OMGSH thank you so much!! This was a perfect, simple, super helpful explanation! I appreciate it so much!! This will help me so much, as I just started pouring a few weeks ago! Very valuable information, thank you!
OMG....finally a tutorial that is easy to follow and simple on paint consistency...... Thanks so much... 👍😊
I thoroughly agree. I actually understood it. Thanx Gina
I cannot tell you how much I appreciate this particular tutorial except to tell you I really appreciate this tutorial on consistencies of paints.
I have this video open and playing each time I’m mixing! Thanks so much for taking the time to make this vid! I was so sick of the warm honey, thick cream videos 🤫. Take care and stay safe!!!
The BEST consistency video ever. Love that you used a color where you can really see the consistency. Also liked that you explained for each consistency which technique it can be used for! Thank you so much. I appreciate you taking the time to teach newbie’s like me.
My pleasure. Glad it was helpful!
I can't get over how much there is to learn. This was a terrific lesson, very much appreciated.
Paint pouring is just as much of a science as it is an art.... It is definitely not as easy as you would think it would be, so thank you for your awesome instruction! I keep trying...I think I have only done one or two paintings that I would actually hang in my house, lol.
Finally someone said it🤣 I don't know what warm honey is either.
🤣🤣
Me neither.
Thank you Gina, I love this tutorial about paint consistency.
Gina, you were one of the first artists I watched, and I have come to love this style of art....so thank you. The consistency problem is something I have struggled with too, but your video Along with Tammy Anderson's video (on mixing all colours first, adding floetrol, at ratio of 1:2, then matching all colours to the thinnest paint consistency) have added a wealth of knowledge and at the same time simplicity in solving this issue. A thousand thank yous. Hope your music is going well for you. 😁💐
I really appreciate this! Can't wait to try another pour tomorrow.
Awesome! I’m new and learning. I know you posted this a year ago… just wanted you to know you are still helping others today with this video ❤️💙💜 Thank You!
Thank you! 🙏
Rewatching this this morning and realixed I've gradually moved toward 4 and 5 on the scale in my comfort zone and feeling they were thinner than they were. Today I will push myself out of my comfort zone and make myself thin down to 2 and try a pour. I'm afraid of thin paints! Lolol.
How did it go?
This is great! Thank for taking the time and effort to show the different consistencies and what can be obtained. Fantastic tutorial ❤️❤️❤️
Perfectly explained! Thanks for the shout out too 😉
Gina, this is the best instruction I’ve ever seen. Thank you so much!!
Very helpful tutorial, ty so much for teaching us what you’ve learned through experimentation and science.
This is GREAT!! The cards, too. Most interesting! Thank you.
I'm loving the card deck idea!!!
You are a brilliant teacher
A fabulous artist
A great inspirer..
And a very cool singer
Just wow
So thrilled to see this tutorial, so scientific and undetstandable
.🎉 ❤ 😊
Yay you
Thank you for this teaching. I've wondered about consistency for different designs.
This is absolutely the best of all mixing videos. I started working on 20x20 straight pours, but after shoulder surgery, that quickly became a no, no. Now, I'm working on Chaos Style Dutch Pours. No tilting. I was also just diagnosed with Sjogrens Syndrome and the pain is outrageous, but I love fluid art
I’m sorry for your pain. I’m glad you still found a way to be creative. ❤️
Well worth the rewatch I just did!
This was so helpful Gina, Thank you! Good color choice to show the consistency....💜😊🤗😙🥰😍
Thanks Gina, I learn so much with you❣️
Got mine last week. The cards are so nice. I haven't started using them yet. I have a paint and sip party coming up and this will help the ladies.
Thank you so much for this explanation as to what consistencies work for different techniques. This will definitely be beneficial to so many.
Thank you so much for this! I have been so confused on consistency, what it means and different consistencies for different techniques. It’s all here, so I made notes. Great close ups of each cup so I can see what it looks like. This morning I did the best I have done in 3 months since I began. HopeI am on a roll. 🤞
I constantly go back to this consistency video to refresh my brain and get back to basics-- Thank you for this not only did you describe consistency but what techniques to use with what consistency level- this has prevent a lot of mess ups for me and is my go to video for planning my next pour painting.. Thank you again Gina! And your warm honey intro had me cracking up-- I was Definitely one of the warm honey researchers too lol 😆
Great tutorial, Gina! Once again you have imparted valuable information that is so helpful. Many thanks! Be well.
Thank you for explaining this. What a great help this will be 👍👍
Yes! Thank you. I needed this
You are so great at teaching. Thank you for being here.
Best consistency video EVAH!!! Thank you for this!!!
Thank you some much for this explanation. This helps a lot.
Thank you so much for explaining the difference ..so very helpful
Great tutorial Gina and I love your cards...fabulous idea 💡🥰
Thank you so much for this .....I finally understand the consistency thing now...much appreciated!♥
Thanks for such a wonderful instructional video. I made up some of your thinner of floetrol & water mix.
Thank you for this❤️❤️. Really needed to understand the consistencies ❤️. Now I can get cells with silicone 💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻
Great explanation ! Thank you for this video : clear, precise !👍👍💙💙💙
This has been the best video to explain what I need.
Thank you so much. I am just starting out and this helps a whole bunch. You do beautiful work.
Thanks so much Gina!!
Thank you for sharing, Gina!
Great information Gina. You are the best teacher. concise and straight forward. Thank you
Thank you so much for your time, commitment and knowledge, much appreciated.
Thank you so much for expaining the difference. I could not figure out why I was getting cells and sometimes not. This really helps.
Really helpful and informative tutorial....thanks so much Gina 💕
Wonderful video! Congrats on the cards..outstanding!!
Thanks for taking the time to educate!!!
Thanks for this, I'm sure it will help a lot.
Ordered my cards. Yay. What a brilliant idea. Thank you for sharing your talent.
Great video Gina! So helpful to be able to see the differences in consistency next to each other!
Personally I like fat paint lol I'm a 4 or a 5 girl for consistency 😂 I do add Liquitex Gloss Medium & Varnish to my paint and Floetrol though. I like the dried finish of the pouring medium, and I love the fact that I don't have to varnish it afterwards unless I want to. I find I can still get cells by stretching the paint a lot.. Interestingly, my last few bottles of Floetrol have been super thin.. so to maintain the consistency that I like I've been adding it just a little at a time instead of my normal measured amount (so that's another variable in the equation, Floetrol consistency).
Btw.. *your* happy accident led you down a path.. I LOVED that path! It was so exciting watching you, thinking about the science and formulas and consistencies (I was a mad scientist lol).. and then I finally did it myself and it was amazing... literally life changing. Thank you for opening up those doors and for sharing your art with us.. you are one of a kind Gina! ❤️
I’ve heard other people say their Floetrol was thin. I just got 2 gallons and they seem fine. I really shake the bejeezus out of it before I transfer to my smaller container. And yeah, everyone needs to find their own path and what they are most comfortable with. Sometimes I add other pouring mediums. Sometimes for no other reason than “why not?” The experiment is half the fun!
Mina Villegas Art any particular type of varnish that you use when adding to your pouring medium please?
@@Elitecruisesuk it's already mixed in there.. Liquitex Gloss Medium & Varnish. I don't add any additional varnish, just the LGM&V and paint and Floetrol.. if it's super thick paint then it's gets some water too..
When it dries it has a beautiful luster to it.. I don't usually feel like I need another coat of varnish on there.. but if I do I use Krylon UV resistant archival spray gloss.
Mina funny thing is, when Gina was talking about 4&5 I thought immediately of you and Sarah mack Lol. I was thinking in my head of each of my favorite artists when each number was demo'd. For 1-2 I thought of Mely D and Courtney Hoelscher (I might have spelled the last name wrong, sorry). Coz Creations (who I personally love and think is so under subscribed to) is right in the middle. Hell, I have so many faves, including the lovely Gina here, Lol.
Thank you Gina! This cleared A LOT up........God Bless
These are the best cards ever, they have helped me improve soooooo much on my colors. No more piles of mud on my canvas!!!!!🥰😍😘 I just pick a card and go straight to the video and go along with it. My husband wants to try one tonight so we will see how that goes. lol
That’s wonderful! ❤️
Excellent video! I appreciate your straight forward manner and your art is beautiful.
Gina. Thank you. I feel you made this for me.
I did!
Amazing!!
Thanks so much for this good explanation and demonstration
THANK YOU! I’ve been trying to figure out paint consistency for different types of pours. This helps tremendously! Gonna try a Dutch pour right now....
Yours is the first pouring channel I subscribed to when I discovered pouring about a year ago. Paint consistency was a major mystery to me and I still don't always get it right! Great tutorial and explanation, thanks for all you share. I got my Fluid Art Inspiration Cards last week and hope to pick a palette to play with tonight!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!! Been watching your other videos so naturally I knew your concistancy video would be great
🎉🎉🎉 Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU! I dont want cells in most all my pours so thank you for explaining
Great tutorial, Gina! Thank you so much! Between you and Tammy Andersons recent video on consistently, many of us will be on a brighter path for pouring! Awesome!
Just excellent! thank you!
Thank you!!! And I will also be buying the cards- they are exactly what I need 💜
Thank you so much for this tutorial it is so helpful.
OMG that explains everything as to why some of my art work has failed. I agree with floetrol it does wonders. I love my cards and thank you for answering questions for my problems. You're awesome.
Thanks Gina!
Thank you Gina. This was very helpful I hope. When I get back to the work table.
I appreciate your input!
We got you cards and just love them, so many great ideas. Thanks for doing that. 👍🏻
Gina, you were the very first Video I watched on Paint Pouring. You had me hooked, I spent 2 wks watching all your Videos. You are a very Talented Artist, Singer and a great Instructor. This Video is very helpful since I am always doubting myself. My second challenge is what colors to use together. Fortunately, thanks to you, I just purchased Go Make Some Art! Fluid Art Inspiration Cards, this will take care of my second challenge. I am so excited to use them. Thank you Gina for everything you have shared, not to mention all of your time. You are a true inspiration to me.
Thank you so much for the information. It's very helpful
Thank you for a very informative and clear video on paint consistency
Thank you so much. Much appreciated!
Great tutorial, thank you so much...💕💕👏🏼👏🏼💕💕
Excellent advice thank you
Gina, thanks for this breakdown on consistency. Great visual! “Jabba the hutt”🤣🤣🤣! You are one of the first artists that enticed me into this genre and I am still learning from you. Big thanks❤️, Pam
Thank you for this, Gina! You just made it all very clear. No more confusion and frustration for me. God bless you!
Thank you for sharing this information with us!
YES!!!! Thank you sooo much for this wonderful video. Very very helpful. You Rock!!!!! 👍🤗
Thank you for these explanation.
Love how helpful and informative your videos are! Thank you for this one! 🧡🤗🥰
Thank You Gina! Very helpful Video!!!
I wish I could give more than one thumbs-up to this. "Warm honey?" Yeah. I even ended up making a video about that and the other things people would compare their paint consistency to. I have been appreciating your "makes a mound" method which you've been using in your regular pour videos; it's even better to have this video which compares them side by side. And, YES, newbies tend to fall into the "I must find the perfect recipe!" trap -- and often follow other people's recipes slavishly and find they don't work at all for them, because they are using different brands of paint, or different colours, or metallics, or non-metallics, or are in a different climate, or don't adjust the mix to make the different colours consistent with each other. you hit the nail on the head that what is important is the consistency, and even more, that all the paints which one is using in the same painting have the same consistency as each other. And I've also appreciated the point you're making that different techniques may call for different consistencies. Me, I don't vary my consistencies because I value the convenience of pre-mixing my paints (and storing them in squeeze bottles) more than I value the control of adjusting on a per-painting basis, but that doesn't mean it isn't worth thinking about.
Wonderful video on consistency! Thanks!
Thanks, Gina. This was really one of the most helpful videos I have watched. You covered so much from cell formation to consistancy of paint when pouring. Seeing the comparisons of showing paint viscosity at each level and explaining what viscosity for different techniques makes it easier to understand the hows and whys. I have been painting for years and have watched your videos for many months now as fluid art is new for me and exciting and very popular these days. I very rarely comment. I should and will more often as I respect and so appreciate the effort put in these videos. I will get the cards.
Thank you. I’m so glad it was helpful!
Thank you thank you. I watch a lot of your videos and have learned a lot from your technique and methods. Consistency has proven to be my biggest problem.
Sooooo HELPFUL!!! Please continue tutorials like this for beginners.
Excellent explanation explained. Must watch video!!!! 👍
Than you GINA💕
Thank you so much❤
Thank goodness Gina, I love this tutorial, much appreciated 🙏🏼❤️

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! Very helpful video!
Huge help, after a couple of months of pouring, I have figured out alot. This cuts to the chase, thank you. 🤩
Simple and very instructive. So helpful to me as a beginner. Thank you so much!
Perfect explanation 👌 👏 👍
