Option 1

You will need:

• Canvas
• Paints
• Sponge

How to do it:

• Soak the sponge in two paint colors and apply horizontal strokes from side to side on the canvas.
• Using the same technique, continue adding colors until the canvas is completely covered.
• Place the sponge in the center of the canvas and, with a wrist twist, trace a semicircle to create a sun.
• Dip the tip of the sponge into a lighter shade and, using side-to-side triangular motions from larger to smaller, create a shadow, a reflection of the sun on the water.

Option 2

You will need:

• Container with water
• Paints
• Poster paper

How to do it:

• Place water in the tray along with all the desired paint colors.
• Carefully insert the paper through one edge of the tray so that it passes under the paint to the other side.
• Lift the paper, collecting the paint from the water, and let it dry.

Option 3

You will need:

• Canvas
• Paints
• Aluminum foil
• Seashells

How to do it:

• Deposit small amounts of paint in various colors, as shown in the image, on the canvas.
• Take a piece of aluminum foil and shape it into a ball.
• Use the aluminum foil ball to tap the paint, thus spreading and blending it together.
• Decoratively attach some seashells to the bottom of the canvas.

Option 4

You will need:

• Canvas
• Paints
• Flat brush

How to do it:

• Place small portions of paint in random colors along the entire edge of the canvas.
• Using a flat brush, spread the paints with long strokes, from side to side in straight diagonal lines.
• Let it dry.

Option 5

You will need:

• Large canvas
• Mop
• Bucket
• Paint

How to do it:

• Place the paint in a bucket; if it’s too thick, you can dilute it with a bit of water.
• Dip the mop into the bucket with paint and trace a heart shape on the canvas.
• Allow the mop’s paint to drip randomly onto the canvas.
• Let it dry.
