Boo's Art Project

For some time now, my daughter and I have been thinking of making Abstract art on canvas.  We had some smaller canvases donated by Nana, but were  waiting for large ones to go on sale at Michael's.

Here's Boo's project.  We first watched some Youtube videos about Fluid Liquid acrylic painting. (example: here.)

Hannah sprayed the paints with a water bottle while they were still wet to create this effect. She used regular craft acrylic paint.


The photos don't do it justice.  When you turn it over it resembles a birch forest in front of a lake.


The squares were done with Medium Gesso and a repeating square stencil that was left to dry for 24 hours before adding paint.
