Chinese finger painting.


It is a  traditional Chinese painting and  we drew cherry blossom, very common in Chinese ink painting.We use a  special type of  ink called  as  Chinese ink which are available at art stores.usually, for this method of  drawing, we use brush, but in this workshop we used our own fingers.Rice papers are used as  base paper to colour..But as we had  already tried on rice paper before, this time we tried  doing on paper plates.May be when you don't get Chinese ink we can try with normal ink too.Draw  the stems first with some gap and add bunches of  cherry blossom and  buds in the gap.We need to add nodes to along the  branches.

It is laways fun when you join in with your  kids.I saw  a toddler painting with his mother.It also provides  bonding time  with your kid.Never think, it is  too early to start art and  craft activities with your kids.
