I’ve done this. It doesn’t actually work. If you use a conventional framed canvas, the paintballs tear right through. It works better on canvas board. BUT. Paintball paint is too watery and slides off the canvas quickly. Plus in this humid Hawaiian climate, it took days to dry and then it faded shortly thereafter until it just looked like a dirty canvas. :(
Ingramgirl: Yea because i think the main ingredient in them is gelatin and vegatable oil. Not the best for painting. Meant to wash out easily and come out of clothes easy.
That Jackson Pollack site is cool, but it seems a ot more like Ralph Steadman than JP. Maybe if we are lucky Lio will become the next Rabo Karabekian. =)

The boy will be rich by the end of the day. His father won’t have to go out and get a job after all.

A crash course in understanding modern art.
If You can walk around it , it´s a sculpture.
If You hit a wall, it´s a painting.

He’ll be the Jackson Pollock of the 21st century - just stay off the root beer, kid.

Does he really need a helmet? Perhaps paint-ball painting has become more popular and other prospective painters are around…
