Hello friends! Hoping someone here can help me out. I'm a digital artist by trade, so forgive me if I'm using incorrect terms. I'm interested in using paint to recreate a suspension similar to the attached picture. From what I gathered from the picture comments, it was a bucket of blue paint that sat for a year, separated from the oil(?), and the guy added a bit of yellow paint and stirred it around. Obviously I don't want to wait a year for paint to settle.. So at first I thought about using a centrifuge.. Then figured it would be easier to just buy the ingredients for paint separate (mixing pigment and binder, then adding oil(?) later on top). I don't have to use the exact ingredients in paint since this won't be applied to anything.. So if something works better, I'm all ears. I just need a timely method of congealing the pigment and suspending it in a clear liquid to recreate the layered/3D look. Then be able to have a bit of control to stir it around and experiment with visual compositions. It doesn't have to be suspended permanently, as I'll be happy with simply taking pictures like this, but if there was a way to "freeze it" in place permanently for wall/table art, I'd definitely be interested in trying it! (Maybe some sort of clear lacquer that hardens?) Any ideas?
