Sponge Painting

• Sponge painting is one of the most common ideas for new spaces. You can make some very interesting patterns and blends, depending on the types of sponges you use as well as the colors of paint. There are a lot of varieties that you can use, such as an abstract sponge that has no discernible shape or pattern, or you can use sponges shaped like animals or different geometric shapes.
  
  

Murals

• Murals are large paintings of scenes or objects that cover an entire open space, or maybe leave a border around the image. You can use different themes and mediums to make murals such as a Romanesque theme where you paint the mural with different painted or bare pieces of medium so that the picture looks like a giant puzzle, or you can paint a mural that looks similar to the art in the Sistine Chapel.
  
  

Multiple Colors

• There are several options when it comes to using two or more colors. You can paint the space to give it a panel or two-tone look. For example, you can alternate two or more colors in any kind of pattern you desire such as vertical panels or horizontal stripes. You can use trim to separate the colors, as well as painting the trim to help bring the two other colors together.
  
  

Patterns

• Making patterns on the new varnish can open up a world of creative ideas as there are so many pre-made patterns to choose from. Patterns can add texture to a space and personalize the space as well. You can choose abstract patterns to add to the space or use geometrical shapes. There are several mediums you can use to create patterns from sponges to stencils.
