Hot Air Balloon Art

Today, Galaxy class practiced using paintbrushes. This week we painted with watercolors. We made some really beautiful hot air balloons!

First, we started with drawing the outline of the hot air balloon with black marker. We learned a new skill- tracing the shape of a balloon stencil.

 

 

 

 

 

Then we got started with the water color paints. We used bigger brushes for the large areas of color and small brushes for the details.


We mixed some of the paints together to create new colors. Galaxy did a great job with creating unique patterns and designs!

It was great to see Galaxy working with a new type of paint. Everybody did an amazing job! We are looking forward to painting again next week.
