This video by artist Steve Shaw demonstrates how much fun it can be to grab whatever paints are left over at the end of the day, dump them in a cup, and see what happens when you flip it over. This is the time to set aside all expectations and break any self-imposed rules you may have. By doing so, you just might end up with your best pour of the day—or ever!

***Supplies I Used***
- Paint by FolkArt, available at Michaels and Walmart, or on Amazon (amzn.to/3O36zid) Colors used: Black, Teal, Wicker White, Platinum, and Marina Mist.
- Silicone by 3in1 (amzn.to/3bcSNLv) In the video I mistakenly call it “3in1oil.” It is actually silicone made by the 3in1company.
- Zinsser Paint Booster a.k.a., Zinsser Flow Control Additive (amzn.to/3mZASKS)
- Water (In Atlanta, I use the water right out of the faucet, but you may need to use bottled water.)
- 16x20 inch canvas (amzn.to/3mUzPvJ)
