I changed my liquids today, and since each one behaves differently, I need to figure out what kind of drop collisions I will aim for. Since this liquid tends not to splash a lot, I likely won't get many flying tendrils. So I decided to try for abstract art forms instead of the more traditional symmetrical shapes.
I used two valves on this, with a different color in each, and a 3rd color in the basin. As the drops collided, their colors merged, so I ended up with 5 colors instead of the 3 I started with. I loved the intricacy of the water patterns in the top collision, and even got a kick out of the yin-yang droplet that hasn't quite collided yet. I also liked the juxtaposition of the curves and rounded shapes next to the tall fairly straight column. Just an interesting abstract liquid sculpture!
so pretty; looks like it could be made of glass. I love that tiny yin yang too. I also love what looks like an Alstroemeria from the side inside the sculpture. Now that I relook at it, I now see an Asian lady with a bun in her hair. Her hands are in her upper sleeves and she's got a long tail at the back
ReplyDeleteThanks, Maggie. Ha! Now I see her, too, sitting and facing away at a slight angle to the northwest. The additive to the water that I'm using for this picture creates very smooth collisions, but the details have a tendency to look like glass sculptures. Just another kind of playing with water!
ReplyDeleteYou guys are too funny... I see a parrot, whose body turns into an elephant head with a very loooong turnk...lol
ReplyDeleteOr perhaps a parrot whose dinner disagreed with him... ;) Actually, I just liked the lines, shapes and colors....
DeleteI agree with MML - Its a Parrot who is pee peeing. :-0
ReplyDelete..or and alien...with his big EYE.
I don't know why, but when I saw this my mind went "Ghost Busters" haha.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like a very tall lady with a curved walking stick. Or maybe she's playing golf...
ReplyDeleteI was thinking Madame Butterfly. How interesting that 3 colours end up creating 5.
