Method for Creating a Precoated Board that will Produce Three Dimensional Liquid Art on a Surface

摘要

The embodied invention is to create a precoated board for commercial sale that will create three dimensional liquid art when a consumer pours a suitable liquid (such as water) onto a board surface. In an embodiment, a hydrophobic coating is applied and then a hydrophilic coating in the shape of art is applied. The liquid naturally collects into the hydrophilic areas of the board to form defined artistic shapes and is repelled by hydrophobic areas. Alternatively, in other embodiments, the board can be selected with a natural hydrophobic surface or a natural hydrophilic surface, and then a hydrophilic coating or a hydrophobic coating, respectively, is applied in an art shape.

主权项

1. A method of selling a precoated board that is capable of displaying a three dimensional liquid art by the steps comprising:
A) a first party selects a board made of material suitable for supporting a liquid and receiving a hydrophobic coating on its surface, B) said first party applies said hydrophobic coating on the top surface of said board thereby creating a first coated board, C) said first party applies a paint on said first coated board in the shape of artwork thereby creating a second coated board, D) said first party commercially sells said second coated board to a second party, and E) said first party designs any applied coatings on said first coated board and said second coated board so that said second party is able to:
i) pour a liquid on said second coated board,ii) maneuver said liquid so as to ensure that at least a portion of said liquid remains substantially on said paint on top of said second coated board, andiii) display said three dimensional liquid art on said second coated board in the shape of said artwork.
