How to get water for floating paintings

1, First draw a favorite simple picture on the bottom of a small bowl with a non-toxic marker.

2. Next, tilt the bowl to one side and slowly add a tablespoon or so of fresh water away from the picture.

3. Slowly level the tilted bowl back to its original position so that the water will begin to touch the edges of the picture and the marker ink will begin to float to the surface and the picture will float.
