Create the marbling effect.

Pro Tips
Always ensure your base coat is fully dry before applying the marbling colors to avoid smudging.
For a more precise marbling effect, practice your technique on a piece of parchment paper first.
If the water marble technique is too difficult, you can use a sponge to dab on colors for a similar effect.
