A NEW trend has taken over TikTok – and depending on your skill set, it can either be super fun or an absolute disaster.
The social media painting trend appears to be testing some couples as they paint what they think each other looks like – and have hilarious results.
The painting challenge – or paint your partner challenge – gives couples a great date night idea where each of you paint each other.
But the catch of the trend is that you can’t look at each other’s paintings until they’re completely done.
It’s safe to say the trend has torn apart some couples.
One of you may have an artistic flare and create the most beautiful, art-gallery-worthy piece possible.
While your other half may as well have drawn some kind of monster disguised as you, potentially triggering the question: is that what they think I really look like?
But in a heart-warming turn of events, some romantics have even used the challenge to propose to their significant others.
They paint “Will you marry me?” on their canvas before making their partner hold it up for the camera – only for them to realise the words written on.
The trend’s videos have millions of views and hundreds of thousand of likes – and viewers can’t seem to get enough of them.
While it may be commonly referred to as “paint your partner”, this is not a rule and could actually be a hilarious activity with some friends.
Go to your local craft store and buy an A4 canvas of some kind and some cheap paints.
When everything is acquired, sit opposite your friend(s) or partner and start painting.
Just make sure neither of you can see each other’s canvases to keep the surprise.
Once done, get your phone out and start recording your painting and show the person who it is meant to be.
Keep recording as you hand over the portraits to each other – which is sure to cause a lot of laughs.
