Earth Art & Paint Summer Newsletter
Children’s Earth Paint,
not just for children!
After teaching nature-inspired art classes over the past Summer, I’ve discovered that adults are having just as much fun with the water soluble Earth Paints as children! From making leaf print stationary and painting flower pots to decorating wooden frames and large garden rocks, the fun can be enjoyed by all ages.
Summer Art Project:
Sea Shell Collages
Have you ever wondered what you’ll do with that bag of shells that you’ve been collecting at beaches for years? Here ya go…
1. Paint shells with Earth Paints 2. Glue to a scrap piece of wood or stiff board in pretty patterns or in shape of animals, flowers, people, etc.
* Toddler Option: Instead of gluing them down, let your toddler sort, arrange, and put them in different containers. My 2 ½ year old was occupied with this hours!
* Older Child Option: use a tiny brush to add tiny details
