The kids were learning about Matisse. They looked at pictures of Matisse paintings, especially the faces painted many different colors. They made their own bright Matisse face paintings by cutting a face-shaped hole in a sheet of paper, painting the paper with colors and designs. Then they used face paint to decorate their own faces. The final artwork is a photo taken as they look through their own paintings!
For face painting that's safe and kind to kids' skin, try the Face Painting Set from Klutz Press....tons of ideas in the full-color book that comes with the paints.
