Amazing. I would love to know how to do these. Care to share your method and materials?

I found the shot of your set up. I figured you were probably using the stopshot. Wish I could afford it what is the surface you are dropping onto? It looks like dark glass. Are you using a acrylic paint.

I use a variety of surfaces. Sometimes acrylic sheet, sometimes glass, and of course sometimes water. I think the paint is acrylic, I'd have to look to be sure. I always work with water based materials, and thin them as needed.

Thanks!
