If you like playing with LIQUID acrylic paints or inks, you will have fun with this quick technique for making spontaneous art with few materials and not much planning ahead.

We had a similar swap in April 2017. Here's a link:

All you need is white card stock that stands up to liquid acrylic paints, or medium-weight glossy photo paper if you prefer using alcohol inks which flow more easily and have brighter, more intense colors than some acrylic paints.
Tube acrylic paints will NOT flow and you will not get a definite abstract design.
Note: using patterned scrapbooking paper for your background adds a whole different look to your overall design... To see examples, click on link above...

If you've never done this before, you will be amazed with your results. The mirrored image is really fun to discover! Your design could resemble a butterfly. A monster. A gold Oscar statue. An exploding galaxy. (Many of my results look like X-rays.)

It's tempting to enhance the images with pen, marker, pencil or collage to show details that support whatever your imagination "sees"- but if you leave your design as it turns out, viewers will be free to imagine or "see" something in the guided blobs of paint or ink.
