I am able to consistently get the same effect when using the same paints. The magenta and yellow will show up in cells every time. Especially the yellow, and whatever color I mix it with.
This was a 24x24 in Canvas. Paints are mixed to a VERY thin consistency. 1 Paint: 2 Floetrol thinned to consistency with a 90% water +10% floetrol mixture. Basecoat is Artist's Loft white and Floetrol. Colors are Dioxazine Purple, Prism Violet, Quinacridone Magenta and Cadmium Yellow Light Hue. I believe the Cadmium Yellow Light Hue is more cell reactive than the medium or deep hues.

Hello. I'm just watching your video now, and I can't (or just don't want to) read through all of the nearly 900 comments so maybe someone already said what I'm about to say. So if I'm just an echo, I apologize.
I make my own paints for a different kind of art (not for my pouring art, that would be too big a chore!). But I can add a bit to your wonderful discussion about specific gravity and the glossier or more matte texture of the paints.
Paint is made of tiny particles of pigment in some sort of medium to make them spread evenly and stick to a surface... we all know that much. When a paint manufacturer says their paint is glossy, satin, eggshell finish - whatever, they're basically referring to the medium that holds the paint together. If they use the same medium for all of a series, and that medium dries shiny, or satin, or whatever it does, then that's how the paint is described. But as you've seen and stated, different pigments have different properties which do affect the result.
Some pigments are hydrophilic, meaning they love water. In a water-based paint (and acrylic is still a water-based paint... any paint that cleans up with water is water based), hydrophilic pigments absorb more water, and absorb anything carried by water, like acrylic, and therefore they tend to turn out more matte, because more of the medium is inside the molecules of the paint.
Hydrophilic pigments are also less streaky, because they're not fighting the water, and they're easier to make paint with, because they blend into the medium easily. So in the high quality artists grade paints they may be less expensive because of that. (It also depends how easy the pigment is to find, and to purify, and other steps in paint making. Many reds and yellows tend to be hydrophilic- but not all.
On the opposite end of things are pigments that are hydrophobic. When you have a small mound of dry pigment a drop of water beads on top instead of being absorbed. These pigments usually require more mulling (in paint making, mulling is the process of blending the powdered pigment into the paint medium with a flat tool, so that each tiny piece smushes and sticks to more of the rest. Imagine a cereal like kix or cheerios as pigment, and milk as the medium. If you press the cereal against the bottom of the bowl with the back of a spoon, you get more mush that sticks to the side of the bowl and to other cereal. You're doing the same process with making paint. The more squashed, the better.
Blue pigments are often hydrophobic, which makes them both shinier and a bit streakier and they often need a bit more of the paint medium to hold them together as paint... but then they'll be a bit translucent.
That means that shiny paints are less likely to stick to anything, including each other and other paint. You can mix any colors, and they'll eventually get mixed and look like a uniform shade... maybe a good one, maybe a terrible shade, but they'll play together. But a hydrophobic paint laid OVER another paint, like in a fluid pour, isn't putting enough movement or pressure to mix. So it moves away... and when one paint moves a bit off another, you get cells!
Thank you for bringing this up, because I knew this about paint, but I hadn't really put it together in a way that I could refer to!
Great information! Thank you!
Awesome, thanks for that!!
Wonderful information..How do you find out which ones are hydrophobic?
This person is very knowledgeable about paint! Wow!!
Very important information to have for paint pouring to be thereby guided in paint color choices. Thank you for putting in these comments.
Gina, thanks for your detailed descriptions of how to make art happen. I am 72 years old and used to be able to draw paint and sculpt. Nowadays my hand shakes but pouring will allow me to continue the creative work I need to do. With your videos I am already starting to get this after only 4 days. Keep up the good work.
Good luck with your pouring Lee! Would love to see your pieces :)
This is a lovely comment, hope you make plenty pieces!
Wish we could see!!
Somehow I missed this comment. Thank you for your kind words. How are things coming along?
Hi Gina, I am having a great time learning how to do this. There are so many variables to the technique and I am seeing good results. Your videos are a tremendous help and incentive. Thanks again! Ps: still can't get those beautiful large cells but will keep working at it. Lee
This is still one of the best acrylic pours I’ve ever seen, thus deserves more views
This is the coolest thing I ever saw! That composition is beautiful.
This work is so stunning, I'm blown away by the look and the colors! I was so intrigued, that I took notes so I can try this! GORGEOUS❤
Once again absolutely stunning. Great job explaining how this process works.
Perfection. You are very generous to share all of your knowledge and experiments. The white edges with the feathering is gorgeous.
Thank you Deby. ❤️ I wound up making it black anyway. 😂 I may have to switch to a different white. I've noticed that the artists Loft flow acrylic doesn't like being that thin. It has to be as thin as the poured paint or it doesn't spread right. Definitely noticeable on these big canvases. Up close, the feathering doesn't look great in that white. I will try a higher quality paint and see if the white holds up better then.

Oh my word, this is super gorgeous-the colors you chose, and the way it all turned out after you maneuvered the paints by tilting here and there-congratulations!
Absolutely STUNNING!!! Love, love, LOVE it!!
Thank you for explaining what you have learned in achieving your beautiful techniques! I have only recently been made aware of acrylic pours and I am anxious to try. This painting is beautiful.
This was absolutely beautiful ! Good job! Great motivation for me to finally get started on acrylic painting.
It's gorgeous. Looks as if it was lit from within, it just glows. Love it.
Stunning work - thank you for being so generous with sharing - inspirational!
This is a striking color combination. Thank you for the tutorial type video, you allow people to learn from you I think that is very generous 💕
Normally I fast forward through the slow parts of a video but you have so much helpful information I dare not skip! Thank you for laying out the entire process!
This is beautiful! I absolutely love this color combination, the cells are gorgeous...
Thank you for your detailed descriptions, many do not do this....!
Yes, it’s perfect! I love all the cells and their depth! Vibrant colors too!
love your channel I wish I could show you just how much you helped me increase my skills... a lot of other users miss steps and little tips that help get great results that I find in your videos.
You can post pics in Go Make Some Art! on Facebook. 😉
You are a freakin genius Gina DeLuca!♥️
Talented and smart!!! I am so interested to see where you go with your theories!!! Love your work!!!!!
Fantastic! Thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge!
FYI, if you contact Liquitex for samples to review on your sight, they will probably consider sponsoring you. Good luck!
Your "WHY" and 'BECAUSE' detail comments are very very helpful.
Sooo beautiful - thanks for sharing this with us!
This is one of the most beautiful acrylic pours that I have seen. Thank you.
Brilliant ! And FINALLY someone gives the paint mixing ratio! Ty!
Katherine Sullivan yes true..so many other artists give ‘half baked’ info that’s just not helpful for those that r learning
having a hard time hearing the mix...
I’m confused on what she means tho. She’s doing a non silicone pour and just using floe water and paint and then a 90/10 mixture of water and floe? ? ?
Yes. 1paint:2floetrol thinned to proper consistency with the 90%water/10%floetrol mixture.
Gina DeLuca I just started pouring. I have cells when I pour but they pop if I move the pour around at all. I use silicone and have tried 2:1 floetrol or Cheadle’s formula involving Liquitex pouring medium, gloss medium, water, floetrol and Gac 800. Still, no stable cells!! Comment?
Gina, I love your theories and exploration of properties and outcomes. It helps me understand why my attempts didn't work and what I can try next. The translucent/opaque questions as well as the matte/satin comparison are really interesting and informative. For those of us who didn't go to art school, watching your process, is a great learning experience. Thank you!
I didn't go to art school either. 😉
I'm just obsessed with figuring out why one yellow works and the other doesn't. Once I noticed that all the cells I got were matte compared to background I started perseverating on it.
Wow! What beautiful cells. I am totally in awe. I love your work!
You are an amazing teacher.. You teach so well and talk about all details.. I am so glad that I subscribed your channel and enjoy watching you create your masterpiece..
I have tried this theory with different colors, and the yellow is a definite color that needs to be used ! I will post some of my pics and tag you in them so you can see what I got, I will use the opaque/ transparent theory next time! ♥️ love your videos!
I have noticed that certain liquitex satin paints usually dry matte...I've been using Decoart acrylic flow paints and floetrol....I am getting good results,and I seem to use less paint than liquitex... Easier mixing time too ! I love yellow cells, so I guess I need to get a liquitex light yellow! I love the color! I bought a painting from Sandra Lett and she is the swiping Queen! 🤩🤩 I remembered her mention your name in a video about loving your cells! Well I'm going to enjoy your videos!
WOW, this is the most beautiful pour I have seen! Thank you forsharing!
i'm in love with this piece. i will try this technique to see the variations i can create. love it.
That is beautiful. I will have to try something like this. It looks very fun. Thank you. Subscribed! 😋
this is the first video of yours I have seen & daaamn! what a tutorial- full scientific method momentt! I'm here for it- SUBSCRIBED :D
Thank you 🙏
Wow! Love the colours and effect.
Wow Gina, thank you so so much for all the detailed info! This is the first time I have seen one of your videos and it is perfect! Thank you so so much!
Hi, thanks for the info. Keep up the good work! At 23 min I found myself tilting my phone together with you!! Lol
Ha! I do that too!
Absolutely beautiful work! And thank you for listing everything you used in the video in the info.
You are such an awesome artist, Gina. You have taught me something with each of yoir videos. You ROCK,
I’ve watched hundreds of videos and while I like to hear about someone’s dog barfing all over the bed or how bad their bunions are (sarcasm) I really just want to learn. You, by far, are an incredibly talented and generous teacher. I’ve learned more in a week than I have in six months. So thank you Gina...I honestly feel like I just might be able to do this.
Mary Haldeman o Lordy..lol thank u for saying that, it’s irritating too..why some get so off topic!! 😀
I'm so used to this and having to skip 90% of people's videos and every time I skip ahead on her videos I realize I've actually genuinely missed good information
just give it a try..you might even keep the video on while u do your first piece. . get your gear, and gloves.. start the video.. (it will be good if u can stop and rewind it.. maybe have a friend with u - that might make it more fun.. )
and GO. anyone can do this..it's lots of fun . be warned in advance -- this is one sweet addiction. Can't wait to see what u create? Join the fluid art madness tribe. You're gonna love it.
Links to those videos?
Have you gotten into it yet?
Am I the only one that finds watching this soooooo relaxing?
I think its her voice.
I agree and then the cup slipped and it made me jump! :)
I find it very relaxing.
Me too...I watched the paint flow drop by drop...
I fell asleep lol
Absolutely amazing!gorgeous choice of colors.
Thanks for all the details, much appreciated! Love these cells!
That was so informative and drop dead gorgeous! Someone should
sponsor you !
A great experiment, thanks for sharing your work. I’m still wishing for Floetrol to come to UK instead of the expensive Ewatrol which comes from Germany. I’ll try to follow your recipe if I can , but will end up using more water to make my Ewatrol go further, and then adding a little binder . If I get to sell my paintings then I won’t mind paying the price. Thanks again , ❤️. 👍. 🇬🇧
As a Brit am not getting costly Owatrol when can have plenty of cells using combinations of paint, PVA, oil and water.
Understandable. For me, Floetrol is cheaper than glue. $13/gallon. We have to use what is available to us.
Hi, I honestly prefer the Owatrol to the floetrol .
Jo Radcliffe hello, would you please share this recipe of yours? I'm in Greece and I can't seem to find any floetrol anywhere, so I add pva, silicone and water, but the oil you've mentioned sounds interesting!! Thank you!!
Jo Radcliffe
Can I know what oil to use?
Gina, thank you for all the explanations you give.
Gina, It was gorgeous with the white borders-
It's still a beautiful piece, thank you for sharing your work.
Oil. Oil is the difference in the pigments that makeup the different colors. The color is made out of oil based dyes for which hold the "pigmented" part of the paint which then is cut into a base OF acrylic. Deeper hues require more pigments that have a higher density of oil within them. It does not take much to make huge difference. All latex is an acrylic, however, "latex" paints depending on the brand or manufacturer, can have a base of more or less emulsifiers, plasticizers... all proprietary to the purpose of the paint. Artists acrylics are formulated with less of the things that are good for even level solid color, which in my opinion, is a little backwards, but it does make for some brilliant colors that mix well.
Hi Chris, you seem to know a thing or two. For cells without using silicone I read that it's down to layering denser paint over less dense paint. This then makes it rise and fall and give cells. Any idea how you know which is less dense? Especially after it's mixed with floetrol? I'm wondering if the oil content you mention is involved? Thx!
Kinda Krafty this is a PDF of Golden Acrylics paint densities. Although it is specific to the Golden brand, you can generalize it for other brands. Hope this helps!
This must be your fav. color combo.
I do love it, but was studying how they reacted together. Will be moving to a new color palette today.
My comment was not meant to be negative, hopefully not taken that way
Gina DeLuca I love these colors as well so much and was the reason I clicked this! I try and try with colors like that and it doesn't turn out amazing half the time
That was not meant to be a negative comment
I didn't take it as such. 😉
This was so insightful. I’ve watched soooo many videos and picked up different techniques but there was no science or order and you’ve been so helpful. I absolutely love this piece. You are such an inspiration. Thank you so much!
You are an excellent teacher! Amazing, inspiring!
Kind of looks like the colour scheme used in tangled when the sky was lit with thousands of lanterns
Amazing painting tho
You are one of the best teachers I have found. Thanks for going slowly and clearly. The men mostly talk at 100 MPH with a load of irrelevant stuff thrown in! You keep to the point. thanks.
God Bless You for the magnificent work you do. Life changing.
Love your work and. Thank you for all the wonderful tips!
Molten lave
Dang,
That "Prism Violet" should be called "Prison Violent".
I hate it when my paint "Fights Back", I may just have to "Break the Chemical Bond"....
.... You are a such a good teacher, so many important points to note in your tutorials, I always learn something valuable on your videos.
Thanks Pourfessor DeLuca,
GOD (Jesus ) Bless You !!
I love these colours
Beautiful work! Thank you so much for taking the time to explain things about technique & which colors cell & why. These were questions I had & you answered them!
Hi Gina.. What is causing the cells if you are no using silicone? The water?? And how much WATER/Flotrol is added to the 1 part paint and 2 parts flotrol? thanks1
I don’t measure. I add water/flo mix until I get the right consistency. When you drizzle off the stick, the paint immediately disappears into the paint in a cup. If it makes a mound, it’s too thick.
A creative mind cannot be organized.
That is soooo true!
Why?
Because the mind is concentrated on entropic creativity rather than organisation ?
Not true. I am organized AND extremely creative. :)
@@Videomama1972 You and your mind are not always the same thing :) There is only one you, but in your mind there can be a collection of you on different levels of creativity and organization. Eg. As a mom you may be creative and organized, but as an artist, teacher or scientist you may not, and it is still about you.
I am fully disorganized at home, but am considered well organized at work, broadly understood work, ie. Not only a job. Creativity changes also with age. The same applies to being organized. Some uncannily organized ppl live in dirt and disorder as they grow older. Things may change. Creativity and controlled, organized chaos are natural friends. God seems to prefer organized chaos in creativity too. Hence mutations built in our existence. Organized, controlled chaos that makes room for the unexpected.
I love this you have such great control of pour the cells are beautiful and the colors are great
WOW ... I can't believe what I see ... it's a unique MASTERPIECE with timeless beauty !!
I have been watching your videos for a few days now. I love them!!!! By the way, the Dalai Lama said something to the effect of one should approach everything in life with wild abandon. Art is messy, as it should be! BTW, this is what the Dalai Lama said: "Approach cooking and love with reckless abandon." I reckon that can apply to art.
Provide them with this information and ask why.
BRAVISSIMA, GINA... !
TUTTO CIO' CHE FAI, TI VIENE BENISSIMO.
Ciao **
Beautiful colors
You are an amazing teacher. I taught for 30 years and you are a natural. Thanks for your generosity .❤😊
Excellent video, I’ve just discovered this style of painting video and have watched dozens of videos in the last week. Yours is extremely informative, probably the best so far.
Stunning
I love this! I love the colors and how they look together. When it was poured, but not yet stretched, that was so beautiful to me!
Beautiful! LOVE the COLORS!
Stunning love the colours and the design
I have been watching a lot of videos on acrylic pouring paintings. By far this is my absolute favorite!!
Beautiful! Thank you for sharing. I am learning so much😁
It looks fabulous with those lovely cells. Loved the purple orange & yellow for a change from the blue palettes which i see most people doing these days. It was lovely watching you create this beutiful painting. Thank you for sharing your recipe for your pours. Look forward to your next.
Gorgeous!!
Thank you for all of the excellent tips!
You seem like a good person to know. I need people like you in my life. Very cool. And to add, a real nice vine going on with people from all over the world. Regards from Valencia.
A Master Class.
Ditto Everyone.
My interest piqued by the science bits, (which I shall go and learn about, molecules and polymers yea....) I found joy in the knowledge I have just saved myself huge amounts of money I don’t have, trying to do something with only amoebic knowledge.
I best just leave it to the Professionals.
THANK YOU Ms DeLuca
Love your commentary and the valuable info and insights. Its great watching and listening to you!
Wunderschön, Danke Gina
Thank you! 🙏
Thank you so much for sharing your color research!
Wow, you’re very thorough when it comes to figuring out how to get results you like! I wish I had that kind of art work ethic. 😉 This is really really lovely! I’ll give your shop a visit. 😊
Gina thank you , it's adorable.
Great video! Beautiful painting and excellent demonstration with clear explanations. I really appreciate how much you share with all of us. Thank you!
💜💗🧡💛💛🧡💗💜
Wonderful. Thank you for sharing, this is a must try for me for sure. I am not sure I have the patience to move the paint that slowly, so will try something smaller to start.
so pretty. i love the color combo
Beautiful pour! Awesome tips, I didn't think those kind of cells were possible without silicone! Also really enjoyed the color chart explanation. Mad love.
Wow! Stunning. Nice work
Love,love, love this painting
I LOVE this technique! Thank you so much for doing videos of your process!
Thank you 🙏
Its living art...your work takes me to other realms. The atmosphere every piece creates morphs and becomes something new and it becomes many things at once. A magnificent place for the imagination to play. thank you for such masterpieces.
amazing... absolutely gorgeous! 😍
Beautiful work! Also thank you for such a thorough explanation of everything. Super helpful and enriching for the novice and expert artists alike.
Thank you 🙏
That was the most mesmerizing pour I've ever seen 😍
Beautiful!!!
Wow wow wow good design choices! Surprising.
I actually watch for the asmr effect so glad i can fast forward to the poring,tilting,and pop up of cells!🤗
