Painting with Watercolor Pencils

They didn't have watercolor pencils in my time (at school). I find them fascinating and fun so I bought some for the kids to try. I like the fact that its not messy for young kids. I asked my girl to draw two scenes ie 1. Town and 2. Country.

Then she colored her drawings with the watercolor pencils. And finally we painted them in using water and a brush. Here is her Town and Country watercolor painting.

Here is her drawing and painting of a town. It includes a mall, a hotel and a parking lot for the mall. Lol! You won't win any prizes for guessing that we do a lot of shopping in town.

Here is her drawing and painting of a country. It includes a bunny, a cat, a farmer, a farm house and a car driving beside a field of flowers and a river.

And finally, here is baby's (Baby refers to my 4 year old boy) abstract art. He is seldom left out in our arts and crafts activities and joins in with his own version of art.
