I like how there are several ways to see this xD Are they leaves? Fish? Eyes? So many possibilities!

I really like those stains. Would you please share how exactly they were done? Did you use acrylic paint and then splash alcohol on it?

Thank you!
No problem, I can try You take the two or three acrylic paints you want to and mix them with water in seperate cups or glasses. More than two or three colors are not necessary, for too much colors will result in a brown mud... You put the canvas on a flat surface and use a brush to apply the diluted colors on the canvas, one spot of, for example green, next to a spot of red. You have to do this part-time and one by one, for the colors dry up quickly and when you paint the colors first on a big canvas, the first spots will already be dry when you want to start with the alcohol. And I recommend to put some cloth or paper towels under the canvas, for the diluted colors will make a mess otherwise
Before the acrylic paints dry, a few drops of denatured alcohol are added to all of the stains. I always splatter and drizzle them all over the colors
And you should use old brushes for works like this because the alcohol affects them.
I hope this is useful for you *waves

Thank you very much! This information was really useful for me and very interesting. Just one stupid question... where can I buy the denatured alcohol? -___- (sorry)

Thank you very much I used denatured alcohol on attenuated acrylic color. It's a huge mess ^^
