Today we made Suminagashi Paintings but instead of water, we used shaving cream. Suminagashi means "floating ink." It began in China to create a marble effect in books. The Japanese began using this technique and perfected it. The pictures don't do these paintings justice--they were A.M.A.Z.I.N.G. Make sure to click on each picture to enlarge it so you can see the detail in each painting.
We also want to wish Kadence a VERY Happy Birthday this week!
It's gr8 to create!

We started with shaving cream. |
 |
Add some acrylic paints. |
 |
Snacks and music are a must in our art class. :) |
|

 |
We used a squeegee to take the shaving cream off. |
 |
.....and voila! |
 |
I took the paper outside to take the picture so you could see the colorful designs. |
