We are painting

this time with watercolour and glue

March 19, 2020 Spring Painting Art

What do you need?
heavy drawing paper
transparent glue
wooden skewer
watercolor paint
paint brush

With all the beautiful art books still to come, we are going to paint ourselves today, with watercolours and glue. While squeezing a spider web of glue on the paper, make sure that the tip of the bottle does not touch the paper. Then it really can't go wrong if you allow the glue to dry very well before you start painting. Of course you don't have to make a spider web, how about a snail, a shell or a turtle? Our main objective is having fun while we make beautiful art :))

Tear a sheet of drawing paper out and take out the glue.

Squeeze out a big blob of glue in the center of the paper.

Squeeze out glue circles around the blob in the middle.

Now we use the wooden skewer

Pull vertical lines from the glue blob to the outer ring.

Use the back of the skewer if the lines are too narrow.

When the glue circles are full put the web aside to dry.

Fill the pockets in the web with various shades of watercolour.

The painting does not have to be precise, on the glue the paint will not stick.

Let the watercolour dry well.
 
Puk draws his own web, glue takes too long!

This is our spiderweb art work.

We glue the spider webs on a new sheet of paper and then we look for a nice spot to hang all our artwork.
