I'm looking for a simple method which can able me to draw in a canvas a paint splash like this on :
One method will be to fire a lot of small particles which will paint a little circle, but I don't want to manage a lot of particle objects.
EDIT : example here: jsfiddle.net/MK73j/4/
A second method will be to have few images and manipulate scale and rotation, but I want to have a good random on the effect.
A third method will be to make some random litte points, join them with bezier curves and fill the content, but I will have only a single mark.
Well I don't know if there is a better method to have an effect which looks like this image or if I have to choose on of the 3 I thought about.

You can use illusion to create a nice splat effect.
Since objects “grow” as they approach, you can animate an increasing size plus a little motion to create your splat effect.
You can use context.drawImage to handle the resizing:
context.drawImage(splashImg, 0 ,0, splashImg.width, splashImg.height,
newX, newY, newWidth, newHeight);
Here is code and a Fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/m1erickson/r8Grf/
