Does the "water" effect have to be achieved by lighting? When we did
     an exhibit on the history of the water supply system in Toronto, we
     had the walls painted dark blue, with a water-on-sunlight effect done
     over the base coat in a lighter blue using a paint spray gun. It
     really looked good.

We are redesigning a small gallery in our museum and I've been asked to come
up with a way to get a water effect with lighting at the entrance.  I will
have some halo track, but no where near enough room to use a theater light
with a gobo and turning wheel .

Anyone have any suggestions as to how to create the illusion?

Thanks
