ABSTRACT ART DIY

Everyone can use a little color in their world, so why not make some simple abstract DRAG art and freshen up your decor! Pick your favorite colors and you'll have something for you wall worthy of MOMA! Grab the kids and have them help. Seriously, you can't go wrong with this technique!
 Is it upside down?
Try hanging several together....
I may leave these out in my garden!
Check out the video tutorial here!
YOU'LL NEED
Americana Decor Multi-Surface Satin Paints
DecoArt Dazzling Metallics
Canvas
Small paint roller
Paintbrushes
Cardboard 
Roll several colors of paint to cover the entire canvas and let dry
Squeeze your favorite colors along one entire edge of the canvas
*Be generous with the paint 
Take the flat edge of a piece of cardboard and drag the paint straight across the canvas
Take a new piece of cardboard and continue along the edge until the canvas is completely covered
Add more colors to cover up any "holes" you may have
For a different technique, try using a wavy motion when dragging the paint across the canvas
