- A stylus is used to stir the floating colors if desired. Various
combs and rakes may also be run through the colors to manipulate the
colors into more intricate patterns or pictures.
- With all the desired colors of paint on the surface, use a toothpick,
a comb or straws, etc. to carefully create swirls and design
patterns. You can create "negative" areas in the design
by placing soapy water on the surface with an eye-dropper or
by sprinkling it on. Use 1/8 teaspoon of liquid soap to 1/2 cup
of water. Use this like a "clear paint" in your designs.
Dip a whisk or a bundle of broom straws to flick drops onto the
surface. The droplets give a different effect.
