ABSTRACT:
A surface of an object to be decorated is provided with a first color. A liquid, such as water, is applied to the surface to form a plurality of drops. A coloring agent having a second color, such as conventional spray paint, is applied to the surface over the drops. The liquid is then removed from the surface, for example, by evaporation or allowing the liquid to drip off of the surface, and the coloring agent is dried. A protective coating is optionally applied over the finished surface. To apply the decorative finish to a three-dimensional surface, the same process is used except, the liquid is first applied to a first portion of the surface to form a plurality of drops. The liquid is then frozen in place so that the liquid may then be applied to a second portion of the three-dimensional surface. The application of the liquid and freezing is repeated until a desired section of the surface has been covered with liquid drops, the coloring agent and optional a protective coating are then applied as in the two-dimensional process.
