3-D Paintings

Materials:

In a bowl, mix approximately one cup of white glue with an equal quantity of water. Draw a simple design on the Bristol board. Dip cotton balls in the glue mixture and wring out excess glue. Apply the wet cotton to the Bristol board, following the outline of the design. Also use the cotton balls to create textured areas within the picture. Wash bowl and work surfaces immediately.

Allow the cotton to dry overnight. The raised designs will become rock-hard. Use paints and glitter to make your 3-D picture colourful.

This technique also makes a great picture frame, if you create a rectangular design and cut out an area to display a photo once the paint is dry.
