Here’s something even better, standing behind a jet engine and tossing paint into the air, allowing the exhaust to splatter the paint all over the canvas.

This really is a thing.

Heh, when I was in the USN doing high power turn-ups on our planes, we would throw empty oil cans into the exhaust to see them flatten when they hit the jet blast deflectors!

I remember an old film in art class in college. A man has a 4x8 ft sheet of plywood placed on a bank of river mud. He then from an elevated position begins to sprinkle and pour paint onto his “canvas”.
When he is finished he then takes it and cuts it into various sizes of “paintings”.

An art dealer comes in, looks them over and buys a small one maybe 8x12 inches.

The “artist” then throws the rest into the river to float away.
