Anti-Smoking Gunpowder Art
How to Do Gunpowder Art
If you’re tired of drawing and painting, try out the exciting process of creating art with gunpowder and fire! Use acrylic paper, canvas, or wood to create a variety of burn styles. Make some abstract art by spreading the gunpowder at random, or use brushes to create a detailed, original picture. After you get the gunpowder where you want it, grab a fire starter and let the fun part begin! Light the powder and watch it burn to create your unique artwork.
Buy medium to fine grain gunpowder. Go to a local gun shop, outdoor store, or browse online to buy gunpowder. Choose small grain powder because it is easier to arrange on the artwork surface. Small grain powder creates the effect without creating a large fire.
There is not a particular brand that you need to buy, just avoid getting coarse grain powder as a beginner.
Put the gunpowder into a squeeze bottle with a narrow nozzle. Look in the grocery store for the type of plastic bottle that you’d put condiments in. Make sure it has is nozzle that allows a small amount of the contents to flow out. This is optional, but it works best for beginners.
This helps you spread the gunpowder precisely on the artwork surface. It makes the process easier and allows for greater detail.
Use paper, canvas, or wood as the base of the artwork. Use acrylic coated paper, untreated wood, or standard painting canvas. Work outside on a hard, fire-resistant surface if the weather permits. If you must work indoors, do it in a garage or shop with a concrete floor and ventilation.
It’s best not to do this inside your house or in another place that’s a fire hazard.
If it is windy or rainy, you won’t be able to keep the gunpowder in the shape you want on the artwork surface.
Sprinkle the gunpowder from the bottle onto the base. Use the squirt bottle to draw with the gunpowder. Make a picture of something specific or make a series of patterns and abstract shapes. Be as detailed as you want, depending on what you want to create.
If the opening of the condiment bottle is too small, cut a bit off to widen it.
If you don’t use a bottle with a nozzle, pour the gunpowder out of its container or scoop some out with a spoon and spread it around.
Use a sponge brush or paint brush to move the gunpowder around. If you want to draw something more detailed that sprinkling the gunpowder allows, use paint tools to add details. A sponge brush works well because it allows you to push the grains around into detailed shapes.
Even if you don’t want to make a specific picture, brushes give you greater ability to shape the gunpowder than sprinkling it gives you.
