Different paints were made and tested for effectiveness in painting, including milk paint and flour paint, by measuring the quality of the techniques, and were compared to a standard acrylic paint to see differences. These paints were also tested for effectiveness in biodegrading by being put in compost and measured weekly for changes. The overall goal of this project was to find acrylic paint alternatives that both work well for painting with, and biodegrade, and are therefore good for the environment.
