Nothing says Spring like seeing cherry blossom trees begin blossoming in gorgeous shades of pink and white! This painting is a wonderful spring art project for kids with an added bonus of painting with different textures!
Supplies:
- Canvas paper
- Acrylic or tempra paint (red, pink, white, black, green)
- Paintbrushes
- Paint palette and water container, recycled containers work great for this
- Cotton balls with clothespins OR Qtips OR potato halves OR sponges
Process:
- Begin by using a black marker to draw an outline of the tree trunk and branches. The child can paint the trunk in with black paint.
- Use Qtips, or cotton balls held with clothespins to dab white and pink paint onto the branches to create the “blossoms”.
- Children can also use their fingers to dab on green leaves.
