Try Leaf Painting and Printing!
Try Leaf Painting and Printing!
This week at the Stay at Home Art Club our theme is nature and today we are getting creative with leaves! Spring has truly sprung and all the trees are blossoming with lots of lovely leaves. So our challenge for you today is o try leaf painting and printing. All you need to do is collect some different types of leaves on your next family walk or from your back garden. Then when you get home get some paper, paints, a paintbrush and an apron. Put on your apron to protect your clothes and pick some paint colours that you like. Paint one side of your leaf then press it gently only the paper. Peel the leaf off to find a beautiful print left behind. Keep doing this with the different leaves you have collected to create a lovely picture.
Remember to send us in anything that you create to our Facebook or Instagram page so we can share them online and inspire others to get creative too!
