They say necessity is the mother of invention, and it's so true! I really wanted to paint and make some SheleeArt blooms, but I was out of my Glidden Essentials house paint and Home Depot was out of stock too. So I tried Glidden Premium Semi-Gloss paint instead. When I opened the can and transferred 4 cups into my measuring cup, I noticed it was much thinner than my Glidden Essentials (and yep, I gave it a really good stir first!). So, what to do when you want to paint NOW instead of decanting and waiting several hours or a day for the paint to thicken up? This hack may help you! Please note I did not change the consistency of my pouring medium, or the consistency of my cell activator. The only difference is the thinner base (house) paint that goes on the canvas first. I was really impressed with the dried result--so incredibly shiny!--that I will definitely let the Glidden Premium thicken up and try in again as usual without the hack. I hope you find this useful!
Apologies for the weird background noise--those are the BroodX cicadas!!
I post 2 videos regularly each week--one on Tuesday and one on Saturday. Both will air around 3:00 PM US east coast time. Occasionally you'll get a bonus video for premieres and collaborations--but Tuesdays and Saturdays are firm. xoxo --Karen
