Want a quick and easy way to ombre? Just spray!
The Ombre look is a great way to upcycle an old piece, or turn something bland into something
bold. Start with a white base, and divide your piece into segments based on the number
of colors you'll use-- in this case, 3.
Using your darkest color and working back and forth, spray a light coat just slightly
past the first dividing point. Using the next lightest color, start the pass slightly before
the first point, and spray just beyond the second. Repeat with the last color.
As always with spray paint, multiple light coats are preferable to one heavy one, repeat
the whole process until you build up to the intensity of color you want and pay special
attention to the 'transitions' between colors as you work making sure you overlap and layer
the colors there to reinforce the ombre look.
