I have wanted a new picture in the living room for a long time. I remembered I had a old canvas and was wondering what I could do with it when i remembered we have a budding artist living in this house. Jack loves to color with his crayons and markers so I thought it would be fun to let jack create some art.We went to the craft store and bought some tempera paint and some brushes. By the time we got home jack was ready for a nap so I prepped the canvas by painting over the whole thing in red. Unfortunately It did not cover up the print on it but that is ok.
After the paint was dry, we but an old shirt on him, poured some paint into cups and let him go to town.
He had so much fun he made another picture.
