Materials:
☐ A family member or friend,
☐ watercolor paper (9x12 cut in half),
☐ marker or pencil,
☐ watercolor paint,
☐ brush,
☐ Optional: Painter’s tape
Directions:
Sit across from your subject (you can both do this at the same time).
Put your paper on a hard surface like a book, clipboard, or sit at a table.
Draw the other person’s portrait without lifting the pencil off the paper AND without looking at the paper.
It should NOT be a perfect drawing! It is more fun if you follow the drawing instructions.
Optional: Use the painter’s tape to tape the paper down to an “art-proof” surface - magazine, newspaper, any paint-friendly surface. Try to cover the margins evenly. It does not have to be perfect.
Use your watercolors to paint in the shape spaces.
