Positive space painting

Dear Little Atelier Families,

I prepared Little atelier children's all-time favorite art activity.
It is a sort of printing techniques, but I am not sure about the exact name of this technique, so I named it Positive Space Painting. Let's start.

<Supplies>

• Printed-out templates (see attached templates) - when you print it out, you can enlarge the scale if it is too small. The files are dinosaurs, unicorn, and bunny.​

• Paper for painting (construction paper or any paper thicker than copy paper)
• Paint (any kind)
• Brushes or cotton balls 
• Scotch tape

​<Direction>

1. Print out the templates.

2. Cut out the positive space.

3. Secure the template on the painting paper. 

***Please prepare step 1~3 beforehand for younger children. If older children can cut out by themselves, they can try. 

4. Have children freely paint on it with brushes or cotton balls for dabbing technique.

5. Gently separate the template and voila~! 
    (I mean...just refer the idea. Of course, the children's works will be much more interesting
​     and dynamic.)
​    Enjoy~!
