Water color

I took the kids dot paint pens that Aunt Leah gave them at least a year ago and tried making water colors with them, but it didnt work. I ended up squeezing the paint out directly onto the paper and mixing the colors together. I used the primary colors and a little purple.



This is Izabellas painting, done with the same techinque. I love it and want to frame and hang it!




This is the cardboard bottom from a flat of bottled water. I have the kids use them as art trays... you would be surprised how much liquid one of these absorbs without leaking through to the bottom.
