- Here I fill the canvas with black paint, pour some blue paints in a way to create a bottom and then blow on the paint.

That is exceptional. I one tried something similar using red, yellow and orange on a black background to make flames. After seeing this, I'm inspired to make another much larger one. Thanks for the series.
My pleasure Deb! :)
What a lovely painting. It looks like a wall of blue flames.
If this was repeated using red and orange it would be a great wall of blazing flames.
I love your work.
Thank you for sharing your talents.
Finally took the plunge yesterday and bought a bunch of acrylics, I've been wanting to do some pours for some time now. Came across your channel yesterday afternoon when I was looking for tips on how to mix and whatnot and I am floored by your videos. Extremely helpful for this first-time painter.
Thanks for the extremely helpful videos, and keep up the fantastic work!
That thicker black is so glossy I thought the reflected ceiling & water nozzle were part of the painting and I thought: "Wow! She is *really* mixing it up this time!" 😎 I would have been cool it really had been, but I'm liking how it turned out. I haven't been a big fan of the straw-action in the past, but now I'm thinking of giving it a whirl. 😍 Can't wait to see more! 💗
I'm so glad I stumbled onto your channel.
I see dancing ladies across the top of the blue and it's gorgeous! Another one I'm going to take inspiration from for my students!
Thank you for posting this Simple series. I'm always looking out for lessons that can be completed in one class period and everyone succeeds with!
Glad you enjoy and are helping others with my ideas!
Looks like a Winter Forest 😍
Mely, It is GORGEOUS! LOVE THE COLORS!😁❤❤❤

You are the canvas tilting boss! I would LOVE to see you do one like this in rich green first colors. LOVED the silver embedded in the black. I haven't seen that effect anywhere.

Very inspiring, and one of my faves, thanks for sharing!
That is awesome!
Beautiful! Learning so much from you!

Looks like a waterfall or something. Love it.

Thanks Sherry!
Love it! It looks like fire. Maybe try it with reds oranges and yellows?
Looks awesome !! It does look like a forest to me !
You're the only one who didn't say blue flames! We must have a similar eye :)
Love it! You’re a genius!
Love the flames, The blues are awesome. Another great one.
Thanks Nancy :)
Wow! It looks like icicles at night!
Beautiful Blue Flames 💙
Fantastic! What a great technique!
Thank you!
Love it, it's like blue fire! And when you said you wanted to tilt, I yelled "nooooo"! lolol
Stefanie Goddyn haha I know! Good thing i left it like that
love it.
I really like that, blue flames
Miranda Anderson thank you!
Your work is so amazing. And you make it look so simple. Makes me crazy that I can’t do it like that :-)
Thats gorgeous! Well done!
Thank you!
beautiful!!!!
I love this! I want to give it a try soon!
Don't wait! Do it! :)
Bravo 👏👏l'artiste magnifique 😍🌹
Merci Myriam!
Blue Flames is perfect !!!
Looks cool at the end. I reeeeally loved it at 3:30. 😍
Thank you! :)
beautiful
I wasn't too sure about all the blowing, but it turned out great! Gotta take risks if ya wanna grow.
ChefMimsy exactly what I was thinking :)
Fabulous painting! I sure wish that we could see it at the end hung on a wall instead of laying on top of the spilled paint.
Turned out awesome!! I have done a few paintings using an air gun to move my colors around and very happy with the results. I prefer this method if done the right way. Oh by the way, you might want to use a hair dryer unless your looking for a work out of your lungs! Hahaha :)
Alex Hartmann haha thanks! And for the blow dryer, it's not precise and since this was a small one I would have ruined it ;) but it would work on a bigger canvas and with a different idea in mind.
I love this so much I can't wait to try this at home I love the blue flame to it what if u did the same thing but with rainbow that way u would have a rainbowflame!!! OMG that's my nickname for everything 😂 love u and the painting
Shawna salisbury hahaha that's a good idea! I might just try it out :)
MelyD.artist that would be so cool pls do
J'ai adoré très bon travail artiste
Merci!
Perhaps if you had poured off some of the black more silver would be present, but you would have lost some of the smoky effects of blowing. I like the end result as it is.
Thanks Monica!
Very I call it "Blue Fire" :-)
WOW 4 vids... A Fourilogy!!! I love how it turned out👍I gotta get a t-shirt! Have any that say "I can hear my son eating chips"?!😂
Manolo Lopez thanks! And nope haha! but I have a few ideas for some other ones :)
Blue fire
Hey there, love what you do. All your pieces come out so rad. Ive been experimenting with the whole paint pouring technique and keep finding that the finished product loses its luster and I'm not sure if its the paint I'm using the mixing ratio I'm using..I'm not sure I just know your peices always keep the glossy prettyness so any suggestions you may have would be awesome. Thanks for all the videos thus far! I look forward to the next!!
Hey Ann, my paintings in the videos are wet so that's why they look glossy. When the paint dries it turns matte and this is normal. That's why I tell people at the end that they can check out the dried result on my social media. I give it a varnish which brings out the colors and gives a little shine but it's nothing like what wet paint looks like. Hope this helps a bit!
My t-shirt comes in 3 days!! I went with classic black😋. This shirt should help me fight off all the ladies that hit on me- "Be strong and back away"! I can't just turn allllll this off *hands directing you to my body*.😏
Manolo Lopez HOLY FUCK I love you. HAHAHAHA
MelyD, this turned out very pretty. I'm glad it didn't move much. Do you think that's because your black was thicker? When did you pour the silver? I watched the video a few times and didn't see it.
I added the silver into the black directly. I believe it stayed in place because of the Craftsmart white that I used. It's so thick. It dried exactly like in the video and with a bit of thickness to it instead of smoothing out like my other paintings. Lesson learned. That paint is not good for fluid painting but aids in this type of style where you don't want the paint to move at all after you are done.
MelyD.artist Jennifer Cunningham
Ooooo! Good question, Jennifer! If MelyD hadn't spelled that out, I probably wouldn't have figured that out (I'm a little slow after binging on pouring vids all night 😩) Thanks for the tip! 😎
I got so into these 4 videos I forgot to ring your. I apologize. Ive really been mesmerized. You move so fast and do so many really eye popping pictures. I have to ask where you are from. I cant find sone if the paints. When we wintered in Ariz. I went to Aarons.Our friend is a great oil painter so I usually went there because his studio was close by. I love your work. Ive been wanting to try experimenting with my oils. Keep going girl.
carol johnson oh my I just saw this and I use acrylic paint not oils. I buy them at Michaels and DeSerre :)
Beautiful! I'd love to get started with pouring, do you have any tips?
em k thanks! I suggest googling it and you'll see what comes up! There is so much info out there this style of painting seems to be getting very popular. You could type key words in YT also :)
Looks like blue flame. Love it! Where do we get the t-shirts?
Deb Lily thanks Deb! The link should be in the description no?
Oops! Didn't see the "Show More." Thanks.
Why are you mixing paints? Is it for color or consistency? Love your paintings!
Color, to have different tones
Mely, many thanks for sharing your experiments. Could you please give a sense of your ratios for-- paint:pouring medium: water? If you only use a very small amount of pouring medium, I assume you use a fair amount of water.
ua-cam.com/video/939FmZ-ShYM/v-deo.html
Okay, thanks again. Helpful.
Kinda late to the party lol. I have a question. Would you be able to add clear epoxy resin on top to seal it in better? What are your thoughts? Thanks!
Sparkle Spectrum Crafts yes absolutely that is a great and beautiful way of finishing it!
Will you pour paint a pumpkin for fall? I'm trying to get this rolling!
Charley Jo Landers Amici are you asking to pour paint on a pumkin? I'm afraid I wouldn't know how to gp about it since its not flat! :)
MelyD.artist It can be on a flat pumpkin, too!
I would love to buy one of these from you in your shop. Do you take custom orders?
Ash Ley just saw this Ash! Email me for commissions no problem :)
Love to know if there is a Simple is best no.6 please? Anne. UK
if you have an air brush, it might be easier for you instead of blowing on your painting and possibly getting saliva on it
Hello, I do not quite understand English. Tell me please what paints and diluents you use them?
Мирослав Сенька acrylic paint, pouring medium and water
Did you add silicone to any of the paints?
Nope
How long does it take one of your paintings to dry!?
Caden Vanburen depends on size, paint quantity and temperature. It can range between 12h and 3 days lol this one was quick like 12h
Hey. How you make it so reflective shiny??.MelyD.artist. ..
wet paint is always shiny ;)
Is there any way to have the paint dry glossy
LINXDJG you can add gloss medium to your paint
How much pouring medium do u add to each?
A few drops I'd say. I don't measure
shall we hAng it on wall or....
Looks like blue flames to me, how dramatic would it be done with red orange and yellow on the black background... ;-)
Barry Radburn it would and that's an excellent idea :)
So...do you ever blow spit that accumulates in the straw onto your painting?... Lol. That drives me nuts!
hahaha I have at first a long time ago but learned to take a sec and blow some accumulated spit beside as to not get some in the painting lol
Did you sell this piece?
Nope but I haven't completed it yet. I will probably give a resin coating before posting the final result. Are you interested?
MelyD.artist possibly, depending on my finances at the time. I just love learning and watching you work!
Dianna Steiger it should be posted within the next few days on my social media and thank you so much!
I can,t understand how the black color don,t welt whit blues and white
I don't understand what you are saying
