tie-dye drawing

supplies 

• white (or light-colored) paper
• crayons
• watercolors
• paintbrush

steps 

1. Pick three bright crayons and make a dot in the middle of your paper with one of them.
2. Make a swirl from the dot to the edge of the page. 
   
3. Using another color, add another swirl from the dot to another edge of the page. 
   
4. Using your last color, add your last swirl to a third edge of the page. 
   
5. Scribble back and forth on your first line with the same color that you used to draw it. Press hard with your crayons to make the color extra bright. 
   
6. Scribble all the way to the end. It looks nicest if you scribble wider at the end.
   
7. Scribble on the other two lines as well. 
   
8. Paint over your picture with black watercolor.
