I had the children do a wet on wet technique. They painted their entire paper with water only to start. Limiting the colors and the amount of them can help with over painting. I offered small amounts of blue, green and black. I encouraged them to paint in horizontal strokes. You might notice some of the kids sprinkled salt on their pieces while still wet to achieve a unique texture. Hope this helps!Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01659049026365545639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2764202135165479575.post-64941080346608731222014-10-30T23:14:32.179-07:002014-10-30T23:14:32.179-07:00These are lovely!

I was at our school's book fair last week and couldn't resist buying the book, CREATURE FEATURES by Jenkins and Page. It reminded me of the work you do with your kids because each page is a close up of the head of a different animal with an interesting fact about that animal. I plan to have my kids do the bearded seal.Christie - Fine Lineshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10418114130566362780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2764202135165479575.post-21849163154763059582014-10-09T21:49:37.087-07:002014-10-09T21:49:37.087-07:00The paintings are fantastic Mary :-)The paintings are fantastic Mary :-)Tinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17906172340758291892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2764202135165479575.post-24603598549278900342014-10-09T17:11:52.480-07:002014-10-09T17:11:52.480-07:00I love these otters Mary..
