With a special roller and paint tray, you can apply two colors of paint at the same time. The effect is jarring at first, but if you roll back and forth in random directions, the colors blend and create a mottled look.
Because you use only paint, the finish lacks the translucent quality that glaze offers. The trade-off, though, is speed, as you don’t need separate base and glaze coats.
Materials and tools you’ll need:
* Two-part roller with tray
* Wall paint in two colors (any sheen)
* Painter’s tape
* Newspaper
* Chip brush
* Cotton T-shirt rags
