Piet Mondrian For an abstract style, start with plain white paper. Use black grosgrain ribbon to create a grid, then add small amounts of different widths of primary-colored ribbon to fill some spaces in.

Mark Rothko Create the look of overlapping colors and shapes by using colored paper and contrasting ribbons. We love the bright, energetic colors of Rothko’s earlier work, but whatever palette you like will do.

Damien Hirst A take on Hirst’s spot paintings couldn’t be easier to create. Take different colors of yard sale dot stickers (we used markers to color some white ones), and start putting them down in rows.
