You know… you really can never stop with what you can see on the surface of the water! After looking around and with added inspiration, I spent some time with Zach Cooper to come up with some very creative macro ink drops in water. I think they turned out pretty cool! My favorite are the ones with just a single drop making it’s way to the bottom of the glass against the white background! While we did experiment with several colors – they became very busy and very murky.
I hope you enjoy these as well!
