September's SpirARTuality activity was marbling fabric using shaving cream.
Step 1: Spread a layer of shaving cream in a bin or on any sort of flat surface (even the gravel patio worked!)
Step 2: Blob on some paint, and swosh it around (this picture is actually taken after step 3...)
Step 3: Press a damp piece of fabric down into the color. "The Directions" say leave it there to dry. But what fun is that?! We Must Make More!!
Step 4: Lay flat or hang to dry (and don't be embarassed about your big rump in the side of the photo)
Jo came out with some beautiful marbling when she did this alone. As a group, we made some interestingly painted pieces...but I'm not sure they could actually be considered "marbled."
The question of the day came from someone being surprised at how little control they had of the process of getting the colors onto the fabric:
How much control do you believe God has in your life? Does God drop the colors and let them smoosh where they may, or is God more careful about getting things just so?
