Sponges

There are four different ways to sponge paint:• Dry on Dry Effect- put the paint

on your sponge, but not too much, and put in onto the dry paper.

• Stippled Effect- this allows you to put a lot of paint on your sponge and cover the whole paper with just one color. This sets up a good background for your picture.

• Sponge Swirl Effect- This style allows you to get a lot of paint on your sponge. Take your sponge and spin it in circles, but be careful not to lift it off the paper.

• Delicate Sponge Effect-When using this effect you will have to have your whole picture done because you are going to cut your sponge. This effect is used to add leaves on trees or grass on the ground.

Now that we know how to use our sponges we are going to paint with brushes.

Large Brushes There are many different types of paint brushes, but we will be using rounded topped large brushes.

These brushes allow you to paint a bigger pictures and cover more space with less strokes.

We will be using Tempera paint and also each of you will have your own brush that will have your name and you can pick a color handle.

Tempera is a type of paint also known as egg tempera.

It was found by the early Egyptians and used on mummy portraits.

When we paint with Tempera we will be using our sponges and our large paint brushes to make our pictures.

Tempera

Each of you will have a set of water color paints in front of you. You will also have a cup of water.

First dip your brush in the water, then bring it over to the color you want to paint with and put it on the paper. Continue to do these steps, but when you want to change colors rinse your brush off so you don’t mix colors.

Crayons and water colors are often used together to make your drawing pop out more and to have different textures in your pictures.

Water Colors

This is one of the easiest and messy art projects that we will make.

You will be given different colors of Tempera paint and use your hands and fingers to make a picture.

Don’t worry about making a mess, that is what finger painting is all about.
