This is my very first “drag” technique! What is a “drag” technique, you ask? This is when the paint is laid out across the entire panel. In this instance, I used 6 neon colors and black. I poured them into strips down the canvas. I then took a paper towel and slowly drug it down the length of the canvas. As the paint is pulled, it will roll over itself, leaving a streak of all the colors and a rainbow gradience. Then, the magic kicks in! As the paint settles, the cells start to come through. All of the color that is layered underneath pushes to the top, often from air bubbles escaping. In the end, it leaves behind a river of color.
