Creating some water ripples animation - need your advice

Hi Everybody

I am a glass artist and I am working on an experimental glass stop motion animation

I found methods to create all kind of animations sequences (hope this is the right term), but somehow I am struggling with creating a water ripples effect. I want to create a scene where some glass drops fall onto a glass surface, thus creating some ripples. I tried drawing this by hand before making it in glass, but the animation didn't look good and natural. I also tried looking for sample sequences online, but all I could find was water ripples animation from the side look – and I want this animation to be from above (top-down, you look down and see the ripples). In short, I'd be happy for your advice – is there a  source where I could find this kind of drawn sequence – free or paid? Or should I simply look for someone here that could do it for me? any advice would be welcomed
