Oh, Greg said first. What's up, Greg? And a quick draw McGraw. Okay, we did that. Alright. So, we'll put on it and then we'll pull up. So, for those of you who don't know from my channel, this is Erica. Happy Erica. Okay. We're going to be giving you a couple things today. I know. She's going to teach me how to not fail at acrylic pours. And also, we're going to do a resin pour. Yeah. Because she's a master of that. Sometimes. Sometimes it works out. Sometimes you have to just scrape it off and start over. But, it's going to be exciting. We're both filming live for each other's channels. So, we'll both be answering questions. She's got her questions up. I've got my questions up. Oh, look at that. Oh my gosh. Hey guys. Look at that. The art. Isn't that great? I know, right? Oh my gosh. This is so exciting. I know. Everybody's like, I love art. I just, okay. So, just so you guys know, I'm literally just up and drove to Texas. That happened. Out of, like, the blue. And then I called Erica and I was like, So, hey, by the way, I'll be in Texas tomorrow. My name's Ralph. Yeah, I'm Ralph. So, we decided to do this. So, hey you. Hey y'all. I know. And yee-haw.  Right? Alright. So, what do you want to start with? Sheila, I think of your package. It's right over there. Those paints are amazing. And we'll open them and look at them for the present card. So, we're both going to be answering our respective feeds. A lot of you guys know the answers to what I'm going to say. So, you can answer for each other in the feed if I don't miss it. There you go. Thanks, Kate. Alright. I usually put paint on after I pour my paint in the cup. Teach me. You don't really, you know, before and then. Okay. So, I brought my pre-mixed paints with me. We were just kind of joking because I brought more art supplies than I brought clothes or toothpaste. So, we're each going to do, let's each do a cup. You know what we can do? Like a dual pour. I pour half and you pour half. If you want. I'm sold. Okay. But let's start with this little, we're going to do a little sample on this little one. Okay. So, you get the long storage or pick whatever colors you want. I'm going to primary because that's what I miss the least. And these are all pre-mixed. So, go for a canvas this size. You're going to want, I do about half of this cup as a nine ounce cup. So, this is a light blue. You said primary. White. Blue. Yeah. You want to try the tree ring? Okay. I'll give you a tree ring because... But I always mess them up. Oh, thank you. Okay. I know. If you was here, that would be great. But I'll be staying here tomorrow. So, I'm really bad at these kind of pours. So, you're going to have to like, for real, tell me what it looks like. Okay. Do you want to shake them? Not really. Shaked. Okay. So, depending on how much, how many colors you want to use, because realize you need to fill half. So, if you're going to use, say, like three or four colors, you kind of just base it off of that. And so, this is a good way for you to see how liquidy they are. Right. But as you can see, they can see that, but it sits on top. See if I can mix. It doesn't. Okay. Yeah. Yeah, so, really, how much you pour in here depends on how much of whatever color you want. Now, I watched people before that, like, drop their paints in from, like, a second-story building. Does that make a difference? People do that. That can help create more bubbles. Therefore, more cells. That looks so good already. I'm like, no. Okay. Well, I will tell you, if you pour, like, two drops like that, you'll be there for whatever. Okay. Okay. Go for it. Okay. I'm just nervous. Okay. Don't be. Okay. And then you can also always go back to a color. You're not married to any amount of anything. Is it better to have just put it all in at one time or to, like, layer different colors? I kind of tend to put it all in at one time. You can choose what the tree would pour. You don't want as many cells. That's true. So, I generally, you can definitely want to pour from two to two stores high. You may pour a little slower than that. But yeah, I'm just going to go for it. You know? Go for it. Guys, by the way, I have a little baby this year. It was one of the things that I bought today right now. No, I had another baby this year. Along with that other awesome looks, I forgot what mine said. Gym hair don't hair. Yeah. That's my daily life is gym hair. Don't hair. Judy said not to speak up because... A little bit louder? Yeah. A little bit louder. Okay. Hey, Lisa. Can everyone hear me on my, on my channel? My feet? Let me know. But should I add gold to them? I'm scared. Then it's what you want. Do you want to add a rainbow? I don't know. A rainbow with gold can't be horrible. Just a little bit. Okay. Just a little bit. Probably too much. No, you're good. Okay. Okay. So, you're going to want a little bit more. So, just pick one. I feel like a yellow is taking over. It looks like that, but you never know once you start pouring it up. You add a little bit more weight on top and then we'll go ahead and pour it. So, people are asking what the mix is. Okay. Yes. Good question. So, in here is approximately two, like five parts flow trawl, three parts paint, and two parts water. So, you don't add any silicone? No. No silicone? No other coconut oil? No. I'm ready for you. I've gotten my cells down to the point, or my mixture down to the point where I don't need to do that to get cells. I've got like lots of cells that it is. And then you can look at the cups and kind of tell. So, now that's a good point to put on your blood. It always looks better in the cup in my world than it does on the canvas. Okay. And then I'm going to show you. I'm going to start this when you're going to finish it. So, you take it and you're going to very slowly pull right in the center. I like to go in a little bit of a circle pattern like that. See that? Yeah. Okay. You do that a lot slower than I've seen people do it. Does it matter? Well, you can tell. I mean, by the rings there, the faster you do it, the less rings you'll get. So, to get the more defined rings. Yeah, you want them. There you go. It looks like that. And you can even, like, kind of move it around a little bit because obviously you don't want paint on this side. Maybe go a little bit that way. It's all yellow. But it won't be. Take it. Don't pour it all out. It's all good and loud and clear. Okay. It looks fun in here. It's a party in a cup. Okay. Cool. Let's, um... So, you can either, like, kind of leave that and let it, like, do its thing. I would maybe tilt it a little bit just to get your corners covered. And then it's really up to you. I also kind of tend to like the off-center. Right. That part. This looks so much better than anything I've ever done with acrylic. It's all in the mixture. That's what I hear. And then I try to mixture in it. There you go.  Like a side. Yeah. And it's going to keep moving. I mean, I'm assuming this table's fairly visible. Yeah. As long as we do not, like, run up on the movement of the foot pad down there. Cool. Okay. I need to do this on a 26 by 30. Okay. So, I'm going to give y'all some math real quick. So, just, if you're really bad at math, I'm sorry. And maybe you take a pencil. Right? Right. I would have to take that. So, basically for every square, wait, I'm wrong. For an 8 by 10, I do five ounces of paint, which means basically for every 16 square inches, I do one ounce of paint. It's, I think, the calculation that I came up to. So, like, for a 16 by 20, if I think about 20 ounces of paint. So, yeah, if you just do for every 16 square inches, one ounce of paint is basically how much I do. So, I hope that makes sense. And if I had a calculator, I would calculate how much we need for a 26 by 30, but I don't have a calculator right now. There you go. I just had to show the people that I didn't mess up an acrylic pour. Yeah. Because they know my struggle. I didn't mess it up. Then again, it's not into the thing yet. So, I'm going to do a drop. Oh my goodness. This is so fun. Do we need another rack? Well, do we need one for the resin? Or what are we doing here? We're going to do, oh, the half and half one, right? Yeah. So, let's just take this canvas on. Here, again, that should be good. Okay. So, I've got nine colors here. This is a 12 by 24 canvas. Do you want to clean up or do you want to use only one? I don't mind you. I don't have a clean cup. Okay. So, I have purples and blues in here and black. So, if you want to maybe do a lighter side or whatever, you can really do anything and it will look awesome. I'm sure. Do not count 100% on that. Challenge accepted. I'm still good at messing stuff up. Yeah. It's a talent that I have. So, for this, I would fill it actually more about three quarters full. I actually need to put a little bit more in there. So, fill it up about three quarters full. I know math is maybe not the funnest thing in the world, but once you all get used to it, then you'll be able to just do it by sight. You won't really have to sit there and figure it out. When you're doing the larger canvases though, you really do want to do a little bit of math. Otherwise, you guarantee all of that with not enough paint in there every time. Do you find that the metallics react different than the not metallics? Absolutely. And it really depends on the brand. It depends on just the color even. Like silver, I noticed, totally takes over. Whereas gold doesn't. And gold, it really depends on also where you put it in the cup. Sometimes gold completely hides. It disappears, right? And then I have the Deco Arts Metallics, the antique bronze. That one takes over every single time. I have to be very careful with that one. It's dangerous. That's really interesting because I find in resin pours that gold usually takes over. Oh, okay. Yeah. It depends on where you put it in the cup as well. I don't know how dominating you want it to be. If you put it in the middle of the cup, it's going to kind of just peek through of it. That looks better than any pour I've ever done. And I'm scared to go because it's not going to turn out that way. Okay, so since we're doing two cups here, what we can do is we can either flip it or we can do two treatment pours. Which do you prefer? Which looks nicer in the end? Another tough question. Yeah. You know what, let's treatment pour this because that's just my favorite. So I'm going to do yours about there. I'm going to do mine about here. So pour it in a little there. Yours is going out way smoother than mine is. I can tell that you do this quite often. I have done this a couple of times before.  It's your channel. Okay. Yours looks so good. But our colors are going to go really well together. So can you all think about that? We're going to go ahead and move this around. And we're giving, you know the option here to add more paint as needed. But one thing I like to do when I'm doing two separate color palettes a bit, because I do these with my daughter. And we'll each pick our own colors. Oh, one thing I should mention is whatever side I like the best is generally the side I will go towards first. So like I really like this side. I'm going to go towards that. Because that's going to end up being the most stretched out. Right. So we have that so far. Let's go this way. Hope everyone can see that. Now we have the issue. If we stretch it much more that way to cover the whole thing, we're going to run out of paint. And we're going to end up stretching it a lot. So let's go ahead and take the rest. Now this is your side and that's my side. So we're going to cross over here and go ahead and fill in some over here with like some ribbon. Oh, there's your yellow. Say where did it go? Cool. It looks like that was a totally different cup. It did this, actually. But that's okay. Nobody's on it. There will be playback. And I'll get called on it. She is a pro. So go ahead and we're going to bring it back a little bit this way. Y'all have already tried to get this by myself. I think it's going to look like the outside of this bottle. So there you go. I think that's fine, you know. I'm going to do one thing. Go for it. This one cart doesn't quite like some groove. Do you want the yellow? I'm going to just put one little like straight through. I think I'm going to be quick. Be quick right when you got to that. Right. Do you want a torch or do... Oh, you totally can. I didn't bring my torch. Mainly because my roommate's watching this. But he got the idea to super glue it open. Super glue it open so that you don't have to click the little thing. You have to do it anyway. So yeah. Well, I'm sure he broke it. I had a torch. But I will say with three green pores specifically I generally don't torch it because that will bring up extra cells. But we already got a lot of cells in here. Yeah. So pull it into I don't know if the gloves straight. I was just mainly asking for you're not going to have the issues like in resin where you get the air bubbles and you worry about it. The air bubbles will go away by themselves. Literally like the only reason to torch you're doing a torch is to have great cells. Personally, I don't... I'm not a fan of like cells overtaking a piece. Like in my head it gets too busy. Yeah. Yeah, I understand. So that was really good. Yeah, there we go. Ta-da! I think your side looks amazing. And mine looks like I knew I shouldn't have used that much yellow. I knew I shouldn't have used that much yellow. It's exciting. See? I gotta say that's my best something. Cool. Me and words. We don't get along some days. This is a perfect learning opportunity real quick for my guys. Because one of my commonest questions is how do I get my leftover paint? So I'm going to show you. Watch this another. I'll put one on top of the other. And then I leave it. That's what I do. Then I'll come back in like a week or two and I'll reuse this paint. That's literally all I do. That's bananas! Yeah, so if just leaving it like this for weeks or even a month or two we'll be totally fine. It won't dry out. It won't get whatever. And that's like even with it and everything it does that. Yeah, it's totally fine. So I just keep doing that. The next pour I do I'll have another cup. So I'll take this one after strained and I'll put the next cup on top. And leave it. I just keep doing that until I have a couple of enough paints in it to do a pour. So when I was a bartender we would call it like bar mat shots. If someone was like, I want a shot but I don't know what. So I'd pick up the bar mat that I've been pouring shots in and it was like overflowing with everything. And I'm like, here you go. So that's kind of like, wait, this is going to be it's going to be like a suicide. Yeah, you never know what it is. I actually answered that earlier. But that's okay. Parts flow trawl, three parts paint, and two parts water. And there you have it. Still missed that. I can put it in the description later. Obviously, I know. It's still live. And then you just log in and edit. Yeah, you just edit it as normal. Okay. Did, but that's fine. I'm going to switch anyways. It's just a factor of life with this kind of artwork. Yeah. What colors do you want to do on your? Moon. Okay. My favorite to do are really like blues that kind of like turquoisey teals and then bronzes and goldies and stuff like that. I think that's my favorite. That's really like purple's moon. Those together. Gotcha. Which one? I don't know what sticks to the teal. It's like a teal. And here are the infamous stick. Yes. Yes. So you can see them in person, guys. I don't think I have a bronze. But here's a gold teal. It's good. Oh my gosh, David is watching. David, I totally just told on you for breaking my torch. Did you fix it? You got read it out, didn't you? Yeah. You totally got read it out. My roommate's watching. Okay. Oh, this is so exciting. All right. We're going to... Now we're going to do some resin. So I've got a gold teal. This color is this color. Okay. Purple and white. Okay. Do you want to do what? I need a party for the party. They're talking about mixing for a for the course and they're going to end up asking me questions. Okay. Yeah, guys, if you have any questions you can certainly ask me.  It's her favorite thing. It is. I can answer all of them. Actually, just calling. That's called serving. Oh, good. David got me a new one. Okay. We're going to... Google Plus. Oh, like Google Plus? Google Plus is something you have to have for like everything now. Like you have Google Plus accounts since you're on YouTube. Oh, yeah, absolutely. I have like 10 Google Plus. I just don't even actually like... I mean... I know they're trying to kind of make it like Facebook, but it's not really a thing. It's not really a thing. So, hi, Dad. Your dad's on there? Hi, Dad. He's not favorite. All right, so we prepped this canvas before the video. You guys know my process. Okay, Shammy and his defense though, he also prepped this. He bought me the torch in the first place, but he just bought me a new one. Anyway, okay, good. Let's do some resin. Hardener. I wish I could tell you like numbers, but I wing it. At this point... It's one-to-one, right? Yeah, so for the guys on my channel who didn't see me mix the resin before, this is art resin. It is one-to-one ratio, so that's pretty simple. However much you're mixing up, it's just one-to-one. Hardener and resin. So... We're just going to go with like a little over 8 ounces. You may just have to reload your screen's frozen, but I don't think it matters. I think your speed's still live. Oh, there it goes. Like your text speed is still going. Oh, YouTube stopped. It says... Say okay. It said open up again. Yeah. Live. Now go to the... this thing again. Will that start a new one? Resume. Okay. No? Start it out. Sorry guys. Oh, someone just admitted this started. Sorry guys, it just froze. Yes, we're right back. Hey Pamela. Welcome. I hope you guys are like answering all the questions of all the people. John, there's no troopers. Okay. I know. And I invited the company at the end, but they're going to be here later. The ATD after dark. Show me now. Okay. We're making good time. Artie will pour down. MKB is smart. She's using both strings. So I went down for a second, but she didn't lose a beat. Oh, she's watching both. How do you watch both? You just used two gems. Oh, that makes sense. Blonde. I just had an extreme amount of coffee today. Did not. I take a nap. Like in a dope. I'm not an adult. Okay. Still in the revenue? Yeah. You're going to really, really thoroughly mix it for several minutes. You have to scrape the sides, the bottom and everything because if it doesn't mix properly, it will harden and cure properly and that sucks.   And then the next day you're like, Not so much. Still sticky. So yeah, you just want to make sure your ratio is correct so that you have the 50-50 and that you mix it super, super well. Very important with the written. And I will probably do a video on that later. It's on my list guide. I keep it to-do list too. That whiteboard over there is like, Ideas. Oh, I don't know if that's working. I can't remember the last time I read it.  Mine looks not at all like this which is why you only see my hand. I was just in this area. You only see straight down because my yeah, it's like a tornado hit. I I want to figure out how to do camera in camera so I can do like this angle and then the drink. That kind of programming. I don't even know what it would take. Unnailed it. E-science. This is true. Very true. And anytime I make up a word, they're like, E-science that's not a real thing. So, do we have our measurement mixed up? Yes. Usually, our resin doesn't have this little bubble that like, fly out, but of course. So, I don't know how many other colors you want to use, but I don't really think it's the same for I think it's a pretty good name. But is this one? What was it? Like a pearl? It's the other way. So, this is a powder. It's a pigment powder and you mix it in resin it turns into an awesome metallic color. These are all for epoxy paste. And for people that love to get cells and have a problem doing it with resin that's the key. Because it's an epoxy paste. I'm going to take these up so I can see. So, there you go. Oxy pigment. This is teal. And then we've got bright gold. There we go. On the resin can I put regular acrylic paint? Yeah, you totally can. Which what kind of paint do you use? I think the important thing to think about is what you're wanting in your piece. Like if you want something transparent use an ink. If you want cells use a paste. If you want just color without any effect you can use acrylic. Ultimately what you use depends on what you're going for. Yeah. Because they don't have a different effect. So, queen. This is all of it. I usually will put like a clear coat down so that the resin flows more easily over the surface. But this is your piece. Oh no. Now I'm so nervous. Don't be nervous for sure. I'm nervous. What are we doing? I just go for it. So the ratio this is 10 to 1. Right? 10% is the general rule. Now how do you generally just take Yeah, I usually put the resin in first because that will give me like an idea of how much that will be. I'm very nervous. The epoxy base is more likely to give you cells because it's like, it's Jeff on Jeff's in the house the workman's on. He's logged on from a bachelor party in Austin. No. Cool. Alright, so, you just eye don't you? My eyes know that like me and Matt we're not real tight. Yeah. I usually just eyeball it and help with that. And if it doesn't work out, I almost always over make resin and then whatever leftover I have I'll make posters. Yeah. I'll find something to do with it. Yeah. Especially not resin. I'll just take a little extra canvas. Oh my gosh, this is a bit too thin. Okay, so this is Rob, I don't know if that like casting craft is considered a case, but it does work. That's a little bit of a long way with that gold. Yeah. Because it's like super thick. Okay. No pressure, no whammy. I believe in you just like you believe in me and my ring for. Don't mean there is. Oh, I have a troll. You have a troll? I don't know. Someone said that. Who's on here that I have ideas, I see you rolling. Who's somewhere on here that like you trust to be a moderator? Oh my god. Where's your dad? Dad, are you still on there? Could you give me one moderator? Okay. Okay. Okay. Alright dad, you're going to become an AID here. So now he can block people delete comments. Cool. Okay, Janet, a troll is someone that like just kind of goes around and spreads nastiness pretty much. Let's just put it that way. So yeah dad, you can block or delete comments if you need to. I trust you. So I'm going to keep my mixing here. Okay, so this is a powder. I didn't see anything but I'm not really paying attention so. I get trolls on live feeds every once in a while. There's a guy called Stinky Pete that comes in or something like that and it's all the time like who has the best smelling feet and like goes on rants and like change somebody. Can I get a little bit of help? Cool. Okay. And then this one is which? That is purple rain. Purple rain. And it is one of my favorite, it's a deep deep like this is purple rain. But it thins out like when you tilt it to like a really deep violet. I don't even have any pieces. Most of my purple rain pieces though. Is this what you use online? Yes, I did. See? Okay. We're probably going to do all five here. Ron said having these two together and having chocolate and hamburgers. Yep. It's got to be, it's like the re-seize. Yeah. It's bananas, there's a lot to say about that. Okay. So this can just come right out, right? Where is next media from? She is from California. I'm from Los Angeles, y'all. She lives in like the big city. I'm from New Delhi. I'm from the valley to be honest. I'm from the valley. The valley. Like, you know, nine or two and I'm from the valley. I literally am a valley girl. Yes. Jella. Justine went to Loretta and Artesu is officially broke. Thank you, David. Okay. Last color, we're mixing up and then we're going to kind of go for it. All right, now this is thick. Yes. So this is the paste. Yes. So do you need less of this? Okay. Now, I don't also mind if this is translucent because it's white. Right. So I'm just going to do just a little. What do you recommend doing more than that? Um, it's still going to be okay. Okay. That's fine. It looks good. It looks good. I would have brought over some translucent one. Like, I have a lot of ink. And I do have extra in here. So I'm going to I'm just going to use quarter to have you. Yeah. Sometimes what I'll do before I even start mixing my resin is I'll spray paint the base. Yeah. Because it's going to gap.  There's enough in there if you want to make more of a color. It's harder to like pick up what's on the table. But I usually will go back and stay on the side if I need to and I can get a look. Yeah. She actually finishes her paint when they seem to fall pretty. Unlike me. I just ship them out. I'm like, can you get the chin? I don't know. No one's going to see the back. I think it's like war wounds kind of, you know. But Well, a lot of people with the resin and the egg I think it would definitely look better than just using it off the back. It looks not like a print. Yeah. All right. We're going to use our heat gun here to get rid of the air bubbles on the clear coat. Okay. I will do more like I love it. Yeah. I just was nervous. Hey, Kareem. Oh, okay. I did a ring pour with acrylics and guess what? It was not mud. No, it was awesome. I'll show you all at the end of this. Okay. Did you prep the red? No. I whispered that so that your channel can stay PG. That's okay. You can say that again. It's alone. That was a good one. Yes, Missy. You can ask me your questions and I will do my best to answer. I usually tell the people when I'm online to put questions in all caps so I don't miss them. For anyone who doesn't know on my channel yet, ATD is Artists Til Death. So go ahead and look that up and subscribe immediately. Right now. Also, but in a new time so that you don't lose your feet. Right. I think everybody in my feed knows. I think they're like all cross-subscribed. Because when I checked yours for your troll you were like I see all of you. Right? Oh, someone wants to be our assistant. You can be our assistant. I know. We're looking for an intern. But you're going to have to be willing to travel between Los Angeles and Dallas and then potentially like Canada and Europe and all the things. Horrible, horrible job. Right. Very good. Okay, now what? The difference with resin very similarly to how you do them with acrylics. The differences are you don't mix the medium. The medium is the resin. Yeah. And you have to use heat because it pops the bubble. Right. Yeah. You can do flip cups. You can do ring pours. You can do string holes. You can do the bottle bottom things. All the things you can do with the resin. Okay. So if your favorite is a ring pour I can get you a cup. If you want to do like a puddle pour it works. Okay. So here is the person that should be blog. The root, right? That'll just remove the comment. You need to hide them from your channel. Yeah. There we go. Okay, cool. Yeah, that's kind of the problem with doing a crop over here. But I have a few people set up with moderators. Yeah, she's like all of them. All right. Here we go. So, I'm going to I'm going to kind of take what I have learned from watching all the artist till death videos. And we're going to add tanks. Don't be nervous.  Or it's going to be you know, it's going to be amazing. That's exactly the mindset. It's going to be the most brilliant pour. It will. You'll be like what? You haven't done a hundred resin videos before. Right? It's where my head is really not that pretty. People are like no sippies, sippies? No. They are just dinner with drinking the bottery. Okay. So this is like a metallic steel? Yeah, that's the powder. So that was a bit translucent. Yeah. And you can always add more when we get to that. I honestly don't know how resin works. But with paint I tend to add a bit of white Okay, so with that view, I'm definitely going with a lot slower than probably normal. Well, the thing is, like, Art Resin has one of the longest open times. Right, it's about 45 minutes, right? I've worked on an hour. Into an hour. Okay. And further. All right, so let's go ahead and we're going to heat. Let's move it around. Yeah. I'm just trying to, like, give you a longer look. I don't always keep mine on low, but you can definitely kick it out. Cool. It's so exciting. Okay. Basically, heating the epoxy paste and letting it run over the other colors is what will make the cells in them down. There you go. This is where I got my tattoo from. Whoa, look at that. Cool. Okay. So far, so good. Close captioning is a thing on my feet. Oh, cool. What do you think so far? Are we good? Yeah. I was just watching all these little skills. I don't even know. Now, gold is the color that will take over. Take over. I want to kind of later this good. Do I need it for maybe this lower plaster or not? I don't know. I actually kind of like that one. I don't like those little swirlies, but I got some little swirlies in there. I think of my point too little, too fast. But that's okay. You know what? I think that it's going to be awesome. It is. It's not like these are the major things. The thing about resin is you can only control it so much. It's that kid in Walmart that you told couldn't get skills today. And it is long before having. Okay. I'm going to cross over with this. So this is a teal. I'm going to go back to my heat gun. I like that also. Yeah. Okay. I'm taking this so slow. I'm sorry for any individual people. Why are you heating every phone color tonight? Because I'm using the heat gun to blend the colors. I'm going to go basically. I don't think there's particularly right or wrong with that. I think you could kind of do either. Everybody's like you're doing so great. You're doing good so far. I think little lines. They can't help me get these ones. Okay. That's it. I think I just need to pour more. Yeah. Is that it? Yeah. I'm just so nervous. I'm going slow guys. I'm sorry. Don't apologize. It's all learning curve. Okay. We're going to go back to our curve. Someone apparently on the floor just dropped a marble. That happens all the time. Okay. Now you don't have to just use the heat gun to move around. You can just kind of move it around, right? You can. They still did. Yeah. The heat bends it out. So that it's like more fluid. Yeah. I think that's something I could have done a little better in my other paintings to use more heat. All right. Let's do it. Okay. It's easier with like two people. That way you have someone like holding it for the tilt. Yeah. All right. Where are we going so far? So are you good? Mm-hmm. Where did your question go? The heat gun will make it set slightly faster. I don't think it's fast enough that you have to worry about it moving super slowly, right? Just kidding. Yeah. Everybody likes super tilt. Super tilt. Super tilt is something Jeff does when he's like, let's be extra. Yeah. But we're definitely going to have some extra. Perfectly fine. I'm going to kind of, I think, finish off these edges of it. You can also like flow on them after you fill it out. The teal is so pretty. It is a great teal. Marci said it's David from the coaster. Love the color combo. Do not super tilt. Okay. We start, we've made eight ounces. The teal is by Artissou. The color is teal. I'm going to put a little more paint on here and then we're going to go in the torch again and see what we've got. Everybody's like, blow. People are like, don't blow. Don't blow. We're going to do a pregnant one. Super purple thing. So we're just going to get the perfect one. I think you have a definite direction, like obvious. And then you're like, mark, mark. I love that because it's like too, you know, sometimes it's just too much in one direction and you're like, yeah. I need something that's like out of the blue Austin. I need something going this way. It's symmetrical and whatnot. Could you add alcohol to the top of this for another layered effect? You can out, you can. And we can do that if you want to get it crazy. The thing about adding alcohol is it's almost guaranteed to give you pitting. That's a good question. Yeah, because I added some alcohol and I did get a little bit of pitting, but maybe that's fine. I didn't even mind it. Y'all, Sheila Jones said need some awesome new colors. I will read later. How great are these? It makes me want to do an earth tone. All right, I'm going to get back to helping. I got this. I have two arms now. I'm a mother, so that's like having ten arms. Definitely multi-caster, okay, people? Yeah. You can also like blow it? Yeah, like that. All right, guys, we're going to pull through the blowing. You're about to pull out some awesome leaves in there. Oh, my goodness, this is so fun. If you end up with a better piece than I've ever done, we're literally candy friends. Also, I'm coming over. Yeah. Just going to have to kind of crush my garage. Rod, I am not sure what brand they are. You guys, I'll get back to your questions in just a second, I promise. It says H&C. I'm not sure. I can't remember what that stands for. Sheila, what is the H&C stand for? Also, congrats on your commission. Ooh, those are looking real nice. Yeah. Kevin, what do we think? What do we think? I kind of do maybe want to blow a little bit there. All right, I'll get at it early. All right, here we go. Don't mess it up. Be upset if fibromyalgia is to be up at 5am to watch ATD after dark. Be, you're drunk. You're not allowed to message.  Karen will put you in timeout. Oh, thank you, Dad. You're good. That looks amazing. I know, right? I think, I don't know. Are you happy with it? I'm down. Everything you've done going on here, I had some killer cells. That's super unique to your, like, doidly poor, because it was like this. Yeah. So that's what gave you those. I have lots of filled, late things. That's kind of like overdone with like, yeah, a lot of stuff. Do you guys want to see a close-up? No, no, no. Super light-headed. Yeah, I'm a pro at this glowing stuff. I know that's what I'm saying. Okay. Now, you have a little pitting here. Um, yes. I would just draw some purple just into that spot. You can use, like, the tip of the tip of the tip. I know. Be ready to your own. That's a good person to be married to. Yeah. Right. Someone else has another name. I got to write it off. I have these things. So I told him it's like, you guys want to see a close-up and listen to your answers? Rejected all of your answers. I'm just going to play a little bit. And then I kind of ignored you. So I have these, like, silicone combs that I started using to, like, because I did do that one time. I was like, kind of so fun. And I did these, and they're all like, I forget that I have them. Yeah. I think that was good. Okay. I think I'm going to leave it.  Okay. Try to figure out if you've got enough. I'm going to move that over to the area. Okay, well, let's do this close-up real quick. Okay.  Yeah, there is less glue here on hers. All right, guys. Hold on. It's going to shake for a second. Unavoidable, I guess. All right, guys. I forget what size this is. I think it's 10 by 20. I think you're right. Canvas. And it's the gallery. Okay. So, like, here's this really cool cell, the lacing over here. A little cool whiskey there. And a cool glitter particle. Oh, my gosh. So much fun. Yeah. Here you go. I hope you guys like it. I'm learning from the best over here. And if you come to Texas, she'll teach all of you understand. I will. I have a class on June 2nd. There you go. She has a class on June 2nd. There's no glitter, but there's gold. The gold is really sparkly. Really kind of good. Is that better on the glare, guys? Let me know. Oh, my God. Can you mail that to me? It matches. Sure. So I'll do it like it's all for sale. Oh, yeah. Everything's for sale. Do you have enough for like... Yeah, we totally have enough. All right. I'm going to switch out. Okay. How do you normally touch your phone and not get resin all over it? Oh, because you didn't do resin paint yet, huh? Nope. I was like, I'm rinsing all over my glove. Ah, magic. Magic. Okay. I'm going to have to nail you a box of gloves. Next. Thank you. This is my third period. I go through all of them. I'm not sure what... That's a really good question, Mitzi. Yeah, and Kimberly, I'll make sure we get the products in there. Sierra, how much does resin cost? It really depends on what kind of resin you get. Art resin for a gallon is, I think, about $100 for a gallon of resin. So it depends. You can get, like, at Michaels or Hobby Lobby, you can get, like, in Miratags, but they're, like, coupon. Yeah. It's, like, $20 for 32 ounces. Yeah, it just depends on what you want to do, guys, because the art resin, it has a much higher working time, which is one of the benefits of it. But anyway, so just, you know, you can research the different... different resins in the benefits of them. Um, Mitzi? That's a good question. I still don't know how much. Why? She doesn't know how much it is. Oh. What? I don't know. Can you message me? Message me after that? For the resin? No, for the paintings. No, for the paintings. Um, yeah, if you could message me on either my Facebook page or Instagram or email me info at thepainterinnew.com and we'll figure something out. We'll get that to you. This is art resin. Can you see it? People are, like, oh, do you say art resin is 119 a gallon direct from them online? Nurse calls. What's your question? I'm here for you. If you wanted to ask Greg a question, let's do a resin dirty pour tree ring. There's a lot. There's a lot happening. Do we have enough to do that? I don't know if she has a problem. I'll leave that up to her. I guess I can be, I'm going to make this thing. Yeah? Do you have a shot? No. Okay. Um, my computer is 11. All right. So, we have, I got a float cup. I got a float cup. Well, Greg, Oh, thanks, Greg. Okay. So we have a thing in terms of like light and dark and what we would want to make. So I'm going to start with purple and gold. But the thing about resin is it's because of its consistency and viscosity and the science in it. Yeah, it won't. It doesn't. Like with acrylic, you have to like, look at her name rephrasing me more like what colors I want to be next to each other. Have you been at it? I don't know. I'm going to turn it. Yeah. Okay. And sorry, guys. On my side, I hope my stream is still up. My computer went off so I can't see your comments for the moment. Um, oh. Your stream is still live. Okay. So I will fix my computer in just a second. I may simply need to plug it into a charger. It didn't give me the warning that your battery was going to run out. But I don't know. I'll fix it in a second. So all of you mix media, gals, people, I will give her a list of all the products that we used. Um, and she can link it in the description box so that you. Yeah. You don't have to wonder. All of everything. All of the products used. This is going to be crazy. Now I really like that look in the cover now. Even I haven't done this before, you know. Does the resin give you a high like spray paint can? No. Um, and here's what I'm going to do on the cups that I'm done with. I'm going to flip them over on here. Just so we kind of use everything. That cup used to be cut down. I know it is. It's a bit long. Doesn't she do it? Oh, I'm fighting the urge. Just go with it. That's also what she did. Oh, I missed that one. Yeah. Okay. So we have a couple more. Don't go for it. Where do you get Promeran? I can link that for you. I think I have it linked in some of my other videos if you look in the description box. Um, you can get it off Amazon or Promeran's pro-marine. Pro-marine. Website. Okay. I can't totally heard pro-mary. I was a little confused. We're so glad you tuned in, Amanda. Promeran's working time is about the same as Empire Tides. It's like 30, 45 minutes, depending on how hot it is in your space. Ideally for... Oh my God. I'm scared. Okay. Oh my God. Resident and computer. You got time. No rush. Y'all, I think I got, um, her Super Rhino doing lines now. Maybe she'll start it. Yeah.  Where's a good place to put them? That's what you got. I don't know. Okay. I love this one. In fact, this one. It's like I said I didn't like it in the morning. Maybe it just... Oh, now it does. Fantastic. Answer. All right. Luckily my phone was fully charged. Okay, good. Are we still alive on here? Should be. Let's say. I don't know if I can't see the comments. Does that mean it's not... I don't know. It is. It just means no one's saying anything at that moment. No one's saying anything. What? Oh, there we go. Okay. Okay, good. Then it'll pop back up. Okay, good. All right. Whoo. Okay, good. Yeah, if it wasn't live anymore, it just wouldn't be there. Okay. Like a video would be cut. Here's a good question. If you're not using acrylics, do you not have to put your colors in any particular kind of order when you're going to do like a flip cup or something like that? Well, if she's asking about if you're not doing acrylics as in... If you're not doing just an acrylic pour. Like you're doing a resin pour as opposed to an acrylic pour. It really doesn't matter. Okay. It comes down to what colors you want to see next to each other. You don't have to really stress about if this color and this color mixes. Is it going to make mud? Is it going to be pretty color? It's really not a concern. It just comes down to will I like them if I swatch it? I get it. I do like swatches before I do a pour just to see if I do like the colors next to each other. Okay. That's a good question. Missy and anyone else that missed it, the email and info at the painter in you. That's my email. And yes, we will put all materials in the description. Okay. Do you want to try to do this? Now that you're like a pro at drawing those. Negative? Negative. Okay. This is exciting. This is definitely, definitely first for me. Give that a minute. Let's do this. Because it's exciting. Have you done this before? That's your room with breading? I have. And then it didn't work out. It just wasn't my favorite result. But that is completely because I'm poor. I'm triggering though. All right. This is okay. I'm very nervous. All right. Let's do it. That looks so good in there. So far so good. And guys, all of my computer back up in just a second to be answering your question. That purple and the gold next to each other or kind of the vandals? Yeah. The thing about doing a triggering for if you don't want cells, kind of use the wrong paint to avoid cells, because so many of them were in your case, which tended to sell. I think it's okay. You know, I just, I put my finger there to avoid the dripping. And then I just stuck my finger right in the room. I don't know. Nailed it. Crushed it. So nailed it. Okay. Sorry guys. This is really my first time. So, I like to make sure that there's resin like at least a little bit, even if it's going to get all the people saw. I think everybody's zoomed in on like before, so nobody saw embarrassment base. So resin's going to tend to go where there's already like a trail of resin kind of like if you do watercolor. Right. Yeah. It's the same thing with the acrylic paint too. So I kind of, I will bring it out to the edges, especially if it's maybe not like as much paint as normal. And that way it has something to follow. Right. To the edges. So I'm kind of like just adding. No, it's good. Because you need to do that while you're doing that. That's fine. My live streamers are used to like me being on here until like, we've gone to like a minute before. We've gone four hours. I know. But like that's my first time. I was like, you know, I have to be personally doing something. Well, you know. You know the purpose. Nope. Making it work the way you got is kind of one of the mottoes on my channel. Yeah. I have to be careful with stuff. I dig out the table. Yeah. There's a couple of drops of, I think we're covered now though. So guys, I'm sorry. I haven't gotten the comments back up yet. We're going to do this. I'm going to have to do this. Oh, geez. Right in the middle. There you go. Okay. I think you saw that. Well, maybe I'll kind of flip it. Okay. Can you guys go see that? I don't know if you can or not. We're going to go with it. Yeah. I'm sorry guys. Just one thing. You watch her hair. I know I got resume on my hair like two days ago. Two days ago. I got enough of that.  Thanks for the heads up, Karen. Good looking out. We were like at the fire. He did. Yeah, I think we need to. Right. Ian K.B. said, tell Marcie to fix her stream. People are like walking into mine to, like, holla. I'm sorry, Diane. How do I switch around? They're good. Why Fly 93? It does not smell depending on what brand of resin you use. Yeah, because the art resin, that's another good thing about it. It really doesn't smell. Relatively low odor. Yeah. Okay. I don't know what to stop here. All right. I think we need to heat, right? Yeah. Or do you want me to heat it? You can heat it out too. Let's do more here. One of the great things about resin though, in my opinion, is you can heat a spot and it's got to move. And other spots that have been sitting longer won't adjust. Right. Yeah, that's good. For me? And anywhere close to heating your fingers up. Very good. All right. What do we think? And we've got some spots here. Yeah. Okay, we're back. Okay, Janet. Janet, I did not see your question about the power in the resin. Can you open the question again? I'm so sorry. Another good thing about having a reliable moderator is that they can help you answer questions. Like, you're looking down. Yeah. I think if people don't learn the answers to, like, my dad would have no idea. My dad did not come paint with me. So you can learn all the answers. Is he out in California at all? Yeah, he was down the street. That's convenient. Totally. But you need a loader to actually move the resin to heat the resin. Mostly in this case, mostly to heat it so that we can move it. Where it's not moving the resin so much itself as we're heating it. So right now we have a couple of little, like, pock marks. So we're kind of filling those in. Well, she is. I wouldn't even know that trick. I just picked up a similar color since I'm out in these cups. Yeah. And filling that. Cool. The thing about this is not a blow dryer. This is a heat gun. And you can use a blow dryer. But the thing about it, a blow dryer is it moves a lot of air. And you don't really want that in a lot of cases. You just want it to heat up the resin, not move the resin. You know what I mean? Like, if I brought a blow dryer out, it pushes air. Yeah. It's very spacey. Okay. That's a good question. I think you would want to mix it in the resin, but we'll ask Erica. So Janet was asking if she were to put resin on something and then put glow in the dark powder on top of that. I'm assuming while the resin is still wet. Yeah. Rather than mixing it in with that work. Or is it better to just mix it in? There are a lot of times that you can just, like, this piece, I put powder on over it. I don't know if you can see the, like, gold powder. Like, where? I'm showing you. I don't know what I'm showing you. But I still got it. Yeah. The shimmer. That's from blowing powder over it. I don't like my cover. It's just, yeah, it's too hard. But it's like the same color too. Right? They're twin twiddies. But in terms of glow in the dark. I don't know that it would be a thick enough powder powder to make a difference. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. So I guess it would depend on what you're using. What product you're using because there's glow in the dark everything while putting the different products. So I have a glow in the dark that's really banana. There you go. I'm just gonna show you what's good for you. This is my go-to for glow in the dark powders. It charges. Ooh. Cool. Yeah, like. Oh, that's so awesome. And so now that'll be lit up for a little bit. And it comes in a number of colors. Oh, good. That's what she has. That's what she had. Okay. So with that, he would recommend just mixing it into the resin. I would mix it in. And not only mix it in, but like worry that you mix too much in. Okay. Like it takes a lot more pigment. Also, the powders work better than like the paste. Cool. All right. Well, that's the exciting thing. Okay. Now, when you're using resin, if you don't have enough resin to cover it, you're more likely to get hitting. So we kind of have to baby it just a little bit. Yeah, that's okay. You know, it's all part of the process. Experimenting. Yes. This looks super spooky. All right. Let me get a shelf. Cool. And then we can just answer questions for a minute if someone wants to. Or like people have questions that we met. Like a Q&A question. Yeah. Yes. Janet, I would love to see that.  And you can just pay me whatever they're shipping. Yeah, and I'll just ship it straight to them. That way we don't have to like package it and ship it too many times. Yeah. So kind of a question on the blow dryer here. Someone said maybe not use a blow dryer because it moves it too fast and you'll get more hitting. But I think that depends on your settings, right? Right. So I think if you were to use it on a low setting, I mean, because I've used it multiple times for the hair dryer. And I've never really had issues with that. So I think it just depends on the settings that your hair dryer has. Right. And overall, definitely better because it's less forced and it's just heating it up. Exactly. I personally would use a heat gun if we were going to... No, a blow dryer if I just wanted to move rather than around the lot. But I would still use a heat gun or torch to pop bubbles because... Yeah. I'm dancing. I wanted to see it. You didn't show your guys a close up? Sorry, y'all. Oh, man. I failed. Yeah. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Yeah. She missed. Sorry. BRB. No. Just missed everything. That's all. My heat gun is Ranger. But where did you get your heat gun? Mine's a Wagner and I got it off like Home Depot, like out of Home Depot for like 20 bucks. There you go. I'm going to have to baby this one a little bit because the paint was thin. I mean, like we didn't have that much resin left, but... There we go. Cool. Super spicy, guys. I like it. Finding the hair dryer doesn't heat the resin up, you know. That could definitely be true. Oh my goodness. I actually tried to ring for it last night and then I got over it and did this to it. I like 93, not the heat gun. I got a torch at Walmart, but not the heat gun. Yeah, my heat gun is Ranger and then hers, she got it on me. This is a... It's a torch. There are many different torches. So this is the one I just got that my roommate just got me and then broke a week later. And then apparently she just bought me a new one. And this is like the heavy duty torch. Yeah, we use the bigger one for serious business. When we do the countertops and things like that, we use the heavier duty torches. Yeah. Okay. So with the live speed after it's done, you can go back to any point, right? Yes. It almost like a regular video. Yeah. It'll be like a regular video. You can go back and you can see the finished piece again. Yeah. Where can I get cheap wooden old stuff to do practice for them? You need to make friends with someone in the construction business. Right. I have my dad, Greg, who does heat builds. Horses. Yeah. That's my one. My whole family is in construction. Oh. Oh. Jealous. Yeah. I got lots of wood hanging around plus endless saw blades. Oh. I'm really working towards it. That's what she said. I love to pour on the saw blade. Yes. I skip right over that wood comment. But M, I would just practice on anything that you can get your hands on. Are we going to pour again? Okay. She's getting out the triangle. That's what he just said. Yeah. He does all shapes and sizes. He brought this one over just recently. I haven't poured on this one yet because I don't want to waste it. And I don't know what I want to make it be. Crap. How do I do this again? How do I resume it? Go to the live. Yeah. No. Is that the wrong one? And then flip it. Yeah. Okay. Oh. Sorry, guys. Internet in my building is just. Yeah. Poopy. I blame the internet in the building. But if I go live in LA, it would be fine. Thanks. So these are boards that he's built for me to try out. I haven't tried them yet because I don't know what I'm going to do on them. He does, like, birch and I don't remember that one. These lip-painting. Those are canvas, right? Oh, yeah. Those are canvas. Yeah, those are canvas. Cool. And I'll put all of the artists on the link in the description as well. Even though everybody in my feed does who you are, I'm going to do the same for a year or two now. Okay. So do you want to just do a Q&A session? Yeah. If you guys have any questions, we're here to answer them. Yeah. Because we couldn't, like, get to it earlier. And I do apologize, guys. I've been loved to stay in paint all night, but I literally have been driving for two days. Y'all. She drove from LA to Texas. Well, from LA to Vegas to the Grand Canyon yesterday. And then I drove to Texas. Did you zip line under the Grand Canyon? I didn't. I wanted to, but I didn't. But next time. Maybe on your way back through, you can, like... Well, that's probably the way out of the way. To go back through the Grand Canyon. It just wasn't reckoning, but yeah, it's kind of out of the way. I think it's probably more direct. We'll probably just direct back to LA. So tonight's my only night to actually get sleep. Yeah. Not in the car. Restful sleep. Our resin pours on canvas or boards. You can do either. The two that we just did were on canvases. I think the boards are, I think, better if you're going to be doing multiple layers. Yeah, it's going to get heavy on you. It's going to get heavy and definitely want to look into getting boards. But if you prep your canvas properly, it will at least likely dip in the middle. You'll be busy here in Iowa. I feel like that is slightly... I'm going to get the one I did so we can show them the one you're going to rent. Oh yeah, y'all. I'm doing a collaboration. And she did a tree ring pour. And I'm going to do my best to add to it and make it something amazing. This is on moon. I get these woodpan holes generally from Blix. You can order online. Or if you have a store near my... This looks so great. When I would do my acrylic pours, it would be just mounds of paint. It looks like this. It's self-lawless. If I bring that one over there that I scraped off, I'll add more paint. I'll add epic than this. And I scraped it completely off. And it's important to get the right consistency. That's really the hardest part. And sometimes that can take months to get it down or whatever. You're persistent. Okay, so there's a good question. Well, two questions, Gary. I think you missed it earlier. What type of resin? So we used art resin. There are different kinds of resin you can use. We used art resin. And then Kimberly asked a proper canvas prep. So for the resin, what she did is she painted it and then sanded it. Do you want to tell them about that? That's a good question. I actually have a tutorial on my channel about the process, the entire process. And so basically, I'll paint it with flat white house paint, let it dry, or hit with a heat gun, and then sand it down. And that will help tighten the canvas. So you can also just rinse the back of the canvas with warm water. To tighten it up. Yeah, to tighten it up. That's one of those phrases. Dammit! Okay, so we need to have this completely covered. I don't understand. Gary, thank you. I did get that comment and just sent it to the school. Oh, mine's coming back. The feed's still good. So go ahead and keep hitting us with your... Okay, good. So I'm good with Gary's questions. Keep hitting us with your questions. We don't have Erika's feed back up quite yet. Okay, portions. Okay, art resin. Well, it's going to depend on the resin you use, but art resin is one-to-one. So you have hardener and then resin. And then anything that you mix in, you're going to want to do ten-to-one. So ten resin, and then one what you're mixing in. And that you might want to be a little flexible with depending on what it is. Mm-hmm. That would be an awesome geo. I'm scared. Does Greg have a Wednesday? Greg has an Etsy. It's ABG Designs. Oh, very yes, Blake. Blake does have art resin. Good night, Catherine. And Kimberly said she'll check out that tutorial on the prepping. So I will send you the link to that if you want to add it as a card. Yes, as a pop-up. Okay, yeah, I can add it as a card in the video later. So many, that's what she said. Why do you paint the side of the canvas? I usually paint the sides to sell the color because it just looks better when the paint gaps a little bit like this. And while I appreciate it being organic, like the drips, like this. I don't know how to use this. I don't know. It looks better if I'm using a lot of black here that the side matches. Yeah. So that's what that is. Someone said, like, Catherine said she likes the sparkles on the painting. Oh, I do? Yeah, there's a couple here. They are in them. Layers. This one just sold, actually. It seemed very heavy. That one. They can double as a weapon. They can. You can use it as a ninja star. Jordan and just being like, yeah, TWS says that's what she said. So if you, are you guys, like, good on the questions? I'll post it. As soon as we're done with the fee, I'll post it. There you go. Yeah. I mean, you can always go into the comments too and ask questions later. Yes. So if we missed any, do ask them in the comments. E, did you use puff paint to separate your resin on your G.O.? I did not use puff paint. What I did with the puff paint was on the outside, right here, that's where I used the puff paint just to create, like, an actual line that separates the G.O. from the crazy. No, no, no. It is. It's like G.O. banana. Yeah. But that's where I used the puff paint. The textured, yeah, raised portion. Cool. And you have videos on this as well? This was a lot of fee from, like, two days ago. Yeah. I'm gonna post the timelapse of the other one probably tonight. I have nothing to do. I'm home alone. Cool. Okay. And then the insulation, if I always have your question, Gary. Honestly, it depends on the kind of resin you're doing, but I think, yes, you should always have at least a nice, wide-open space and some airflow.  And art resin particularly is very good for if you have to do it inside. I always just like to read off the wall. So it has no VOCs, no BPA. So just the odor and toxicity factors are much, much lower than on most other resins. Yeah. I have some down here that are like, you open it and you're like, I'm a guy today. I need to have like a has-nots. Christina, I haven't been on my Facebook today, but tonight's gonna be the night that I go through everything. Good night, Lisa. I said bye. No, we're not gonna do any more pours. She taught me how to do an acrylic triggering pour. And I know I can't do another pour because she just drove in from LA. She's like, I'm over the day.   Yeah. Good up in the morning and drive back to LA. Turn around. I can't even. It's like 20-some-an-hour drive. Obviously you need to like eat fruit and stuff too. And I brought my poor daughter with me. Right, you made her suffer. Yeah, I made her suffer. No, she wanted to and she missed two days of school. So she's like, pardon me. Right, turn up. Born free. There's a good little mother-daughter trick. Right? Everybody's like, you drove? I drove. Yeah, because I'm crazy like that. Pour once you have to sit. Once you have to sit. I might come back on and do a pour later tonight. Who knows? Make sure you click the bell so you get the notification. Yeah. People are like, it's still early though because I'm very used to my videos going. It's super late. Okay. Well, do you know how to do another pour? We can do another pour. That's fine. Oh, an acrylic one? Yeah, if you want. Yeah, we have that other canvas prep. We've brought two different ones. Yeah, he's in. Y'all, if you could do, we could do a flip cup instead of... Okay, if you want. Yeah. All right, all right. We've heard your prize. Okay. So give us just a second to prep here. Reboot. Reboot. All right. It's only late. And you know, I don't need sleep. Well, a little bit of sleep. Technically, LA is coming. So it's only really seven. I did these posters on my last three p.m. Yeah, so you can also do that with extra paint slept over. And then you could rip it. These are so great. I got these for like $14 for a stack of 100. Yeah, it's all on Amazon, right? Yeah. Yeah. And so they don't work when you pour. That's really awesome. I've done tile posters before. Yeah. But then you got to do all kinds of stuff with the back and the sides and the sanding and whatever. I guess you could tell that to me. Well, since I lay them flat on these sheets, I don't get the... I don't get the base of it. And so then, actually... I'm just going to put some wax paper down. Yeah, really? So we don't write them with a little pen. I just don't know what happened. Kimberly. I'm not going anywhere. Yeah. Rainbow core. You want to do a rainbow core? I use the rainbow. Rainbow. That's who does my canvas board. Yeah. Good guy. Yeah, Rainbow and I will have to get you in touch. What's great about what Greg does is if you're like, I'm really interested in a specific shape. Yeah. Which is good because I want to go down. And this is one of the sizes, too. Like, I tried to do a tree rein and then it was like... So I just added those. It looks like a cartoon character. And then I decided I'm just going to sign it in resin. And then it went, I like it. I like it. Struggles. So that's varnish to seal the coaster. Well, the resin coaster, you don't need to seal it because resin seals itself. If you're doing an acrylic core on a coaster, you can seal it with resin. You can also seal it with polycrylic. If resin makes you nervous because it's a good supplement. Yeah. And this is water-based. Just to be very clear, there's oil-based and water-based. You do not want oil-based. You don't want yellow, right? So I don't want that yellow. You got to make sure you get the right one. Okay. What would those things called you just had as a coaster? Oh, they're just little wood. They're not. They're compressed paper. Oh. Right? Even more. Ink, fish, and co. 4-inch round. Can you all see that? I'll send her a link. Yeah, I'll link in the description as well. Does Greg sell wood? That's what she asked. I don't know. But he just left the room. So. Wood is heavier, but I think you don't go to bed. I think that they both end up pretty heavy because of the resin.  Nicole, I do not seal the coasters at all. I will seal the back of it with a polycrylic, just so that for condensation and stuff like that, you know what I'm saying. Kimberly, we were talking about sealing the coasters that you do, and I put the pour on. That's what we're going to be talking about. Okay. Everybody's like, two of my favorite pour people coming together. I'm going to have, I'm making sure it says I'm a pour artist, but like P-O-U-R. Yeah, shout out. Yeah, shout out to someone who I thought has the best IG name. Is acrylic porn? But P-O-U-R. Oh my goodness. Anyway, I'm going to be resin porn now. Yeah, okay. Resin porn. This is what the one from my side looks like. That's awesome. Like that pink is a powder, so it's like that weird metallic, iridescent. Yeah. So I was pretty happy with it. When I poured it, I was like, this is going to be a nightmare. It's not going to work out like I want to do. But it did. No, that's awesome. Amazing what you can do in one night. Like, I poured this one like basically the same night. It didn't look like it. So like, redemption. I need a redemption. Okay. Cup. Cup. Okay. What's the best resin for beginner to use? Penny, I would suggest using, depends on your budget. Art resin's amazing, but if you're tight on funds, it's not the best because it's one of the most expensive. But as a beginner, you want the most open time you can get because 30 to 45 minutes comes real quick when you're like, first time. Yeah, and I'm a beginner, and I found that art resin's super easy to use. Like, even my first piece, I was super happy with.  Americans have a lot more. But how long does it take the acrylic pour to dry? Generally about two days. So also longer than resin? It doesn't take about 24 hours. Yeah, you could touch it after 12. Yeah. I have a question. I've done an acrylic pour on a record. How do I have to wait to resin? No silicone and thin paint. So how long after an acrylic pour, if you don't have silicone and the paint is thinner? This is a very, very answer for different people. Honestly, my answer would be probably about four to seven days. I've done it within just like a few days if it's really thin and it dries within a day and whatnot. Some people wait like a whole month. I think that's a little overkill. I think that's excessive. Like once the water is evaporated, it's not going to get any dry. Yeah. So I'd say maybe about four days should be totally fine. Invertex is a good resin to start with. It's easily acceptable. Accessible. You can get it at Michael's. You can use a half off coupon and you'll get 32 ounces for about 20 bucks. Okay. This is 12 and 24 candlesticks. Off line. Why is it so? Brazil. Reconnecting flip. Okay. We're back on. Back on. Judy says three weeks and Marcie says three to four weeks to cure. Apparently it's not about being dry. It's about curing to the canvas. Yes. We're also talking about a record here. Not a canvas. Oh yeah. It's a record. So I'd say just a few days is fine. Canvas, yeah. I probably want to wait a little bit longer. And yeah, it's going to depend on how thick your paint is and everything as well. So, right. See, I didn't even know that because, okay, before the true report that I did tonight with you, this is my best pour. Please hold. I think it's awesome. I'm going to print my cup here. Okay. So, you are going to do a, I don't know, maybe we should do a rainbow one. Boom. I think it's awesome. I did it and it was gorgeous. It's an accidental swipe is what that is. Like, see this funky gray color? That's what it all looked like on the top. So I was like, go over it. And I was like, wait a minute. No, not over it. But wait, there's more. You're, it's crazy that it's doing that, but your feed is still. Yeah. I see your ideas. I see. There we go. Okay. All right. All right. We're back. Okay. Sorry guys.  Well, the G, I know for seeing that I gave it my all and it was not enough. I want to see two B. Okay. These aren't teal. They're like, I just left the liner on. So that because my resin pops right off of this. So like it's not teal, but the liner is teal. Because genius. Also. He was on. Okay. I'm back again. Everybody, right? I'm going to have a magic.  Coconuts. Oh, okay. Are you starting with like darker colors? Yeah. I'm going dark on this. So should I go opposite or do you want to go much? All right. I didn't lean towards dark. I don't know. Okay. Do you have a leaning toward it? No. No. I lean towards wing it. Wing it? That's leaning up to my general. I started with zinc. Just straight out of the bottle. No, this is premixed. I just, I mixed up too much. I'll put it back in the bottle. This is a really cool metallic. It's like silver, but like a darker. So it's like a pewter-ish. Yeah. And then black, purple, blue. I'm kind of going a little bit with this. But I think it's going to be awesome. Definitely on the darker side. Thank you, ideas born. Cut. No, we're not doing a dirty pour. We're doing a flip cup. I'm, I'm oppositing.  Oh, I thought you were... You don't want a dirty pour. Yeah. Isn't that where you like just put it all in there and then pour it? No. Okay, there's two. I failed.  You're going to pour each color individually on the canvas. A dirty pour, you're going to pour all the colors in a cup and then you're going to put it on the canvas one way or another. Either you can flip it, you can tree-ring it, you can just do a design.  I see. Yeah. Okay, so when I first started, I thought that a dirty pour was like, if you put it all in the cup and then you pour it out and then a flip cup is specifically flip cup, like... Yeah. I've never even heard of a dirty versus clean pour. Yeah, so you're kind of... No worries. I like blue. Someone commented once like, I always say a little more blue and then I pour like half of it. That's a little bit all of it. Just a little bit more pink. Well, I did pour red in here. Not a huge pink thing, but you can do pink. No more white. Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay. Yeah. I was just trying to like... Okay. I'm over-glowing in the cup. Down here. It's like a delay. Yeah. Sign here. Can you see that? Yeah, there we go. That's cool. Okay. I'll show every line. Sorry. You're going to turn into... Yeah, I'm horrible. An ATD after dark type person. Show you guys one. One, two, three. I think I showed everybody. Okay. Okay. Yeah, so she's going to get pink. For all of y'all that like pink, that's going to be in her cup. You're welcome. Yeah, you're welcome. I love when it like bubbles back up.  You're doing an acrylic pour. Yes, she is. Don't judge me. Purple Peter, people here. Gary, you're so funny. I still don't have as much as you do. No, you don't. Yeah, that's... I'd say one of... There's two common mistakes. Beginner to make an pouring one is paint too thick and the second one is not using quite enough paint. Come on. I'm still too low. Or not.  Oh, no. You want to do the light versus dark, don't you? It doesn't matter. What did you put in there already? I used blue and blue. And blue. And white and purple and red. Analytical. And NASA blue. Yeah. That's going to go together. And let's just fill yours up a little bit more. Okay. Yeah, you definitely got pink. All right, I think we're good.  That's such a neon pink. I didn't think that would happen. I'm going to add like all the... Are you going to attempt? Please hold. Wait. I'm off the line. Open up again. Okay. Luckily I didn't start the flip cup yet. For them. Okay. There we go. Okay. Sorry, guys. I'm so sorry. All right. Are we going to like put the canvas on it and then put it back over? Well, there's two ways. I'm not drawing a bra about it. Oh, I just... Yeah. Oh my God. Guys, you got this. I don't know if I got it. Either I'm going to like smash it through the canvas or all the paint's going to end up on the laptop. Okay, don't smash it through the canvas. I'm scared. Ready? Okay, there you go. Okay. Nailed it so far. Crushed it. Complete crushage. Okay, good. So, I'm going to move all these bottles real quick while we let the paint like... Subtle. Subtle for a second. And then...  There, not paying attention to color theory. I'm sorry, Anita. I'm going to get... I'm going to get this next online investment. Okay. Go and make sure I'm back on... Yeah, still online. Okay. All right. You ready for any? I don't know. No? Maybe? I'm loving reload. I'm just going to double check to make sure you're... I know.  I got a little over-cleaning. So, I've seen people like surround it. Have you ever done that like drag? Mm-hmm. Yeah, you can. We have way more than enough paint for that, though. Way too much paint? Gotcha. Yeah, for that, you're going to use a smaller little cup. Understood. So, you're laying like a little bit out at a time. Is there like a specific... Kind of whatever you want? That is just awesome together. I love that fade. Yeah. And then here, does this thing work? Or is it just for looks? Um, that is just for looks. You're going to use the big one. It's resin together. Like... Uh, okay. Where did I put the big four? Oh, it's down there? Okay. All right. I have not used one of these in a long time, and I generally use it for campfires. You want me to do it? Yeah. That's fine. You know what? What she's doing, Dad, is she's on her wi-fi, and I'm not. So, I should have gotten on to her wi-fi. So, I'm sorry, guys. Intense. Okay. Maybe we skip torching. We're going to burn it with this thing. This is already kilander now. Okay. This torch is a little intimidating. I'm turning it down. Signs. I think it does matter. I made him light the candles on fire. It's very fine. I've got a fire extinguisher. All right. That's more than keeping it. You beat me again. All right. You've got it. Cool. Can I see your identities below anymore? Are we still alive? Yes. We sure are. Hey, ideas. He's just jogging back and forth. You know what? You guys can tilt this. If you let me tilt it, this is going to happen.  All right. So, we can do, I'm going to just show you real quick. You can do the same thing you do with the rhythm. Okay. And bring these out to the edge. It flows so much easier than, yeah. Okay. It's not half as sticky as the rhythm. So, especially when I don't want to lose too many parts. I'd like to do this because it'll help the paint flow better as you're tilting. Just destroy it a bit less. Give it that kind of cool. Nurse calls. You are going to get addicted. I always warn people that acrylic pouring is the gateway drug to resin pouring. That's bananas. Ew. Mm-hmm. I need some of the secret sauce in your pouring medium. Okay. I'm just tilting this thing. My dusting basket. Oops. You're good. I'm going to paint you. Poitron and distilled water. Does distilled water versus regular matter? That's a good question. I actually used distilled for a while and I noticed zero difference whatsoever. Okay. That's falling off. It's better than my phone. To tap water. It looks like awesome and then blown up. Like when it's like I don't know just like really zoomed in on something. See? So I did stretch this a little more than in one and two. But that's okay. I'm not mad at this being blown up. Yeah. No. Wait, we got a bit of the light versus dark. I actually don't like your half better. I really like how like those red cells pop through. Yeah. And you can sit there for a while and more will happen. You can also torch it after and more can happen. Nervous? You're running away from me. I'm done. I'm going to go over here. So I don't get lit on fire. You just went like into the stream on fire as you were pouring. Well, but I noticed the part over here that needed fixing. Now you don't use silicone or... That's a negative. No. I'm really excited about this. Like I love how it continues over the edge. Yeah. It's a continuation. Yeah. And you totally can use silicone and I think it's good when you're first starting with acrylic pouring to use silicone because it will definitely help you get cells. But after you get your mixture right, it's kind of just another step because then you got to clean it properly in order to seal it. And if you don't clean it and you go ahead and seal it, it won't work. I've been there, done that. The sealing, whatever you're using, it doesn't matter what it is. Whether it's resin or whatever, it won't stick. So you got to, you'll have to clean it.  Like sometimes you can get psycho crazy cells all over the place when you didn't want to. And you know, it just, I think it's a little bit less control on it. Agreed. I used Residu glass on this and I feel like that's kind of the same. Like it just goes retarded a little bit. So like right here, it's got like Residu still. Oh yeah, I see that. I used two drops. Wow. Okay. That's interesting. Yeah. So that's like, like silicone but for resin. It's already blasted. Yeah. For any of you that don't know. To be there. Ta-da! Yeah, there we go. You asked. We answered. Edward said that thing is still oozing. Yes! My God, yes. Use alcohol. Are you asking if we use alcohol in?  Right. Are you talking about like, as a sippy sippy? Yeah. In acrylic pours or in something resin pours? Yes. Well I can answer for acrylic pours. I can't answer for resin but for acrylic pours I do have several videos with alcohol. One specifically that shows two different ways that you can use acrylic. That you can use alcohol in acrylic pours. It is alcohol in acrylic. So if you go to my videos, there's one literally called two ways you can use alcohol in acrylic pours besides drinking it. That's what it's called. Perfect. So what is like, you can actually mix it in with the paints or you can also use it afterwards, spray it on top of what not to create cells and other funky, funky things. Come here. I'm going to say hi. Okay, the puppy is going to come and say hi. This is Kujo. You will like every part of the face. I'm trying not to paint you. Yeah. I know. I'm going to need a baby powder that was oozing. Everybody's like, no. It's so no. It's up. Everybody likes to see you. Yeah. Did you say hi? Did you say hi? Yeah. Yeah. My new best friend. No. Okay. All right, guys. I do have to sign off. So you got to drive tomorrow. Yeah. I'm going to get some sleep. I'm very excited. I'm actually sleeping in bed tonight. All right. He's a companion. Sorry. Totally interrupted. Didn't see sharp teeth. He's ferocious. That's the hilarious part. Everybody's saying drive safe, sleep well. I will. Thank you guys. All right. We'll arrange somehow some way of doing this again. Yes. I plan to do the next few rest of my life. Do a lot of traveling and next few rest of my life. Right. So I will likely be up in Canada soon in New York. Yeah. We're going to a lovely place. And if anyone wants to come to LA and visit me. We'll come out to LA. You totally can. We'll bring them. And we'll go ahead and paint together. Right. All right. Good night, y'all. Good night, Dad. All right. And he's... All right, you guys. We'll see y'all tomorrow. Bye. I said bye.


So, one of the questions I often get from viewers of the channel is how they can introduce Linux to people as far as, you know, striking up a conversation about Linux. And one of the things I like to do is I like to wear these cool t-shirts, like today I'm running this RunGCC shirt that I purchased from the Free Software Foundation. And oftentimes what you guys see, I'm wearing on camera these cool shirts that I buy from the FSL for the EFF, you know, I'll wear them out in public, I'll wear them to the gym, I'll wear them mow in the yard, I'll wear them to the mall. And people sometimes come up to me and ask me about these shirts, like this shirt here. Looks like the RunDMC logo, which a lot of people will come up to me and mistakenly think it's RunDMC and say, hey, man, great shirt. But then they'll catch it and like, well, RunGCC, what is GCC? And I could explain to them about the C compiler, but typically I just tell them that I'm a big fan of Linux, that's why I'm wearing this shirt. And of course they're going to ask, well, what is Linux?  Or if they have Macs, they run the Mac operating system. I explained to them, I'm a big fan of the Linux operating system. I don't go into Free Software, I don't start explaining what the four freedoms are, I don't talk about open source or the open source definition or any of that stuff. I just explained to them, Linux is another operating system. It's an alternative operating system to Windows or Mac OS. Now, I learned a long time ago, keep things simple when introducing Linux to these new people. That's why I don't go into any of these other discussions. I don't try to overwhelm them with the hundreds of distributions that are out there. I don't talk about desktop environments, window managers. On all of that, it's just, hey, Linux is this other operating system. You should give it a try. And if it's a friend or a family member and they want me maybe to install Linux on one of their machines, maybe they got an old laptop that they want me to put Linux on. Typically, I don't even talk to them about distributions, desktop environments or anything. I just put a Linux distribution on it that I think will work for them. Typically, there's a handful of distributions that I typically choose from and those distributions will vary depending on when they've had a recent release. But typically on friends and family computers, I put either Ubuntu, Linux Mint, MX Linux, or here lately I've had pretty good luck with Linux Lite. So all Ubuntu or Debian based distributions, all very new user friendly distributions, I don't really talk to them about choices. You know, I just give them something and that's the best thing. You don't want to overwhelm them with choice. If you start talking about the hundreds of distributions out there and the dozens of different desktop environments out there, you're going to lose them. They're going to be so confused.  Windows is so easy because I don't have choice because that's the way they think because that's the paradigm that they're used to is not having choice and they're probably used to that. And all of a sudden you give them ultimate choice, you lose them. Now you have to be really careful not to introduce any of your own biases into the discussions when you're talking to these potentially new Linux users.  I never tell them the truth, which is it's not necessarily that I'm a fan of Linux. It's a I'm a fan of free software, right? It just happens to be that Linux is a piece of free software, but there's other free as in freedom operating systems out there. I could run any of them because they meet my criteria of being a piece of free software, but that's a much deeper discussion. You know, I don't want to have that discussion with somebody that just asked me about a t-shirt, right? I don't want to talk about the free software movement because they're just not ready for that. They'll explore that on their own, right? When I give them a machine with Linux, Min or Mx or Ubuntu or something on it and they use Linux for a while, you know, they'll discover all of this fantastic software that there is on their computer that they didn't have to pay for it's all free as in cost. And then they'll eventually figure out that it's also free as in freedom. They'll understand what free software is and what open source software is. And they'll explore those avenues on their own, right? You don't want to introduce that to somebody on day one. You don't want to hammer them over the head with free and open source software.  Install Linux on this for me. You know, I run Arch or Arch-based distributions on most of my equipment. I'm not going to put that kind of distribution on their machine, even though it's the one I love.  You know, somebody is really passionate about their distribution. So they try to convince everybody in the world to run it, you know, including friends and families. I'm a big fan of Arch, so anytime a friend or family member asks me, I'm going to install Arch on their computer or Gen2 on their computer or Slackware on their computer. Don't do that.  There's going to be a lot of pain points and they're going to go running back to Windows. And if they have a really bad enough experience, they'll never give Linux a second chance, right? You really only have that one shot to make a first impression. So don't give them something that you know is probably not going to work out for them just because it's what you love. So I don't give family members anything based on Arch, even though that's what I run, right? So I'll give them a machine that's running Linux Mint or Ubuntu or MX or, you know, whatever. And then if they want to explore other possibilities down the road, they'll figure that out on their own. They'll eventually figure out, oh, there's these other distributions I hear people talking about. I should check those out. There's these other desktop environments out there, other than the one I'm currently running. Maybe I should check those out, right? Don't force a desktop environment on them either. This is another thing I see people do. People really passionate about, especially window managers. They're really passionate about OpenBox or i3 are awesome. And then they try to put that on a brand new user's computer because, oh, man, you're just going to love it. No, they're not. They're going to hate it. Just don't do it. You guys, you didn't start out using Arch Linux with the i3 window manager on day one. Don't expect these new to Linux users to start out on day one. They need to use a new user friendly distribution like Ubuntu or OpenSUSA or something like that for six months, maybe a year. And then they'll eventually explore these options on their own. They don't need you for that. Because they've got to figure out what they like. Don't try to force onto them what they should like because it's what you like. But anyway, I'm getting way off topic here. This topic was really just about the shirts and introducing people to Linux in public. So what I recommend you guys do a great way to introduce Linux to the world really is wearing these kinds of shirts because you will have people ask you about it. And again, some people don't really know how to get into that conversation because don't explain that Linux is just a kernel, right? Even though technically you'd be correct. And I'm wrong when I'm telling people Linux is an operating system. But you know what? It's a lot easier for them to understand Linux is an operating system than trying to explain to them what the hell a kernel is. Now, before I go, I need to thank a few special people.
