Let your kids electrify their room with fluorescent acrylics! Brilliant neon paint that looks great in daylight and glows under a black light makes for the coolest wall art. My teenage son was over the moon excited to create this galactic inspired wall art for his bedroom. The bright fluorescent glow of the neon paints amp up coolness factor.
Items needed:
- DecoArt Black Light Neon™
- DecoArt Pouring Medium™
- Canvas, store bought or DIY
- Large paint brush
- Small plastic containers
Instructions:
We created this wall art using a fabric canvas backing but these paints can be used on many different surfaces. Fabric, craft projects, wood and more work great for the intense pigments of this neon paint.
)
Step 1: Create a wood frame using 1 x 2 boards and 1 ¼” pocket hole screws.
)
Step 2: Attach white sheet to frame using stapler. Start at center of each side and pull sheet taught then staple onto frame at back.
)
)
Step 3: Mix small amount of neon acrylic paint with equal amount of pouring medium then mix together.
)
Step 4: Dip brush into paint / pouring medium mixture and splatter with finger onto canvas. Let each color dry in between layers.
)
Once your canvas is dry it’s ready to hang! My son was so proud to have created this psychedelic wall art for his bedroom. I installed a black light bulb into his lamp and now he has the coolest bedroom wall décor!

And because of the vivid pigments, this wall art also looks great during the daylight.
