I couldn’t let this series pass me by without also doing an open cup! So today I am doing just that – PLUS I haven’t kept a note of what colors each pot was so it’s going to be a massive surprise too.

Ooolala she’s a beauty ❤
Bellissimo
Another beautiful painting Mark, thank you for sharing. Can you see the birds head on left-hand side looking from my view.
I love how those pearls popped! However, I especially loved how we (and you) didn't know what colors were being used. You not only made a beautiful creation, but I loved the element of surprise!! Thank you. Denise ❤
Really great pour, Mark! Great job, and I love that you weren't sure which colors you had. The lack of unknown makes it a little fun. Good job!
Amazing!! Love those pearl paints. Always a surprise when it dries. Love how they blended. Thank you so much for sharing.
🎉🎉🎉les couleurs sont magnifiques une fois séchés….je vais essayé avec enamel de decoart, un peu à la dernière jo,comme inspiration…..bravo❤❤❤, jamais déçu par tes échanges….mais j'ai rien gagné avec ton jeu….grrrrr!!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 a très vite.
Mark this is lovely very ethereal, I’m glad you’ve done an open cup with these paints, I’m defo going to try this. 😍😍
Very sweet piece of work. Love the pearlescents!❤
Yay, at last an open cup with these paints, I like this one the best. You certainly had a better result than I did in my video, congratulations 😊
Hello Mark!! I'm always happy when I see a new video from you. 😁💞 When I listen you, it's my moment of peace. I see the paint create the beautiful piece. 🥰
This piece is gorgeous. I love the design, the negative piece. I love the many perles on the bottom of the canevas. The dry result is amazing.
It's like a beautiful cloud on the night sky with the full moon reflexion.
🤗💯👏👏👏👏👏👏❤❤
at 4:25 I see a white dove…
Once again a stunning piece.
Hurray for total free style … and no fair trying to take a sneaky peek! This is just stunning. I always love a black background and black free space. This couldn't have come out more gorgeous.
And remember – no sneaky peeking🤭
Just gorgeous! Mark I did a painting on dioxin purple and the colors reacted well. The purple made them stand out differently than the black. Sorry I can’t post it as I do not have a channel. You and Molly’s Artistry have inspired me to do more of these. ❤
A courageous pour ! It is amazing Mark. There is so much to see and gaze upon…. 🙏
What a lovely surprise 😊
Love it! Is gorgeous ❤
Just beautiful! I love a black background, but do you think a different dark color for the background would work? Like a dark blue, green, dark red? Magenta? I love seeing how these paints develop when they dry. It's always a surprise! Thanks Mark! Looking forward to the next video😍
Mark, I really, really, love this! When I was a girl my first plane trip was at night down the US Eastern Sea Board! We were flying above the clouds during a thunderstorm! This reminds me of that! The clouds appeared in different colors! Gorgeous!
Its beautiful!!
I love the open cup pour, especially with the pearl paints! I will definitely try this one😁
I love those pearl paints. So pretty! Love from NB Canada!
Mark thi is so beautiful.
It definitely has cosmic vibes! Just beautiful
Hi Mark, your open cup is a beauty. I love the softness of it and how your colors mixed. Mine was pastel with pearls as well, but yours is much more colorful,
This is my Favorite of yours, it reminds me of black opals so unique and beautiful.
This is phenomenal. I think of the Clouds of Mt Olympus 🤷🏻♀️ 😂 maybe I need some sleep … but God-like clouds, dream clouds… just stunning.
Wow Mark..that is so pretty. It reminds me of a rainbow shining thru the clouds. So delicate! 😁😘
This is what I imagine an angel's aura to look like… very peaceful and calming. Beautiful x
Molto bene
Cosmic😊
Absolutely beautiful! Thank you so much for the inspiration.
Beautiful ❤️. I will try 😊it
This is one of my favorites!! I love the purple edges on the one side that looks like ridges on top of ridges; I love the subtle rainbow inside the piece; also love all those little pearls. Wonderful piece.
Beautiful, Beautiful !!
This is an amazing creation, Mark!!! Very special ❤❤❤
This is beautiful!! Can you share what your PM is? Thank you 😊
Sooo beautiful, love it..🥰
