| Ian finished Squirt Gun Painting in one session lasting about thirty minutes, including clean up. Ian painted a canvas board with dark green tempera paint mixed with sugar, then using a plastic suction squirt gun shaped like a large syringe, he squirted sugar paint onto the wet canvas board. |

| He placed the front end of the squirt gun into a plastic container of sugar paint sucking paint into the chamber by pulling the handle backwards. Ian then stood near the canvas board and plunged the handle forward squirting a stream of sugar paint in that direction. |

| Ian kept a good distance between himself and the canvas board each time he sprayed it with sugar paint to enhance the streaky effect. He began with brown sugar paint, then squirted yellow, light green, black, white, and finally orange onto the canvas board. Ian enjoyed his painting session so much, that when he inadvertently broke the plastic handle he continued squirting anyway. |
