Hand On Wall Painting
As famously stated by the all-time genius, Leonardo da Vinci, there is no art where the spirit does not work with the hand. Hand on wall painting is an exciting art concept that is convenient for both kids and adults alike. This art is beneficial in so many ways. In addition to being so much fun, it improves the coordination between your hands and eyes.
In this type of art, the canvases are walls, ensuring that the memories never fade away. Your kids can refer to this work when they become adults, igniting memories of their warm and loving childhood.
Materials needed
- Hands (lol)
- Paints
- Water
- Apron
- Marker/ Paper tape
- Soap
Steps
- Mix the paint
Allow your kids to mix the paint with water and form different secondary colors from various mixtures. The paint should have a high consistency (a little bit thick). Choose colors that offer a sharp contrast to the color of the wall.
- Dip your hands in the paint
Now, allow your kids to dip their hands into the paint and leave it for about 20 seconds. Remember, this art is not for kids alone. Dip your hands in it. Don’t miss out on the fun!
- Place your hands on the wall
Now, place the palm of your hands on the wall for 30- 60 seconds. This is an ample amount of time to adore the smiles on your kids’ faces mixed with a bit of impatience as they anticipate the removal of their hands.
- Label the hands
Label each hand with a marker or paper tape glued under the fingers. You won’t want the headache that springs from an argument of whose hand is who’s.
- Wash the hands
Wash your hands properly to remove all the paint from each finger and nails. Use paints that can be washed off the hands easily to avoid stories that touch.
Conclusion
Yes! So here we are! Your kids would have learned so much about color combinations and the beauty of art. Watch as they still marvel and laugh over the painting years later! I’m sure you don’t want to miss out on this!
