How to make the magic splotches
Let’s make magic. You need to have the supplies ready because this part is all together. Put a little alcohol in a cup with a paint brush (you can try using a spray bottle or eye dropper.) Black paint makes the splotches pop the most, but you can try using other solid colors. You are going to add a little water and water it down. You might want to try this on a scrap to make sure you aren’t too watery or not enough. BEFORE THE PAINT DRIES- add the drops of alcohol.
I’m not sure why the alcohol reacts with the paint/water….but when you splash it down….man oh man it’s just so darn amazing!
It makes some very cool abstract artwork!
Seriously try it and tell me it’s not one of the coolest things to watch!
