It’s autumn Down Under, so for art this week we did some autumnal painting.
The idea came from here.
The instructions called for tempera paint. I had no idea what that was, so I looked it up and found that it was easy enough to make your own. So that’s what we did. Basically, all we did was use egg yolks and add a little food colouring. The egg whites will be used for a yummy treat…marshmallows!
It was really nice to paint with and when it dries it has a beautiful sheen. In the words of Millymoo: “this is the nicest paint I’ve ever used!”
Linking to:
Oh this is beautiful! Just egg yolks and food coloring will do?
yes, that’s all there is to it.
Nice! Sounds quite fail-safe. Going to try it next week
That looks so good, I think I will try it.
Well done girls
