HUGE Textured Flower - Unbelievable Lacing + Swipe (& SIMPLE DIY Technique!) | AB Creative Tutorial

Today I am going to do something very big. I will use a

simple

texture paste

technique

to make a beautiful piece of art that you can try at home. I'll even try to do the biggest slide I've done so far. Let me show you how it's done now. I can see from a different background. I'm on vacation now, so to avoid messing up the table, I'm going to cover it today. Never do it at home because I can clean my table easily compared to my really small station, which is that one. wide the canvas for today is quite large 50 by 30. that is what I bought at a local store it looks very good the color palette will be quite minimalist these will be the most important today black and white white titanium black ivory we have Amsterdam and liquitex and little artezas ultramarine blue and cobalt blue and titanium white again.

Now I was thinking about combining some

simple

technique

s, some of my absolute favorites, that means sliding, so we'll pour and slide a little bit and I know how much. I loved 3D

flower

s, so today I will combine those two techniques. It's not easy being away from home so all my equipment today will be quite unusual, so I've been mixing my paint in the cup, don't worry the cup is mine. I added just floatrol to my paint half and half just added a little bit of water here but it's still on the thick side so here comes a little bit of water look at this little one oops it was very stylish today.

I'll show you the consistency later. I actually added quite a bit of water. I hope you can. It's quite runny now as it runs off the spoon. Yes, what's the spoon. I feel like I'm about to drink this one, so I'm going to have some. each color and I'm going to put them in separate containers and then I'm going to add a couple of drops of silicone this is my white cream shows how much how much we need not that much I probably have to be sure that I'm covering the undertone that's enough now that i bought this is coconut hair serum, it's not coconut oil or milk, well it's called coconut milk but it's a dimethicone hair product so this will be my silicone replacement today hopefully.

I'll get a drop a little worried that I'll get too much one two, now I'm going to mix it in a foreign sec um. I have to cover a lot of surface. I realized, of course, that I didn't drink. I had my spatula with me, which is a mess, so I was looking in the cupboard for various utensils. I could use a knife, I bought this, it's not very useful and then I found something amazing, super old medical steel, this is going to be perfect, look. So, this is my spatula for today. I'm going to start with white and why do I want my partitions? um we're here this is all going to be white oh please be enough talking you know I don't have my self.

I don't have my equipment, so it really took me a long time. Oh, yes I have this little thing. Oh, it's very small but it works by opening the bubbles that spread black. Maybe I want a little more black, so I'm going to go down a little bit with my black. The medical tool is working. The paint is quite thin. Now I'm adding black with silicone somewhere here, but I'm going to add white with silicone on this side. What else do we need? We need a paper towel, just a regular paper towel, but I wet the edges.

I added water and since the canvas is quite large, I'm going to use two opposite sheets, place it very gently, we're ready to slide it on lovely, however, I also want that edge, so I'm going to touch it up here, part, oh my goodness . In fact, I can't believe it, I can't believe it, I forgot to add the blue. I was going to add blue, so I'll have to completely improvise. Now it will be black and white and we will add blue later. We are at this stage, now the paint is dry and I cleaned it.

Can you see those marks here? They are silicone. You often ask me how we remove silicone residue. I use isopropyl alcohol or a sponge with soap and water and that's what I did. time and then I clean it thoroughly and wash it. I have tons of cells. I didn't really expect so many and so small. I drew a

flower

. It's going to be a flower. I've never done one, but this is what I want, I feel like doing it now. I simply drew the flower roughly on a piece of paper. I don't even have baking paper.

Yes, I could go to the store and look for it, but once I'm in the mood, I want to create. I'm going to cut it out, place it in the painting and see if I like it or not, I'll come back once I cut out this ginormous flower and one of my petals is missing the end, so I'm going to attach the end and fix it. problem, the flower is going to cover the partition, which will look pretty good. I think that's the position I want my flower to be in. I found a 6B soft pencil, so I'm going to draw around it.

I'll show you once I'm done. the petals, can you see the lights? I don't have any texture paste available here and I don't have my heavy Liquitex plaster which I really like for that purpose so I'm using a multi-purpose fixative with acrylic paint and I'm hoping that gives me the right consistency Titanium White I'm not going to add much because I don't want it to be too runny really nice nice creamy I found a little cellophane bag. I know how you enjoyed the white flower video, which was a 3D paste. The first big flower is going to be even bigger and I'm planning on using a different color, so now I need to find a rubber band so I can start on one that's more hidden, partially hidden, which in my mind would be this one, nothing. pretty big, oh, that's pretty big, okay, let me start applying it like this, oh, it flows really well and this is the moment where I might change some of the design.

I have never made one this big and it is very satisfying. so now here I'm going to add a little bit more because I don't want this to get clogged or dry out. I think I'm going to put it in a jar or something to fill the petals inside. I'm going to use a paintbrush, actually you could even use a spatula, that's possible, but I think it's probably easier to use a paintbrush. You may want to try both. We need water to do it. I don't want this edge to be thick at all, so I'm spreading the paste outwards making some ridges in the center can make the petals a little more uneven.

All those lines, once it's dry, will be visible and I definitely want them. It doesn't matter that you can see that the background will be all painted. You see the lines. I want some. imperfections because this is what a real flower is supposed to look like when finished. Now I can do this one on top of this one that I want with a little bit of curved momentum slightly over nothing. I'll add a little more to fill the inside. I want this one to be a little bit thicker or a little bit higher, so I'm going to add more paste inside, but I'm going to add a little more paste here to make a weird impression on the raised area for the third one.

I think you can see this one. best on this speckled background I think this is probably, in my opinion, one of the most satisfying techniques and you know your own piping bag. It's very easy to do. I can not believe it. I just think I'll have to make pasta for one. just petal oh my goodness and I know there will be many of you doing similar work so could you send me a photo on Instagram? I would really appreciate it if you post it on social media and are inspired by my work. Thank you very much for mentioning me as a source of inspiration.

I think it is such a wonderful thing that people appreciate the sauce or the inspiration. What kind of flowers am I imagining as a

huge

flower? of the cosmos now I think I want a Big Blob in the middle I'm not sure if I wanted Soca let me spread it out it's big enough oh that's the stand it still has some face left and now how do I want my stem to look and then I will wait? It dried beautifully. I'm sure you remember I was going to add blue to the background and then strangely forgot.

Of course, I still have the mix. I'm going to add the blue using a brush, oh, that's very light. touch of blue I like it in the white but you know I don't do anything before, I'm the one who tries it the first time if something goes wrong or we'll do something else, in my opinion adding blue to anything will do it. It looks better, but it's just me here, we have cobblestone phylum ultramarine blue and I'm still not happy. I need a little more gray, but my gray is silver. I could add black, let's add a little bit of black, oh that's a lot, okay, try it.

What do you think? I want some blue behind my flowers. That was my intention in the first place, before I forgot what I was doing. I might add a little shadow here before applying the final color to my flower. I'm going to paint it white to make it all uniform and to eliminate the sections with the Peeping background. I'm going to paint the petals now. I want to make a kind of grayish beige tone. I have a white. a little black, even a little gold, maybe a drop of burnt umber. I'm not really sure what I'm looking for right now.

Let me put a little bit of white here, maybe a little bit of gold, we'll see that in the tattoos. It's good, no. Bad, I made the petals pretty uniform with the blues and beige and now I have a slightly darker tone with more symbols. A smaller brush for some details. A white pill. I think I'm going to paint around the center. with the same dog color or even more black Maybe black and blue. I'll use this color and then add some dots. Some I really want some points. Yes, it should be darker on this side because of the shadow and a little lighter on top.

I'm going to paint the middle part blue. I want just a quick layer, oh, like this, I want it to be covered because I'm going to add lighter sections, now some lighter spots and even lighter, Almost white, so I hope you enjoyed it if you did. I really would.
