Your rock sculpture sounds wonderful. Do you make tiny adjustments from time to time?

I use low viscosity acrylics mixed with Floetrol 1:2 ratio & a blow dryer or trowel & many various tools & tricks to manipulate the paint colors. I also use Liquitex Pouring medium for a crisper outcome.

I call it Dancing with Paint. 😂😂😂

The shapes are what nature does, the color interactions are attributable to the gravity weight of each color. The chemical interactions between paints & mediums add to the mysterious outcomes. Usually tweak to create balance.

And surely other unseen unknown forces of nature get involved I am sure.

I look forward to seeing more of your work.

Here is one of my fav fluid artists. I actually shared my blow dryer technique with Elyse. You can view my fav process. I’m getting ready to do larger works 🤞

Be careful, fluid Art is highly addictive
DM if you have questions. Under Elyse’s videos she generously shares her process for each painting
