I made this a how-to although i don't have photos to go with the steps :(
This drag art was made the one day in my 11th grade art class when i had some extra time to experiment with paint. Hope you enjoy and please comment if you cant understand the steps. I will try VERY HARD to get some pictures for the steps.

You Will Need (3 things)

  • Surface To Paint
  • Acrylic Paint
  • Piece Of Cardboard

Steps (3 steps, 5 minutes)

  1. 1

    Start by squirting globs of colorful paint on one end of your surface. If the paint is too thick add some water to dilute it for easier spread.

  2. 2

    Take the flat side of your strip of cardboard and drag the paint towards the other side. Repeat on all sides to disperse the color where you want it.
    For a cool texturized effect, try using a strip of cardboard with uneven edges! :D

  3. 3

    Let it dry,
    hang it,
    frame it,
    or toss it.
