Glass Steps Paint Timelapse

I needed to use different textures other than wood, and Mike Canning suggested I try glass so I could see what's happening underneath all these abstract patterns. So I made a small set of glass steps (with thanks to Art Mad and their off cuts of frames) and poured a lot of paint over them. Each step makes the paint mix a bit more, creating more and more abstract patterns.

Tabletop Maze Timelapse

This was kind of a fluke experiment. I asked the lads in the material store for a load of off cuts they were going to throw out and I'd planned to glue them together in a random way.. but it must've been all my years of lego building when I was a kid coming back to me because I found places to stick them all together to make this maze. I poured blue, red, green and yellow on 4 different parts of the maze and they all joined at the final slope leading down to the base, where it left some cool patterns. It then dripped onto the floor to make another pattern. 

Paint fountain 2

 

This was my second attempt at a paint fountain. This time I used more paint on a smaller scale fountain and let the paint flow naturally instead of controlling it myself.

Paint Fountain

I went back to paint and I designed a sculpture based on a chocolate fountain, then poured layers of paint over the top tier and let it flow down. Then after I'd used all the paint I had, Benny and I tilted the fountain to control where the paint was flowing. This is an idea that was influenced by Bernard Frize. The idea of pouring the paint like this is based on an video I saw on youtube by Holton Rower. His was similar but I feel that letting it drip creates different, and in my opinion, more interesting visuals. Background music : Vitalic - Trahison
