art

My kids love to use paint for all sorts of things so when I saw a chance to participate in a Paint-a-Thon blog hop I knew this would be super fun and easy to participate. We choose to do a pointillism painting with some new acrylic paints that we got for review.

This was the first time Princess got to use acrylics from tubes. She was very excited to be the first one to try them since Eldest normally gets to any new paint first!

 

I really like the colors of the acrylic paint that I got to use and they were very easy to open. We already owned a clipboard, paint brushes and the paint pallet that I got to use.

My mom asked me to find 5-7 different circles from objects we had around the house. I collected a few fat markers, a drink stirrer from the dollar store (that we use in tot tray activities), a top to a water bottle, a lollipop stick from the craft store, a pen and a pencil.

Since it is Summer I decided to make a quick Summer scene with flowers, the sun, and a bird in the sky. It was very fun to work outside without my brothers to create my own work of art.

Princess is very proud of her pointillism for kids with acrylics finished piece of work.

This post is part of a month long series featuring all things PAINT! Be sure to hop on over and enjoy all sorts of fun posts about other children who love to paint during Emma Owl’s Paint-a-Thon!
