Use a cosmetic sponge to randomly stencil the Tornado and Whirlpool stencils throughout the canvas in Titanium White. Use a cosmetic sponge to randomly stencil designs from the Industrial Elements stencil in Quinacridone Gold. Find an image of a world map online; print and trace onto the canvas with a black permanent marker.
Use a medium round brush to outline the world map in Quinacridone Violet. Mix (1) part Quinacridone Violet with 4 parts Matte Medium to make a glaze. Use this glaze to fill in the world map with a medium flat brush. Mix (1) part Prussian Blue Hue with (2) parts Matte Medium to make a glaze to frame the canvas. Use this glaze to paint the perimeter of the canvas with a medium flat brush, making sure to blend going inward.
