The children here only got primary colours and black and white. They were mixing and mixing and mixing and I bet they would still be mixing if I didn’t take paints away.
Painting
Giant cardboard self-portraits
I did this project last month with my 5 and 6 year olds but as these works are turning out so amazing I am posting here the works of my 7 and 8 year olds. Somehow I was never a Depeche mode fan but I guess there comes a time for I just can’t get enough playing in your head!
Big self-portraits
I am most proud of my 5 and 6 year old artists!
We had a tiny chat about self portraits in the history, we had a good laugh about a few of them and we were shocked about some others. Some pretty, some surprising. Quite very interesting! And this here is how my children see themselves. Most adorable pieces of art ever! And they aren’t small!!
Carnival masks
It’s time for carnival! And we love animals! And we love to look crazy! So do not bother guessing…
Mixing primary colours
We were learning how to mix colours. Children enjoyed this very much. I only gave them blue, red, yellow, white and black and they made such pretty shades of all possible colours. They were first painting on cardboard and then on canvas. We tryed to frame the paintings with embroidery hoops but I think they looked prettier on it’s own. But hopefully they will all get some nice framing because they really deserve it.
Painting with natural materials
Hello spring!
It’s time for little walks with baskets. There is so much to collect, try and make. We love it!
