The present disclosure relates to a drawing device for creating a pattern, wherein the drawing device comprises a gear assembly that rotates upon movement of the device, the gear assembly being operatively coupled to a cam and a cam follower, such that rotation of the gear assembly rotates the cam and causes the cam to bear against the cam follower. Movement of the cam follower thereby causes lateral movement of a marker carriage housing at least one writing instrument.

A painting method produces a realistic depiction of light areas, dark areas, an appearance of reflections, color gradation, textures, form and space, and an illusion of depth by overlapping the 1st, 2nd and 3rd planes. The image is created as all these formations emerge simultaneously. An oil or water coating and a corresponding oil or water base paint are prepared. A base having a glossy smooth surface is obtained. Both sides of the base are soaked and then any excess liquid is removed. The coating is applied over the wetted, glossy, smooth surface and a layer of paint is applied over the coating. Paint and coating merged into s single entity. A tool is then used to redistribute the mixture of paint and coating to create gradients of color to complete an image.

A method of digital continuous and simultaneous three-dimensional painting and three-dimensional drawing with steps of providing a digital electronic display capable of presenting two pictures for a right eye and a left eye; providing means for creating a continuous 3D virtual canvas by digitally changing a value and sign of horizontal disparity between two images for the right eye and the left eye and their scaling on the digital electronic display corresponding to instant virtual distance between the user and an instant image within the virtual 3D canvas; providing at least one multi-axis input control device allowing digital painting or drawing on the digital electronic display; painting within virtual 3D canvas by providing simultaneous appearance of a similar stroke on the images for the right eye and the left eye on the digital electronic display.

A colouring structure comprising: a substrate, and a colouring layer disposed on at least a part of the substrate; the substrate and the colouring layer are made from different materials and have different water absorption properties, the colouring structure comprises a plurality of colouring areas and at least one separating area, wherein the colouring area is at least partially defined by the separating area. The colouring structure allows the user to easily grasp the pattern engraved on the colouring structure, which can rapidly absorb the liquid such as ink added to the surface thereof and effectively slow the horizontal diffusion of the liquid added to the colouring layer. For liquids with high water content, the high water absorption of the colouring structure avoids or effectively reduces accidents caused by the use of high-water-content liquids, such as liquid leakage, and liquid spillage and dirtying clothes or body parts over large areas.

A method for making an imprint of a surface of a fish, including supplying a fish and a fish imprint kit, where the fish imprint kit includes a developer-coated paper having a developer agent, a nonpigmented activation solution having an activation agent, an applicator, and a set of instructions for applying the activation solution to the surface of the fish with the applicator and making an imprint of the surface of the fish on the developer-coated paper, where the developer agent and activation agent are capable of reacting to produce color when combined. The method further includes applying the nonpigmented activation solution having the activation agent to a surface of the fish; and contacting the developer-coated paper having the developer agent with the surface of the fish such that the activation agent in the nonpigmented activation solution on the surface of the fish reacts with the developer agent of the developer-coated paper to produce color and form the imprint of the surface of the fish on the developer-coated paper. Applying the nonpigmented activation solution to the surface of the fish includes wiping the nonpigmented activation solution onto the surface of the fish with an absorbent material.

A system is provided enabling do it yourself body stenciling and/or body art. In particular, the system of the invention provides a body tight removable mask that masks an area of the body for body painting. The mask is sized to fit a particular portion of the torso or an appendage of a subject individual, and masks a standard area to enable an unskilled artist to paint a portion of the subject individual. The stencil can mask a logo of a sports team or other form such as a swimsuit form on a wrist or ankle or upper torso, forehead, or a bathing suit area of the subject individual. The system optionally includes adhesive, Velcro, or other interlocking overlapping portions enabling easy removal of the stencil without disturbing the freshly painted area. In its simplest form, the stencil is a mask of the thighs, and the waste, the lower chest area and upper chest area, for example, with a preferably elastic mask panel that can be easily removed once the basic painting is complete. Advantageously, the invention enables websites that feature body painting, such as Sports teams, Universities, Sports illustrated or Fashion TV to sell stencil product in association with displays of body painted models,

The present invention relates to devices, methods, and kits for applying stencil patterns to surfaces, particularly to surfaces made of fabric or fabric-like materials.

A mess-free coloring system comprising a coloring medium and optionally one or more coloring utensils is disclosed. The coloring medium can include a substrate with or without decorative effects and one or more coating layers on a surface of the substrate. In various examples, the one or more coating layers include a color-triggering developer, e.g., in the form of a substantially clear resin, and an opaque pigment. Decorative effects integrated with or disposed on the substrate, while initially obscured by the one or more coating layers, can be revealed when the coating layers are mixed with at least one color precursor stored and dispensed from a coloring utensil. The opaque pigment is selected and configured such that, upon receipt of at least one color precursor by the one or more coating layers, a change in the pigment's reflective index occurs as the pigment dissolves into the clear resin developer.
