Paint & Ink Magic
This is a creative activity, but it is also a magic trick - wow, that's really double trouble.
Blade will show you how it's done.
You will need:
Rough, textured white paper
A White poster paint
Black Indian Ink (waterproof)
A pencil
Tape
A paintbrush
Choose a cool, simple picture to draw.
Draw it lightly with a pencil.
Tape it to a window and fill in the shapes of your drawing with the white poser paint.
Leave the paint to dry.
When the paint is dry cover the whole page with black ink and leave to dry.
When it is dry show your friends this completely black page.
Tell them that you can male a picture appear out of nowhere - all you need is water and your magic wand.
Wave your wand over the black page.
Now run cold water over the black page.
The picture will appear as the ink washes off from the poster paint. What a surprise.
