I didn't know what to do for my photo of the day... so now you must all suffer!
I actually thought it was pretty cool; has anyone else done something similar? I am thinking about developing this experiment a little further...

What is it/ how you did it?
I like it

[Marm O. Set]

I'll give you $1,000,000 if you guess all the ingredients correctly
Basically I grabbed a bunch of stuff lying around the house and put it all into a ziploc baggy. Squish it all up, manipulate a decent frame, and fire away!
Mine has Arby's sauce, motor oil, food coloring, saran wrap, etc. You know, the usual suspects.
I will be doing this again later... with different ingredients and aiming for different colors.

The $1,000,000 offer is now retracted since I told you most of the ingredients

I'd loooove to see your version if you try this; once it's all in the baggy it is a very clean process... much cleaner than I was afraid it would be. Getting it into the baggy is a different story...

Thanks for the compliments

So I took another stab at it; I like the first batch better
Next time I'm going to try some blues...

Just ran across this thread and absolutely love what you have done here. I've got to try it. I like the first two best and can definitely see these as large (ie: 30x40 or larger) wall prints.

[Marm O. Set]

Yeah, that's actually why I was doing these.
The red ones are for my red study, these greens are for my dining room.
I'm eventually going to do a cyan/blue theme and then some whites/clears.

Thanks for the compliments

I like the more translucent character of the first shots and the grainy look that doesn't show up as well in the green images.
