• Put 1/2" of water into an old cake pan or other tray that is about 3" deep.

• Using oil based paint such as model paint, thin it out with a few drops of turpentine. Stir well.

• After thinning several colors, drop 2 drops of several desired colors onto the surface of the water. The droplets will fan out and cover the surface of the water.

• Slowly and lightly draw a stick through the colors - once only.

• Lay one edge of the paper on the water surface and lower the rest of the paper, or bend the paper so that the middle touches first and then let the edges fall onto the surface. Do not submerge. The paper will pick up the swirled paint colors from the surface of the water.

• Lift up immediately and place face down onto newspaper to absorb surplus color and water. Eliminate this step if you desire very intense colors.

• Lay flat to dry, or hang.

• Dip 3-5 sheets of paper before adding more color droplets.
