Close had been known for his skillful brushwork as a graduate student at Yale University. As he explained in a 2009 interview with the Cleveland Ohio Plain Dealer, he made a choice in 1967 to make art hard for himself and force a personal artistic breakthrough by abandoning the paintbrush. "I threw away my tools", Close said. "I chose to do things I had no facility with. The choice not to do something is in a funny way more positive than the choice to do something. If you impose a limit to not do something you've done before, it will push you to where you've never gone before. so his DAD inspired him :)

How do you make a magic slate?
== * Tempera paint * Tablespoon * Large, durable zip-close bag * Masking tape * White paper (8.5x11) * Drawing tool, like a ice pop stick or finger 1 Choose a dark thick color of tempera paint. 2 Place 3 tablespoons of the tempera paint into your zip-close bag. Squeeze out as much air as you can and then zip the bag shut. 3 Position a white piece of paper, a little smaller than your bag, on a flat surface. 4 Place the paint-filled zip-close bag on top of the white sheet of paper. Tape the sides of the bag to the surface of the paper with masking tape. 5 Use your hand to smooth the paint into a thin layer in the bag and across the white paper. You now have a homemade magic slate. 6 Use a blunt drawing tool, like a finger or an ice pop stick, to draw on your homemade magic slate. Your drawing will appear as you displace the dark paint and reveal the white paper. 7 Rub your hands over the zip lock bag to wipe away your drawings and start fresh.

How many litres in kg of paint?
Exactly what paint? There are many types of paint. Many paints are in two main categories. Some are water-based, meaning they would have a density close to the density of water (one kilogram per liter) - perhaps a bit more, or a bit less, depending exactly what substances are mixed with the water, and in what concentration. Others are oil-based, meaning they definitely have LESS density than water (so a kilogram of paint would have a volume that is slightly more than a liter).
What is the ratio of paint?
always mix your paint to the manufactures specs
