steps to creating saturated ink spray panels
- Lightly spray paper with water.
- Spray a heavy amount of ink spray on prepared paper, adding in various colors to create a blended look.
- (optional) Take a second piece of paper and sandwitch over the first to grab the excess ink.
- Blot both pieces with paper towling to grab any excess ink.
