Reply to comment by PassageAppropriate90 in Hot trash, me, acrylic on cardboard, 2023 by notquitenuts

Tyvm! I Mixed some acrylic and water , the black was a hair thicker consistency and applied via ketchup bottles in the rough shape I wanted. I gave it a quick diagonal tilt and then blew lightly on the tips of the flames to push the colors into the black. For the whisky parts I just dragged a piece of wood from the flame to the black

Ahhh. I noticed what looked like an airbrush effect and a drizzle Ala jackson pollock. That's cool you got both with one tool. I'm gonna have to try this. Thank you.

YW, I was working on ways to get a reasonable representation of fire and that's the only way that was acceptable IMO. I'd love to hear/see how your project turns out and if you pick up tips!
