"Howdy Olga, I am thrilled to have taken this course. The quality, the quantity and overall information was truly priceless. The amount I learned and learned what I was doing wrong, has been so welcoming. I am a die hard for you, your creative mind and creative work. I loved learning the layering method. Once you explained it in details. The light bulb went off for me and it made so much more sense, why my paintings were lacking cells. This is a game changer. I also loved all the little extra tips and tricks, to make sure your consistency of the paints are the same. Can’t wait to try it out with your handy template. The demonstrations on layering, the techniques and just overall everything, was extremely helpful. I cannot WAIT to put everything I learned into action. I feel some master pieces are on their way, from my mind and your lessons, to the canvas. My deepest gratitude for your research, time, money, dedication and creating a class to help your creative friends, be the best they can be. Sincerely, One of your biggest fans"

"There are so many positive things I could say about Olga and this program. Your energy alone is inspiring! I especially love the details that are not even highlighted that make your videos stand out and look professional. Your studio, your presentation, the preparation that goes into each video, editing out all the unnecessary clips (respecting your viewer's time), even doing your hair and make up shows you are here to make a BIG presence! The quality is par with courses like Master Class. And your smile and your wink make it feel personal and fun. All that is just the canvas behind the art you present with such skill and magnetism! I love the science behind your recipes and how you demonstrate your technique with simple clear instructions. I hope to have the honor of meeting you at an art fair or something someday so I can thank you in person and get your autograph! Bravo!"

- Kevin R. - 

"This course is the best thing I have done!!! I am VERY new to acrylic paint pouring and I have loved loved loved your style from the first video I watched!!! Beautiful vibrant colors and flowing “petals” or “flowers” and cells concentrated more in the middle! I feel so blessed to learn how to do it myself! So…first step was buying paints last week, as well as the Pebeo PM and Golden GG…i got my shipment in this afternoon and I have started mixing paints!!!! Wooohoooo!!! I LOVE all the colors I got and am having a difficult time deciding what to mix….so I am doing ALOT of mixing! Hahaha!! I cant wait to paint!!!"

- Leette D. - 

"Absolutely everything in this course has inspired me to not give up! I was so frustrated that sometimes my paintings come out beautiful with no flaws, and other times they are a mess! Olga, you have addressed each thing I needed to understand in order to achieve my painting goals. I especially like learning how to layer the colors, #1 & #2; It makes so much sense. You delivered each lesson in a concise, very information and very positive way. Your joy of painting and sharing your passion for art shines through with everything you do. Thank you for creating this course!"

- Amy C. - 

"I never understood the science behind the cell creation when watching other artists create their fluid art. But thanks to your course, I have now learned how to use my other brand paints using silicone oil for practice ,while investing in Group 1 and 2 brand paints with your secret recipe mixes to create beautiful high quality artwork! By showing the difference in the finished results, I can sell and promote your course through my affiliate link to show people what a difference it makes to learn from you and really take our artwork to another level!! Thank you Olga!"

- Beta G. - 

"Hi Soby, Thank you so much for sharing your recipes and all the techniques in your course. It is very helpful on how to start just one technique without getting overwhelmed by the information you shared, you are an amazing artist. Always grateful for including us to learn your techniques. I do want to meet you sometime in my journey as an artist. Your smile is infectious and never loose it. Thank you for being available to me."

- Indira Y. - 

"By taking this course, I finally am able to achieve the effects I have wanted in my art work. Tons of beautiful cells in just the places I wanted them! The colors are blending so beautiful now and I can't Thank you enough for being an outstanding teacher and guide to fluid art for me. You truly have a gift and thanks for sharing it!"

- Shirley H. - 

"Hi Olga, This course has been revolutionary for me. I'm so glad that I signed up. Thankyou so much for putting in all the knowledge and skills thayou have given us. It is hard to say what was the best thing about the course. The pouring medium recipe and the two different paint groups are at the top for me. Thank you once again,."

- Gay F - 

"The best part of this course is listening to you explain the complex parts and making it make sense. I didn’t know anything about paint or painting and now I do, thanks to you."

- Christina R. - 

"I can’t say what my favorite part was…perhaps your secret recipes. I was so enthralled with all the lessons. Your knowledge and expertise are so inspiring. Thank you for your encouragement to all who aspire to keep experimenting with the wonderful art form of fluid art. I am so mesmerized with the freedom of expression and excitement that I feel with this medium. You are an excellent teacher. Thank you so much!"

- Linda K. - 

"Olga, your creativity brings learning to life! I have tried many things with the acrylic pours. I have spent much time and had many attempts to create art. You have helped me begin the search to become my own artist. Your inspiration means everything to me when I consider where I would be had I never had this opportunity. Thanks for everything! This was such a great course!"

- Dawn C. - 

"Hi Olga! You were actually my very first fluid artist I found online almost 2 years ago -- you inspired me to think "maybe I can do this type of painting!" I have found so much joy in learning this style of painting, and am constantly amazed at your techniques, style, teaching and artwork! I bought the New Recipe Course and it is INCREDIBLE! I can't wait to test it out and see how my abilities grow! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and for making what felt like the impossible, possible (and as a science nerd, I absolutely love how you provided such easy guidance for making the new recipe!). Thank you!!!!"

- Whitney D. - 

"Hi Olga, what an amazing difference your secret recipe has made for me! I did 3 paintings yesterday; they are all vibrant with color, the compositions were so much easier than I had ever done before - they flowed so beautifully! I did add a this little piggy in twinkle and a stuck up pig in pompous. Those added some real bling to my works. Thank you so much, this has taken me to a whole different level! With dependable results!!!"

- Tammy A. - 

" I only wish I took your class months ago. I just did 2 test paintings and they already look better than anything I did previously. I love the recipe and layering modules. I am going to re-watch the modules again, there was a lot of good info! Thank you! Jon"

- Jon I. - 

"I am so glad I decided to take the online courses. I have learned so much. I was getting very frustrated doing this on my own and I was so happy to finally see that Olga started teaching these courses. Now I am getting a lot better, so thank you Olga for doing this. I am still learning but It will get better with time and practice."

- Marline R. - 

"Hi Olga, thank you for turning my world of painting in 180 degrees. After seeing 100s You Tube videos from other artists, this course gave me more understanding of the basics. You have to learn the them in order to move on. Thank you for sharing your experience."

- Kathy K. - 

"Ms. Soby, The course blew my mind. It was obviously well-planned. You explained clearly; the handout will be invaluable; you didn't appear rushed; and you didn't make me feel like you were inconvenienced when you provided recipes and procedures. (Yes, I've felt like that in paid fluid art courses before.) My mom majored in biology and chemistry, and your course would have totally fascinated her. I decided to watch it through and take notes next time around - I've been taking notes on your videos for a long time. The first good painting, once the ingredients are delivered by the art supply store, will be worth every penny of the course. I think it was worth the wait. (Or weight - or density - as the case may be.)"

- Rebekah C. - 

"I have just finished watching your entire presentation for the first time. I was impressed with your technique, .and was really surprised at the components you used. It was so much good information that I will watch it a second or third time, taking notes. But, I will also have to invest in many of the products because several things I do not have. I will anxiously await their arrival to try your technique. I hope, with practice, I can create canvases that are as beautiful as yours."

- Carol S. - 

"Thank you Olga. Every beginning pour artist needs to take your course. You explain everything so perfect. I have watched hundreds of videos before but you really helped me understand all the concepts of acrylic pouring. My favourite part in your test sheet. It is full proof, easy to use and a must have. Thank you again and congratulation on everything you have accomplished."

- Mireille B. - 

"I am so glad I took this course, because I have tried so hard to figure out how to make,
beautiful art with nothing more than watching a million videos. The biggest problem was the viscosity and density of the mediums after the paint was added. I don't think I
could have ever got it right without you."

- Kathy P. - 

"Thank you Olga! I have been experimenting with fluid art for about 2 years and finally took this course! It is so important to understand your mediums and how they work. The most helpful part of this course for me is definitely understanding the 2 groups. I wasn't grasping why or how certain effects were taking place before, and now that you have shared your knowledge, I am so excited to create again. I cannot thank you enough for your insight!"

- Danielle M. - 

"Hi OLGA!!
I MUST SAY your ACADEMY training is ABOVE AND BEYOND even collegiate art courses out there!
I'm a brand NEW ARTIST and have never touched paint prior to unsuccessfully trying pouring three months ago. OLGA anyone can create a course and disclose how and what they do but YOU go BEYOND because you teach the WHYs and HOWS of painting , the nuances of outcomes and you do it with an INCREDIBLE GENEROUS SPIRIT of SHARING!
I'm waiting for the PPM to arrive and then I will begin putting into use everything you've taught.
Well I mean I'll have your videos on while I'm attempting to do it! Lol I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND that BEFORE ANYONE ATTEMPTS POUR PAINTING they buy and watch every video in this academy program. It will save them from wasting money on paint only to get pours that don't work out as I did.
"

- Donna D. - 

"Olga! You’re a fabulous teacher! I have been watching you create for a long time. When you had this course available, I couldn’t wait to take it and learn from you! I took notes and learned so much I did not know. My first painting 6 years ago was a fluke that I couldn’t replicate, and no matter how hard I tried, it never turned out the right way ever again. I was so frustrated. I just didn’t have the time to investigate how or why. So I decided to try again, but this time, I wanted to learn, and purposely slowed myself down. This saved me so much in every way, that I am SO grateful! I cannot wait to to go back and do the mixing and get started with all that I have learned. I will be rewatching for awhile! My favorite part of your teaching is watching your examples put into practice, from mixing to techniques. Your organization of every aspect was so appreciated and incredibly helpful. Step-by-step including the products listed by link helped immensely! Thank you, thank you, thank you!❤️ "

- Jennifer E. - 

"Olga! Oh My God! The lessons I learned from purchasing your course was incredible. I tried painting 3 years ago and lost interest soon after trying it out, because nothing I did turned out right. The money that I spent on supplies added up and I couldn't afford it any longer with bad results. Watching your course showed me that all you need is the correct way to make your pouring medium and the correct way to look at the paint bottles to show you how to look for the Transparency of each paint you buy. WOW!!!!!! Just WOW! That is a lesson I never knew existed. I will for sure now be checking all the paint that I purchase to know what group to put them in. I could keep going on and on about what I have all learned just from your course but it would take up to much time.......I can't thank you enough for this wonderful course. "

- Joanie S. - 

"You did an outstanding job on this course! I am thrilled I took it. I will definitely encourage others to take it. Thank you so much for all the effort, time and money you invested in this. I appreciate it. You did a great job. Thankful,"

- Jane B. - 

" Hi Olga,
Thank you so much for putting together this wonderful new Course. It was easy to follow and understand. Also so very helpful.
You all inspired me back then to start this amazing journey I have been on.
I completed the Smart Arts Course the 3 of you had put together and found it inspirational and helpful back then.
This new Course of yours has been eye opening and again inspiring.
I have struggled with consistency over my journey, so this portion of your course has been exceptionally helpful.
You are an amazing artist and teacher.
Thank you again for allowing me/us to follow your artistic journey and to learn from you.
Big Hugs"

- Lisa G. - 

" Hi Olga. All I can say is WOW! I've been on the sidelines admiring the lovely results of fluid art painting. I wanted so much to get started on my own fluid art journey but I lacked the confidence that I could create the beautiful fluid art paintings I saw on YouTube. Mainly because there were so many ways suggested about how to create cells and lacing. Once I saw your beautiful work and I learned of your course, I knew this was the way to go. I am a person of structure and once I'm provided with a structured way of doing something, I can run with it. Now that I've completed your excellent online course, I have the confidence I need to get started. I loved everything about your course, especially how you structured it. I'd say you included everything you need to know about how to create beautiful fluid art paintings, from A to Z! Thank you so much!"

- Phyllis M. - 

" I loved the course. I’m new at fluid painting so all it was inspiring but I truly appreciate the way you explained in detail your recipe and how to use it. Especially on how to get cell reaction and where to have cells on my paintings. To be able to plan where to have cells on a painting is amazing. I’m excited to know my paintings now will not crack. I’ve been enjoying your YouTube channel for about a year now. Please continue on so I can continue to learn your stunning style and techniques. Thanks again!"

- Beth L. - 

"Hello Olga, I just want to say a very big thank for this course that you have provided. It has been fantastic and such a big eye opener for me. I have learnt so much from you on this course, not just the secret recipe but also paint density, layering paints and much more. I have had so many failed attempts in the past and now with your teaching and knowledge I am creating art that looks like how I want if to look. I gave a present to someone today and the lady was over the moon and loved the colours too. The colours would have been muddy and not so bright if it wasn't for learning from you. I highly recommend that everyone doing acrylic pours signs up to do your course. It is perfect. "

- Donna P. - 

" Olga! Your course was absolutely wonderful! Thank you so much for the details on the chemistry, the explanation of the all the different formulas. You are so smart and a true Artist to have figured out your own formula. I can only imagine how much work went into it.
I was so excited I went through the entire course in one day and took notes. Now I will go back through and make sure that I understand all the concepts. I have been studying and practicing for about a year and was still struggling. I LOVE the dutch pours! I cannot seem to get control of the direction of the blowout.
I feel like I finally have some clear guidelines, so I can feel more confident. I loved all the parts, now I am ready to begin again. I feel like I have been looking for this type of art all of my life. I know that sounds corny but it feels good to finally feel passionate about something. 😊 Blessings to you and Happy Pouring."

- Kimberly S. - 

" Hi Olga,
Was hesitant I would not gain enough knowledge for the price of the course vs watching YouTube videos of others sharing their pouring recipes including your older videos. The reason I took the leap, it came down to myself trying a number of different recipes and unable to obtain the results like yours.
Not only did you teach your pouring recipe, you provided the scientific reasoning (mind blower), how to determine groups 1 and 2 and how they work together vs separately, need supplies along with alternatives that work with your recipe along with what doesn’t work, demonstrated how to work with pouring, and so much more.
My confidence level was a 2 before your course and it jumped up to 7 after finishing it. Will be a 10 when able to create art work like yours, which will take time and practice.
Thank you again for helping me more than you may know!"

- Maria M. - 

"Thank You Olga for taking the time to make this course! It has been so helpful to me with learning the best way to mix my paints and what brands to use. Thank you for taking the time to come up with your own recipe and sharing it with us. Ever since I started watching your videos, using your group #1 and group #2, and practicing your techniques I think I might actually be able to make a painting now."

- Amanda H. - 

"Olga, I used your recipes yesterday for the first time and oh my goodness, there are no cracks or major imperfections! I’m in love! Thank you! I’m just a beginner and have a lot to learn."

- Evelyn H. - 

"Hell Olga, This was an enjoyable journey into mastering fluid acrylic art. Your videos through your TouTube channel encouraged me to give this type of art a real try. What I like most of the course is knowing how to layer colors, your step-by-step explanation, the way you encourage us to try, how the course was set up (very informative and detailed), and of course knowing abount the paint groups. This will definitely be a game changer for me after dabbling with fluid paint. Thank you and happy creating!"

- Odessa - 

"Olga you are amazing! My favorite part of this course was learning the science of how to layer colors and how to create a composition. Watching your YT videos really has changed for me! I now know why you choose to put certain colors in certain places. It has helped me with my own art as well! Your advice of "take the time to get to know your product" was such a eye opener for me. For example, right now, I like using the paint brand that I use! So with your help, I took the time to know that brand, play with the material, and learn how to create a formula that works for me right now! Thank you!!"

- Ashley T. - 

"Totally blown away by the high level of this course. I reluctantly purchased the course for the recipe but got so much more than just the recipe. I have been doing fluid art for 4 years and had no idea about density and layering. What makes me even happier is that I can purchase all the ingredients in my country. I finished this course in 3 sittings (instead of working :). Thank you Olga."

- Lisa E. - 

"Hi Olga, It was amazing how much I learnt from this course! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you so very much! The way you explain everything makes so easy to understand the entire process! I am from Bulgaria myself, and move to the United States 20 years ago. During COVID 19 I started watching videos and getting more familiar with acrylics. Just loved the reaction of different colours, and I felt in love with abstract acrylic paintings. After taking the course I figured out that I know nothing. Just was lucky to create some beautiful results, and to be able to sell the paintings.Thank you so very much again!"

- Valia S. - 

"Thank you Olga! Thank you for sharing your expertise! I am so very glad I took your course! I only discovered fluid art about 2 months ago - have been obsessed ever since - but to date I don't really have any completed artworks work keeping. (lol) It's such a simple concept, but oh-so-much trickier to execute well than one would think. You do it masterfully! Your course is faultless... both descriptive and concise. The information you share is invaluable, and your delivery of the content is immaculate, and very heartfelt. You have given me the opportunity to create some artworks that I will be proud to hang on my wall (hopefully =). I can't wait to receive my order of quality paints, gel and PM and get started using your techniques. Thank you again for sharing your knowledge. =)!"

- Victoria J. - 

"Hi Olga, Thank you so much for this super comprehensive course. I had been experimenting with different paint pour recipes and techniques before. I had created some 'nice' or 'interesting' art, but nothing stunning. After completing this course, I did my first dutch pour using soby recipes and layering technique. Without a doubt it is the best piece I have created, and its all thanks to the things i learned here in your fluid mastery course. Actually, I gifted it to my mum for mothers day and she loves it so much she wants me to do another one but bigger. (much bigger, like 48 x 36 inch) OMG! (any tips for working with a canvas that big?) Thanks again"

- Michelle W. - 

"Thank you so much for this amazing course. Learning about different density and viscosity was huge for me. Next was layering your paints with that knowledge made a huge difference in my painting. Your teaching was superb. Thank you so very much."

- Peggy K. - 

"This is the best I´ve ever done. Your teaching is superb and I loved every moment of the course. Thank you ever so much for your excellent teaching."

- Gunbritt D. - 

"Thank you Olga, you are such an inspiration!! Learned a lot about paint density and layering. Thank you"

- Anu P. - 

"I am absolutely impressed with the depth, and clarity of the content. The lessons were well-structured and the practical examples helped me understand complex concepts with ease. Olga, you were fantastic—your expertise and engaging teaching style made the learning experience both enjoyable and effective. I feel much more confident and prepared in this subject area thanks to this course. Highly recommended."

- Jeanette S. - 

"Hello !! I don't know who will see this but I am writing to thank the most inspiring online teacher I have ever seen, Olga. The amazing Olga! I am so HAPPY I have signed-up for her online class, I cannot even begin to tell you!! I have been struggling and I mean STRUGGLING for MONTHS with Floetrol, silicone, GAC 800, JoSonja, and all kinds of weird and weirder stuff. I was feeling like a witch in a cave preparing all these weird mixes and concoctions... And I never got any 'okay' results. Now? Things WORK! And they work BEAUTIFULLY!! That first hair dryer try with a "short and confident movement" (as she says) ... I will never forget it!! It was like magic!! Of course, I will need TONS and TONS of practice.. I am nowhere NEAR what Olga is able to do but for the first time ever since I started pouring, I am having FUN !!! A LOT OF FUN!!! And I will have fun with this for years to come!! I am so SO grateful !!! So THANK YOU, Olga ! I am so grateful !! I am looking forward to practicing more and more!!!"

- Scilla C. - 

"Olga! I can’t even begin to tell you how grateful I am for your course! A few years ago, I tried acrylic pouring just for fun after stumbling upon a video on YouTube. I was hooked instantly, and my first painting turned out great! But then... DISASTER. No matter how many times I tried to recreate that first success, all I got was mud. I wasted so much paint, so many canvases. I decided that I wasn't cut out for it.

Then, by some miracle, I found your Youtube videos. I was very hesitant to pay for a course because I’d already watched HUNDREDS of videos on youtube and thought I’d seen it all. But I loved your results and deicded to take a chance, and WOW... just WOW! Your layering technique was a TOTAL GAME-CHANGER for me. Now, I finally GET IT. I finally understand how to get those beautiful cells and what I was doing wrong all this time. I only wish I had found you sooner!

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU! I’m over the moon with my results! And guess what? I just got a COMMISSION from a colleague! I’m so excited to keep creating, and I owe it all to you, Olga. You’ve given me the tools to turn my passion into something truly special."

- Susan M. - 

"I was fascinated by the science of paint density and how to use it to create the effects that I desire. I prefer the look of just blended paint most of the time, now I know how to achieve that without being disappointed by cells appearing in places that I don't want. I was also appreciative of the insight into your creative thought process. This course was a great investment into my own creativity."

- Barbara P. - 

"Hi Olga, This was truly the best online class that I’ve done! I recently got into fluid art a year back and your YouTube videos played a huge part in inspiring me to explore this art form! I’m so glad I took this course, it has helped me learn so many new tips and techniques. The very first fluid Dutch pour I did with your technique and recipe was hands down the best piece that I had ever done. Thank you for creating such an amazing art course! ♥️♥️"

- Saloni L. - 

"Thank you so much for this wonderful course! I have learned so much. Here are the things that I appreciated in your course: 1) The joy and passion and thoroughness with which you teach this course. 2) The importance of the density of different paints and the science about it. 3) The examples of your different techniques and hacks was amazing! 4) Even though I have been doing fluid art for several years on and off, I was happy that I learned so much. Thank you again"

- Gloria O. - 

"Thank you so much for this wonderful course. You have really put a lot of work into developing your techniques. My favorite part was clarifying the density dilemma. You really nailed the technique giving me the skills to be an artist."

- Nancy - 

"Oooooh my goodness! I learned so much from the getgo, & I’ve been doing fluid art for 2 years! I realized what a science it is, & just how much I didn’t know. I’m revamping my entire format, & can’t wait to see the results. Thank you so ,UC Olga for sharing your brilliance & foresite with me & others. You’re my “shero”!"

- Ericka M. - 

"This has been an excellent course. I am a photographer and wanted to take a dive into fluid art. Watching YouTube vids, I came across your channel. It was exactly what I was looking for. Then I purchased your course, it answered every question and more. To be honest, I have purchased other courses in photography and yours was the only one I did to completion. Something about this art form just keeps calling me. I am almost ready to start mixing, pouring and putting my ideas rolling in my head on canvas. Thank you for you course and knowledge!"

- David A. - 

"Your courses have saved me so much time, money, and frustration! I am always blown away by how methodical and in-depth you are--and I find myself referring to them again and again. Honestly, I hadn't a clue about how to resin, so it was all great. But learning the importance of preparing your workspace, how to measure and warm the resin, and your application methods were my biggest "Ah-ha!" moments. Instead of purchasing huge bottles of resin and using wooden stir sticks, I'll be starting small and investing in a few tools. While YouTube videos can be great for inspiration, your courses provide the knowledge for success! You truly understand the beginning artist who longs for the guidance of a professional."

- Sandra N. - 

"Hi Olga, thank you so much for such an enjoyable and enlightening course. I had been on a couple of local workshops on Dutch pouring and watched loads of YouTube videos but just couldn’t create anything like it myself. Your recipes and paint groups changed all that and although I still have lots to learn, I now feel equipped to enjoy the journey. I also love your teaching style, full of enthusiasm and positivity - you are so inspiring. Thank you so much"

- Christine I. - 

"I have absolutely loved going through this course with you. I am still waiting on some supplies arriving to start practicing what you have taught us, but now that I have the knowledge of how and why it works I feel I will be able to start creating some wonderful art. You are an excellent teacher with a lovely style of teaching. Your knowledge is second to none and your commitment to teaching us to be the best artists we can be is wonderful. Thank you so much for giving us this course. It has truly been inspirational."

- Alison M. - 

"Thank you Olga! I'm a beginner, but I've already spent a lot of money on materials that will not be as useful as I thought they would be! I wish I'd bought your course first - it would actually have saved me money! I'll still do a few experiments "

- Ann C. - 

"I've been pouring since 2017 so I had figured out many things. The things I enjoyed most were the details about your recipe, and the science behind it. It was like starting from scratch in a lot of ways for me because the paint moved differently than I was used to. It's obvious how much time and effort you put into this before putting out this course. I'm extremely grateful to have been able to purchase 🙌"

- Malisa W. - 

"I started dutch pour awhile ago and really loved it. And, I have been watching your videos and learning from you for years, but it was not enough. I have wasted so much money on paints and canvases trying to get the right consistency and layering. Also didn't work, so that made me stop doing dutch pour. Then, I decided to take the class. IT WAS MY BEST DECISION EVER. Thank you so so much for sharing this valuable information with us. You made me want to continue and create amazing art again. I highly recommend beginners to take the class."

- Gaidaa A. - 

"Absolutely amazing how detailed and helpful this course was! I am so glad to have found it in the very early stages of my acrylic pouring journey and I will be using this methodology and recipes from now. Thank you so much for such valuable information and a very well organized, insightful course!"

- Henriett - 

"The consistency standard and test sheet are a game changer for me! Of course, your recipes are great and I can see just after one day that the drying effects are also more consistent. You have given me the confidence to try, and there’s no greater gift than that. Thank you Olga."

- Katarzyna B. - 

"Hi Olga. I just finished the last lesson and my notebook is well filled. I'm waiting for the delivery of the latest products for the preparation of the mediums and I'm embarking on the artistic adventure! All these lessons were clear, some more technical than others but essential to understand the process. The techniques are really well presented and very pleasant to watch. You are always smiling: a real happiness! Thank you for sharing your secrets. A French fan"

- Catherine C. - 

"Hi Olga. I have just finished watching all the lessons in your Fluid Art Mastery course. I, too, was hesitant about signing up, but I am so glad I did! So much information and clear instruction. It is encouraging to find that you use accessible and affordable brands of paint and pouring mediums. I am looking forward to getting started. I have done a couple of fluid art paintings, which aren't too bad, but I am excited to take my art to the next level. Thank you for this course. You are an inspiration!!"

- Debra P. - 

"Learning the science behind fluid art painting was the best part of this course for me. No more wasted time, money or supplies! I am excited to start creating, and leave the frustration behind! Thankyou Olga for creating a mastery course that will help move me forward in my creative journey! Christine"

- Christine A. - 

"Hello Olga, Thank you for the reply and sharing your talent with the world, you do make a huge difference! I wait for your new videos like Christmas day lol. Hope to see some neutrals and pastel combos as well. :) All the best, Irina"

- Irina O. - 

"Wow! I was very hesitant in spending the money to take this course, but let me tell you, I was not disappointed at all. After watching this course I got a better understanding of how it all works and comes together to create beautiful works of art. I’m so excited to start this new journey with fluid painting. So if you have the time and money I would recommend anyone who wants to expand their inner artist abilities to do so, you want regret it! Thank you Olga for all you do."

- Rosemary D. - 

"Hi Olga. I started by watching your videos, then taking your course. I learned so much from the course and I am very excited to get painting. The pouring medium recipe and learning about consistency helped me a lot. Also, learning about density and layering will be game changers for me. Thank you so much for being such a good teacher and sharing your knowledge and techniques. Warmest regards, Trina"

"Dear Soby, I am glad that I signed up for your course. It is indeed useful for a beginner like me. The mixing formulas and the various techniques are beneficial."

- Loke S. - 

"Every lesson in each module is so beneficial. I love that it is all broken down into understandable and doable details. This course is a must in the fluid art journey. I have walked away with a wealth of information. Plus, Olga's personality adds so much to each lesson and is so encouraging!"

- Jeannette S. - 

"Olga, I cannot thank you enough for creating this course and sharing it ! Your detailed instruction was far and away more than I ever expected! The videos are so well organized and your positivity and enthusiasm are so encouraging! It really inspired me to believe I will be able to use your tools to take this next step to successfully creating beautiful fluid art creations. Your generosity in providing this opportunity is much appreciated, I can't wait to get started !"

- Lynnette - 

"Oh, Olga! FINALLY it all makes sense. THANK YOU! Have been pouring for months with far more failures than successes. It is hard to say what was most impactful as the course was an explosion of useful information. Certainly, your positive approach was so encouraging. Now I know I can do it. Again, THANK YOU!!!"

- Maureen K. - 

"I was surprised at the information in this course. Im so happy to learn that this whole fluid art technique has (Thanks to Olga) the guess work totally removed from the "Hope I get Cells" or " Hope I dont get Cell". Olga is very generous to share her discovery with us and I thank her for that. I can see the amount of work she had to do to get the formulation of her pouring medium down and exact in order to share it,"

- Rachael P. - 

"Olga, every module of this course was masterfully delivered. I learned so many useful skills and gained confidence to try something new. Your discussion of tools and techniques as well as thorough testing of paint brands and pouring mediums shows how much you care about the quality of your work. I am very pleased to have discovered your channel just at the right time and am grateful for your guidance."

"I purchased your Master Course appx. 1 month ago and it is addressing every problem I’ve had in the past. I’ve done one painting, a 12x30 canvas and I’m so happy with the immediate success I am having using your system. I’m spending many hours thinking about the process and going back over material when I’m unsure. It’s wonderful! Thank you Olga! I’m enjoying my pieces more than ever. Now, I’m looking at your color mastery. I’m thinking it would benefit my work."

- Lorri C. - 

"This is my first course from you and I keep telling my Fiancé that I have never in my life been so totally satisfied from making a purchase! It's crazy to me how much you answered EVERY single question that popped into my head as i was watching, and questions I've had since I began fluid art. The amount of value that you have packed into this course for such a sensible price has thoroughly, and happily surprised me! I can not thank you enough for the endless amount of frustration and feeling hopeless with my art that you have saved me from 💜 Your artwork and teachings has given me so much inspiration, and I'm so excited to grow in my use of fluid acrylics. I will definitely be purchasing some other courses as soon as I have the chance! You are such a blessing to the youtube/art community, Thank you so much for being YOU ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🩷"

"Your recipe was an Ah Ha moment and so exciting to know. I feel hopeful to make beautiful art. I want to learn so many things that you have shown; my favorite is the butterfly chain pull and the planets. I want to master the blowouts as well. :) I don't know that I would ever have a following but it's quite possible I might share as my paintings improve.... I just might do your Affiliate program. I've got a lot of practicing to do and it will be so fun! Thank you so much!"

- Amy S.- 

"Thank you so much for this well thought out, insightful course on fluid art mastery. I have learned so much about paint density and layering that I would never have considered before. I’m pretty new to fluid art so I’m very excited to see what the future holds. Thank you again, Olga."

- Wendy L.- 

"I just finished the course and I am blown away. I have only been doing fluid painting for about a year now and have been using only pre-mixed paints. I am so excited to mix my own using your tested and tried methods. I follow you on YouTube and love your artistic vision and work. I am only hoping that with time and practice, I can reach some level of mastery. I learned so much about so many things that I truly had no knowledge of. Mixing paints, layering paints for cells, density, consistency. etc...... So much to know and I am thrilled to know that I can go back to this class time and time again to revisit modules for better understanding. Thank you so much for taking the time to share your passion, knowledge and expertise with me during the class. It was easy to follow, easy to understand and so detailed oriented. I appreciate all you did to put this together!!!!!"

- Heather M.- 

"Hi Olga, All of the information you have shared is invaluable!! But, I can honestly say that the most valuable part for me has been your attention to detail, thoughtful and comprehensive explanations, and cheerful and supportive approach. You never talk down to us, you always lift us up in a way that makes me want to emulate not only your artwork but your approach. It is so comforting to have your embrace imperfection and the learning process - making it ok and exciting to try new things. I am grateful!"

- Vivian H.- 

"Yay!! I've finally finished the Fluid Art Mastery course. It was everything you said it was going to be and more. I'm very glad I 'WENT FOR IT'. I now have a 'studio' set up in my basement (which I've taken over). The best part of this course was how organized it is. You provide metaphors to aid understanding and show many examples to demonstrate your points. You've shared SO MANY valuable tips, I feel like I could almost teach a course (I'm not going to but it's nice to understand so comprehensively). I've created my 'checklists' and will be ...off to mix some paint :)"

- A.- 

"Hi Olga I have been doing fluid art for nearly 2 years and only got into it after watching some of your and another artists youtube videos. This course was not only very informative but enjoyable to watch. There is so much information I will definatley be going through all the videos again and again. I definately had a few 'Ah ha' and 'wow' moments. The most valuable advise I took away was to experiement, practice and to have patience. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, expertise and love of fluid art. Glad I bought this as a Christmas gift to myself, so worth it :)"

- Sonia Y.- 

"I am very thakfull, that you are sharing your knowledge and experience - and that always with a smile:). Your course ist really high quality, structured very well - i think it was a lot of work for you... Because its online, i can watch whenever i have time and despite living on the other side of the planet. My early paintings are all cracked and have mud colors and poor/no cells and are not good at all. Now i understand why and am not frustrated any more, but have fun learning and trying... And i can see soo much improvement allready!... Couse i learned so much, i also booked your other courses:) So once more thank you!"

- Andrea K.- 

"Hi Olga! I am a 73 (almost 74) year young novice (at best) that decided to build a little studio in the forest. It was just completed in October and I now have a special place to doodle in all the creativity I can muster! I have been intrigued with your work for years and have been blessed in taking your course! These lessons - every one of them - has answered so many "why's". The entire course was my favorite but here are a few things that were AH - HA moments for me! 1. First and foremost, you are an excellent teacher! The clarity of your explanations and instructions, flow and organization of the information, and your demonstrated passion and encouragement are superb! 2. Paints (everything about paints) has always made me scratch my head with a question mark. But now, with your education of density, cells (why some why not others), brands (not all created equal) I have a new understanding and confidence in choosing and planning my project - not just a hope and a prayer as in the past! 3. Your tips and guidance on how to move the paint on the canvass to achieve a desired result is most beneficial and my canvasses will definitely benefit from them. So many questions have been answered in this course, and I am thankful you created such a thorough offering --and that I took it! I will be referring back to various chapters often as I begin my fluid art journey. Thanks for a most wonderful educational experience and I look forward to enrolling in future Soby Art courses!"

- Pamela G.- 

"Olga what a blessing it is to have stumbled upon one of your videos watching your amazing creations come to life and it was so mesmerizing that I actually watched many more of them for 3 hours! My husband came home, and I told him I would love to do that! He has encouraged me, as I am turning 69 years old, thinking I am too old to start something new like this. He quickly reminded me that I sat for 3 hours, and it all made sense after that! I enrolled into your course in the last couple of days. I find myself watching your videos for many more hours and I couldn't be happier making list to order my materials. My husband set up a room in my basement to get to practicing and having fun on my new journey! Your course helped me understand how to flow into everything gently! Olga you are beautiful and so expressive in your teaching, your finished work shows your beauty inside and out. Thank you isn't enough to break me out into confidence again. You are the sweetest teacher and an amazingly talented artist! I appreciate you and thank you for sharing in such a gifted way."

- Pamela S.- 

"I absolutely loved your course. You explained everything in such detail that it's easy to understand. I also liked you explaining the science behind the paints. Loved the course and you teaching it."

- Michelle S.- 

"Hi , I would like to say BIG thank you to Olga and her positive attitude and continued support during this course,! Every day I was looking forward to Olga’s lessons, I absolutely loved how it was structured and as a beginner I could totally understand lessons , I liked the science behind the acrylic paints. My friends really like my student's work!! And I am soo happy and would like to continue!"

- Elena S.- 

"Thank you so much for this course! You explained everything so clear that I’m understanding a lot more of the whole proces now. I did a few tests today and they came out beautiful! It works! Thank you so much for this course, it was worth every penny!"

- Marjolein W.- 

"I have thoroughly enjoyed your course. I plan on revisiting the course content often as I try the exercises to build and refine my personal techniques. I have been exploring fluid art for about 4 years now. Watching many u-tube videos to learn recipes and techniques. This course has clarified many questions I was left with after watching videos. I mixed up a small amount of your mixes 1 and 2 and sorted my extensive paint collection into the low group 1 and high group 2 (and set aside a large number of "black list" paints, my grandkids can play with them) to experiment, to see the dried results, as I have never liked using the thicker mixes. (I originally started with the house paint, then the glue) All of those recipes and the paintings they produced, I have discarded, their longevity was not sustainable, even for a couple of years. And even thought I have since modified the recipes I use (floetrol) for a thinner consistency. After one small test of your recipe, I am in love with the dried result. I will need much practice of the use of the blow dryer, I am so looking forward to the journey. I am so glad I invested in your course. Thank you I love the dried results of your recipes"

- Sharon T.- 

"I have just completed my first proper canvas, a blown ring pour I was so nervous and shaking, but am blown away with the results. Peacock cells galore in blue, turquoise and green. I can’t stop looking at it feeling very proud. I’m so excited to do more now. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge"

- Virginia K.- 

"You have created an INCREDIBLE course. I have gone through it twice and will again, I am sure. Not only your basic information but including the science behind it is a brilliant. You are not only a wonderful teacher but also gifted. Thank you so much for the creation of your course. I am off to do your color course now. So keep them coming!"

- Sharon Z.- 

"This course was worth every penny! An investment to my journey in learning why cells are being created. It’s learning the process, instead of guessing, that has been so enlightening! You are a great teacher and I so appreciate you! I feel confident in improving my fluid art and being more artistic in the process!!!! Thank you Olga, you are the BEST!"

- Machelle F.- 

"Dear Olga, I am ever so thankful for your course, and the cheerful and happy way in which you present the contents! One can see that fluid art is running through your veins ;-), and I love the energy and passion with which you bless us all. Thank you! :-) I only started "doing" fluid arts at the beginning of this year, which is astounding for me as I am rather a person of words than of "deeds". It is words that are running through my veins and onto the "paper". ;-) Everything has its time in life, I guess. It's the juicy colours I love so much whenever I see them. I'd ike "to bite" into them whenever you mix and pour them out. So lively that is, so happy, powerful, and energetic. So, I keep watching your course again and again, absorbing everything like a sponge to bring it into life sometime(s), too. Step by step. I really do appreciate how you teach not to be afraid of "mistakes", which I put into practice every single time they happen. As a "born perfectionist" that is quite something for me. Thank you for that, too! All the best to you, loads of success, and ongoing fun with whatever you do in terms of your art. Love, Steph!"

- Stephanie E.- 

"Hi Olga, Thank you so much for this course, I am so glad I found you on YouTube! As someone who has spent their life perpetually asking “why?” This course was invaluable in explaining how the layering technique works to create cells and avoid mud. I had only tried flow art twice, both of which had a certain muddy quality, so your course definitely gave me that light bulb moment as to where I was going wrong. I also purchased the colour theory course as I did not have a lot of experience in that area either and I now feel fully armed to get out and explore acrylic pouring. Looking forward to your varnish course as well. Your teaching methods are clear and concise and it is wonderful that you are sharing the expertise that you have spent years gaining to save the rest of us a lot of frustration and heartache. Thanks again "

- Nancy V.- 

"Fabulous lessons! it was enjoyable throughout all of the sessions! I have been following many artist on YouTube and certainly enjoyed their techniques and the art. But your classes were worth every penny. I have been doing this art, (and a lot of blow outs) for about 6 years now, but WOW WOW WOW on the color vibrancy that you can never get with floetrol. I’m 77 years of age and so happy I decided to take your course😊 "

- Catherine S.- 

"Hi Olga! It is nice to have you as my pouring mentor!! I started this as a hobby a couple of years ago and, as you mention, dedicated a lot of youtube time to learning. And now that I think about it, it was a lot of procrastinating time to... yes... actually painting!! lol. I came across your channel once and I have been your subscriber since. I subscribed to a lot of channels in the process but so far I have only kept the 3 from whom I can learn the most, and that I actually enjoy watching!

It also took me quite some time to finally decide to purchase my first course, Fluid Art Mastery. I was just afraid that it would end up being just a longer version of a youtube video with just a little bit more info than what you, or any other youtuber for that matter, would provide weekly. I honestly took that step because of your "100% Money Back Guarantee", that was the queue that gave me confidence. And I simply do not regret it! You provide every single detail on your courses, I don't think that you leave anything out, and for this I am grateful.

I don't do this (yet) for selling. I have been just doing it as a hobby, a way to relax and forget about how our dear Canadian leaders have our pockets, lol. But lately I have been seeing amazing results, that is after I finished the Fluid Art course. And to be honest, I have not discarded all the brands that I have. My thoughts were that if I am doing this as a hobby and just giving my paints as gifts to my friends that have mentioned that they liked them and were honest in asking if I would sell them, well I could very well apply what I learned from your techniques and something should look different, it was my way of putting into practice what I learned from you. My last 2 paintings look awesomely different, better. So if this is just by applying your techniques, not yet using your recommended brands, I can only imagine how better my paintings will look once I start buying your recommended brands. I am not a cell fan so the absence of them, I yet don't have group 1 and group 2, is not killing me.

After that, I was wondering if my varnishing technique was the most appropriate for my new looking paintings! I was thinking, if only Olga had a Varnish course!! It was as if you were reading my mind! I know that this is your business, you make your living out of this. But, you are not selfish! I don't feel that you are leaving anything behind. If you are, then it must be just a special secret that belongs to you only, but that doesn't affect the quality of your teaching and the results. Your expertise is yours, your touch is yours, that cannot be transferred in any course, yet you do your best at giving us all that you have learned throughout the years!

I was surprised to learn that you do use spray varnish! Every youtuber uses liquid varnish so my idea of using spray was, well for rookies haha. Now of course I know why. And this was my favorite part of the course, learning which varnish works best depending on what I want to have as a finished product. Don't get me wrong, the entire course is filled up with favorite parts but knowing which varnish and sheen work best depending on my paint and end result was a key one for me.

You can imagine my face when you mentioned the "all purpose" varnishes!! haha.. I was happy that I was alone in the classroom!!! hahaha... watching the video with my left eye and my "all purpose" varnish with my right eye was a kodak moment!!! These cans are about to finish so I will just leave them for any "all purpose" projects that have nothing to do with my paintings!!

I am not a fan of glossy finish.. I am a Satin finish fan, but I will give it a try based on your recommendations, I may be surprised.

Finally, I am still going through the Resin course. Yes, I just said that I am not a fan of glossy finish and I am going through a resin course!! haha... well I just want to be prepared in case that someone asks for a resin finish. That way I will not be in Jupiter trying to resolve a last minute request from which I know nothing about. It is a lengthy thank you email, you may or may not have the time to go over all of it.

I just wanted to express my satisfaction. 🙂🙂 Thank you! "

"This has been a very informative course. I have enjoyed it completely. I have revisited many of the classes a couple of times. I found the consistency testing part very important to me. after visiting many artist on YouTube I have been misled on this. some artists mix by sight and some have a recipe that works sometimes and not others. I am anxious to get started. I have separated all my paints into low 1 and high 2. I am ready! I will follow instructions to the letter! Thank you for your fabulous presentation and I'm sure I will revisit some of the chapters again if I am uncertain. "

- Helen C.- 

"Olga, you have saved me countless hours of trial and error! I can jump in with much more confidence. I’m excited to get started. I’m a retired graphic artist. Everything is controlled down to the pixel. I’m looking forward to a media with much more freedom of expression. Thank you for sharing what you learned over many many hours of exploration. "

- Elizabeth W.- 

"Thank you Olga. This has been an excellent course which I continue to review again and again. You are a joy to watch and I have learned so much. I particularly appreciate your attention to detail and thoroughness. I can now achieve cell results that I had such difficulties with in the past. I gave up paint pouring a few years ago because it was so frustrating. Your recipes and layering method makes paint pouring possible again for me. I still need tons of practise but I am beginning to find pleasing results in my small practise pieces. I am only practising the Dutch / blowing technique at this point and experimenting with colours (inspired by your colour course). Thank you again and I look forward to taking more of your courses. "

- Julie G.- 

"Hello Olga, I found your course very informative and your way of imparting knowledge really great. I could feel your positive charisma throughout every second of the course and the fact that you live your art 100%. The fun you have resonated with me. I'm motivated to get started and am also considering taking your new Varnish Mastery course. Best regards from Germany "
