Steps to Make a DIY Dog Lick Abstract Painting
To get started, you’ll want to protect your floor. The Ziplock bag should protect paint from leaking out. But in case it does, it’s a good idea to have something on the floor in case. Lay out newspaper or an old sheet/t-towel. I was thankful I did this!
White/No Background: Decide the canvas design you want to make. If you want to fully cover the canvas in paint, keep it white.
Black Background: Or, you can paint the background black for a different style. Let dry.
Paint Dots: Select a variety of paint colors. Squeeze the bottle onto the canvas to make a variety of different colored dots. How many dots you make is up to you! A lot of splotches means it will cover the entire canvas if your dog licks a lot. Fewer splotches means less color (great for bright colors on a black painted background canvas).
Place Into Bag: Carefully place the painting into your Ziplock bag. Try to place it into a corner so it’s easy to tape in the next step.
Tape Bag: If your bag is bigger than your canvas, tape the extra plastic on the back on the canvas. This restricts the licking area to the canvas only, making sure your dog actually moves around the paint beneath.
Peanut Butter: Spread any type of dog-safe nut butter on the Ziplock bag.
Lick: Your dog’s favorite part! Have them lick the Ziplock bag, moving the paint underneath it. Let them continue until they’re finished.
Display: Take out of the plastic bag and let dry. Proudly display and tell everyone your dog is pupasso 🎨
