Question: Paint that looks like dried blood!?
I have a friend who is wanting to do a painting in blood for a school project meant for AIDS awareness!. Obviously the school isn't letting him use his actual blood, but I was wondering if there are any artists out there that know of a paint or mixture that will dry to look like dried blood!. I really want to help him with this! Please and thank you!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Dried blood has the color of a very dark rust!. You could try adding black or blue to a red paint, or "burnt sienna" paint would come close!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
