Make No Mistake...Blooms are Tricky, Particularly for Beginners, but You’re Just Moments Away From the Missing Link...
It’s true what they’re saying about blooms...
There really is no other paint pouring technique like it!
But you have to learn to MASTER it
If you’ve already had a play with blooms, then you know what I’m talking
about.
From sourcing ingredients which actually WORK, to the preferred acrylics and pigments (and YES there ARE alternatives to those expensive TLP's!), to getting all those pesky ratios and consistencies just right. There's a lot to wrap your head around!
I signed up for Shelee Carruthers original course the moment it launched 4 years ago and was an original Admin. for the UK Facebook group. At that time I had been pouring for 4 years, having been a pioneer of pouring techniques in the UK. The struggle to source products which worked in the UK and EU was very real and the experimentation which ensued costly and extremely time-consuming.
The UK Facebook group was shut down by Shelee a few years ago, shortly after it became apparant that the ingredients we were using in the UK no longer worked after a major supplier changed a formulation. Along with other "bloomers" I spent another 18 months testing alternative ingredients before settling on the combination I use now.
And Don't Even Get Me Started on Getting to Grips with the actual Technique!
As an experienced veteran pourer it still took me a full 2 weeks of practising every day before I finally produced something I was happy with.
I had begun my own blooming journey and would progress from those first clumsy attempts to deliberate manipulations of the paint and eventually from frustration to a profound sense of accomplishment.
The Bloom Breakthrough...
Today, I am regarded by other fluid artists as one of the top "bloomers" in the UK. I have won awards and sell my finished pieces in several fine art galleries. Students fly in from all over the world for personal lessons with me or attend sessions virtually via zoom. I am regularly asked to demonstrate and teach internationally, but due to health issues am forced to decline. Blooms have literally changed my artistic journey like no other painting process. For me, my personal journey underlined the irreplaceable value of learning from someone who doesn't just understand the technique, but lives it and I want the same for you.
Here's How I Can Help...
Private Lesson Outside Your Budget?
Due to demand, for the past 3 years I've only offered private lessons with the occasional workshop for private events. A private lesson with me in my studio is the optimal way to learn but I completely understand the cost for some is prohibitive.
Choosing an ebook as a learning format over YouTube videos can offer several distinct advantages, especially for complex subjects like the Bloom Technique.
There were a number of reasons I settled on the format of an ebook:
1. Structured Learning Path
-
Ebooks provide a coherent structure, guiding learners through a progressive path from basic to more advanced concepts. This structured approach helps in building a solid foundation before moving on to more complex ideas.
-
YouTube Videos, while valuable, can be fragmented and vary greatly in quality and depth. It might be challenging to find a series that offers a comprehensive and logically sequenced learning experience.
2. Detailed Explanations and Nuance
-
Ebooks often delve deeper into the theory, history, and nuances of a technique, offering detailed explanations and insights that videos might not fully convey due to time constraints.
-
Videos might demonstrate techniques effectively but can sometimes skim over the finer points or the "why" behind certain methods, which can be crucial for a thorough understanding.
3. Convenience and Accessibility
-
Ebooks are highly portable and can be accessed on multiple devices, from e-readers to smartphones, without the need for an internet connection once downloaded. This makes learning possible anywhere, anytime.
-
Videos require a stable internet connection for streaming, which might not be convenient or available in all situations.
4. Pacing and Personalisation
-
Ebooks allow readers to learn at their own pace, easily revisiting sections as needed for reinforcement or skipping ahead if they're already familiar with certain topics.
-
Video content moves at a set pace, which might not match every learner's speed or learning style. Pausing and rewinding can help, but it's not as seamless as flipping through a book.
5. Interactive Elements
-
I've included hyperlinks throughout the e-book to some of my own videos as well as videos of Youtubers who's knowledge is sound. This makes a more dynamic and engaging learning experience.
6. Focus and Minimised Distractions
-
Reading an ebook tends to demand more focused attention, minimising distractions and promoting deeper engagement with the content.
-
Watching videos on platforms like YouTube can introduce distractions, such as advertisements, recommended videos, and the temptation to browse other content, which might detract from the learning experience.
The Missing Manual?
And now it’s your turn to start on your own blooming journey
"Step-by-Step to the Bloom Technique" is the result of my 9 years pouring experience, (4 of those blooming) and 20+ years of teaching. It's everything I wish had been included with the original course and is YOUR shortcut to creating stunning blooms far quicker than you can imagine and without all the hassle.
So I'm Including...
Some Special FREE
Bonuses!
Bonus #1
YOUR "PERSONAL POURING PLANNER"
12 pages of "super usefulness" to take notes, record recipes, make your own paint swatches and write your art journal.
For easy reference there's also a consistency gauge for your drip tests, goal-setting sheets and a weekly agenda + MUCH MORE!
Print off individual pages as required if you don't want to print out the entire planner.
Value = £17
+
Bonus #2
"PRICING YOUR WORK" VIDEO
Calculating how to price your work is a complicated subject and one which generally causes much debate in artistic circles. While I'm always mindful that all my students are approaching this topic from various angles I give you solid fundamentals so you can make an informed decision.
This BONUS video, which you can access immediately upon purchase accompanies Chapter 18 of the e-book and walks you through some real-life pricing examples.
Value = £39.00
+
Bonus #3
"VARNISHING YOUR WORK" VIDEO
A 15 min. video tutorial to accompany Chapter 15 of your e-book. Lots of my students previously struggled with varnishing particularly around visible brush-strokes and "bald spots". So, in this lesson I pull back the curtain on exactly how I finish off the majority of my bloom pours for a professional finish.
The varnish I use when applied how I demonstrate in this video gives a high sheen finish with a similar look to resin and resaturates all the colours which have a tendancy to dull-down during the curing process. Essential viewing!
Value = £39
Bonus #4
"KICKING YOU OUT OF YOUR COMFORT ZONE" VIDEO
Whenever we take on a NEW challenge, even if it's something we really WANT to do - our minds and bodies will RESIST the change.
This is completely natural.
It's how we're designed to react to the unknown...but if we don't learn to overcome the emotions that can come with that resistance - they can end up ruling us and stop us from GROWING. This video is for those times when it feels like you're never going to master the technique and want to give up...because you're not in this on your own.
Value = £39.00

Bonus #5
