With the start of our Thursday project in addition to Wednesday's it was lots of painting and handprints from one end of the room to the other. The Thursday group went back to basics. Little things like learning to wash your brush in between adding colours and going over primary and secondary colours.
It's quite fun to watch their expressions as yellow changes to green or red changes to purple. And having an excuse to put your hands into the paint and mix just adds a whole other element.
There are always the kids that have been undertaking projects for years and just reel off the colours required for mixing and love the freedom in having their own palette to work from. It's amazing to see how competent they become.
Eventually once finished with the artistic masterpiece on the outside of the planters, they were able to plant. What fun that was!
Now I must remember to water...
