HI,
What would be a good place to start to try to emulate the "fluid art" that is really popular right now? See examples below. (art is not mine). Thanks!

But I just couldn't resist as I try to make sense of what's happening. Losing my connection to SA, Synthetik and John has been a great sadness... and if real, ends a monumental era in my creative life. love,~Victor

Yeah, thanks for pointing this one out. There was a whole folder of stuff i posted for this topic years ago, which should be in forum archives some where. Also, older wet ink presets would be a good place to look.
thanks! I will check it out.
Seems like there are a lot of ways.
I am sure there are some experts with the tools in SA that can suggest more options.
I like doing some hand painting with Paint Synth Presets.
The package here has a few that sort of address the effect and some that don’t but are fun and a good place to start editing:

The zip contains several start point Paint Synth Presets
These were built to be used with a source image.
Another hands on option:
Warp/Rotate Local. Adjust settings to taste and draw.
Several other warp effects can be useful as well.
Awesome. I downloaded the presets and am going to try them today!
I updated the presets with more:
CD_hdmedia_additions_21.zip
None of this set really do the full liquid spreading that you may be looking for - but they are fun to play with. I made them as effects coming from hand drawing/spreading... No auto button type things.
I also poked around in old SA presets.
You will find in SA 2.0 collections and 3.0 that there are some nice spreading effects like:
3.0 collection/Liquids/LiquidFlower1
Look for Liquids folders
It would be great to see what you create with the spreading liquids! Luck!
Thanks! Where would I find the old 2 and 3 presets? I only can find the presets for 4.
HI Craig,
Not exactly liquid, but here's one I just finished that is going to be made into prints.
Made with SA?! Very wild! Well done!
: )
The 2.0 and 3.0 collections I have may be from older installs - or they may be available as downloads from the Synthetik site. I am uncertain where I got them from... Other than I have had versions of SA from 2000-ish on and stacks of old presets.
A search in this Ning forum might turn up where those collections could be found.
