Spray painting
Spray painting is a technique in which a device sprays paint through the air onto a surface. I use spray paint cans to do this.
Where possible I use water based or water based and alcohol hybrid spray paint cans that are low odour and have lower volatile organic compounds.
I then apply the spray paint to canvas or large wall surfaces such as corrugated iron or brick.
