Abstract Acrylic Painting - painting on an easel This is a fun, unique and effortless method of painting. Not only is it therapeutic, but you will have a different masterpiece every time.

When you are finished you can display your art on an easel, make a card, invitation, or make place tags, or table toppers.

Total Time: Couple of minutes + drying time

Supplies:

acrylic paint
5" x 8" Index cards
Optional wooden dowel or chopstick
scissors
cardboard

Steps:

Select your choice of acrylic colors (I used 3) and make assorted drops on your paper. The paper I used was an index card measuring 5" x 8", but you could use any paper.

Cut a piece of cardboard (any size will do), but one that is easy to grip. I cut out a square.

Now smear the paint while using your cardboard. If you don't want your hands dirty you can use a dowel or a chopstick to hold the edges. Add more drops if you would like/need to achieve your masterpiece.
