of a volume and tilting issue. Stay tuned for next Friday’s video I worked it out!😁
Lol I will!
Sinä sait minut innostumaan pouring taiteeseen. Siitä video pouring taidetta Warkaus. Parhaat maalaukset revontulet 1 ja 2.in english :northern lights. Minulle tuttua yrittää uudelleen kuten sinun iso maalaus. Vaikka on maalannut kymmeniä vuosia, uuden tekniikan kokeilu kiinnostaa. Suomessa pouring tietous lisääntyy. Thank you and all pouring Fans. Olli
Thank you Ollie 😁
Thanks for sharing your fail. It helps us to see that. you guys don't get it right every time.
It’s so true! Fluid art can take us for a ride sometimes, we just have to stay on.😁
This was the worst video for me to watch! I haven’t painted for two years due to health issues and also a run of frustration with my work involving much scraping of paint. I was going to start again this week and your video popped up and I thought ok I’ll have a quick watch…. Grr not a good idea lol😂
I hope you tune in next Friday for the successful painting. I am hoping the takeaway after seeing both of them is to not give up.💕
It was not bad on the big screen. it was not necessary to remove the paint. A little white light and everything shined. we are waiting for the continuation.
I appreciate that, it was a bit of a hard decision, but I decided I would rather use that huge canvas for something that worked out better. Thanks for your words.
Keep going ❤🎉
Sometimes a fail is a success because we learn it’s just the paint used that is irritating 🩶 but thanks for being authentic…
I appreciate this, after some contemplation, I realize I was not in a very good mindset going into this either, I don’t think that helped.😅
