Hi Lindy’s Fans,
This year I participated in my first-ever 100 Day Challenge. I chose to create one 2-color mini abstract painting each day for 100 days. Needless to say by the end of the first month, I was running out of color combinations from my current acrylic supply.
Thank goodness for Lindy’s amazing color palette! I tinted white gesso with Lindy’s Magicals and Sprays for a whole new palette of combinations. Here is the first one I created. I just love the shade of blue I got from adding to Danny Zuko Denim, and UFO yellow has been my recent go-to to brighten things up.

Steps:
- Tint your gesso by slowly adding magical powder, add black craft paint or more white to adjust to the shade you want
- Stamp your paper or canvas (optional)
- Apply swipes of your Lindy’s acrylic with your fingers and scratch texture into some areas
- Spray Lindy’s Starburst spray through the stencil and/or pounce some “magical” acrylic through the stencil with the make-up sponge
- Create drips with your Lindy’s Starburst Spray
- Dry completely and add a white frame with the Posca Pen
- Add marks and doodles with the Posca and Gel Pens to finish off
