Step-by-step tutorial for easy, consistent dendrite fractals in varying sizes and styles using a “mystery“ liquid, acrylic inks, India ink, fluid acrylics and regular acrylic paint. See how to create beautiful snowflake - like patterns in any color. ♦️ For frequently asked questions about making fractals, I made a follow-up video : ✨Join my Facebook group: ____________________________________ SOME EASY WAYS TO HELP KEEP VIDEOS COMING : 🔹 Contributing for supplies: 🔸🔸Being a monthly patron (this includes rewards like EXCLUSIVE videos!😄🎉) : 🔹 Amazon wishlist (some things are realistic, some are a dream 😄): ______________________________________ -=- FOR THESE FRACTALS I USED : ▪️— For the white background I used Artist Loft Flow Acrylic White from Michaels as the background... but ANY white acrylic paint seems to work (I tried at least 4 brands too, including Liquitex Basics and DecoArt Americana Titanium White with similar results). Liquitex Basics Titanium White: ▪️— The colors I used for the fractals : Liquitex Acrylic Ink - Deep Violet Golden Fluid Acrylic - Quinacridone Magenta DecoArt Media Fluid Acrylic - Titanium White (to make colors more pastel ... not for the background) Dr. Ph. Martin's Bombay India Ink - Teal Liquitex Acrylic Ink set of 3 primaries : Golden Fluid Acrylic set of 10 : Dr. Ph. Martin's Bombay India Ink set of 12 : ▪️91 % Isopropyl Alcohol ▪️“Mystery product“ ... watch the video to see what it is 😊 -=- My white background paint was mixed using my regular fluid painting mix: - 1 - 2 parts paint to 4 parts Floetrol Floetrol : - I then add a little water if necessary to get my paint to be the consistency of really warm honey, or like heavy cream. The amount of water will depend on the type of acrylic paint you used ... Flow acrylic (runny like house paint) will need very little water if any, while medium to heavy body paint (thick like toothpaste) will need more water. Try to limit the amount of water that you use ... too much will break down the binding properties of the acrylic paint. How much is too much? Try to keep the amount of water under 50% of the amount of paint. -=- Once my paintings dry, I spray them with a low odor, user-friendly, crystal clear, museum-quality varnish designed for acrylics, oils and watercolors. It gives a glossy finish. Here is a link: When I want to spray a matte/satin finish instead, I use this: Thank you in advance for watching the videos, sharing them, commenting and leaving a thumbs up. Your kindness helps my channel continue and it is all greatly appreciated! May the alcohol inks, resin, and paints be kind, and may the pours be with you. 😊💕
