 Erica, brrr, brrr, brrr, brrr. Unfortunately my co-star is, oh he's over there. Oh, also you. My co-star and the director. Yeah. Anyways, Jeff's making new merch in his merch corner. And so yeah, so today I'm gonna show you guys how to do, brrr, brrr, brrr, brrr. You just need, did you hate, did you get red? Red? Once I get, well when it comes out and you do. I don't know what's happening, but there's the director, he was just hearty for the party. Brrr, brrr, brrr. I did, nothing popped up this time. Anyways, so today I'm gonna show you guys how to do a super easy ocean pour with three colors and using the swipe technique. Super simple, super simple. Also, if you hadn't noticed since it's making noises, I'm on the phone, Jeff's phone, which goes off every 17 seconds, so. If you don't answer a text. Yeah, if you don't answer a text it'll keep going off, but I'm gonna try to, nope. I'm gonna take it out of the, this. Y'all, I'm driving the struggle bus today. All right, I'm gonna have no fear. I went ahead and pre-mixed the resin so that we could just jump right in. So, the resin I'm using today is going to be just resin's diamond coat. You can get it on my website, artistilded.com, right here on my glove. You can see it. And I'm so prepared that I don't have my chat screen brought up on my laptop yet, but it'll be up in a second so I can see what Yuns are saying. All right then. So, let's get started. The first thing I did was mix my resin. Just resin's diamond coat is a two part. One to one equal parts of both A and B. And I mixed it for three minutes to make sure it was fully incorporated so they don't have any weak spots. You can use a whole bunch of different colors, but I'm just going to be using one blue, a white, and two whites. The reason I'm using two different whites is because one of my whites is a top sell and one of them is a B. There's nothing popped up. It just does it if you don't mark it. But I opened the mess anyways. You guys are just going to have to listen to that. Hopefully it won't be too many times. And also my apology. Actually, I can pull it up on my phone. I don't need a stinking computer. I need no stinking computer. Well, there it is. I turned my voice off of it. I'll be able to see after this ad runs. There you guys are. Hello, everyone. Cool. Everything looks good. All right, here we go. I used just resin because it just sells a little bit better than art coat. And art coat is my jam. Well, it sells better for oceans. Put it that way. I don't know why I'm making two cups because I'm only using one blue. I guess this will just show you guys how amazing the Bondi blue color is. And I'm going to do two little copies for my whites. And if I have anything left over, I'm going to try to do a dustpan or with just resin because now my theory is that because art coat takes so long to cure, it has a longer working time, which is amazing. But that's why it's given so much time to move and it won't stay, right? Right. So I'm going to be using Bondi blue tint from color obsession. I'm going to start with one drop in one of these. Oh my goodness, you guys, I'm so sorry. Can you hear that? Is it super obnoxious? Next time I'll know to mute that. But this video won't be that long. Our building's hosting a casino night to get a discount on rent and y'all, I will take a discount on rent. So one drop and this was four drops. Thank you to everybody who's watching came in to support us today. We are at a still death. We go live every day. Usually at six p.m. central, except for Tuesdays, it's two p.m. central. It's always art, but it's usually resin. Isn't that a beautiful color? And then this is my super translucent version of that. But this, see, it's the same color, I mean, same bottle, but it looks a little bit different. But I want to make that just a hair darker and I'm going to add, I just doubled, I doubled down. So I'm going to be using two different whites. That is because one of them is a base cell or a cell activator. If you're down with acrylic pour lingo, you're doing a little dance when Jeff's thing goes off. Cool. So we have our light ocean bit and our dark ocean bit. Now, I'm going to use some titanium white, which I expect to have more in very soon. You can also use color obsession, snow white, lures, angel white. Both of those will be good for this job. And then I'm also going to use color passions, base cell whites. And this is going to be what gives me the big, big old cells. You can see that it's thinner. This one is like got cloud around it. That's how I can always tell if there is a selling agent in my colorants. And this one sank right directly to the bottom. Both of these types of white have their place and do awesome things. You just have to know when and where to use them. You need color obsession, gold's coming stock. I have her on a rush order for her some. So hopefully soon. So while I want my ocean colors to be translucent or transparent, I want my whites to be opaque. So I can't see through them. Now my hands are, I have white paste on them because my jars of pigment are always crazy messy. Am I the only one? I can't be the only one. Jeff's a very tidy artist and I can't tell you how horribly messy I am as an artist. Oh well, I'm okay with it. All right, now we have our three colors. Well, actually I guess it is two colors but it's three different pigments. We have our Bondi blue with just a couple of drops, Bondi blue with 10 drops, our titanium white and our base cell white from color passion. I am using one of our boards for this. This is one of my alcohol ink panels, but it was already white and didn't have time to really prep a board. So we're using it. And I just sprayed Rust-Oleum metallic gold for my sand and didn't have time for the texture sand to dry. Okay, first thing's first. Going to decide where my ocean line is gonna be with some clear. Putting clear down first. Judging by how long this ocean takes to go, you only have to hear that like two more times. So I use clear for two reasons. One, if I don't like where this is, I can wipe it off and there's no color in it so it won't stain. Hey guys. And second reason is because I don't want my whites to turn blue from any manipulating of the paints. So I'm gonna take my one drop, two drops actually of colorant and just put it down just all kind of haphazardly. It doesn't have to be cute because we're gonna swipe through it anyways. So it's gonna change. I'm gonna take my 10 drop for the darker version, but most of it in the back because that's where my deep ocean is. And I like to incorporate a little bit of it into the lighter area as well. Again, doesn't have to be cute because we're gonna blend it and swipe through it anyways. So it's all gonna change right then. I'm just going to make sure that there's essentially just no dry spots within the water area. Sue asks, is it the resonant makes cells or a consistency of the pigments or heat gun? So all of those things matter when you're wanting cells. If you're wanting really big cells, best way to get them is to use a base tent or a cell activator. And for that, the only ones that I've really seen that really work since Stone Coat discontinued there is the color passion paste. Any color passion paste will act as a base cell activator, which is what's gonna give us a really big cells today. The type of heat you use and the type of heat gun attachment you use will make a difference because it's gonna concentrate the heat into one area or not. So that's gonna change how your resin moves and how the pigments react. And consistency of the pigments makes a difference too because the thicker a pigment is, the harder it is to push it around. It's really a case of having the right formula for the cells that you're going for. For me, right now, as of today, just resins, diamond coat, along with a thick paste white and either a heat gun or a swipe always works the best for me. Now, that's given my ambient temperature and all the other factors are just listed. I will do a video for you guys if you would like on the different heat sources, the different whites and the different resins, if you like, just let me know. Comment down below. Okay, so the way a base cell works or the color passion paste work is that whatever magic is in it that made it have that little halo around the white is gonna disperse taking with it whatever color is on top of it. So that's why I'm using two different kinds of whites because I want the white color passion cell activator to disperse and take my titanium white along with it. That'll make no sense as I do this for you guys. So to make this work, my color passion base cell has to be under my titanium white. So I'm gonna put it down first. You guys, I just recently got to teach Mike from Stone Coat how I do my oceans. It wasn't the style of ocean, it was my usual style. Super excited and flattered. Y'all don't let me forget that my base cell or color passion is on the left and I'm gonna keep my titanium on the right. So my top cell white going over my base cell white is in theory gonna give me all of the cells that I want on a bigger scale. Now, face tints like color passion don't really like to have too much heat. They'll make your cells grow till they can't keep their words are hard today. It'll just grow till it disconnects and is no longer a cell. So that's why I'm using swipes today. Also, a lot of people find it easier to use a swipe than to use heat. So, I'm gonna take my swiping paper. I'm gonna hold it horizontal to my piece. If you do it vertical like this, you're gonna scrape your pigment off and you're not gonna get, I did put it to the left. Which one's which? Titanium's left front, cool. Thank you so much, Titanium's. Sorry, I've gone over the number of times you guys are gonna have to hear that. So, I actually toured Australia with Jeff twice teaching classes how to swipe. So you guys are getting this full free. So, something that I tell my class every time is not to go too fast, because if you go fast, then your paper's gonna skip over the top like when you skip rocks and you don't wanna do that. Also, it's best for you to pull towards you than to pull away. I'm not gonna do that, but everybody should do that at home for many reasons. You're not gonna worry much about getting your sleeves and your resin if you're pulling towards you. And when you're done swiping, you won't have that desire to bring your paper back across your piece with a whole bunch of pigmented resin on it. So if you do swipe away from you, just drop the paper at the side and get a new one. Just get in the habit of that so you don't drip through. So, okay. Now I'm really confused. I'll do a roadside test if I need to. So I'm going to lay my swiping paper down and let it pick up some pigment and take my time swiping it back because I want it to pick up and redistribute the white as we go. If you go too fast, like I said before, it's just gonna skip and you're not gonna get the look that you want. Just trust me on that. And if you want, you can get jazzy with it and put little movement. Now, as I get further back, it's gonna thin out because I'm running out of the white. So I'm just going to go kind of faster and let it skip because that'll be more realistic. You can see that there's cells already popping up. Okay, so we're gonna just do that all the way down the piece. Just remember to take your time. And it's okay if it's pulling pigment at different rates. See how it's thinner here than it is here and even over here. That's perfectly fine. All right, for real. I'm gonna have two more times to hear the jig. I'm gonna get you guys closer in for the next one. How about that? It's gonna be the last one. Okay. So I'm letting it pick up at least like a finger's width of pigment. Taking my time, taking my time. It's all right if you swipe through the most recent swipe you've got there. Perfectly fine. We can swipe through those. Welcome Rhonda Jackson. So I'm gonna just quick swipe through this. It would have been way more something. I guess cohesive if I would have done one big piece of paper but I wanted to show you guys the differences. But that's okay because you can go over it as many times as you like. Well, I guess until you run out of resin. That will be your major hindrance. So on my website, artistilldeath.com, you can get all of these pigments and the board and the swiping paper. You can get it all. Now this will not work the same if you put the colors backwards and put titanium in front of, I'm just tilting it a little bit to give it a little bit of motion in the ocean as it were. If you do the titanium on top of the color passion, it'll work. If you do it the other way around and color passion is on top, it will not work. It needs to have the other color on top of it so that it will disperse and do its magic. I could just move this around. Why don't you guys just to get the idea of how beautiful these cells can be. Look at that, it looks like the bottom of a pool. Thank you, Denise. So I'm gonna do what I call a roadside test real quick. Which blue I've got, where? You just need to swipe one color over it. Okay, pretty sure. Am I right that the one on this side is the base and the one on this side is the titanium. What was the question about color and sagine? This one is the base cell. As you can see, it gave me cells and the other one did not. This is what I call roadside. LRB, I do not have this gold on my website because it is a spray paint and I'm scared to have spray paints actually. All right, so what I'm gonna do is I'm going to do another swipe over but with a full sheet of paper so that I have a conducive flow. My white's back in proper order. The color passion or base cell is in front so that I'm swiping the weight over. Rhonda, I go live pretty much every day. Sometimes it's a posted video but I try to post, I do my best to post every day. All right, so I'm gonna get a big sheet of my butcher paper. Sounds expensive, I know. I'm gonna take my shiny side, sweet. All right, let's re-swipe this. Give myself some room. Looks like I'll have enough resin left to do a dustpan since I already have a lot of the white distributed back. I'm going a little bit faster than I normally would. All right, it doesn't look like much. Give me a second, here we go. I'm going to back this a bit by adding some heat and tilting it so that's gonna create some movement and I'll stretch out our styles a bit. Also, since I'm using a concentrator tool, it's giving it these lap lines, these wavy bits because real oceans relax. The more it's gonna pull up the cells. Since I have two layers of cells, because I re-swiped it, you can see all the different cells that are under it from the first layer. So they're kind of like interlocked lacing. No worries Denise, no worries at all. So the longer it sits and the bigger the pieces for your resin to stretch and grow to, the bigger your cells can grow. I have a piece in my home that has quarter-sized cells and I love it. I'm just gonna edge up this shoreline with a thick line of white where it thinned out. Take this piece to the dust-free zone and we'll do a dustpan transfer. A dustpan with acrylics and it turned out blub blub blub blub. And I was like, I don't wanna do that with resin. And it turned out un-okay. And I'm pretty sure it's because the resin takes so long. Now I'm thinking where I do it with a resin that cures in half the time, because it has half the working time, right? So that's what I'm about to attempt. I'm using these because I grabbed them first. I'm gonna use just resin and tense copper and breakfast. See, I know, but that's what we're gonna do. Well, thank you. Where's my pipe button? Would have been cool if in that moment, your phone went off. Yep. Now, this resin is thinner than the Stoneco resin. So it may move a lot anyways, but we're not gonna care. We're just gonna do the thing. We don't have a lot of resin. So we're gonna have to make it work with not a lot. Really appreciate that gale. Everything that comes into the channel is a super huge help. So this is intense copper by just resin. It is a metallic. Buzzing. Mark is red. Got it. That means somebody else takes it. Yeah, but I marked it as red, so you won't hear that one again. So, super awesome, right? You didn't have resin on it. Might have. No, it's good. That was from the first text that you got. You have two texts, but I muted one of them. People at home, sorry. And then this is breakfast at Tiffany's. I prefer to use paste over powders or acrylics or anything else because the color is so much more vibrant, in my opinion, and they are true to the color that they are in the jar. And I don't have to worry about them fading when I use a lot of heat. Did just break my stick. That's fine. I've got two sides. Hey, Clara. I know, gale, I love that color too. Because this resin has a shorter working time, 30 seconds to get up on it. I'm gonna have to go a little bit quick. This is a dustpan Jeff made for me. If you wanna know how to do this, make one of your own, then comment down below this video. I'm just gonna make a video about it. Oh, Jeff's gonna make a video anyway. So I'm gonna start coloring colors. I'm gonna try to put white in between each one because if the breakfast and the copper mix together, it's probably gonna make a gross color. But I'm running out of white, so yellow. Hey Evelyn. G-U-Dee. Sorry I haven't seen everybody that's come in. Best I can tell with these types of pours is the simpler, the better. Less colors, equals less mess. But I don't use a lot of color anyways. I try to stick to four or less than any given four. Really? Can I start already? That's rude. It's already broken the seal. Probably no turning back now. All right, this'll probably get us the length of the... Hey Shelly, one second and I'll scroll back and see your question. All right, here we go. Whether it looks the cutest or not isn't really a concern to me. I just wanna know if it stays like acrylics do. And if so, I'm gonna do a big one with this resin. What would you do different? I'm using the leftover just resin because it takes less time to cure. So if my theory is right, that that's the issue. It's why it doesn't work, then this should be awesome. Great. So I'm gonna put this in the oven at 375. JK, don't do that. Please don't bake your resin. And follow me for more pro tips. So, it's looking good right now. It's not moving a lot, so I have hope. I'm gonna head with just a little bit of heat. I was gonna say, don't you suck for a little bit of heat? Like just a hair though. I wouldn't do a heat gun only because it's got a lot of blow. So here's how we're gonna leave it for the night. Look how fun little cells those are in the middle. You can see here that I used some of the base cell right here where those little bubbles are coming up through the teal. And you can tell that it's in this bit over here because it's kind of cloudy. There's some cells. Tail-tail signs. It's cute. I love it. If it works, I'm gonna do a bigger one. I'm gonna take it to Desperate here. Hey, what do you think? I call that piece going to the chapel. You know why. I don't know if I told you guys. I'm kind of keeping it a secret. But Jeff and I are engaged. What? I know, I know, I know. I just wanna make a big to-do about it. But we're all family here. So now you guys know. Don't wanna throw that away, don't wanna throw that away. So, I know. Okay, so since I never told you guys that I'm engaged, we are, and the wedding's gonna be in May. And so excited. Jenny, thank you so much. I appreciate that more than you know. More than I can say. You know the words. Oh, I forgot to show you. The this that Jeff did, ooh, all will be available the next fire sale. And the this that Jeff did might be available the next fire sale because I kind of like it. No? No. Okay, come here boobos. Come up for your cameo. Come here, baby. You big boy, I know it. I know, he's the reason why you guys came to say hi. He said the boobos. Anyways, you guys, thank you. Oh, jelly. Let me look back and see your question before I say the good burrs. Jelly. I was swiped and bit to a K in the same results. Was that the question? Cause, awesome. What, listen, here on my channel, I'm only here to show you guys what works for me and hopefully it will work for y'all. But if you have your own way of doing stuff and it works, dude, by all means, do what works. Okay. Resin has got so many different factors that makes it work and not work that, oh, here's your question. What one doesn't give cells? My J.R. titanium white cells like Erica's just did, so why not just use that one on its own? I would imagine that you're using a different resin that I usually use. Are you using Shelly art coat or are you using a different one? Cause I'm willing to bet that you are not using a different art coat, which is why there's the difference. Is that the question? I'm scrolling back, so sorry that it looks kind of crazy. Okay, so why the two white? Okay, so you're using diamond coat. Diamond coat cells, super awesome. So the reason why I did two different whites is because I wanted the larger cells, which is given by the color passion base. And I had to use the other white because it needs to have something over the base out to work. And I wanted white waves, so I had to use white. The other way I could have gone is to use like an aqua color and the titanium white to go over the aqua color, but the base tents are opaque and I wanted a translucent ocean. So to do that, I had to use two whites. You absolutely can just use titanium, 100%. Let me show you the cells I'm talking about. If you guys have been following my channel for a while, you've seen this piece because I love it. So this is a four inch round. I have no idea what numbers that is in metric system. But if you see next to my finger, my hand, these cells are massive. And that is because I used a base cell. Titanium white will not grow to cells this size. It doesn't disperse like that. So you have to have a semi-spar. So you have to have something that makes bigger cells. And that is gonna be a base cell or color passion paste. Any color passion paste is essentially a base cell. I have like 60 colors and color passion. So there's a color for every condition need. Conditions sound better, but need is essentially the word I was going for. Okay guys, thank you so much for seeing what I'm up to today. I hope you learned something or were entertained or enlightened in some way, maybe. We'll be back, Minyana, to do another video for you guys. If you have requests for what you would like us to try, be it a technique or product or whatever, comment down below. It really helps to have engagement with the channel. And we'd like to hear from you guys. If you want anything that I use today, you can find it on our website, artistyleleft.com, two T's, two L's. And I hope you guys have an awesome evening. Be kind to one another. You never know what someone's going through. And always remember, we do the test. So you don't have to. That probably tripped a whole bunch of people. Oh, ooh, ooh also. You forgot the ooh. I know, but I was like zooming in. Maybe look a little crazy. I didn't, I had nothing to do with your crazy. Anyways, you guys, you're awesome. And we'll see you tomorrow. Bye. I said bye.
