Splatter painting refers to a set of techniques for using brushes and other tools to flick, throw, or drip paint onto a painting surface. This technique is also known as drip painting or action painting. Reportedly, the technique took off when the abstract expressionist art movement began in the 1940s. Unlike other types of visual art, this technique celebrates spontaneity and improvisation.

It is a technique that uses compressed air to force paint through the nozzle and onto the canvas.

Spray painting with multiple layers

This type of techniques involves multi-layered spray paintings. For making a thin line, you need to put the can or spray bottle very up-close to the wall.
