Assemble a unique picture using, of all things, the humble Aussie thong.

Simply arrange several thongs side by side and part-stepped on a 30 x 90cm canvas. Allow a number to hang over the sides of the canvas. When you are happy with your layout, use a construction adhesive to attach the soles to the canvas. After the glue has set, trim the overhanging thongs with a Stanley knife so they are aligned with the edge of the canvas. Using a paint spray-gun, and slowly moving back and forth across the canvas for an even application of paint, apply two coats of white acrylic undercoat. Allow the paint to dry after each coat. Finish with two coats of gloss acrylic paint. Note: When you're using a spray-gun, dilute the paint with water (10:1).
