Looks nice, anything on the internet that tells how to do it?

Colour on wood is always subjective. Sometime it enhances the shape or grain, sometimes it masks it such that it might as well be a bit of plastic.

The photo is a bit blury but I do like the effect - I'm seeing something like flames.

What colouring agent did you use, spirit stains, acrylics, oils, water based, and what finish is on top.

Good Effort.
