Children's Art: Flowing Paint II

Yesterday we repeated this experimental use of paint with the Children Painting Group applying the method of Helen Frankenthaler.

Each child was allowed to chose 5 different colors of acrylic paint.
We had to thin this down a bit using 1:1 gesso and a tiny little bit of water.
After stirring the mixture carefully they were ready to pour it on the canvas.
Each child had 5 18x24cm size canvases to have a bit of space for experimentation.


It was very much fun and again a bit success seeing the children to work more freely and extremely concentrated.
