To begin cover your surface with a plastic sheet or several layers of newspaper. Make sure you wear plastic gloves and have kitchen roll to hand.
Select the paints you want to use to create a space background we have used Onyx, Ebony (both blacks) and Metal Blue, then brighter Pearl Violine, Marina, Silver, Gold and Antique Pink.
Start by pouring the darker coloured paints around the outside edges of the canvas, this will set the tone for the dark outer space background.
Using the lollipop stick smooth the paint over the canvas.
Once covered, use the lighter colours such as the purples, silvers and golds. Once the canvas is covered in paint lift it up and tilt to one side for a few seconds at a time, so paint drips around the surface creating natural patterns and shapes.
The paint will constantly move throughout the drying process, but once you are happy with your design leave on a flat surface to dry.
Next add the stars once the paint is a bit tacky or after around 45 mins of drying.
To do this simply use the end of the lollipop stick and dip into the Pearl White paint, then dab randomly onto the picture.
Then hang in a row to inspire you to imagine beyond the stars.
