Next you will need to creatively place painter's tape on your canvas(es) to make a unique pattern. See the pictures for some ideas.

Now it's time to paint! Once you have put tape on your canvas(es) you will paint the different sections of the canvas(es), alternating colors.

After you are done painting and the paint is dry, you will need to slowly and carefully peel the tape off the canvas(es). As you can see in one of the pictures there is still black tape. This is because I used electrical tape on one of mine, and electrical tape is hard to peel off without ripping the canvas(es). So I decided to re-tape that one (this way you can't see the paint that went on the tape because there is another layer of tape). Enjoy your new Masterpiece!
