In this project, we took an existing painted canvas and added different materials to create texture and fun.

1. Find a canvas that is either blank or has something painted on it already (figure I).

2. Find miscellaneous items that catch your eye such as toy cars, plastic beads, film reels, and computer circuit boards.

3. Start by layering the canvas with flat items like wallpaper, maps or paint.

4. Add fun items to the painting (figure J) by attaching them with polyurethane glue.

5. Allow the glue to dry, and then hang your artwork on the wall.
