Hypothesis: When I add the ink and dish soap to the almond milk, it will result in a marbling effect.
- Deep dish or tray
- Watercolour paper
- 3 – 4 tbsp almond milk (original flavour)
- Food colouring, liquid watercolors and/or ink
- Liquid dish soap
- Step One: Cut your watercolor paper to a size that fits in your tray. Leave paper nearby because in order to get the best effects you must work quickly!
