To draw you must close your eyes and sing.

Pablo Picasso

We are working on a Batik painting this week.

  The kids first decided what they wanted to draw.  They drew over their drawing with a sharpie marker then painted with tempra paint without touching the lines.  That can be tricky when there is a lot of detail, especially when you are a six year old.

                             

 They did such a great job.  Next week we are going to paint the whole thing with India ink!
It is scary and exiting at the same time! The results are fabulous.  I will post the finished paintings next week.
