Welcome back! In this full tutorial, I will walk you through the products and process used in creating the Shelee Blooms, and will demonstrating my ‘bloomin’ swipe’ technique to achieve the cells and lacing without blowing! Many folks struggle with this part and this is a fool-proof way to achieve stunning results. If you haven’t seen Shelee’s work or taken her course, you can check out both at www.sheleeart.com.au I would strongly encourage taking her course; it is worth it! I took her course and am part of her Affiliate Program, and If you use the discount code “SHELEEART15RISENSUN” you will get 15% off the course price!! The ingredients I use are similar, though not identical to those in her course. I am using house paint, in a satin white finish, for the “pillow”. The brand is noted in the video. The pouring medium I use is 3 pars ultra-deep untinted paint base, mixed with 1 part water-based polyurethane. The brands I use are also noted in the video. The “cell activator” as noted in the. video is made up of: 15 mls - Glue All 15 mls - Amsterdam (standard series) titanium white, (though you can use other Amsterdam colors successfully 30 mls - Floetrol by Flood (US version) 2.5 mls - Minwax Pre-stain Wood Conditioner (oil based) The paints I use for the puddles are mostly Amsterdam acrylics, transparent and semi-transparent colors. These are mixed 5 parts pouring medium to 1 part paint. Rather than water, I use various acrylic inks to achieve desired consistency. This also contributes to the vibrancy of the colors.
