189 Simple fluid art: The flip cup

Описание: One of my favourite fluid art techniques is the flip cup. It's such a simple method which creates the most fantastic effects. You never quite know what you are going to get but that's part of the fun when doing a flip cup. I've broken down the process in this video and hopefully you will find it helpful.
